Great! Thanks Jon!
Thanks for the game Jon!
“If you can't annoy somebody, there is little point in writing.” (that's a hint by the way!)
nudge for 5 ????
And as usual with these riddle games, level 1 already has me stumped. I just KNOW I'm overlooking something blatantly obvious, but...
perhaps look at 5 from a different angle
for level 1, find the poem online....there are a few errors in my version
will pick this up tomorrow. xaq - check the original and note the differences.
...*facepalms* Thanks JTW.
That was great fun, thanks so much Jon, and thanks for the hint!
*brickwalls at 3* "Can you find the name of a famous English writer in this?"
No. No I can't. Author names =/= my strong suit. :[
Xac, check my first comment here
...Okay, wow, somehow I figured that's right where the answer was, but I was using too many letters.
Weird.
But, again, thanks. *moves on to Lv 4*
Fun as always! Thanks Jon :)
Made it 2 more levels, but 6 has me confused. Am I doing the opposite of what I did in 5?
good idea xaq ;)
maybe, but it doesn't seem to be working. :[
remember, the number you are looking for has to be backwards ;)
I knew that much...where I was screwing up was what number one of the letters becomes. I forgot to capitalize it first.
DUHHH. On to 7.
Yaaay, made it through the rest on my own. I feel much better now...'specially after that victory video.
Thanks a bunch, guys!
Got Lvl 3 from your clue Jon. But can't see why - can't see the connection with the puzzle clue.
Now stuck on Lvl 4.
Is the spelling mistake intentional? Or are we looking for something else?
Oops - NVM. Saw the answer.
Lvl 5.
I am stuck on 4 also
All done - rest were easy.
Fun waste of time Jon. Thanks.
sorry Ashley, my mistake with the typo! :(
the answer to 4 is toward the end of the text....
hint on 4?
$ uses the same trick as 3, you are looking for an African country
my typing has gone to blazes....$ = 4
Cheers John, I enjoyed that.
Glad to see you back :D
Answer to Lvl 3 is by sound Jon? I can sort of see it now when I go back to check.
Or did I miss something else?
@EnJoy, look for a G and follow it...
thanks Rambler....I have got the drive back to start making games again :)
Excellent news then. Catch you soon....
I got it now. thanks jon
level 3: "dream is" contains the authors name
oh thanks Rambler.. didn't see your hint
So the answer to Lvl 3, Jon, is more by sound?
Or did I miss something else?
Seems to me we would have to know a bit about literature without your forum clue to help.
Okay - ignore last query. I was thinking of the word "famous" - the sound is there. Completely missed "dream is".
But my other comment still stands, I think.
yes, I realised he might not immediately jump out to many people, I had to include the quote from him to be fair to players
Thanks jonthewatch, glad to hear (read) you're going to be creating again!
what am I doing wrong in 6?
SPOILER53177197714SPOILER
@jon, his boy can write a bit too!!
on 6, not in 6
not 9 Enjoy, think of the capital letter perhaps
Joyce, that's not quite right, try again. The 19 should be an 8 ( I think)...
Oh pop... an 8 not a 9
LOL @ EnJoy, I use POP as a swear word at work now. Just like you just typed - Oh pop.....
Righto, time for bed. Good night my friends..
Ha! goodnight @Rambler and thank you Jon! I little out of practice on these :)
That was fun Jon, Thank you :)
I may be late to the game, but I'm eager to have a go! Jon's games are always great fun.
Thanks Jon. I enjoyed that a lot.
Every time I press answer it takes me to a page saying "Page not Found".
tishtosh, a wrong answer will take you to the "Page not Found" Are you on level 1?
I enjoyed the video at the end as well, Jon. Thanks.
tishtosh...to get you started. Read the poem and note that there are missing letters. No need to anagram those missing letters, they make a word. Type that word in lowercase into the answer box, click the answer button and it will take you to the next level.
SPOILERhaledSPOILER
That was fun, thanks Jon :)
thanks jon, delighted to see your riddles again hopefully more soon
Jon - great to see you making these again. I think the amount of levels is just right, and I can always get through these because of all the great hints others (and you) give!! Thanks!
Donas & Clio Rose, thanks, I'm embarrassed to say I did have the wrong answer. I was sure I had it correct, :) Thanks for your help.
This was just what I needed! Took me a little longer than my cup of coffee though (well something stronger actually). Thanks a lot Jon, I enjoyed it. I hope you are gonna Waste my Time a lot in the near future :)
Thanks Jon! Just a couple days ago I realized I hadn't seen any riddles posted in ages.
Great video too :)
Any help for level 2? I found the missing letters, but no idea which of the infinite possible manipulations I need to perform.
For level 2, the missing letters are in order, one per line to give you a 6 letter word.
Thanks! The extra "t" in "there were" kind of threw me. I wonder why it's there?
Proof that cats are liquid! Thanks Jon. That one was the most fun yet. Had to take my glasses off for 7 and would never have got 3 without the hint but, for the rest I had a good brain day, for a change :)
Great! Thank you!
I got here a little late but I still enjoyed it LOL. Thank you Jon!!! That was great!!
