oh no stuck on level 1 help!
on lvl 1 theres a hidden link, im stuck on lvl 2 tho lol
1 click under onward
i've done that stop thing to level 6, must be a bug.
not sure thats the right way to di it though, lol
Level 2 - There is something different in the title bar
yeah, it is a bug. you can see the questions up to lvl 6.
Checking the source code can help sometimes too
That's what I did for level 3. Can't get past Mary Mary.
mary mary quite contrary
I did that, but with a capital Q.
88 for lvl4
did it worked for you then? i ment just "quite contrary" worked for me :P
Yeah, it worked. Answers seem to be case sensitive.
2.php
and now ????
I found this that seems to be the answer for level 6:
David Bowie's final concert appearance as Ziggy Stardust was at the Hammersmith Odeon Theatre, London on the 3rd July 1973. The concert was the 60th of 40 dates (matinees included) and last of the 3rd UK Ziggy Stardust Tour. It has since become known as "The Retirement Gig." The two Hammersmith Odeon concerts (2nd & 3rd July) were designed to take place of the cancelled second show at Earl's Court.
Today the Hammersmith Odeon Theatre has been renamed the Hammersmith Apollo, and the stage extended at the front, but otherwise it remains the same 3,500-capacity theatre in which Bowie made his fateful Ziggy Stardust retirement announcement.
Can't get past the level though.
What about the answer for Red Herring?
omg.. I'm stuck on two..
what do you mean by "press stop" ?
christine; don't press stop. it's a bug. for level 2 look in the sourcecode. the name of the town is the answer
Christine - take a look at the difference between level 1 and level 2 in the title bar.
christine: sorry, i was talking about lvl3. however, for lvl 2 the answer is also in the sourcecode. look at the title of the page
thanks all... but now I'm stuck on 3.. lol... maybe this isn't the game for me.. I'm not feeling so bright !!
Any suggestions for RED HERRING?
musicman: no. i had a lot of ideas but none of them work. has to do something with the colors i think...
"red herring" means "false lead", so it could be something completely different ...
can someone plzz help me i cant get past level 2 it wont work when i press stop it goes back to the begining what do i have to type ?
Do you all have to start over from level 1 if you type in the wrong answer on another level..
At this rate I wont be done with this game for days.(hehehe)
Just hit backspace, or the back button of your browser
Level 2 --the answer is in the source..Cordwood
ok sussed it out
stumped on level 5, anyone got any ideas?
That's where Im at also Rigmarole..I tried couple different words..They didn't work and I have to start back over at Level 1..Is this the same for everyone??
yes, but as einkaldir said you can just hit back on your browser then stop to save going back through all the levels.
hey i found the easyest way to cheat in the adressbar do this:
http://theniche.us/zood/level1.php
change the word at the end e.g level 1 to peak at the last final level 12
=
http://theniche.us/zood/level12.php
Well, Im still stuck on level 5..Ive tried "smoke screen, wild goose chase,,lie, diversion and a few more..Just cant get past this..Anyone esle yet?
hehe yeah, but wheres the fun in that :P
the word "red" is in the colour black, i think this has something to do with it maybe?
flypen, I had done that for level 1 (because it's a usual trick in riddle games).
What's weird here is that I don't have level 7, 9, 10, 11
and level 6 is the same as level 8 (though level 8 has a popup talking about fishing, probably herring realted =)
also for question 5 I thought the letter "g" looked like an arrow towards the question mark, so tried the answer as "question mark" didnt work tho :/
I already tried "question mark", "interrogation point", "query", "eroteme", "question", "?" and so on long ago lol
einkaldir, what question are you on?
I tried magazine = wikipedia
disambiguation = wikipedia
pointless = no point on herring
NOPE
i got the name flypen from www.flypenfustion.co.uk
flypen makes homework fly by
still stuck on 5 and 6
einkaldir, how can you be stuck on 5 and 6 at the same time?
must be called cheating ......
diversion, distraction nope
Well did the cheating lead you to an answer for level 5 maybe? hehe
I have tried all those and then some Tosca...Seems so logical but just isnt working for us huh
not that kind of cheating, just the stop button
it must be something obvious...i mean, look at how easy level 1 to 4 are.
I agree lasers, but dang it just aint coming to me..Tried so many words pertaining to this..I will just keep on keeping on.
ive done it it took me 5 year but its done a webpage that combines all 6 earths together please everone look at it it is better in the nintendo wii internet ok the webpage is...
www.flashearth.com
then comment back here
musicman, what did you mean?!?!?
please explain :)
Rig - minor mistake. Thought we had the answer, but the web server hung and stayed on the next page, giving the illusion of the correct answer. Sorry. Still looking for the answer.
The answer of level 8 is in the popup, level 12 is about Macbeth ...
It's weird to play a game that way =D
ok m8, im off to bed so good luck! :]

thanks for reading
daniel parsons a.c.a flypen
goodnight everyone
goodnight
Good grief, I dont even know how to cheat ..To move on lol
Still stuck on level 5...Anyone still here?
I don't know the answer to #3! WHERE is this "Source Code" everyone keeps talking about? I have asked this on OTHER riddle games, nobody answered! Is there something wrong w/ my browser that I can't access the source code? I use Firefox.
Stuck in same place. What's annoying is I've seen this trick pulled before but can I remember it? No....even trying things like other fish names used when they are cured or smoked
freeway go to View at the top of the page and then click on Page Source
Freewaydog.. on your toolbar..go to view..scroll down to source..just copy and paste..it starts off like L1anfairpw77gwyngy,,dont remember exactly but it looks like jibberish..leave out the quotation marks
Ok, thanks, Lil!
for anyone not seeing source code:
level 2: Cordwood
level 3:
Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch
Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch is a place in Wales in the UK and it means St Mary's church in the hollow of the white Hazel near a rapid whirlpool and the church of Saint Tysilio of the red cave
Thanks, also, vbran. Now, I'm stuck on #5, too! I even tried changing 5 in my browser to 6 and it doesn't work! So, what IS the answer to "Red Herring?"?
Your Welcome...Im still here at 5 to..I cant cheat either..Doesnt work for me..Ive been searching all over the internet for this quiz and some clues..Its not happening..I have typed in over 50 words..to no avail.
Much more of this and I'm going to be a herring expert lol
I agree with you Lily
Okay this is a riddle game afterall..Just got a "maybe" clue from sons friend..On the tv cartoon show called "a pup named scooby doo" there is a character on the show called :Red Herring" Ive typed in cartoon and other stuff..still cant get it..We may even be thinking way to hard.
ARGH! I give up! :(
I shall be so cross if I wake in the night with the answer ( and I'll feel stupid too cos it may be obvious)
Hey, 'cordwood' isn't working for me - lvl 3 just shows briefly then flash back to lvl 1. Times like these I wish I was a hacker.
yep, I think its very obvious to..For level 3 its Cordwood check your capital.. Instead of starting over just hit your "back button..I found this out a while back from. rigmarole and einkaldir.
Cordwood must be typed with a capital first letter
Der Herr der Ringe...The Lord of the Rings film..Tried it all different ways..I still cant get past this level 5..Anyone still playing?
I am still playing...I am stumped on 5 also...
You got any clues tigereyes?
none...I have tried every single word I could think of and nothing...
answer to Red Herring is Freddie
Okay...I must be missing something because "Freddie" does not work for me.
No, freddie is not working for me either..dam I wish it would Joshua
I changed the spelling to "Freddy" and it still did not work...I must be having a slow day...
Did you move on to Level 6 Joshua? after using "Freddie"
Time for me to take a break...I can feel my brain frying as we speak...
I even tried "Freddie Herring" still cant move on.
Yep, Im going to take a break in a few..Will probably have to start on it again tommorow.. Maybe someone will have got this level by then...
Well I am back, is anyone still with me?
Yep, Im still here
any ideas yet?
Joshua, did you get "Freddie" from Scooby Doo?
No, Im trying all avenues to..
There is a Discovery Health add at the bottom of mine, so I went there and searched Red Herring, I think that was a huge waste of time. Oh and He must have got Freddie from Scooby Doo, because that is the only place I can think of when those two names come in contact with each other.
Okay, back to the Scooby Doo thingy..In the cartoon Freddy was always blaming crimes on a character named "Red Herring"
The cartoon was "A Pup Named Scooby Doo"
Now I am on google searching that show.
Scooby-Doo - Don Messick
Norville 'Shaggy' Rogers - Casey Kasem
Fred 'Freddie' Jones - Carl Steven
Daphne Blake - Kellie Martin
Velma Dinkley - Christina Lange
Red Herring - Scott Menville
Heres the characters..Still not working
haha I am looking at the exact same thing, I have tried every version of Fred's names that I can think of or see, and still nothing, wikipedia said that in the one episode freddie doesn't blame Red Herring, its when he actually did commit the crime...Maybe that has something to do with it.
In the source code, there's a red forward slash immediately after the address of the image. Is this just standard HTML,or a clue? Any web experts out there?
I think it's just part of the scripting, its in all the source codes of all the levels, thus far...
Okay, Im giving up for the night..Good luck Tigereyes..Maybe you can figure it out..If you do, please post it..Ill try again in the morning.
i still think it has something to do with the colors... they wouldnt be different, unless it's just to throw you off....
I thought that also...but I am off, I cant take much more of this. I may be back later
the color of the word "HERRING" is not 100% red...
in RGB color it is
254 Red (with 255 being the max)
0 green
0 blue
HSB is
0 H
100% S and
99% B
could this be anything?
i already tried the color number "FE0000" and that didnt do it...
Is the black 000000? or different as well?
black is 100% black
000000
i got no idea, the very last thing i could think of would be that the question itself is the "red herring" and that it is meant to distract you from something else... find out what that something else is, and we might find the answer... i'm out for now, i'll be back later, maybe tomorrow
I tried putting in Big lie because i believe one of you said red herring means something like a lie?
anyone get it yet?
So here I am back at it, level 5 still...anyone any closer?
The answer to Red Herring:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VQ6tJKJI9Bo
THANK YOU!!! I never would have gotten that!! Never...You rock my socks!!
Great Now I am stuck on 6...this really is a giant pain in my butt...why do I continue to agonize over it...
This is too much for my little brain to handle. I am going to move on to other games, I will check back to see if there has been any progress made.
Guys I need helppp! I think I'm finding the right answers but no matter what I put in the title bar I can't get to the next page!
level 7: click theniche.us link
level 8: enter "fishing"
level 6? i don't know :(
level 9, there is different color bellow the meow text.
use image editor..
What are you putting in the title bar? Anything i put in either brings me to page with the link back to level 1, or a 'this page cannot be displayed'... i can't figure it out!
Level 0: Click hidden link below: "Onward!"
Level 1: Enter "Cordwood" (taken from title bar)
Level 2: Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch
(taken from page source)
Level 3: "quite contrary"
Level 4: "88"
Level 5: "226526538951", file opened with winrar, password given
Level 6: "Hammersmith Odeon"
Level 7: Click link given
Level 8: "fishing"
Level 9: "underpants" slight variation in color underneath meow?
Level 10: "The Wallflowers"
Level 11: click ads
Level 12: it's a quote from Macbeth, stuck here though
level 11, click not by Google ads
actually just realized, the original quote is "the" not "thy"
perhaps a clue? or maybe just a typo on his part?
level 12 form action is going to level1.php
"thy cauldron of rebirth"
it's the end?
i think it designed to be unsolved, yet. give up!

Thank you Brandon for getting us past level 5.. up to 12. Im going to watch that again, and copy it down so I can do it in the future. How many levels does this game have again?
Flypen, I read your post from before to..I tried that over and over and it wouldnt work for me.
Stuck on 6. Hammersmith Odeon doesn't work for me.
Skynet, it actually shows level 6 picture in level 7 to..Just keep going with what Brandon said and you will move on
It says "page not found no url..Thats part of the game..click theniche highlighted in blue (the link)
Oh, ok. How odd. Didn't realise that was 7.
Thanks guys.
Round about the cauldron go;
In the poison'd entrails throw.
Toad, that under cold stone
Days and nights has thirty-one
Swelter'd venom sleeping got,
Boil thou first i' the charmed pot.
Stuck on 14.
Omg, I thought it ended at level 12according to previous post...I cant seem to get past level 12.
for level 12, you can't enter password in the usual box (brings back to level 1), so try elsewhere.
for level 14, the source tells where to find the password
for level 12, change the url to macbeth.html
level 13 is easy; bookworm
Yes it's easy, so stop giving the answers, hints are enough
level 14; booger
i'm on a roll

Thanks, Flypen. Just wont work for me. Im still stuck on 15..Been stuck so long now I wouldn't mind having the true answer.
Well I tried it over and over, I now have a blank page.. So whats happening now you guys?...
I am so giving up!
Oh come on now Freewaydog..We got to see this through..LOL..I have to say when I seen your last post, I felt the frustration, but by george, I did get a great laugh.I feel the same way...Gonna keep on keeping on though
Okay, Flypen I did manage to get here..I do have a blank page..Is this because level 17 (like you said, its still in the making).I get this url after I done what you said.http://theniche.us/zood/some.html Does this look right to you? If so, we now wait, right.
if you look in the source code it says "When did Virginia Hensley die?" i googled it and Patsy cline AKA virginia hensley died on 5th of march 1963, but i tryed this in add bar and didnt work.
Rigmarole what level are you working on?
http://theniche.us/zood/some.html
think its 17
nvmd, I see that to DUHhh..
#17 is 1963 = when patsy cline died
got any ideas on 18?
yeah but where do you put the answer tho?
in the text box. just type
1963 and it should work.
there isnt a text box for me just a blank screen with http://theniche.us/zood/some.html in the address bar?
really? thats strange. mine says this exactly. "THE ZOOD! THE HARDEST QUIZ ON THE INTERNET! LEVEL 17 WHEN DID VIRGINIA HENSLEY DIE?" then it has the lil box. try redoing 15 and see if it comes up.
level 17 only works in ff
ff = firefox?
so is anyone on 18 with me?
any answers? i've already checked "You're doing well, but you've still got a long way to go." as lyrics but i can't find anything.
i went through the quiz again and the advertisements are the same but i don't think they help and i don't think the page source helps either.
hoochiscrazy, did you get to level 18 by doing it by Brandons post or did you actually type something into the lil box on level 15,,If so, please give us the answer you typed in on level 15
yep on 18 now, lvl17 worked with ff! :P
What if you dont have FF.. I dont..Help
i did the cheat for 15 i don't got a clue what the answer really is.
i downloaded it took 2 mins, just dont check the box to transfer favorites ect and dont check box to have as default browser then uninstall later.
Done it!!! On level 18 now...Thank you so much
i can run, but never walk. i hath a mouth, yet do not talk. i hath a head, but never weep and in my bed i never sleep. what is my name? Thats 19's question.I'm not on it but felt like finding out what it is.
i think 18 is a temp end- cant find anything to go on and when i change the level in the url to 19 or 20, the page is unavailable, not wrong as before
hooch the thames is one
what welv? and i think that 19 exists cuz i couldnt cheat on alot of em.
dad says #19 is a river. too bad we're not on it.
any ideas on 18 then-i know 19
in the walkthrough it says to enter cordwood which I did but it sent me back to first level?
i think the quiz has 32 levels. if you keep doing the cheat it shows you the question for a few seconds up until 33 and so on. they could be like the one that was macbeth.php but i doubt it.
reddc you have to capitalize the 'C" Cordwood
