:gigi..
try blind typing the wrong way, and make it so that the { becomes a translatable character or so...
hope that helps

:I figured that the "<" either side of qwertyuiop was a backwards clue but it still makes no sense. I also figured out immediately that it was a nonogram since the title contains the subtle clue word "nonogram"!!!!!
The only other thing I know for sure is that S has to be 4 or less in the substitution otherwise line 8 of the nonogram doesn't work.
Sorry Draghkar but your clue still leaves me clueless. 8^S
Draghkar
:hmmm
read the < as a <-
does that help?
Groove Puppy
:No, that's what I meant. I already get that "<" means a backwards arrow but not how to substitute the letters for numbers. I assume you're suggesting that
SPOILER: (click box to reveal/hide)
P=0, O=9, I=8, etc. but that doesn't explain { or how to keep S=4 or less.
but thanks for introducing me to nonograms. :D
Groove Puppy
:Sorry, my spoiler should have read
SPOILER: (click box to reveal/hide)
P=1, O=2, I=3, etc.

:Hey guys, I've been working my way through the trail, but I'm stuck on level 12 (End What You Halfway Started With):
SPOILER: (click box to reveal/hide)
I've turned the morse into binary, and then tried converting binary to text, except I can only manage to get garbage out of the translator:
"Py aquvt da klgc Ub vexwqg dvus Py rproe v blh A rzlwema fuahx"
Have I done something wrong, or is there more I have to do?
"Py aquvt da klgc Ub vexwqg dvus Py rproe v blh A rzlwema fuahx"
Have I done something wrong, or is there more I have to do?
I appreciate any help you guys can give
MikeJ
:Cam: There's a little bit more to do - check the source :)

:Draghkar:
Can't get the chat to run on my PC. Here's a disposable email you can use if you're feeling generous with hints. :D
Thnx
Groove Puppy
:This page won't let me post an email addy either. OK, I give up. What you are now smelling is the kerosene I am dousing my PC with!!!!!

:We are having trouble with number 8 (Spoiled ROTten). Please read if you can help:
SPOILER: (click box to reveal/hide)
We know the LCD is 7, we have been learning about the ROT cipher and the concept of MODs, but are a bit confused about how to use them. Are we looking for words based on all these numbers? Even the spoiler above has not helped.
Draghkar
:Sabrina:
SPOILER: (click box to reveal/hide)
ROT does not take numbers, so see if you can convert them to letters. Other than that. with 7 you are close, but not entirely. Try again but think bigger. Other than giving you the answer i can not help you :-S Sorry.
Sabrina
:Thanks Draghkar...something you said pushed us the right way, though I don't know what it was!
Sabrina
:we are stuck on 10. please help:
SPOILER: (click box to reveal/hide)
we figured they were coordinates and found a mapquest site where we could enter them. All we got were oceans (Indian, Arctic, Atlantic) a few seas, a few African and Middle Eastern countries, and one in Greenland. Are we at all on the right track and where on earth do we go from here, no pun intended. Oh, and we saw the "go great hole" reference in the source. We googled that and got a physics book.</spoiler)
Draghkar
:SPOILER: (click box to reveal/hide)
Google earth might help you better
Samkay
:Hi can anyone help = im stuck on level 8 with all the numbers - ive read right through this group and have tried everything that ppl have said abou the LCD again i think its 7 but when ive divided as suggested i got even more numbers and still there not small enough to convert to letters. i dont understand what some ppl mean by MOD. help please........
Draghkar
:SamKay,
Look at the hint I gave Sabrina earlier. (like 2 or 3 comments earlier.)
You are close :)
Greetz,
Draghkar
Sabrina
:Hey all, me again...I made it to level 14 - Hook line and stinker. Having a few issues...
SPOILER: (click box to reveal/hide)
First I looked at the source and saw the coordinates...a bunch of mumbo jumbo to me. I guessed you have to click somewhere on the fish. I have systematically tried every part of the fish to no avail. At one point I even got it to show semi outlines of each section, but that disappeared. Then I looked on Lazy Laces and saw the comment that someone got it using a spreadsheet graphing function. I wouldn't know how to use that if my life depended on it. Any advice?
Merry Christmas! Happy Hanukkah!
Draghkar
:Sabrina,
See if you can finsd each individual outline and take a piece of paper and try to draw them all on the paper.. see if it gives you something.
SPOILER: (click box to reveal/hide)
use tab

:Level 28 - the Christmas Level - is up now. I've designed it so you can do the main part of it even if you aren't at that level yet :) Happy Christmas, riddlers!
Nossy
:Help!! stuck on level 3 lol
Draghkar
:Hello nossy..
What are you stuck on?
Greetz,
Draghkar
Ganzu
:Hello all,
I am stuck on level 8. I have an idea but then again I don't know what I am exactly looking for in this one. I have noticed the Spoiled ROTten and don't know how to apply that to the numbers shown.
Draghkar
:Hey Ganzu,
You need to think about what there is in common with all those numbers, and how to translate them to letters
hope that helps,
Draghkar
Eric
:dont even know where to begin on level 5 please help
Orione
:Eric, have you read the source-code too?
Sabrina, if you are still stuck on level 14:
Mega spoiler: (the kind that truly spoils the fun LOL)
SPOILER: (click box to reveal/hide)
I finally solved it by opening the page in Frontpage 2000. And then clicking on the image.
God knows that took me forever LOL
Anyway, upwards and onwards!

:Hi all, I know I'm late to the party but i'm stuck on 15, the one with the punchcard. I've found the hidden text, but I, not being a computer programmer neither now nor in 1974, still have no idea how to read it.
And Google has not been my friend with this one.
Anyone who could point me in the direction of a website that can show show me how to read this crazy thing would earn my gratitude and possibly a fruit pie.
Sam
:I've read all posts and not a single hint on level 9???? I must be stupid, but please help me.
Demonoula

I remembered the answer to 9 offhand, but I cant remember the answer to 8 in order to get to 9, so I'm sorry, but I cant help you with the actual solving of the puzzle.
Sam
:Thank you sooooooo much. I had almost given up on this riddle.
Now on to 10 ;-)
Demonoula

Sabrina Kunz
:I am having trouble with level 18, driving you pottery.
HINT: (click box to highlight/fade)
The 1st one was easy as pie, and I assume the answer is some sort of code for getting the second one. but I can't figure anything out.

Thanks.
Draghkar
:Demonoula

Sabrina,
SPOILER: (click box to reveal/hide)
try some of the well known decoders on the grid, and another one on either of the columns of with the words to be found.
I hope that helps.
Tony
:Stuck at 21

Demonoula
:google each line puting it first into " " and see what you find
all the results have something in common
once you google them all it's prety obvious what is missing
InsertCoolNickname
:Anyone? Help on 15?
Draghkar
:InsertCoolNickname:
just google the title of the page and you will get some pages on translating the punch card
Draghkar
Demonoula
:hey i m still on 5.

Draghkar

Hence the substitution..
