J4zz

:
well started again, but now I can't put the answer in for Q1, and I know who it is, but won't let me do it, have tried lower case both names etc, but cant get past number 1!!

Comment 52, Sunday, June 10th 2007 10:02:28 AM

Nanr93

:
I'm also looking for help with 7.

Comment 53, Sunday, June 10th 2007 10:05:06 AM

Nanr93

:
I know #7 has something to do with:


SPOILER: (click box to reveal/hide)
the index number of Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics. The quote on the page comes from book IX, ch. 3.


But that's as far as I've gotten, and I still can't sort out what to do with the answer. Any ideas?

Comment 54, Sunday, June 10th 2007 10:09:52 AM

Nanr93

:
Update. Each line on the page comes from a different chapter of

HINT: (click box to highlight/fade)
Aristotle's Nicomachean Ethics.

The chapters are:

SPOILER: (click box to reveal/hide)
book ix ch 3
book iv ch 3
book v ch 11
book i ch 1

Comment 55, Sunday, June 10th 2007 10:33:33 AM

Comment 57, Sunday, June 10th 2007 05:36:51 PM

Trinih

I think you miss a clue from the source Julia gulia

Faithakahope

:
I still am stuck on level 7. I have tried everything I can possibly think of with the chapter numbers of the book and still getting errors. Any help of what I am doing wrong?

Comment 59, Monday, June 11th 2007 05:17:27 AM

Amapola

:
Faithakahope: First of all, make sure you have the right numbers.
Now:

SPOILER: (click box to reveal/hide)
have you tried "translating" the numbers?

Comment 60, Monday, June 11th 2007 06:36:51 AM

Faithakahope

:
do you mean
</from roman numerals to actual numbers>

Comment 61, Monday, June 11th 2007 08:03:11 AM

Faithakahope

:
sorry having trouble with the spoiler tag


SPOILER: (click box to reveal/hide)
do you mean translation from roman numerals? casuse i've already done that
SPOILER: (click box to reveal/hide)

Comment 62, Monday, June 11th 2007 08:09:51 AM

Amapola

:
....And now you have "normal" numbers.

HINT: (click box to highlight/fade)
translate numbers into....

there are not many options now, are there?

Comment 63, Monday, June 11th 2007 08:49:23 AM

Nanr93

:
Amapola, I don't understand your hint (and this is day 3 for level 7...). Do you mean

SPOILER: (click box to reveal/hide)
translate book numbers or chapter numbers or both?
.
And do you mean

SPOILER: (click box to reveal/hide)
translate the numbers from Roman to Arabic, or to translate their names from English to Spanish?

Comment 64, Monday, June 11th 2007 12:35:01 PM

Amapola

:
You're overthinking that

SPOILER: (click box to reveal/hide)
use only book numbers, forget the chapters

Now, you have

SPOILER: (click box to reveal/hide)
arabic numbers (four arabic numbers), and what you need is four letters

There are no PMs here, but if you visit Trinih's forum:

I'm there (same nick), you can send me a pm if you want to.

Matsuzoh, you're on the right track with

SPOILER: (click box to reveal/hide)
philosopher

If you look back at earlier posts, I think someone posted his birth and death dates.

Impossible! No offense to people who like these, but they just don't seem to have that good "LAZYLACES FEELING" that I get when I do room escape or point-and-click.

I'm not even getting past lvl 1!! Aggh... Driving me insane!!!

Comment 77, Friday, June 15th 2007 03:05:06 AM

Trinih

:
Perhaps you need to recharge the page and start again: Who's he? (and don't forget the clue in the source code ;))

Comment 78, Friday, June 15th 2007 09:21:24 PM

Matsuzoh

:
I'm stuck in level12.

I found the name of the place and trying to input various ways in
SPOILER: (click box to reveal/hide)
Latin
,but I couldn't make it through.

Is the answer the name of the place, or else?

Comment 79, Sunday, June 17th 2007 03:56:57 PM

Faithakahope

:
Matsuzoh, I too am stuck

I have tried
SPOILER: (click box to reveal/hide)
church in Latin and different things i see in the picture. I've even tried the word simple since the title of the page and trinih's forums state the answer is "simple as look".

Comment 80, Sunday, June 17th 2007 11:31:22 PM

Matsuzoh

:
I got it! to level 13

Thanks Faithakahope, your comment remind me of how important to

look

Burghbaby

:
hi,
really desperate in the burgh on level 10.
tried everything-
isms, first names, last names, books, source code, etc etc...
cannot find a clue.
HELP!
thanks.

Comment 82, Friday, June 22nd 2007 02:13:40 PM

Nanr93

:
burghbaby, don't forget to use what you learned in the previous level. the answer to level 9 has a lot to do with level 10.

Comment 83, Saturday, June 23rd 2007 08:06:25 AM

Burghbaby

:
nanr93

thanks for trying to help.
i've learned in level 9:

SPOILER: (click box to reveal/hide)
q1 leads to idealism and mother; q2 leads to the golden rule and utilitarianism. and i learned math and abc's.
i don't know about your mother but my mother always told me that if i couldn't carry groceries in one bag, i couldn't afford them. and to say please and thank you.

and then in 10 i know

SPOILER: (click box to reveal/hide)
auto-icon, and his pupils. austin, mill, j.s. mill... and some of their isms.

and for the life of me, i cannot connect the dots!

Comment 84, Saturday, June 23rd 2007 04:00:24 PM

Nanr93

:
burghbaby, you're forgetting the titles in level 9. In order to get level 10, you need to

SPOILER: (click box to reveal/hide)
use the numbers in the titles of the main page for level 9 and the two eggs

Let me know if you need more than that.

Comment 85, Monday, June 25th 2007 10:26:40 AM

Burghbaby

:
nanr93
i'm on 10, trying for 11.
on 11, i have no egg.
and deep despair.
thanks

Comment 86, Monday, June 25th 2007 11:48:33 AM

Nanr93

:
Burghbaby, here's a major nudge in the right direction. Don't read it if you want to keep working on your own...

SPOILER: (click box to reveal/hide)
use the name of the pic, the title of the page, and the way you got to level 10, in that order

Comment 87, Monday, June 25th 2007 12:34:53 PM

Nanr93

:
I'm seriously stuck on level 21. I think I know the following:

SPOILER: (click box to reveal/hide)
which numbers to assign to the colors, and i've managed to make two words out of the first eight colors. From there, I have no idea what to do. None of the remaining numbers seem to form any words :-(

Can anyone help?

Comment 88, Monday, June 25th 2007 12:44:32 PM

Shelistar

:
OK im on level 9, i used the numbers
SPOILER: (click box to reveal/hide)

SPOILER: (click box to reveal/hide)

Comment 89, Thursday, June 28th 2007 03:30:40 PM

Burghbaby

:
shelistar


SPOILER: (click box to reveal/hide)
you actually used 9 and 21; you got 9 and 17.
pardon the french, but you IS close!


and after you get to 10, you can help me out.

i'm stuck with no egg on my face!

Comment 90, Thursday, June 28th 2007 05:55:18 PM

Burghbaby

:
sorry, nanr93 -

your nudge has pushed me over the edge. i still don't have an egg and i don't know what else to try.

Comment 91, Thursday, June 28th 2007 05:58:36 PM

Shelistar

:
Yeah im struggling with 10 now to, iv explored loads about bentham his pupils etc and dont seem to have got any further and clues in the forums haven't been much help.

Comment 92, Thursday, June 28th 2007 10:30:43 PM

Nanr93

:
Burghbaby and Shelistar, I just saw your posts. First, you should check out the forum at nordinho - it's much more active for this riddle than lazylaces, for some reason. Second, here's a link that should help you both beat level 10:

SPOILER: (click box to reveal/hide)
http://hem.bredband.net/b153434/Index.htm

And remember, you're looking for

SPOILER: (click box to reveal/hide)
something about Bentham's pupil. This "something" is indicated by the answer to level 9.

Good luck!

thanks!

i'm on the way!

You're welcome, Burghbaby. BTW, I strongly recommend using Trinih's forum (you get there by clicking the link on the riddle's Welcome page. It has an additional clue - sometimes a critical one - for every level. Between that and Nordinho, there's lots of help available (sorry, Graeme, but this is just one of those games that didn't quite get off the ground on lazylaces :(...

Comment 97, Thursday, July 5th 2007 09:27:39 AM

Matt

:
Yeah ... and my game "What Makes You Tick" has dropped 15% in the last four days ... seems someone is voting down the the other games and pushing this one up. Sigh ... but who cares.
