Re: im stuck

36 is the one with a weather vane pointing in one direction, and a scale with an arrow pointing to one side.

I've been working on this all afternoon, and so far I've made it to 64 (the one with the iball). And I just know the answer is staring me in the face, no pun intended. Bang Head

ok, for #36

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
which direction is the wind blowing?

the arrow points to the side that isn't heavy


For #64

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Which one is (always) true, for everyone? (think riddly) Then type it in.

Re: #64

Yeah, I eventually just started typing 'em all in -- based upon that hint in the source code -- until I hit the one that worked. Still had no idea why it was the right answer... until I got to level 76. Then I felt really stupid. (Again. I hate this guy. Mr. Green )

So far the most annoying one has been the one with the house blueprints, because it took me forever to think to change the case on the file extension. I got up to level 85 before I couldn't tell whether it was the picture or my eyes that were out of focus. Maybe I'll take another look at it today.

OK.. what happens if you write "PIT" and remove the bottom

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
pit (cut the bottom off the letters) -> oit.html

Re-Check the url of this level then.

Hint 1:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Do you see any similarities to what is written on this page? Like .../rbd201/riddle...

Hint 2:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
You have to change the url to what is written on the page, except for the last line.

Hint 3:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Why are some letters written in uppercase and other letters not?


I'm still stuck on the one, where the pit monsters are right behind me. Any more hints for me on that one, please? It's level 15, the one right after i gout out of the pit.

Level 5 - More hints:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
/rbd201/riddle/ is the beginning of the url of level 5, right?

rbd201 and riddle are in their place then, but where do you put the life and star and "." ? Try to alter the url and don't forget those "/" slashes.

The extension of the filename has to be concluded from this:
hAVE
tHE
mOST
lUCK


(SPOILER!)Put everything together, and you will get / rbd201 / riddle / life / star . html (just without the spaces Wink ) to go to the next level.(/SPOILER!)

Someone has already hinted at this one earlier in the thread. Have you looked at the source code?

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
The answer is three words.

It's just a picture of a female. Something is hidden in it, though.

Can you make out any other appearances of those two words in the browser window?

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Especially one, that can be changed by you.
