nooo. I am changing my other post. I think probably I wrote too fast and ended writing 38 whcih is similar to 36 and 8 is near to 6 so I didn't realize then. I'm in 36, that was why I wrote my three heads on the other post: to more significantly state that I reached this level. sorry I can't help you yommama, I'm now in your same place.

This isn't really a clue- on level 4, when you click the clock, a prompt should come up asking for a username and password. If the prompt doesn't come up, lower your security settings. (Since this happened to me and I figured it out, I think I should skip ahead a few levels ;)

I got to 8 pretty quick; but don't get that other screen / message. I'm not looking for pron (or porn for that matter :approve: ) I'm just not sure if someone formatting something has anything to do with it.

NE way, I quit. I spent too much time on it and it pissed me off.

And rahmuss, if you think you like this game so much that you won't quit, you're wrong. I thoguht I would make it to the end, i gave up by 36

Maybe; but I won't know until I try. I found the answer to 8, I just can't view it yet, so I'll have to wait.
 
  • #79

okay, i put twix backwards in the url, but it gives me a page that just tells me I'm "too new" :mad: :mad:

There is a hint that says "times have changed in Deutschland."

Do some research on Twix and Germany. Best I can say.

Now, in the meantime, I am absolutely SLAMMED on 23. I found one hidden message, but I'll be damned if I can figure out the answer.

I deciphered the first part and I am on the "second" part...the "small portion of your screen" page, and from here, I have NO clue where to go. Even with the given clues. I've tried everything. Recoloring, zooming, etc etc etc.

I don't even understand level 1.

EDIT: Oh right. I was on the main Deathball page.
