level 15 hint

Don't worry, I had the same problems and frustration. I'm crying over level 69 at the moment, I have no idea how it works.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

The source has a clue, the (D > Q) is telling you something about the different keyboards.

It's a vague hint, let me know if you need more help. Cheers

Here's the mechanism to decode.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

Red is D>Q you have to use the different keyboards to decode. Dvorak to Qwerty.

Good Luck

Level 6 hint

sad_bot, I'm checking my notes (more like scribbles).

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

I think that the souce gives you the clue "go to the next image." The next image is next in the series, so oldoak-a goes to ?????

Let me know if you need more help.

sad_bot

Your welcome, I'm happy to pass on some of the help that I got.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

The original page source code has another clue "There is an imaginary picture somewhere." You'll need both of the new pages to decode the information.

levle 15 hint

kimeeexx

I'm wondering what information you are trying to decode.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

There are two words one red (D>Q) and one green (Q>D), you have to find where they are. I can give you a bigger hint if you need it, keep trying.

Level 69

That's a hard level. I don't think I managed to work out all of the sequences but I got enough to guess the solve.

I found it helpful to note down the size of the gaps between the numbers, the size of the gaps between the size of the gaps, etc. and see if any patterns developed. I've just read that back and it's probably harder to understand than the puzzle!

There was definitely more to that level than I managed to solve. Would be interested in a full disection of that one...

level 69 thanks - level 70 help request

GreenWindmill

Thanks for the reply, I finally got three of the sequences 1, 2 and 4. I understand 1 and 4 but not 2 (Googled it). I used a crossword puzzle solver to give me some suggestions and found the answer.

Potential level 70 spoilers

Spoiler (Rollover to View):

I'm stuck on 70. Not sure what bottom is, I think strength is the number of bars on the second page. I have no idea what the color is about. I thought lambda or wavelength was just length (as described on the second page) but I'm wondering if length and color are tied together?

Any suggestions? Thanks in advance, Fredo
