I'm pondering why are there 2 extra white pawns.
ReplyDeleteHaHa me too @khandi .. I will be the one the others carry to the finish! LOL
ReplyDeleteHope you're not a big load to bear michjean!!
ReplyDeleteWell, other than 4 pawns, I don't see anything unusual. It would be silly to consider it a real game to think of movements and so.
Question is, how to pick letter out of that? Only possible thing for me (until something proves me wrong) is to take these positions to another place. Maybe to another 8x8 grid we've had in the game? Really hope it's not the case though.
@edgar, I have tried that already. Use the proverb line. Use both the C**** M***** + the proverb line. Fill the grid with a-z from top down, and from bottom up, horizontally and vertically.
ReplyDeleteI have also tried using A7=A, A7=17=Q, A7=A+7=8=H.
ReplyDeleteAlso tried counting the pieces, b****=8 6 0 0 1 1 0 0
w**** = 0 2 0 0 0 0 8 8
Also tried dit-dah.
I have also tried k*******.
ReplyDeleteCounted every letter in the proverb, expecting to have 64 characters long. Nope...
ReplyDeletelol Ruff! You've used every trick in the book!
ReplyDeleteI made it up to 64 by adding the C**** M***** and the end period. I know it doesn't fit well but who knows.
ReplyDeleteSo I see a few of you are still on 46. I seem to have tried what you all have. okay more digging
ReplyDeleteI'm leaving this level until someone or kaankanat has left a good hint. Good night!
ReplyDelete'Night Ruff!~ I will check now and again until bedtime, but it would take a miracle for me to get the breakthrough!
ReplyDelete@michjean, sometimes we need to take a break and have our minds refreshed before we can think in a whole new direction. Good luck, hope you'll find the answer for us.
ReplyDeleteNite Ruff.
ReplyDeleteBut he did leave a good hint...
"Find the odd ones and try (my vague way) to get letters. Anagram then"
@edgar, I have tried everything I can think of already, including going to the rule page. I bet we all have tried all our tricks, haven't we?
ReplyDeleteWe have Ruff. Idk what else to try...
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteseems I'm the only one in here.
ReplyDeleteSeems like all ideas are tried. as i have nothing to add.
@Edgar are you sure the 2nd one stands for division? The numbers are 3 and 2. So 3/2=1,5
ReplyDeleteGood morning. So we are still on 46 an running out of ideas, great. I hope fresh mind will help.
ReplyDelete@fairuzaf are you on lvl 7? second one is a +
ReplyDelete@chipsi really? Thanks!
ReplyDeleteYUHUUUU! Just passed lvl 7 haha
ReplyDeletelvl 8 isn't easy
ReplyDeletelvl 46 new hint from kaankanat on nord:
ReplyDeleteYou need 8 letters. then anagram
tried so many ways to find letters but nothing is usefull. What we really need is a hint how to find them!!!!
ReplyDeleteGood morning. (At least it's morning where I am) Okay - no progress on 46 while I slept.
ReplyDeleteSo if we need 8 letters I'm guessing that each row or column represents a letter (since there are 8). And the question still remains - how to convert each row/column into a letter. I already tried b***** but that didn't seem to work.
Oh - another possibility...there are 4 odd ones - each represented by a letter/number - so maybe each pair is a letter (e.g. A1 is one letter)
ReplyDeleteA hint from Adventure posted on GH:
ReplyDelete"4 odd ones, 4 positions, 8 letters.
Letters are just the letters.
Think about how you can convert the numbers to letters. Basic riddle method."
I still can't get it though.
46 saw hint left by kaan on nord also a hint from tynka
ReplyDelete"use coords, you need a different kind of language for numbers..."
Off to work on it
does anyone have a link to a good anagram solver. I didnt bookmark mine and cant find it
ReplyDeletedont quite get. 4#s can see but only 3 letters
ReplyDeleteMy understanding is that we would already have 4 of the letters and we get the other 4 by converting the numbers. But I could be mistaken.
ReplyDeleteHere are two anagram solvers I often use:
http://anagram-solver.net/
http://wordsmith.org/anagram/
Yes I think your right @ khandi. And thanks for the link
ReplyDeleteHi all :) Only have a few minutes, but I'm not seeing anything on 44. :( I took it to GIMP and rightclick-filters-animation-playback, but I only get 2 frames and when I press step it doesn't seem to have a difference. So I waited and took the second part "Notes" and it has two frames as well, still not seeing anything. So I guess I have my 4 pages, but have no clue what to take.
ReplyDeleteBTW, I was so close on 43 yesterday. I thought for sure it was an f22, but alas I gave up a little early.
anyone here?
ReplyDelete@mk on each frame look carefully to the left hand side of text and you will notice letters. There are 2 sets to look for
ReplyDelete@mk switch between frames to notice
ReplyDeletehmm...thanks for answering @maxhug.
ReplyDeleteIs it maybe because I copy/pasted it instead of saving it? Seems odd if that would be the case. I see nothing, but will keep trying. Thanks again. :)
omg...that IS it!
ReplyDeleteFor future riddlers: 44, make sure to save the file, do NOT copy/paste into your photo manipulation program b/c you won't see the difference even though you will have more than one frame.
Hint posted on gamers for 46
ReplyDeleteWhat alternate English alphabet also make usage of numbers?
"What alternate English alphabet also makes usage of numbers?"
ReplyDeleteI have been working on alphabets that use numbers that also represent letters but didn't get letters that help make a word.
What's an alternate English alphabet??
Just joining here. Hello to all. Now on 46 2nd part.
ReplyDelete@ khandi. I found the alphabet by googling the hint I posted. Found other letters but when anagrammed word I got doesnt work. So I'm thinking it is 2 or more word answer
ReplyDelete@maxhug77 - is it 1**7? I can't find any others...
ReplyDeletebtw when you post a comment, does any body else's page go right back to the first 100 comments?
I see you are still on 46 part1, It's leet.
ReplyDelete@faltu I know its leet but cant get right word. I got b*t*b*t*.
ReplyDelete@faitu - Hello to you too. Please, please give another hint to find the right alphabet for 46 part 1.
ReplyDelete@maxhug - I also googled the hint but that didn't show me anything useful.
You use two letters for 7.
ReplyDeleteOkay got it. Thanks for the hint @faltu.
ReplyDelete@khandi. It is the Leet alphabet and ps. One of the numbers can be used for 2 different letters ie. 9 = F or K
Thank you faltu!! I had been using leet but didn't pay attention that 7 can be two different numbers - no wonder I thought I was using the wrong thing!
ReplyDeleteOnto 46 part 2
You are welcome @Maxhug and @Khandi. Now help at part2. It's knight's move and knight is at b1 and king at e8, I wonder if we have to find 8 letters again.
ReplyDeleteHint posted on Nord "you need to beat a king"
ReplyDeleteso thinking we need to look for a king who is dead given the words in middle 2 rows
5 letters only
ReplyDeleteback again and on 46b with you
ReplyDelete47. net connection is disturbing, cannot play much.
ReplyDeletereading up on gameplay is mind boggling. moving 2x1 is annoying.
ReplyDeleteAny hint to the first letter to get me on my way
@maxhug common word. 1st letter is f. Cannot play much today, 47 should be easy, but cannot see anything.
ReplyDeleteThanks @ Faltu onto 47
ReplyDeletejumping like mad on the chessboard, how many letters are we supposed to find?
ReplyDelete@maxhug I am not taking note of the answers, can you please mail me the answers of 14 and 29? Or two home addresses at 15 and 30?
ReplyDeletePOP got it
ReplyDeletenvm got them
ReplyDelete47
ReplyDeleteNot many clues to figure level out level 47. Found Highlighted clue and googling like crazy the text. but not sure what I'm suppose to look for?
on47 there are hidden letters in the picture
ReplyDeleteHi Chipsi, I zoomed on thepic, but don't find any hidden letters. Where is it? Playing with brightness contrast also gave nothing.
ReplyDeleteI downloaded it from the start page (don`t know if this matters) used GIMP and played with contrast and brightness (pushed both to the right)
ReplyDeleteIf you don`t get it, tell me and I upload it.
Thank you chipsi, actually there is nothing in level pic. Now I get it.
ReplyDeleteOn 48, thank you again @Chipsi.
ReplyDelete@faltu help me please, still wondering about the messages in picture
ReplyDeleteokay, I still don't know what to do with lvl 8 -.-'
ReplyDeletePOP got it, it`s POP-day for me today
ReplyDeleteOn 48.
ReplyDeleteFor 47 you have to use GIMP. I tried another photo editor and it didn't work.
@Chipsi find a word which has not been used till now.
ReplyDeleteI know the cipher, what to decode here?
ReplyDeleteUgh... Still stuck on lvl 8.
ReplyDeleteThe glass faces to left. Is the answer related with the answer on lvl 7?
is there anything in picture of lvl48? GIMP asks me if I like to convert to RGB or not because of iMac? Don`t know what this means and couldn`t find anything in picture, yet.
ReplyDelete@fairuza, yes it is, adding letters helps
ReplyDeletecant find anything in google about hidden text? is it an anagram because nothing good comes of that either.
ReplyDelete@faltu said "I know the cipher, what to decode here?"
ReplyDeleteI'm wondering the same thing.
I think I know the code, the highlighted text could be the key but where is the thing to decode
ReplyDelete@chipsi is the answer : answer from lvl 7 + ray? I've tried it but I got nothing
ReplyDeleteI am trying u****** as key word and text to decode and vice versa but nothing so far.
ReplyDelete@chipsi I didn't find anything in the picture.
yuhuuu. passed lvl 8!
ReplyDelete@fairuzaf don`t forget to anagram!!
ReplyDeletelvl 48 googling names seperatly brings me to christoper vogler and albus dumbledore :)
I tried every possible word as keyword but nada.
ReplyDeletehave to leave now, see you tomorrow and good luck!!!!
ReplyDeleteI googled seperate and got Albus Dumbledore and Arnold Vogler which both are from HP although we were given Volger and not Vogler.
ReplyDeleteStil stuck az heck on 48
48 I have no idea where to start.
ReplyDelete1st. dont know what Im looking for
2nd. wont know cipher til I find what to decode.
3rd Dont have any clue to what pic means.
having a dumb moment
I think I know what to decode and the cipher but still cannot find the answer, Bye for today, will try tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteGot a hint from Tymka on Nord:
ReplyDelete"find another screen or pic - doesn't matter"
so I'm trying to find another pic in the level using methods we've tried before but not working so far.
@khandi opposite to find another one.
ReplyDeleteare the numbers on lvl 9 related to the ASCII codes?
ReplyDelete@fairuzaf yes, they are ascii.
ReplyDelete@faltu - What do you mean by opposite? Earlier I tried changing the 1 to a 2 (and that didn't work). So to do the opposite I tried going the other way - changing the 1 to a 0 and/or deleting it.
ReplyDeletegreat to see others are making progress for 48. As for me none of the hints posted are helping.
ReplyDeleteopposite of the pic name. I know what to decode but stiil something is going wrong for me.
ReplyDeleteOk bye for today, solve 48 and leave some hints.
ReplyDeleteyay finally found 48b. Google and find what the opposite of U******* is and you should get a word starting with M
ReplyDeleteAny hints on what c***** to use?
ReplyDeleteI've tried ROT 13, got nothing... (lvl 10)
ReplyDeleteI thought it be Caesar or sub cos of pic.
ReplyDeleteHello All! Just went straight to catching up instead of posting useless comments.
ReplyDeleteNow I have problem, Level 47. Pic into GIMP asks about converting to RGB... should I put pic in GIMP? Do I have to put pic in GIMP? Can I just get the answer to riddle? HeeHee
Hi michjean. You do need to use GIMP but make sure you view the correct image. Note the hint "home, sweet home". The image that appears on the level page won't work ;) You'll need to play with the contrast.
ReplyDeleteGive me hints for lvl 10 please... I've tried the caesar codes but got nothing
ReplyDelete@michjean, for level 47 (and with a little gamma bright):
ReplyDeleteClick here to see the hidden text in Home Pic
Duh! Finally...
ReplyDelete@fairuzaf,
ReplyDeleteGo to Purple Hell and use ROT cipher.
For level 48. Use Bifid cipher.
ReplyDeleteWew... pic on lvl 12 is creepy LOL
ReplyDeleteFinally onto Level 49. Why are most of the levels in this riddle far more complicated (than I feel) necessary?
ReplyDeletelvl 13 *headbanging
ReplyDeleteany hint for lvl 13?
ReplyDeleteEdgar!! You are Dear!
ReplyDeleteSlight problem getting to 48b. Found opposite but put in as M******** and with #1 & #2 in both htm & jpg but nothing.
@fairuzaf - that was so many levels ago - what is it about or what is on your screen?
ReplyDelete@michjean 2009 Calender. with 'e' not 'a'.
ReplyDelete@michjean - what you have should work with the 1. Maybe check spelling???
ReplyDelete@michjean, wasn't near to read and now have to go for longer. Your m... word should work to give you the thing to decode.
ReplyDeleteGotto go. See you and good luck there.
@fairuzaf - Google Fr**** 13th + fear (it's the name of the fear of that particular date)
ReplyDelete@khandi - thanks.. the story of my life on this riddle - misspelling
Is it just me, or does it seem like there are just more steps to each level, and the steps aren't really making much sense?
@Edgar - Bye! and thanks again!!
ReplyDelete@fairuzaf, sorry if not helping enough. And sorry for misleading you in that other level with the math. I told you #2 was division. Well, I never meant to say the 'second number' but literally the 'number 2'
ReplyDeleteAnyway, a little piece of advise for you. Read the comments. More than enough help is there.
arrgh. I got the letters ALANQRUQ for level 48 but not anagramming
ReplyDelete@Edgar well, sorry for making you fell bad. It's my fault. Thanks btw!
ReplyDelete@michjean okay, thanks!
@maxhug - get rid of the z (I made the same mistake)
ReplyDelete@maxhug- and no need to anagram... just use the Bifid from PH and enter letters from 48b
ReplyDeletethanks guys. Got it.
ReplyDeleteOkay thats all for me till 2moro.
Enjoy and Happy Easter
49 - so far
ReplyDelete-Quote from Heroux and hidden hint to url ending
-W** W*****1 from pictitle
Googled and got so much that I have a headache LOL
huh, I really need to sleep. Bye all! Thanks for helping me
ReplyDeleteYW @fairuzaf :)
ReplyDeleteI'm off for a bit... last minute shopping (must get the giant peanut butter filled chocolate easter egg) BBL
Hello everyone!
ReplyDelete@faltu, thanks for leet hint.
Got an egg in level 49. Look for diseases.
ReplyDelete@edgar, there you are! Everytime when I'm about to log off, you arrive.
ReplyDelete49, I have been staring at my 5 pics and googling like crazy for a long long time.
lvl 50 now.
ReplyDeleteGood job, @edgar!
ReplyDeleteHi Ruff :)
ReplyDeleteAnd as annoyingly usual, NOTHING standing as a clue for 50 :(
ReplyDeleteI'm still staring at my 5 weapons trying to figure out their relationship with diseases.
ReplyDeleteHonestly, I want to quit not. It's not fun getting stuck every other level.
* now
ReplyDeleteRuff, wiki helped me... ICD-10
ReplyDeleteFound the egg page. Thanks @edgar. :hug:
ReplyDeletelvl 50. Idk how to solve this one, and looking at the stored cookies gives seemingly nothing. Hmm....
ReplyDeleteI'm back and stuck. Have 5 pics. 4M's & 1G. Looked at Edgar's hint and looked and looked and still don't get it. Is there another hint to push me in the right direction?
ReplyDelete@michjean, use initial letter of diseases in the list to make a (not anagrammed) word.
ReplyDeleteI feel dizzy looking at the egg. The most obvious thing suggested by the extension does not work.
ReplyDeleteRuff, the egg page spells the straight answer.
ReplyDeleteConnect these ///
Late hints:
ReplyDelete@michjean, make sure you use the correct (hidden) extension.
@Ruff, word in egg page is backwards.
WOW! My eyes are hurting!
ReplyDeleteThanks @edgar. 50 now.
ReplyDeleteThe extension was confusing me. I tried to type b****y.
Don't thank, Ruff. Could you solve lvl 50 for me instead? :P
ReplyDeleteI opened in Gimp and zoomed out to 25%. Am I looking at the dark or light areas for letters?
ReplyDeleteI have something like 7 of them (I think). There is no word jumping out at me.
Honestly? no idea...
ReplyDelete@Edgar - How in the world did you manage to find that wiki page? Even now knowing that's what I needed I have no idea how one would know to look for it.
ReplyDeleteA big thanks and onto 50.
Hi! I'm back for a short while. Spent some time catching up and now I'm staring at the dark side pic on lvl 50! Thanks for the help from chessplay and onwards!
ReplyDeletenvm - that was a toughie for me... but onto 50...
ReplyDeleteWell @khandi, a great number of levels in this riddle is not about solving, but mad guessing (which is not fun at all). So, I guess (again) a lucky guess did it-- but I did google for lots of stuff before!
ReplyDeleteGot milk?? HeeHee.. Sorry, I could not resist that one!
ReplyDeleteLevel 50. I know who's said that. No idea what else to do.
ReplyDeleteDo you like my new profile picture?
ReplyDeleteFor me, ICD-10 is everyday work, so not that hard figuring out what was needed, but still took me some time. @Michjean, I made the same mistake as I think you did on that pic... took a while to try it backwards. And now, another lvl with some imagination needed it seems. Not my strongest part.
ReplyDeleteLol @ruff, it's nice with changes (says the one that will remain a camel forever). They look cute and dangerous!
ReplyDeleteAwww @Ruff - that is adorable - and appropriate ;P
ReplyDeleteI know, they are cute, aren't they? Now want some cookies?
ReplyDeleteHad to be away for some minutes, but back now.
ReplyDeleteLOL your avatar @Ruff!
I'd love to have some cookies, but hesitate to come to the dark side. Feels quite good here.
ReplyDeleteWhat to do??? I'm googling the sentence, and I KNOW I shouldn't google at all!
ReplyDelete@Ellie - backwards was not my problem (I'm always backwards - haha) I just couldn't really "see them" without bright and contrast LOL
ReplyDeleteWhy is 50 so hard? I'm taking a break for a bit... this shouldn't be this hard.
(Level 50) Playing with the pic in GIMP gives me some colours on some of the letters but I can't make out anything.
ReplyDelete@khandi, sounds good. I'm not good enough with GIMP to find something like that yet.
ReplyDeleteOh, @Khandi, I think I see the colors now too. Looks like there is something hidden behind the text. I wish I knew how to work with this.
ReplyDeleteLevel 51 now.
ReplyDeleteKudos to @MishuAnubis at Nordinho.
For 50, look for another pic in s*****.
image manipulating... :(
ReplyDeleteFound a message in the background pick! Not the best settings yet, but i see it with lights on 12 and contrast on 4 in GIMP!
ReplyDeleteFor 50, look for the 2nd pic. Use Gimp Threshold #1.
ReplyDeleteGreat Ruff!! Will try to get it then... I think it's not source what you mean..
ReplyDelete51 for me too!
ReplyDeleteI can't remove layers ... do not know how. I can see colors behind right side letter and , ... but do not how to get at them. Anyone?
ReplyDelete@michjean, do you have PhotoScape? I found it easier there than in GIMP. Just open the pick and go to threshhold and it's right there.
ReplyDeleteOtherwise, play with GIMP... don't have to remove layers but play with threshhold or lights/contrast.
@michjean, open the picture with Gimp. Click Colour-Threshold-Preset #1.
ReplyDeleteAnd, forget about the colors behind those letters. That's not the pick to use, but open the background pic instead... it's all black.
ReplyDeleteI have to make dinner now. Be back later to deal with the b** c*** of 51.
ReplyDelete51 finally!
ReplyDeleteThankyouthankyouthankyou!!! I'm a dumbass :(
Oh Ruff!! You can't leave now!! You are the gimp-image-layers-remover in the team!!
ReplyDeleteDarn! It's precisely image manipulating what have made me quit other riddles before...
ReplyDeleteThanks to those who left the hint about using threshold. I'm a GIMP novice and didn't even know about the existence of that function.
ReplyDeleteQuitting for tonight. Tried to draw the bars and convert them, but the tools seem to be picky about width (and I probably forgot some) lol. Kaankanat posted that he might make the pic clearer tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteWell, I don't know how to get the code out of that pic in 51. If there's a way to do it, it's way beyond me. Will take a break too, and will ponder if it's worth coming back to "solve" some more. Fun with playing this one has been progressively fading away...
ReplyDeleteHello all! I am very much stuck at 50. Tried image manipulation with gimp as ruff said, but for me the letters only become hazy, I do not see any new pic or anything new. Please help.
ReplyDelete@faltu, it's the black background picture the one you need to use, not the one with the text.
ReplyDeleteThank you Edgar for your help, but using gimp and setting threshhold to 1 only gives me hazy text no black background.
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDelete@faltu, did you find the 2nd picture. Check s***** and search png.
ReplyDeleteI am not able to do my background completely black there is always some text however hazy, please help.
ReplyDelete@faltu, emailed you. Let me know if it still doesn't work. I'll email you the modified image.
ReplyDeleteOh. Thank you Ruff I didn't know I have to find a second pic from source> From above comments I thought I have to manipulate the first one to find second one.
ReplyDeletefaltu, right-click on the background of the level page (not on the picture with the text); select View Background. Differently to other levels, this one has 2 pics in it. One of them is the infamous background pic.
ReplyDelete@faltu, I clicked outside of the text image in the level. Click to the right of it and select "view backgound image", You should have a completely black picture called something like "thezodiacisstillthere".
ReplyDeleteThats the one to take to a editing program.
Ruff, thanks for the explanation how to extract the bar code. I'll try it tomorrow. No more riddling for me tonight.
ReplyDeletehi @edgar & @ellie. Do you want to try extracting the code using my method or do you want me to email you my image?
ReplyDeleteGood night, @ellie.
ReplyDeleteNow I can see the text, Thank you Edgar and Ruff for all your help. Have To anagram the capitals?
