Yup, it looks a tad rubbish at the moment.

Well, I've just solved my first card. Four points to me!

In the process, I accidentally put in a typo when I first typed the card code, and got the error message "This card is locked - you've tried to solve this card too many times today or you entered an invalid card code." - so I guess that's the answer. Not sure how many chances you get though...



I've got that regardless of what I've typed in.

As I am about to put in the solve for Cracked Crackers, it looks like each card has it own input page, for example, for this one, you have 10 questions, which have a drop down box next to them with all the possible answers, and then you just have to select them.

Hahaha, the text for number #079 is:

"Did you solve this? Don't lie just because we can't check properly..."

There's a bug on the entry page for #139 this sentence is false - there's only input for one of the two solutions. I preusmed a second set of selectors would come up when I submitted the first but it just said congratulations...

Oh and I'm in the lead! For the one /and only/ time! Very Happy
(probly by the time I've typed this I'm not any more but I've a screengrab to prove it!)

I see you there at the top, congrats!

I'm taking my time with solving the cards, trying to do as many of them as possible without looking at the forums... Smile

I wonder if the new site signals that the next wave of cards is about to be released...

Thakns! I know it won't last long!

Likewise - I'm only currently entering ones I've solved and I'm pretty sure of (although I had problems with "Witch Script" and "Arrange My Lace Bits") - I'm only going to use the forums for help with cards I have /no-hope/ with such as musical notes related questions!!

I heard the next batch of cards definitely due this month, so fingers crossed!! Smile

I think that's the whole point of the silver panel - you can tell if someone's already entered the code.

Clever way to make us all have to collect all the cards!

Looks like the servers died under the load of all of the solutions... or they took them down to fix the broken stuff.
