Any hints for Traveler? Seems like I have traveled all over the site and beyond. Confused

Looks like they already started to change it: http://www.themastertheorem.com/the/master/list

 		waste of time imo. I'm still confused as to how I did it.

Code:
Just try messing around with the site.

 		That was a fail spoiler. It wasn't really a giveaway. Here's a real one:

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
It's like the Error Seal.


I figured out how I did it; I feel as if there is more than one way to get this seal.

 		hacker
got it too
Yeah, kind of dumb. It didn't take me more than a second to figure out once I saw that you mentioned it was a waste. I tried something lazy and it worked.

 		Worshippy

I still can't figure out the Traveler one let alone the new Hacker one. I bow to you all, and aspire to get to that point!

(any nudges if you are feeling generous are more than welcome) Dunce

Feel free to PM me as I am trying to learn all I can (better late ...)

Oi, care to help me out a bit? I've tried all the usual "messing around" (such as the way you get Not Found and Source)
I'm out of ideas now. =/

(this is epistemology btw)

First clue:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Don't waste your time with the source code. It's almost exactly like the Not Found seal except it's more... logical.


Second clue:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Start out from the fourth page.

*sigh* I'd been trying that on the home page and the actual seal's page the whole time. Damn.


Thank you very much! =]
And good luck with tonight's theorem, if you choose to solve it at midnight.

I just found it, but only after spending an unfruitful hour attempting to hijack the site code and insert my own userID into the "Found by" space on the Hacker seal page. I tend to over-think these things...

Suffice to say that finding the Hacker seal actually requires a great deal less "hacking" than Source, and only ever so slightly more than Not Found.

I agree. I spent over two hours trying that, and other things as well...

I really do love this site, but sometimes I get irritated when the solutions are so much simpler than I'd originally figured they'd be. It would be nice for there to be more seals that are actually challenging, not just ones that make you want to punch yourself in the face after you find them.

I would also like for M to do away with the seals you get for visiting the site on certain days. Those are rubbish, if you ask me. I don't mind visiting TMT daily, but I'm going crazy without new puzzles to solve.

He ought to at least post another like Recursion or Await The Hour. Those were so much fun!

 		Yet Another Macaroni Plate?
Speaking of holiday-linked seals, does anybody have any idea what day/time the "Yet Another Macaroni Plate" seal is referencing? Knowing M's penchant for anagrams, I've tried plugging the title into all sorts of anagram solvers to no avail. I get a lot of interesting words like "national," "month," "theorem," "encryption," "cypher," and others, but nothing seems to add up to an actual holiday.

Maybe I can just visit the site every day for the next month and hope I get lucky.
