1.4 was simple. 1.5 took a little bit to get. Anyone get to 1.6?

Oop! I just did. That took a while. *pets geekiness*

I'm stuck on 1.7. I got quite a bit of the answer...but there's a few that I'm lost on.

(How many brothers for brides?)
(RIP race)
(And interstellar affair set in which year again?)
(Head in box)
(How many days after?)
(Smoking containers of beer)
(The state of Britain)

I don't know any of those.
Hint: use amazon

Each clue is related to a movie in some way.
There are numbers in the title of each movie, and you have to add the numbers together.

Yeah, I'm pretty far. Three cheers for noon dismissal!

I got the others pretty quickly, but 1.3 stumped me. I thought about it all day at work and I'm still lost.

Someone PM me and gimme a little hint. :)

Jon K. 04-06-2003 11:57

1.3 also is stumping me

Madison 04-06-2003 14:09

Okay. . .

Edit: Okay, got passed 1.24.

Now I'm on 1.27. I've translated the entire message, but I don't know the proper answer to the riddle.

George1902 04-06-2003 14:09

Yeah, 1.3 tends to give people a bit of trouble. It stumped me for a long while. The answer is important; don't let it frustrate you too much. As for giving you a hint... I just did. =-]

Good luck on 1.4 when you get to it!

thanks for the hint. how did you figure it out??

Madison 04-06-2003 19:08

Stage 2, here I come.

Does anyone need any more hints for stage 1?

srjjs 04-06-2003 21:53

Yeah, the message is being frustrating to translate. Can you give me a few letters to get me started or something?

"Finally, well done, the end of the first stage is within your grasp."

Edit: I thought I was the only one still trying this. 2.8 is near-impossible to figure out and requires an enormous leap of logic. 2.9 *looks* easy enough, but, yeah.

Amanda Morrison 05-06-2003 22:11

1.8 anyone?

shyra1353 06-06-2003 00:01

still stuck on 1.4
feel free to pm me with hints

srjjs 06-06-2003 01:18

For 1.8, you need to count very carefully, but if you do, getting the right answer is fairly straightforward.
In 1.4, read the question carefully. There's a pun in the first half of the answer.


2.8, on the other hand, is frustrating me. I've got the message decoded, and I'm staring at 1.22 and not seeing what I'm supposed to do. Not knowing whether "or" is part of the riddle (French for gold, which is certainly not very hard) is bugging me too.

Good job giving a hint the same way as 1.1.. :P


1 hour and 40 minutes later, i'm at 1.25. Some were really easy, and a lot use the first trick "the type a word". The gry one nwas evil. the riddle with the boxed and all that was evil. Sheesh this is too fun.

Why do palindromes have to be so fun? racecar, mom, noon, madam im adam

sigh, these lyrics are truly evil.. it's not "these wheels" it's "big wheels" according to a google search.. sigh. bed is good at 2:45
