What was 40 again? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
niiiiice! thank you! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I meant 28 actually. The screen saver one. 40 was the one that was similar. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I tried .zip when i first got there but it didn't work am I doing something wrong? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Use the image filename with .zip, not the htm document. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
do have a link to a translator for the next part of it? All the ones I have found seem to differ. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I've been trying to decode this for way too long! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ok, i'm stuck on the screensaver one, i think i have the right answer cos it asks me if i want to download a file (screensaver) but then i don't know what to do with it, i've opened it up and it's just a screensaver! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
What is it doing? it is a stark contrast to the sunny picture. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I have worked out that I have the name of a ancent astronimer of sorts. This has got to be the hardest one so far! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
wtf....i tried the same word before and it didn't work...but it works now....i know i definately tried it cos it was still in my browsers cache. could have been around the time the site went down yesterday. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
if you enter the name (as you know it is in english) you should get a clue |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I think I have tried every possable combination and learned more about the Rosetta Stone than anyone really needs to know. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Well, the symbols are egyptian heiroglyphs. should help you translate them, to be sure you got the name right. You should end up with the name of an ancient Egyptian mathematician. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
help... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I have his name P*****S but can't get any further. I've been googling like a bstard |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The first three symbols translate as PTO and there ain't many ancient Egyptian mathematicians who's name starts with Pto :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Enter the English spelling of his name and it'll tell you to spell it in Greek, so you just look up the Greek translation. I'm pretty sure it was Greek anyway. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I did a search with "what I'd translated" AKA and stumbled on it, that was just silly! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
The next couple are dead easy, but then you get the nightmares of 52 and 53, and later 57. Those were real buggers. Good luck! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
stuck again....level 37 now, got sum clue 'what radio station' or something but i just don't geddit |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Check the picture filename for level 37 and see what other pictures you might be able to find... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It is obvious. I went in completely the wrong derection on that one. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
51 check mate, hmmm it looks like the board is going left to right rather than up and down does this have anything to do with this one? hint please? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I am looking for fools mate etc. I am really coming up with blanks on this one! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
If the board looks the wrong way round I guess its an accident. Think about chess positions notation and where pieces are when a game starts. And then, once again, look at what you work out and think geek. The ease of a lot of levels hinge on geekishness. Its as well to look at clues from an IT/internet perspective. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
That has cofused me more am I right to think that the queens bishops are at c1 and c8? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yep that's right. So looking at that notation, what else do those characters look like they might be...? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Googling now... hmmm perhaps a hint to help me reduce my search!!! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I got a no, I'm on the right path... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
another no.. grrr |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Which clues did you get in the no pages? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
now the obvious wont work, oh, the irony of my username! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
a1m0st |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I guess now you find out just how l33t you are :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
now that's confused me.... It's in geek speak isn't it? If only I hadn't had girlfriends and a life away from my computer I would get this... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
if you got a1m0st I guess you must've converted the chess notation into not binary :) so just translate the number you have from geekspeek into normal sensible english that people who have lives use. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
is there a dictionary somewhere? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Not really... l33t speak seems to be pretty much make-it-up-as-you-go-along. The basics are that you substitute numbers and symbols for letters based on what they look like. A bit. So for example 0 represents 'o', 1 represents 'L', 2 represents 'Z', 3 represents 'E', etc. |
||||||||

|
|
w00t 52 |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
my first thought for 52 was to overlay the image and then the correct letters would be pointed at..... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I just tried to translate what I thought the pics represented into spanglish. Didn't occur to me to overlay them on one another. Don't have the pic handy to try it out. Might have been easier if that gives a clue. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
did you do it as a process of elimination, trying different combinations? did it make sense in the end? clue.... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well, the pics are angels so I thought "hmm 'four angels'". the only obvious translation of angels I could think of was "angeles" which led me to "los angeles". So I tried that. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Also check out the image filename and think back to an earlier level. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I have the other one is it relevent that the pic is numbered 53 on level 52? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It's more relevent that its 'b' |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I have "a" that was the first thing I did... I have translated all the words, nothing... Overlayed the images , nothing.... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Did you try thinking along the lines of translating 'los''angeles'? |
