I am stuck at #13. I tried using 6 & 9 for G ...but it does not work. I am sure I have all 4 answers (1) G...(2)B* (3)B* (4)L*, but it seems it is not accepting.
And I'm sure I nailed first three but have no clue about the fourth. tried characters and numbers. Not sure if numbers should be attempted forward or reverse.
Don't waste your time on this stupid puzzle. #13 is just completely unfair. There are too many combinations (if the answer ends with '0' do add a '5' to form a plural or use a decimal point? Do you use '9' or '8' to represent 'b'?) Trying out all the possibilities is just not fun. And the 4th question is too much of a guessing game.
Can't seem to find a way into level 27, stuck at 26. Din't find anything in the source. Tried following addresses "ponandzi.aspx", "ponzi.aspx", "jefthomas.aspx", "azuzephre.aspx"... nothing seems to get me into level 27... Any hints???
I'm surprised no-one has yet pointed out that #15 does not work in FireFox 3 (I happen to know the answer and was confused that there seemed to be no way to enter it - until I switched to Safari.)
I got email confirmation but it says I didn't solve the puzzle exactly.. I guess I got the correct mail address but there's something missing. any hints?
nevermind. i did it. Conclusion: it has nothing to do with development. If you're lucky enough you might figure out that some of the letter are capitalized, some not, reverse them...
Lame!
var round = function(number){
var binary = number.toString(2);
var hex = number.toString(16);
var R = function(str){
return /^10*$/.test(str);
};
return R(binary) && R(hex);
};
That I wrote this just shows how special class I am... If a number is "round" in base-n that just means it's a power of n, and obviously all powers of 16 are also powers of 2.
View source, copy-paste to calc in bin mode, convert to hex, pair of 2 hex:
U: 69,68,65,61,72,74 and P: 73,6F,66,74,77,61,72,65
open an ASCII hex chart table and translate (61-79 is a-z lowercase):

View source, image is called wingdings.png, open WordPad, type a-z in lowercase in wingding font
match the image symbols, convert to arial, copy-paste.

"Take the first one each time. They'll get you the distance."
The author means take each page name and plug it into the leveinstein function,
you will get the word distance of 8, which is the number of words in:
"This is not the hint. Seriously stop checking."
it's 100 symbols without spaces, so email shouldn't be that long, so may be:
a) several cipher symbols mean 1 clear text symbol
or
b) you must skip some symbols
my interpretation of "if you throw a pi at the wall, does it break into chunks of two" - take pi value in binary like 11.00100100001111110110... and assume, that 1 means keep symbol, 0 means discard it, but that didn't produce meaningfull email :(
Such interpratation just shows, that hint is not clear enough, too much variations.
It's got to be some short text cause $_SERVER, phpinfo, getenv, and other variants don;t work.
