Please don't post answers here, PM me if you think you have the final answer.
(You can post for help if you need it, though. Just be careful not to give anything away...)


In order of difficulty:

a) CTAATGT
a is for adenine

b) 2913787251453476
b is for base-10

c) MAC VERSION: ¡ª ¡∞ ¡¢ ¶
WINDOWS VERSION: ‼ ☼ ♫ •
c is for control? - no, but close...

d) 6 8 8 9 equals seven. What does 2 100 8 8 equal?
D is for Death...

e) What is it called?
e is for end!




P.S. If the symbols in c) don't show up, just post and I'll try and tell people what they are.

No, the numbers in part b are fine. If you're using the same website as me, it adds a .0 on the end, so be careful.

And as I expected, Tynka was the first to solve it :P

And arecek is second. Congratulations!

Every riddle is pretty much straightforward, i solved everything... except B
that wasn't the way i was thinking, but i can't think of any "more easy
than riddle C" method to use there.
My riddle skills are rusting, i guess. Or i just can't find the right tool. Whatever... ;P

Part b is very similar to level <certain number>... except it's not based on <certain number>.
What's something a bit more logical?

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]

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0
