Q43
...another grovelling request...

The supplicant returns, still playing catch-up, but finding himself stumped... again...

"AD" 73391 ...

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

I think I get to 15 Dec 2008 ... and reading all I can find on the 'net suggests a word, but it isn't Monday and I can't find another suitable descriptor... am I looking in the wrong place? (I'd previously gotten to 30 Nov 2008, but then realised I needed to knock out the 00's and leave in the 400's so had to add 15 days ...)

There is some math that's a little tricky, but the answer will be a little more current. Wink

Q50

It's solved!!! Adventure broke through followed closely by myself. It was a team effort and took a lot of time and sweat. Congrats to Adventure! This was an incredible puzzle. WIQ can really make some good ones. But they are going to get tougher.

Yeah, I know what's missing, it just didn't come through when I copy/pasted. Still, I am so so stuck. Any hints to where I should begin?

Q50

I wrote to WIQ about a problem I had, and they sent this answer:

About the verification: there is a very low probability that the random generated (wrong) number is (by chase) the correct number.
And be careful! Under certain circumstances your variants of the question may change - so always verify the question data before submitting an answer.

Best regards,
WIQ

When you log out and then back in, you need to recheck the questions to see if your answers still match. Just one more trick of theirs.

Q50

Since the last days I got some Website not found at the top of some WIQ sites (where the google ads should be).

One of the Q50 pages also just shows a "Website not found" (propably alos just some google ads). Is this a problem for me - I mean is there an important clue on this website?

Even though I found the Text, I still have not understand the concept of Update and Verify. What happens if I just put something into a box and press return?

Missing ads...

Think they've been having a few problems with the ads over the past few days (I haven't seen them for the past 4 or 5 days across any number of different browsers - had a note from the good folks at WoIQ saying they were having some problems...)

There is indeed one page (5.2) with ads only. There are no clues on that page, so it's not a problem it doesn't load for you.

After putting in the answers of one part and pressing submit, below the answer scheme will appear a box with one quarter of a binary number. If you want to be sure if this number is correct, you have to verify it. After clicking verify, it will tell you if the answers are correct or not.

Note: You can submit (and verify) more parts at once.

Q42

Divide it into words and make numerical associations with those words. I think you have to do something with the numbers, but that's all I can remember right now. Maybe that's all the clue you need.

Q42

R&R...a bit more if you need it...

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

I suspect you'll need to use the numbers on their respective sources as well...
