I thank sphyn>< for the blatant instruction, and I take comfort in finally figuring it out just before reading sphyn><'s post. Rolling Eyes Smile

Thanks all for the hints.


Amazingly, I got 5 very quickly, and am now some way through 6 (which appears to be a multiparter).


Frankie...

On level 5, I have as of yet no idea what's missing...


Hint:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
What's supposed to be there? You have to know what should be there to know what's missing


Hard Nudge:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Get a point of comparison. Google image search.


A little more help:

Cheers, I got it about an hour ago, looking at it in Photoshop, when I suddenly thought, 'Hang on mate, this looks a bit dodgy!'!

Thanks Sphyn! Very Happy

It was a word I didn't know (since English isn't my native language)... Embarassed

At the moment I'm trying to figure out level 6b; let's hope that this time it's a word I DO know! Laughing

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
(Already tried inversion, addition, subtraction, transposition, comparison, squaring, division, and factoring/factorisation)

For 6a:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Well, look at the numbers of the sign... Looks like math...
It's not substraction, not addition, not inversion...


I'm stuck at 6b, so I can't help you there. Sad

Google will help you, but not the maps. What is being done, and what is being used to do it?

Ok I am stuck on 6b too. On the cerebral-x forum for this riddle they keep talking about cheating. I think that's a clue but I don't get it. I tried
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Square root, square route
along with all the other math terms I can think of. I also googled for that highway sign but can't find it. I do know that Ashby, Barrette are towns in Minnesota. That is a Minnesota highway sign.

Help!

RE: Level 6

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
the cheating was going to roadsignmath.com, which is where the images come from.
