Rules :

- DO NOT post answers, links, screenshots or level's elements. You'll get banned if you spoil the pleasure of others, even if they ask for.

If you request some help :

Don't be too specific but don't be too vague. It's rather hard to find the right way to ask but imagine yourself in a room with other players. You can't whisper and you need to solve a riddle, you have the right to ask for a clue those who have already solved it, but you don't want the other players to find before you. To understand what you're asking for, one should be at the same step. Don't spoil the steps for the others ! You can use metaphors if you want. Show us that you're smart!

Read this topic carefully, your question may have already been asked (and answered). There's no need to ask the same question twice, even if there's no answer.

If you help somebody :

Don't help him too much, don't deprive him the pleasure to find by himself, just guide him on the way without being too specific, using as much images, metaphors and maybe other riddles as you can. After all, you're smart too ;)!

If everybody plays by the rules, things will be much more funny and no one will get hurt.

Write in a correct language, ban SMS style and try to avoid spelling mistakes as much as possible.

Well, I found what I needed, s*******, but when I type it in, it leads me nowhere. Is this working as intended, or do I need to do something else?

All that you need to solve this puzzle is given to you. Dont get frustrated with it like it did for a while - just be patient

You know, this one is really giving me a headache.  Is this normal, or at least to be expected?

Hi all, have I been patient enough by not moving at all? Nothing seems to be happening. When I get impatient, moving round and round looking for something, I found nothing. I copied them and put them side by side to form the big picture, but saw nothing as well. Any clues?

Alright I found the s****** clue, and I assume by the hints in here I need to apply something from another puzzle.  Most likely reflexion or yin-yang, but I've tried everything I can think of from those and still am not getting it.

I am nearly blind in one eye. Can anyone confirm that you don't need two good eyes to solve this? I can't see stereoscopic images.

No need for two good eyes. It's not stereoscopic.

Does the 'be patient' mean I have to wait for something to happen?  I've been staring at a blank white square for nearly 20 minutes now.

Wrong way... wonder why the flash image is much bigger than the window...
Titre: Re: Level 19
Posté par: JHolla le 8 Janvier 2007, 08:53:15
You need a monitor that has sufficient brightness for this one (as well as for several other levels).  The answer was quite obvious on my laptop; however, on another monitor, the solution was impossible to find.  Adjust your brightness or just find a different display and then search again.  You'll find it.

Err, what flash image.  Is there supposed to be an image of something?  I can see the Clue button and the save icon but just a blank white square above that.

You should be seeing an image that looks somewhat like a spiderweb.  Or maybe cotton fibers, but just a really, really close up view.  Try refreshing the image, or maybe reloading your browser.

Mmmm, it seems Firefox likes this level but IE7 doesn't.  I can't see the image using IE7 (which is strange because it's worked fine for all the levels so far), but Firefox shows it.  Oh well back to it.

I can't believe i'm having so much trouble with this one, on it for two days now. I have found the address that others have talked about but are there any other hints people can give aside from being patient and opening my eyes??

OK, I've seen the light. I just don't know what to do with it. Please help me. :)

Edit: AH-HA! Got it! Very clever, although I've seen this tactic used before, it still got me. :)

Tip for the rest of you: Once you have seen the light, you have found the path and no error can stop you.

Ok, everyone here is preaching patience.  But there is another way of going about it which I used.  And it is using one of your utilities that you have used in many previous levels.  Using this utility will make the answer really stand out.

I'm just completely completely stuck still. Its doing my head in! I feel like I have tried absolutely everything. I hate to admit defeat but I think this one has beaten me!

phreakymonkey: Are you asking for assistance? We need to know what you're stuck on before we can give you any hints. Please be more specific if you're going to post in the help forum.

Au contraire, you do see it! Please reread the following post for the best clues.....#3, #13, #37 & #38.
If that doesn't help, then reread them again. And if that still doesn't help them reread them yet again. etc, etc, etc      :D

My brightness adjustments are broken on my monitor.  Am I looking for s******* or am I looking for something entirely different that the brightness would affect?

Pay the above statement no mind. It was made by a naive player, who thought he had it all figured out, so early in the game. I can assure that ANY monitor will do just fine for ANY level!! Just remember, there's more than one way to skin a cat!  ;)

When you find a needle do you just throw it back in the haystack before giving it a good hard once over?
