Anagramming the page title might get you started.

The numbers you posted are not the right path to the solution.

None. 3 words. You're looking for a "code"

Still not the right anagram. I think I need to do a better job clueing the code on this level. Its a very famous code though.

Nice work. Any suggestions for how to clue 24 without giving it away?

UPDATE: I've completed 44 level up to this point. Some of you are pretty close to catching up to me.

Typo in "easter egg" comment on 20.
Also, I'm missing something: Book 'em, Danno is a catchphrase from Hawaii Five-O. The "book" is probably a reference to the fact the number on the sign is the ISBN for a self-help book called "first things first". However, none of the authors' names work, nor is taking the first letters of stuff, etc.So probably there's an extra hint that ties to them, but what?

You're trying too hard again. Just use the name of the book

Typo corrected...thx

46 levels now complete.

Anyone made it to the new color yet? (Level 30)

Any progress? Any help needed?

I have 49 levels completed, though I realized that I had two puzzles numbered 28. Rather than renumber every page, I pulled one of the two 28s and popped it onto the end. So if you've already passed that point, you may see a puzzle again.

I haven't touched it since reaching 21. Have you padded the beginning with intro-level puzzles yet?

[Suspence]

Not yet, as I'd really hate to renumber almost 50 levels unless I'm really sure about the final order.

Here's a link to four puzzles I was thinking of using. One puzzle will lead to the other, as usual:

http://www.glpics.com/suspence13/test/test.htm

Thoughts? Since you already have ideas on what to do with these, they should be easy. Try to wear your newbie hat while reviewing them.

No need for renumbering. Just call them tutorial A, B etc, and have a link that skips to the current #1.

[Suspence]

Ultimately, I'd like to have them included in the level count, so I will renumber everything. I just want to be sure that I have a set lineup for all levels before I do so, so that I only have to do it once.

Any comment on any of the 4 "test" levels?

I did the first three. It sounds silly but I think you should have one that just says something like "the answer is in the page source" - it's not 100% clear everyone know such a thing (view page source) is even possible.

[Scurra]

I had a problem with test level 4 owing to the fact that I have a UK keyboard. It was still perfectly possible, but a bit annoying that such a nicely elegant puzzle fell down at that stage. I agree with Antrax that an explicit instruction to look at the page source would be good to include somewhere.

(In passing I will note that I generally don't like these sort of linear games, simply because when you get stuck there is nowhere else to go. So there is a nasty tendency to give up completely rather than e.g. go off and work on another puzzle and let the first one percolate away in the back of your mind.)

I'm with Scurra Re: linearity. It can be offset somewhat by easter egg pages.

Not that I think of. Those were actually my next suggestions: a link to an anagram & cryptogram solver and reverse image search.

Cool. I've got a seven level tutorial built starting at test/start.htm.

Tonight, I'll work on incorporating those into the main puzzle, renumbering, switching everything over to CSS, etc.

[Suspence]

I've incorporated 10 new levels into the beginning of the puzzle, renumbered everything, and changed everything over to CSS.

That gives the puzzle 60 levels. Hopefully, there are at least some people still working on it.

Now that I got to looking at 30 (used to be 21) it's quite puzzling.

It's actually based on an encoding method I came up with years ago on the GL, in one of my "Sage Advice" puzzles.

The encoding method is clued by the title of the level.

[Antrax]

That much I gathered. I'll tell you what I tried, tell me how I overthought it:
Since there are 36 letters that don't seem to anagram to anything interesting nor cryptogram etc, I tried arranging them in various rectangles and reading from the top down ("first letters first") to no avail. Anagramming just the first letters of words also didn't suggest much. Adding first letters to each word won't work, since there are too many consonant sequences.

[Suspence]

Does it help if I tell you that the word lengths and spaces are unchanged from the original quote?

All of the letters are there (and therefore could actually be anagrammed), it is just that the first letters are first. And the second letters are next, etc.

Huh, you used one of my old desktops for the next one.

I seem to be of the wrong gender. Am I missing anything?

On the rainbow level? What have you found so far?

If nothing, visit the pages suggested by the mnemonic.

66 levels now done.

Antrax is on 31 (formerly known as 22) at last check, and I know bgg had made it to 34 (25)at least. Endymion was up to 27 (18)

Anyone else care to update me on where they are? I know Zag and ralphmerridew had at least started the puzzle.

I wouldn't expect either gender to come up with the actual name of these colors on their own. Each color code has a defined HTML color name, for instance when you are writing code you can write either "#F0E68C" or "khaki"

Oh, I didn't know that about HTML. Even knowing it, it took 6-7 Google hits until I found the info I needed. Dunno what this says about the difficulty of the puzzle.
BTW, you can put an irrelevant Easter egg if you like: Roy G. Biv is the pseudonym Hugh Bliss uses in the first season of Sam & Max

Came up right away for me: http://www.google.com/search?q=html+color+names

Plus, if you search on any color, it seems to come up within the first few results as well - http://www.google.com/search?q=F0E68C

I know bgg passed this level without a hiccup. I gave him a small push on the "first things first" encoding to get him to the rainbow puzzle, then the next time I helped him was with the juggler, which is a few levels later.

Hopefully I'll get more feedback to accurately asses how solvable this one was.

I'm on the juggler now, 32 was great, one of my favourites so far.

[Suspence]

Thanks. I've posted that here before, but glad you liked it.

Enjoy the juggler. If you run into problems, looking back to when bgg and I discussed it should help, but I'd love to know if it's solvable without a push.

This may come as a surprise, but I don't really read VSP beyond anti-spam sweeps and the occasional chess puzzle

Well, then, even more thanks for investing time into this puzzle.
