16th? Hard to tell when not everyone announces their arrival.

Anyway, I've finally completed every existing level! And it only took me... 11 years...

Thanks again for the great riddle!

Finally solved, thanks to a tip from Ila26. Turns out I was thinking too black-and-white - "too much" is only slightly too much, it's mostly correct.

I realise the forum is mostly dead these days, but I had a cool idea for a new riddle, so I thought I'd post it here. It's a bit harder than the previous ones, but anyone who's made it past level 20 or so of IH shouldn't have too much trouble with it. Good luck

[PIcture of circle goes here]

Hahaha, why didn't I think to try that before?
Solved, thanks to a hint from Muzozavr. Surprisingly simple for an unsolvable level

Nearly a year later, and I'm still stuck on 68c (zero-bytes). I have no idea how to 'transform', and the only case-sensitive methods I could think of didn't work. 'Non-words' makes this a ridiculous guessing game, particularly when the 0B hint is so minimal.

EDIT: Made it through thanks to some PMs. Right place, wrong case :roll:

Now for 68d... had to pull out Avidemux because VLC's frame advance is lame. I think I've been "precise" enough, but I don't think I've found the "detail" yet (pretty sure it's not the empty Polish audio track

)

Still stuck on the "too much..." HS. Does it mean I'm translating incorrectly, or is this the correct way to proceed? (If so, more hints would be nice

)

Just found the "solved" picture, but is it really over so soon? It seems almost too simple. And I'm still not sure what people meant about being "nice", unless they're just referring to the name of the second picture.

Also, I still don't think "Is in here" on its own is quite enough to find the first page. What's written in the HSs is a much better hint - but you're more likely to find them after the first page than before... (For second step, the picture is all you need.)

Also stuck at the 0B file - I'm assuming the "lock" and "key" have the same name at every stage, but now the key is locked too

Several clues but not sure how to combine them, and "don't be afraid of non-words" means even more possibilities...

ahahahaha :)

Oh wow, has it really been 5 years?

Anyway, I've finally made it past this level

My final result for the second part still looked rather muddled, but not dark - and I can see how a certain method would make it clear

On to 66!

The wording on this part was confusing... 'Turns' is not really relevant here.

If you've found --- (I'll call it a "lock"), all you need to do is
- find key.key
- get key
- put key in lock (but might have to change shape of key before it will fit in lock)
- ---

(sorry if too spoily)

I've now found four "Not in..." HSes total, and one just "Not", but still no progress. And BTHL should be easy now

Apparently my direct quote from the hs was too subtle :roll:

NOw, how to interpreT the clue...?

...But my accidental spoiler was to point out that I already did that, and I don't see anything else it can lay on...

Even with help from Muzozavr, this level took me far too long to find

Now I'm in a new location, found three hint screens but no second picture yet. Right track?

Not sure if I should take that as a hint...
Do I need to find another layer? I've found too much --- already.

Finally thought to just try my weird results as they were :roll:

...But now I'm on a hint screen and out of ideas how to proceed

Both answers are clearly spelled out for you if you know where to look

Just finished a run-through up to level 65 (where I'm still stuck) to look for any issues, found a couple but nothing major.

- As has been mentioned, the sound files are sometimes glitchy - mp3 files sometimes don't load fully, thus looping much earlier than they should, and swf files sometimes stop playing. I don't know how much of this is my computer/browser's fault, but I'm not the only one who's had mp3 issues at least.
- The entrance to level T is still pointing to the me3.pl domain, although this won't exactly prevent people from finding the level

- As has been mentioned, the tool necessary for level 17 won't work on 64-bit Windows. I'm trying to find a way to convert it to 64-bit (or at least 32-bit), but with my lack of programming knowledge, I'm not very hopeful.
- For that matter, I'm sure there was a hint somewhere in level 17 saying 'l*** f** s**', but I can't find it any more. Is it gone, or am I just not looking hard enough? (I think it was at k**.htm, which is now a 404.)
- --- are missing from the 'old levels' version of 27, making it unsolvable unless you've played the current 27. I can't solve the old versions of 13, 18 or 26 either, but that's most likely due to lack of clues rather than missing files.

And now for some extremely minor nitpicking...
- http://inwardhellix.com/tutorial/mus/ needs an extra '../' in its source code to correctly point to the css file. On a related note, http://inwardhellix.com/css/ is the first legitimate 403 I've found on the site

(trying to visit [any folder]/.htm also gives a 403, but I suspect that's unpreventable).
- There's a click sound at the end of thud.mp3 (level 23), and a less noticeable one in hatebeat.mp3 (34, 46, 59 etc). Nothing massive, but kind of annoying for people who pay too much attention to the background music (like me).
- I'm quite happy that the Google part of 59 is now easier, but the change does make the HS (the one about 'never heard of a thing called like that') a bit strange.
- Wikipedia does not acknowledge the -8290.5 value in level 39. It's still quite findable through Google, but if you feel like making it a little more 'official', the -8290.5 should be replaced with -8244.
- I'm a little disappointed that there isn't a sarcastic '---' egg on level 19.

I just now found what to do at that first step. It is indeed quite simpLe, and I've seen it show up in riddLes before...

EDIT: Treasure is found!
:happy:

I wasn't around for old 12, but I recognise it from the "old levels" section - the reward for cue two was much easier to read in this version, though

The "Need a..." hs will help a lot. Just compare it to "bLue", and that's all you need to figure out the code for the source riddle (in fact, it's possible to figure out with just the word "bLue", only more difficult).

...sorry, I just couldn't resist...

Still can't find the instructions

All I can think of is the source hint or squinting at the background of the pics - neither is helping.

No, I have honestly never used it

Now seems like a good time to start.

EDIT: okay, found third pic, but... I think the "feature" really is gone. Also, is red pic supposed to be broken at the bottom?
EDIT 2: Pics combined, now what?

(PS: my title is now "Follow the leader..." How appropriate.)

All I can think of to do with how "that" works is extra underscores/hypens/symbols, and that hasn't worked so far
