I'm on level 31.
But I may have accidently entered the answer to level 28 when i was on level 12 :roll: so i sort of jumped a few.
Am still stuck on 12 though.

I'm pretty sure i have half of the workings to get the answer tho.

So call me brain-dead... but I can't get past "The Rules" on level 1. :B:C
Is there a question in there? The final sentence is "When you're ready to start, off you go..." but "start", "level2", "begin", "go", and answers of similar ilk don't work.
Am I missing something blatantly obvious here?

You can't be on level 31. You would have to have solved level 19 :gaah::crash::banghead:

I can't work out if its a maths problem or a decoding problem (or both)
I've got some of the clues but it doesn't seem to help.
My brain hurts!!

I'm stuck also. I've managed to find the following clues by viewing the source code, E=1, F=8, N=3, U=9 and R=0 is on the page tab. What next?

Awesome find!

Finished Phase 1 - level 50, and managed to walk away from it. Whew!
If you've skipped from one level to a much higher one, then you've got it wrong, and accidentally found the correct answer to a higher question.
Hint: you need your answers to previous questions to answer at least one of the higher levels, so rework the one which gave you the *boost*, and note your answers down as you go.
Cheers,
Andrew

Stirlo, I think Winston Churchill once said "To some, complete abstinence is easier than perfect moderation" and that's what I've applied to this puzzle.:D

I was hoping to reactivate this thread.
Level 1 (http://www.mcgov.co.uk/riddles/level1.html)
I discovered it way too late but am hooked and wasting too much time on it. I am stuck at level 9. Good fun for those who like cryptic crosswords and riddles. Hints to help me advance will be appreciated.
