: Post subject: Level 22
i really hope it is level 22 ;-)

edit:
<! Some riddles are unsolvable.> - close to agree :mrgreen:
i've tried many things with those numbers (conversions & math) but nothing worked...

help please ;-)
Beezqp - 2007-03-25, 20:04
:
Remember those signs from the picture? They pointed something before and now do quite the same thing... Just "use" them properly.
Tynka - 2007-04-07, 19:54
:
I don't know how I could miss it...

it was easy :oops: thanks for help ;)

: Post subject: Clue page?
I tried entering a potential password and was taken to a page that says "Don't even try it..." Is this a clue, or is it telling me I am way off base?
killypumpkin - 2007-09-25, 05:27
:
It's wrong. :/
Beezqp - 2007-09-25, 09:11
:
I wonder how did you receive this. That's shown only when you try to go to index of each catalog - just disallowing you to see all the files in folder. Anyway, it appears only, when you delete from your URL xxxx.htm or type "index.htm" o_O

Anyway, try something different ;)

I got that too.

From doing exactly that. xxxx.htm

The X in the missing pic...it was worth a try.
DaWorm - 2007-09-25, 22:50
: Post subject: Actually...
I got it from converting the numeric code in the picture to "shifted characters" and using that as the password. I thought that maybe the character before and after the numbers 10 in the picture signified a certain location, as in a previous puzzle. I be wrong. But now I have no clue.

such character in url works exactly like deleting 'answer.htm'
try '#daworm.htm' for example ;)

hmm, do you know what 10 means here ?
DaWorm - 2007-09-26, 21:11
:
Well, it is likely a reference to a previous level, perhaps. The level with the ignored stuff in the source. Or the symbols before and after the 10s could be referencing yet another level. ??
killypumpkin - 2007-09-26, 21:18
:
There is a detail here that is different from other levels.
Find that and that's half the battle.
DaWorm - 2007-09-26, 21:26
:
Well, yes, I know what that is. There is something almost missing. I know it is significant, just not how.
Tynka - 2007-09-27, 10:49
:
The symbols in the picture have been seen before ;) find them and use the same method here
DaWorm - 2007-09-27, 19:30
:
Got it...thanks. If you are not thinking in a particular way, this puzzle is very difficult. Once you understand baseics of how it works, it is very easy.
pepez - 2007-10-21, 18:07
:
okay...
i know what is almost missing, i do not know how to use it, there are only two symbols in the picture that don't remind me of another level whatsoever.... ????

GOT IT!!!
darky - 2007-10-25, 20:15
:
ok... I am able to see the thing which was missing at first. It doesnt help me. I see a lot of numbers, which are not very helpful as well and I see this: (10 10) this could be b***** again. So is the --- level the one I should remember to solve 22? Or is it the level with --- and so on?
I think, I need some help...
paFci0 - 2007-10-25, 20:26
:
I think that it's not (10 10) but (10) (10). It makes difference. --- is almost...
Strati - 2007-11-24, 22:35
:
Hint Circle - 132°
22 = 2x10^1 + 2x10^0... well, not in here...
Where's it anyway? Oh...it's just in a different place...

wukazetka - 2008-09-16, 10:32
:
I'm stuck. I've tried so many things and conversion and everything, that I don't even know what's my name now. Maybe a little more hint? I don't even know where to look...

lvl+reality=23
wukazetka - 2008-09-16, 10:45
:
I thought it's about my keyboard, but I can make with those numbers only some rubbish, not a word :D or maybe I'm missing something...
legobenj - 2008-09-16, 10:58
:
Not your keyboard, just a simple reality. ;)
wukazetka - 2008-09-16, 11:32
:
and will I get a real word, or just an anagram or something? Geez, that drives me crazy :D
legobenj - 2008-09-16, 12:46
:
A real word(s), but to figure it out you need (reality+lvl#). Hard to say anymore... ;)
Beezqp - 2008-09-16, 13:39
:
You may don't know the meaning of "reality" yet.

The brackets and their inside are important. Something is missing in the picture - find it elsewhere. And use the bracket-connection with the past level.

Someone please PM me a BIG HINT!
I really have no idea here.. :(
maybe the level/s i should use ...

Sometimes you have to go backwards to go forwards. ;)

Tynka - 2008-10-25, 17:38
:
my 'history' on this level:
- first few days - maaaany wrong ideas, nothing...
- one week break from IH
- back and solved in 3 minutes :)

maybe you need a break too... ;)
or PM me or someone what you have tried so far
darkheart - 2008-11-09, 07:17
:
Gah.. I also took a one week break from inward but still nothing..
I don't know what to do, is it really a reference to the previous lvel with
the ignore thingy?? Or is it sumthng else? :(

i took a brake and forgot the link
10x
paFci0 - 2008-11-19, 16:06
:
No, I suppose, no one will link PM you link. If you really passed earlier levels, you should be able to do it again now. Break isn't explanation.
22 isn't that far anyway.
Beezqp - 2008-11-19, 16:26
:
If you remember any of previous levels [21, 20] - send me PM with solution and maybe I'll help you. You know, words are not enough...

you need only numbers and the right idea what to do with them ;)
in the past you did something similar, slightly different but the general idea is the same...

If you are referring to one level at the very beginning I have noticed it but, it seems to have nothing to do with this level cause as beezq said "we don't do anything with the keyboard"..

Beezqp - 2009-01-04, 11:15

(n) means that n is, in some specific way, important. This "specific way" is the key to solve 22.
touchsky - 2009-01-15, 00:04
:
i'm very stuck on this one. it would be nice if the people who were once stuck on this one but then got it after receiving help would pass on some of their own help. i've read everyone's suggestions on here and i obviously haven't got the answer, so a repeat of what has already been said is no use.

it's driving me mental!

UfnalCrowlake - 2009-01-30, 12:14
:
Why did no one mention the other thing(s) that you can find on the screen? Is it because they're unimportant or because they're so obvious?

And is it in any way connected with the missing thing and the two tens which seem to be more then just tens?
Beezqp - 2009-01-30, 12:18
:
They are no tens at all. And yes, there is "something in common" ;)
UfnalCrowlake - 2009-01-30, 12:28
:
I know what are they (or at least I hope so... But it seems logical, and the screen I found [wasn't really a HS, I suppose] seems to confirm that) but how to connect them with those other things from the pic...

BTW, is the source message a hint or just the maker's cruelty?
Beezqp - 2009-01-30, 12:45
:
Other things on the pics? Brackets are important at least if you have memory. What is in brackets has special meaning.

You must believe.

I mean those small digits... (cut it if it's spoily)
Beezqp - 2009-01-30, 12:57
:
you mean the number in the front? well, it's the most important thing... but you need to know how to use it, otherwise it's useless.
UfnalCrowlake - 2009-01-30, 13:03
:
Yeah, I've noticed that, thanks ;P And this knowledge is hidden in one of the previous levels?
Beezqp - 2009-01-30, 13:05

this knowledge is hidden in this level but knowledge to this knowledge is hidden in the past.
LadyGwenhwyfar - 2009-02-12, 20:56

oh my goodnes. lol. im so stuck on this one. ok, so i dont know how to use the numbers in front. i get that there is a hint in a previous level, and i think i know which one it is, i just dont know what to do with it. i know what is missing, but i dont know how to use that. lol.
Tynka - 2009-02-12, 21:13

the main idea is the same as in this previous level ;) just the right "thing" is not so popular this time...
touchsky - 2009-02-18, 21:56
:
i'm still waaaay stuck on this one! to be perfectly honest i can't even make out the last digit of the big number in the middle!
Tynka - 2009-02-18, 21:59
:
the last digit is 9
ruchi - 2009-03-08, 11:01
:
I'm stucked here for a few weeks. And I just don't know how to face this one.
I see the number, and the (10 10), but not sure what they mean.
It is just (---), the level, it means something about binary, or something about invert... :?
:( Some riddles are unsolvable.
Tynka - 2009-03-08, 14:30
:
ok, lets collect all hints about how to decode number...

- brackets refer to one level from the past
- this level points out the general method of decoding
- what is in the brackets shows the specific 'variant' of this method
Marlett - 2009-03-20, 11:55
:
i know to what level the brackets refer to
i understand the general method of decoding in that level
but i don't have any idea about 'specific variant of this method'. how can (10 ... 10) show this 'variant'? all i know is that --- mean --- but i don't think there's any use of it

Tynka - 2009-03-20, 13:21
:
it is (10)(10) ;)
Marlett - 2009-03-20, 17:30
:
oh, yes - now this gives a hint to some previous .....
but is it also important in any other way?

Tynka - 2009-03-20, 21:50
:
think how to use it...
and if you understand brackets you don't need go back... ;)

touchsky - 2009-03-27, 18:46

mathematically speaking anything in brackets involves a multiplication. well strictly speaking brackets aren't necessary. but i take it this is not what you're all referring to. if this is so, then i still don't know what you normally do with these sorts of numbers, or however it was put?!?!

No. Besides, you get the numbers wrong. ;)

that still doesn't help me tho. i have one large number and two small numbers in brackets!!!
Xanax - 2009-03-28, 21:24
:
So you think that you have 3 numbers? You're wrong... Don't miss the detail. Isn't something missing here?
Tynka - 2009-03-28, 21:25
:
join your small numbers and think how to use it to 'decode' the large one...
touchsky - 2009-03-30, 00:07
:
still stuck. i'm gonna go over all the clues i have.

people keep talking about something that is missing, which i presume to be the ---. in between these two digits is a long number. people keep saying that the smaller numbers are (10)(10) which doesn't really make sense because there is only one set of brackets in the picture, not two.

anyhow from what people have tried to hint at on here, i presume the number 4 is important in decoding the large number, i just don't know how!

that is all i have. and if any of what i have just said gives too much away, please cover it in spoiler stuff as i don't really know what is right and what is wrong!!!
Strati - 2009-03-30, 01:56
:
I myself ain't getting what most of the hints here are trying to point at.

So, mine is: The missing thing isn't missing, it's there, but in another form.

You say that the two 10s are ---. But that isn't important, although this idea might be close to the idea you need.
Think on this:
-you see 10 in binary, you think it's two
-you see 10 in decimal, you think it's ten.
Tynka - 2009-03-30, 05:05
:
the two 10s were important for me... ;)

you know what is missing here... this is your key for decoding :)
Marlett - 2009-03-30, 15:31
:
do we have to decode the large number straight into letters? or we need some conversions 'between'?
Xanax - 2009-03-30, 15:33
:
One conversion is enough. ;)
touchsky - 2009-03-30, 22:43
:
still don't get it! and please stop putting smiley faces as i know this means that there is a clue, but i can't figure it out, so the smiley faces are just winding me up and laughing at me!!!

Okay, I am stuck here. I have found the level with brackets. It has been said that I only need to decode the big number once, and I just can't find the right way to do it. Is --- the right solution?

no... you need something less common

But my word is somehow important since it got cencored...? And why is the word mentioned several times uncencored in this thread?
Beezqp - 2009-06-21, 22:49

it's censored because it points to the level from the past.

it's not always about the word, it's mainly the context :p

only twice :P and a context is important...

:
Can I have a hint to a way to find this "less common" way to solve the numbers then? And is "From one down to zero...
From two up to two..." relevant for finding the level from the past or to decode the number?

Is a certain blue book important in this level?
Vardark - 2009-06-22, 22:11

Does the decoding tecnique involve replacing single numbers to single letters, so that I will end up with a eleven letters word(s)?

Its been a couple of months for this damn riddle but without close detail. I think i know whats missing but to be honest ive forgotten the previous riddles to go back. I dont remember seeing brackets and this is so long...

Vardark - 2009-06-24, 22:00

I used the 10's to get the previous level, but i still have no luck decoding the numbers. Is the 10's and the brackets only important to figure out the previous level, or do I also need to use them to decode the numbers?

:
Both.
Falcarius - 2009-06-25, 00:33
:
Brackets remind you of an earlier level.

What is in brackets gives you what you need to solve this level.



There are more than 2 and 10...
Muzozavr - 2009-09-07, 13:51
:
Well, so far I remember the --- level, but trying --- doesn't help...
Beezqp - 2009-09-07, 13:56

it's not because bracket says different thing. to get in same way but still different thing.

I "Found" what missing but cant figure out how to use this to decode the long number. Yes, I know the brakets point to a 'certain' level in the not-so-long-ago past, but I still cant get it.
ColdBlackPulse - 2009-12-14, 22:50

I'm with Silver... I've tried grouping, I've tried reversal. B***** can't work until I manage that blasted number in the middle. What guidance can the powers that be provide?
Xanax - 2009-12-14, 23:43
:
Neither grouping nor reversing will help. And b***** won't work either. What else you can do? Missing thing combined with a method similar to that from the past will reveal the truth behind the big number...
angelofhex - 2009-12-16, 06:44
:
Yet another little hint for all the lost souls. A previous lvl is not the key simply a guide to how to decode the number. and those (10) (10) are important in more than one way :P

İ'm on 22 for some time and i'v found the level that i should've i know that now i must use (10 10) now but i have no idea how to use it. is it something like b...... or something similar like that i tried all sorts of things but nothing so far

Yes. Behind 10s a missing element is hidden. Once you have it, compare it with the past.

sorry didnt understood am i supposed to see something in the picture of 22 that i havent seen before or is it something far different. or am i supposed to make something from 10s by using b........ because i already did that and it gave me an hintpage but it didnt help at all...
Tynka - 2010-01-09, 00:44

if you have the hintscreen you are done with 10s ;)

Found a second hint page... and a third

Why do I get the feeling that the 11 numbers aren't important at all?

[ Added: 2010-08-21, 20:23 ]
Wow... I finally got it, and I have to say, this was a good one.

Ok that was a bit spoilery, even with the ---... I was just being funny. I'll take it off

Superb level, and it so happens that I wrote a program some time ago that helped me out a bit in solving it!

Completly stuck... I found the hintscreen from whats missing in the picture, but that gives me nothing.. I know which level to go back to, do I still use the converter? (sorry if that's spoily.) Also, does B***** hintscreen apply to this level?
Tynka - 2010-10-07, 17:16
:
first hintscreen you found is important in some way ;)
it tells you that you need to modify the method from the past

B** hintscreen is not from this level ;)

Fantastic, I'm still lost. I was hoping that was for this one. Maybe someone can pm me and shove me in the right direction?
Tynka - 2010-10-08, 11:05

it doesn't work this way ;)
if you still need help - PM someone with what you have tried so far

Someone please help me I've been stuck here for so long. I've tried multiple conversions with no luck. I've seen one hint screen from what's missing in the picture. Help!!
vard - 2010-10-10, 02:01
:
as it was pointed out before, you need to do something you already did in some earlier level(s), with one slight (yet vital) change. Purple Hell may help.
Phoenix - 2010-10-10, 02:40
:
Ya I understand which level to look back at but everything I've tried so far hasn't produced anything. I have no idea what purple hell is. Should I?



Edit. Aaaahhhhh!! Googled purple hell, got the answer!! Wooooo! Thanks!!

I'm lost. I got the HS from the thing that is not present, tried different conversions with whole number and separate digits using ---... and i still can't find anything logical.
Does the title mean something (except for literal meaning)?
Beezqp - 2013-12-22, 21:58
:
One of the things you mentioned is valid and should have given you the answer.

Try again but better.

I have seen your post before Beezqp censored it -- one of your ideas is correct, check them again.

Curoun - 2013-12-22, 22:12
:
Is one conversion enough, or is it like in the other riddle?
Beezqp - 2013-12-22, 22:17
:
What other riddle?
Muzozavr - 2013-12-22, 22:17
:
One conversion enough. You might be using a faulty tool, google and find a different one that works correctly. The answer will jump out at you in a VERY obvious way if you do one particular conversion.

Beezqp: he means level 20. Also, why is a PM I sent to you still sitting in my outbox? Is it a forum bug or did you not have the time to read it yet?
Curoun - 2013-12-22, 22:25
:
Got the answer ;) The tool wasn't faulty, my brain was :D Then i found a tool and did the conversion properly :)
Some riddles are unsolvable indeed, this one was the hardest one IMO. Also, should've think deeper about highiq's hint. Overlooking it took a lot of precious time from my life...
Thanks a lot for your help people :)
@Beezqp: yes, i meant 20.

If you truly understood what you were doing in the first level with brackets than what you have to do to those numbers with (***) should make more sence. If you don't know what you were doing with the first level with brackets maybe do some searching.

Hi guys I'm stuck on this level. ---

So my question is this; have all the hints provided so far meant that the large number should be considered ---?

Feel free to spoilerise!

Funny as I'm not sure if anyone would be able to post more spoilers than you just did. 8)

Apologies for the spoilers!

I have tried using the 2 methods I wrote before the spoiler tags were added, but I get no real words. Am I doing the right thing?
vard - 2014-02-10, 14:37

try PMing someone to avoid posting spoilers on the forum?
touchsky - 2014-02-10, 21:49

Thanks to everyone who helped me.

For those still struggling, my advice is this; many people have said you need to look to the past and do something similar, only with a small change. This is not quite true. You actually have to look to the past and then do the opposite of what you did there, as if you are moving in reverse.

Good luck to everyone.

I'm still lost on this level...i get what level I'm supposed to look back on but i don't get how the (10 10) is supposed to tell me how to convert the big number...i hav a theory but its seems wrong plus u guys said i only need to convert it once

also u ask whats the brackets doing in the previous level but i don't know what its doing other than surround the number :/

Conventions, conventions everywhere.
Alexei403 - 2014-03-23, 20:37

I'm wondering if I have to use JC's method (wow that is so hard to hint at without actually saying it, please spoil if necessary) to get this? Because I've tried every possible way (I would assume it's supposed to be the 1010th one) of using that technique (man the internet is handy for that!) and can't make any sense of anything I get, no matter if I use single digits or go beyond or use a combination of the two.

Triple checked my initial conversion of the number after I realized that I got the first letter wrong. Still nothing obvious.
Muzozavr - 2014-03-24, 20:55
:
Took a break at 54, but I will return... eventually. After all, taking breaks is allowed, right? I remember long breaks on 29, 30, 32, 41, 44...

So, for 22... ignore JC.

You're searching for a single conversion that will give you a STRIKINGLY OBVIOUS result. Like the answer will be staring right in your face, no further "making sense" or "reconversions" are to be done.

If your method does not give you anything obvious, it's not the right method. If your method has more than one way of doing it, it's not the right method either.

THank you very much !!
