"Hardest internet enigma"

http://www.frvade.com/

646107 people have tried it since it started in April '05. When I tried a month or so back, no one had finished it.

I like to consider myself a fairly smart guy, but I tried it and definitely only made it to level 5 or 6 before giving up.

PS - I think some on the net have collaboratively worked on it and might have found a solution, but that takes the fun out of it and I'm not even sure if they've completely solved it.

(Sorry if this is old news.)

Good luck:eek:

this is a huge ripoff of notpron. level one is exactly like level 2 of notpron and level 2 is just like level 3 of notpton.

edit- currently stuck on six

Yeah, it's a lot like notpron. But in his defense, he talks about notpron in the info section and credits it as his inspiration.
 
whoo! level 31! Most of these are too similar to notpron. I remember how to do them. I had to cheat on 30 though :redface:
 
Fancy picture.. great
