you're a girl, speedy? all along i thought otherwise :cool:

hmmmm yeah, is THE part of the solution too? it's also capitalized lol
 
  • #2,013
uh i just wrote "THE" there for a while because i noticed in the logs that someone had tried to get to the Gridimage and forgot the "THE".. though i have changed so you will get to that image even without the "THE"..

boxcutter: okay there. how about another round of hint? any change in the source code is alrighty with me. :biggrin:

michael: yeah, but i kinda like the idea that everybody thinks I am a boy. its funny. :devil: :biggrin:

and oh, i think you know one of my friends-- hedges. shhhh... :wink:
 
  • #2,015
shucks.. I'm leaving now and i wasn't too much help..

i used the letter conversion on the capitalized letters (14 rounds already and still no readable or anagrammatic word)

:confused: another clue somewhere perhaps?
 
  • #2,016
hey reggie, i need another pad of paper! can you hand me over half of yours? :-p

my letters are all a mess. I am getting really weary about this. we got cursed again. :cry:
 
  • #2,017
hehe.. me too.. will be writing on walls soon.

However, I feel the mini-grid seems to be a kind of a key to the real map which is the main grid.

But I'm not exactly able to figure how..
 
  • #2,018
i did something with that and i somehow got a phrase but its not it. should i stop thinking about the 'x' thing?

im word hunting at this point

edit: i knda forced that one out but it had a pattern

Has anyone gotten further than 61 yet ? :)
 
  • #2,022

  • #2,023
don't worry zarii, we don't want to leave this level without you. just like #56 remember? so far i have nothing. that phrase i got was ridiculous, don't even bother. its garbage.

okey :P

Hmm..we have the capital letters.. maybe we should go by them in aphabetical order or something?
 
  • #2,025
i tried that once before but it all leads me to asking myself, "then what?"

the capital letters must be in order. and there's a double letter in the answer. the problem now is how do we use these grids? aaaaaargh!

Haha okej.. well then, good
 
  • #2,031
For number 58, I'm still missing the first and sixth letters; if I can get just one more letter I'm certain I can get it. those questions are so ambiguous though...
 
  • #2,032
ffutahw,
How many years of bad luck do you get when you brake something that gives you a reflection of yourself? [/color]
 
  • #2,033
zarii: can you perceive this as a board game? the big one being the board and the small one being the dice. i can't quite get to what i want to do. :confused: :confused:
 
  • #2,034
That's seems very random to me
 
  • #2,035
hmm... tougher than I thought. I must have one of these wrong.
 
  • #2,036
Speedy me leaving right now.. I've PMed you something.. check and let me know what u think.. quick
 
  • #2,037

  • #2,038

LOL Do you see in your logs all of our wrong tries? You probably :smile: when you read them!

Btw, that "DarnYouBoxcutter.htm" wasn't mine! :biggrin:

Just wanted to bounce the ones I have for 58 off of you guys, let me know if any of these are flat out wrong...

<
1) his reflection was shattered...
7: With Zariis assistance, seven years of bad luck for breaking a mirror

2) count the winds...
4: The four winds, north, south, east, west.

3) the wounds of our savior...
5: The wrists, the ankles, and the side.
Note: Trying 6 and 7 here as well to see if the crown of thorns and the whipping of the back are included. Generally is considered 5.

4) Optsprezece
18- Romanian for eighteen, simple.

5) It is perfect and the smallest of its kind...
1- going with 1 here, don't know what else it would be.6) If you throw me away, this burden will be lifted.
Not a damned clue.

7) misfortune.
13- thirteen is an/the unlucky number.[/color]>

Am I flat out wrong on any of these?
