lol Rambler. ;D
was thinking about speed of ethernet,
but have to eat now,
see you all later :)
speed of ethernet??? WTF?
Hmmm, I have S, S, C, P, S, F/B, P/F and S.
From here: http://www.jososoft.dk/yamaha/articles/midi_8.htm
Well, I looked up what kind of instruments those numbers are in MIDI, but nothing (I get the letters SSCPSFPF).
Hang on, those are the instruments. Ignore my last comment lol
I got: SVCPSMPS
Shouldn't we looking for the notes?
And If I try to transform those letter into numbers and then into MIDI again I get:
PREDPMDP. :(
Looking at that same page, I got:
64 D1 - D6
55 F1 - C5
43 C1 - C5
89 C-2 - G8
105 C-2 - G8
36 C0 - C3
76 C3 - D6
50 C1 - A6
Not very helpful :o(
But what notes? The notes to tune those instruments? But a lot of those instruments are synthesizer instruments and I don't think they have a keynote.
try using this link:

Thanks once again Spela. Off to hunt notes...
np=)
Thanks Špela,
On 19 now.
Hahahaha, got it, and I have it all over mine lol
And of course 19 was easy for me.
Thx Spela, on lvl 19 now ;)
@s-t, so quickly. I guessing it's a cocktail. Am I on the right line?
Yep, never heard of it though...
Yep Rambler, just combine the two drinks. Google them.
Why isn't level 20 Loco Moco?
on lvl20 now, never heard of it, but google with clue on pic and name of pic and voila
Hahahahaha, I just realised what you were talking about....
ok al lot of food on lvl 20, lots of pictures, see also the numbers are not in order the pictures are
OMG I'm soo behind!! I was watching my bro playing videogame!
7 kinds of food, guess we need a word of 7 letters :P
on 19! help?
@Nini, this is one of the easiest ones, google what you see and think of small-tool :o)
@nini
google with clue on pic and name of pic and voila
20!
lol.. w/ some help of my father got to 20 lol
2 = tempra
4 = tacos?
@carola, got the 7 eggs, but I'm no further forward on the names of the food.
Okay, just had a thought, google Hawaiian food
so far I have found this for lvl 20
1
2
3 Red B*****t S**p
4 B*****o
5 D******a
6 c*****t s**p
7 S********g
2 is tempra Im sure.
@rambler, every picture has another source hint.
enter the name of pics in as an answer to see the next page.
@nini, no it is used for it, it is a Bu***to ;)
@nini, yes 2 is T*****a
Okay, I see from the posts that Hawaiian only refers to the first dish I think (I can't really see Hawaiians enjoying Borscht lol). But there are no page sources on the egg pages. Grrr
Oh, thanks Carol, I'm on it now...
1= L**o M**o
2= T****a
3 = ?
4 = B*****o
5= ?
6= ?
7 =?
1 = ChiliMoco
http://www.hisurf.com/hawaii-food/zippys-hawaii-restaurants.html
so have all 7 now...
Carola, I see you do them all in spoilers.
I didn't because it's not the end answer, but should I delete my post?
will remove previous post in a few minutes, because of the names
@small-tool, I don't mind, it's ok to me, but I thought it's not allowed to do it, so that's why i used spoilers, but no problem for me :P
There's anumber on the pic. Maybe It happens w/ all?
Yep the numbers are
3, -1, 3, 1, 2, 2, -2.
@nini, yes that's what i meant with the order of the pics is not the order of the numbers
Following the numbers on each name I got: iardoon. Didn't work of course.
so
1 2 3 4 5 6 + 3, -1, 3, 1, 2, 2, -2.=
4 1 6 5 7 8 5=
lthimsy ??
Tried the 3th letter from the first word, then the 2nd (3-1=2) letter from the second word etc. but nothing.
Also tried the first letter from the first word + alphabetical 3 letters. Then first letter of second word minus 1 letter etc. but nothing.
six another name for soup:
6 Thai soup = coconut soup // Tom Kha Gai
gives : lthimya
anagram gives: Almithy
but doesn't work
Yum, just finished my Spag Bol. Back to the cyber cuisine action lol
Anyone still here? I am stuck on level 7 (surprised I made it this far!)
It is the one where you flip the cards over and a painting is revealed.. I am googling and tin-eyeing which is not working.. any hint on the painting name?
Enjoy I found it on TinEye!
@enjoy use tin-eye on the card with the head or body of the lady, or dicribe the whole picture, like white dress, etc and google it in google image
Maybe I don't know how to use tin eye correctly. Did you put the URL into tin eye? I tried that and I downloaded the picture from a save file.. nothing.
Googling now "painting woman long white dress lily pond" and still searching
@Enjoy, check the SC too for snatches of text.
I should add that each image has it's own SC, but not all of them have some extra text.
also tried:
* Banoori
* Baronio
* Barooni
* bonario
* Boroian
* Boronia
* Robonia
= anagram of 3 (3th letter first word), -1(last letter 2nd word), 3, 1, 2, 2, -2(2nd last letter of last word) etc.
didn't work
can I already DELETE my comment :Carola 12/29/10 10:33 AM
With all the answers of pics?
yeah.
@Carola, as far as I know you can delete your own posts whenever you like. Knock yourself out lol
@Rambler, lol, I mean if everybody coppied it so I can delete it ;)
I will delete my comment with pic answers too.
@Carol, I see what you mean.
Okay your post is safely copied to Word. For my part you can hit the bin!!!
OMG.. I think I got it in tin eye!!!
Well done Enjoy :o)
finnaly got 20...
- and + numbers show if you take the letter from the beggining or the end of word...
and maxican dish is t**o and not b*****o
Thanks Špela.
21 now.
Haha!! I knew it!! Tacos!!!!
Got ladtoon ?!
Thx Spela, that's what I did, see comment 10:57
but had the first word and the T**o wrong. Thx!
on lvl 21 :)
lol lvl 21!
im at lvl 22...but i dont really know how i got 21...more or less lucky=)
What's a basic code?
on second lvl of lvl 21 now,
I'm still in 21 bu part 2.
first part of lvl21:
cipher: Decimal to Ascii
Now we have to follow the grid ?
@small tool:
http://www.purplehell.com/cgi-bin/riddles/decimal.pl
for second part find the letters from numbers from part 1
Thanks Carola already found that with your first hint.
found: quimb on 2nd part, if you take the letters in the grid on the position of the numbers of the first part of the level. Think I'm on the right way, but made an mistake.
lol Spela just saw that clue on Nord!
@Špela, lol, again same thinking, so I was thinking right, will look again
apyph?!
lvl 22 now!
Hm . name of pic on 22 = 25
maybe the anwer is a combo of the 2 colors on 2nd and 5th place.
s-t anagram ur 2nd answer.
s-t anagram
Thanks Nini xD.
on lvl22, so stupid, was counting the blocks in the grid, like 84th block ;) but was warm lol
Maybe we're using GIMP on this one.
Maybe mixing the colors so the first would be Purple, second maybe Cyan, but don't know about the others.
Hm.. since the pic's name is 25, I tried changed it's matrix to 25 as well. The colors changed. But what for? lol.
im at 23...for 22:
just google pictures: color pairs
on lvl 23
google colorpairs and than convert numbers to letters for lvl22
Great Špela.
Can't!
oh ! POP!
Hm... morse code there.
yes, but if you can split the morse on many ways and get other letters... :(
everthing about silver:
http://chemistry.about.com/od/elementfacts/a/silver.htm
for morse:
http://www.purplehell.com/riddletools/morse.htm
I got something..
The Riddle of the Third Mile (1983) -- This one is a real winner! Sort of a Michael Innes romp involving the definitely non-donnish escapades of some quintessentially donnish Oxford dons.[i] Not a typical Morse, but a great mystery novel.[/i] The schemes and motivations and settings are wonderful. The fictitious Lonsdale College, which figures in many Morse books, is one locus, London's Soho strip clubs another, and the Oxford canal a third
lol bet that's nothing to do! lol
the formula =
e (mathematical constant)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E_(mathematical_constant)
scroll down on wiki for the same formule (see previous comment)
e can be represented as an infinite simple or generalized continued fraction due to Euler:
Hm... maybe a word that encompasses both words? (morse and constant)
formula is also called PELL number of Euler
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pell_number
IS SILVER RATIO!!
Yeah carola!!!
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silver_ratio
is the page we need, I guess
I think we have to combine it w/ the morse signs.
@nini, yes, but the morse is hard because there are no spaces, so many possibilities
or Carola.. maybe we don't even have to decode the morse code. Just make a word wich encompasses the silver ratio and the morse
the first letter could be: E, F, I or U
so where starts the 2nd letter...
Gotta leave for a while. Come back soon!
The silver ratio is the way to divide the morse symbols.
On 24 now.
Well 24 is about Bonnie and Clyde.
@s-t, but that gave me : INNAAIMIE ?!?
The silver ratio can also be defined by the simple continued fraction [2; 2, 2, 2, ...]:
so seperate every two...
great s-t tnx!
been trying to find the connection for quite a while...:/
The first is made of two morse symbols so that's an I indeed, but the second would be four symbols and that's a C then 1 symbol etc.
nvm, got it
it's not the frequention, but the number itself ;)
On 24 the source gives the date they shot Bonnie and Clyde.
The picture is called fusillade and that was a fusillade of 2 minutes and 167 bullets.
Now what to do with half an half?
is it possible that the halfs refer to bonnie and clyde? al to halfs of a pair?
the same picture is on wiki and is written:
Posse suffered deafness for hours after unleashing the thunderous fusillade.
thought it has to do with deafness, but not.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bonnie_and_Clyde
tekst on wiki with "half" in it:
half-a-dozen bank robberies
@Bilge, the silver ratio = 2,414213
Tried the halves of their surnames together
and got barker and parrow, but no go.
Hi guys! I'm back and on 24!
lvl 24 half and half has nothing to do with the names, but with the eggs of this level, there are 2 more pictures!!!!
what're the names:?
Oh dang! Gtg go! Dinner time!. Brb.
Great find Carola, but I can't get those pictures. Where are the words to use as .jpg?
Put the two pics together, but don't recognise the symbol of dots together.
For the to pictures, enter the first names in the answer bar :)
Thanks, that was too simple.
have made this of the dots, but don't know what to see:
http://www.carolagame.frih.org/pictures/bonnie_clyde.png
Back! Thx Carola for the pics hint.
I think it's a kind of a "dot code" (like a barcode) but I can't find a reader or converter.
Braille?
Got it, it's braille alphabet.
Probably.
6 letters.
oh god.
on 25 now.
U used Carola's pic s-t?
if you're still stuck on lvl24
http://www.carolagame.frih.org/pictures/bonnie_clyde.png
and use also to translate this picture above http://www.purplehell.com/riddletools/braille.htm
25!
@Nini xD , yes, that picture, made it more clear now in this picture, wrote lines for you
oh god ! More images on 25!
Hm.. we don't have earth there.
lvl 25 , Stars of Destiny
Nor Pluto. (which is no longer a planet) :D
Great Carola! Now for a bunch of chinese names.
Chikai Star is the chief of Earth.
So now we have to find the names of the guys on the 7 pictures? HOw?
so far, have:
Mercury =Gongsun
Saturn =Hua
Venus = Guan
Mars = Suo
Jupiter = Dai
Uranus = Wu
Neptune = Lei
will delete this post later
s-t. I was thinking since earth is not there that the answer might be the name of Earth Star.
Thanks Carola, how did you find it? Looked everywhere but couldn't find it
Me neither s-t. I only get stuff like:
Tenfu Star (Star of Wealth)
etc...
@s-t,
type the planets in the answer bar and look in source of each planet ;)
and a lot on wiki ;)
I need help on lvl 7. I dont have paint and couldnt find it on TinEye. :( Please help?
The 108 Stars of Destiny are translated into the 36 Heavenly Spirits and the 72 Earthly Fiends. Other titles for the Stars of Destiny include The 108 Stars of Heavenly Earth and The 108 Stars of Heaven and Earth.
there is also a serie about it: The Water Margin
Hm.. maybe if we count how many ppl among the 36 and 72.
dang they're all Heavenly Spirits
Got it, you need their ranks.
Thx s-t! 26!
Missing 3 hearts on 26. Google translator here I go!
