Level 31

[Swan]

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.

I've found the map corresponding to this level.  I also figured out the clue and how the stations are translated to a word.  I'm assuming that I need another list of stations to translate to get the answer to the level.  But I can't find it.

I noticed that the mouse cursor changes shape over the ******* ****.  But nothing happens when I click there or when I try to drag the mouse accross, etc.  I'm waiting for a tooltip of anysort to pop up over the mouse pointer or in the status bar.  Does this level work in all browsers?  I tried using Firefox, Opera and Explorer, but the rabbit still does nothing.

Hi there, registered because me and a friend both thought this kinda strange. Anyways, we used the clue to find the second part to this level but we're not sure if it's working as intended or not as we can't progress any further. Can someone check into this please? Alternatively you can PM me and I can give you what we have so we don't spoil it for others. Thanks.

It's working fine. Now just figure out how what you've found correlates to the clue and you're almost there.

I have figured out that part, how to translate and have the translated word from the bunny but it doesnt seem to take me anywhere.

[TookiTheGreat]

I don't understand what the rabbit is hiding?

Added Sat Dec 16 11:24:09 2006 :
To be more precise: I solved the clue, that much is clear. And then? This doesn't give me an answer, it only shows that I can decode place names into characters. Whoohoo! The bunny rabbit is interesting, but doesn't seem to give away much. The pointer points but what does it point to? Once again I could use some help.

[TookiTheGreat]

Do I need to understand the french notice above the rabbit? I think I know what it means, but does this imply the rest of the puzzle has a French connection (other than the French Underground)?

[bidipe]

The rabbit says : "caution, don't put your hands on the door..."
Don't listen to him and look everywhere...

[phreakymonkey]

Yes, it would do you well to read Toma's hint again.

[TookiTheGreat]

OK. I got it. Thanks guys. I think I need a better monitor or better glasses, or both :-(. (A better brain might also help).

[p0rky]

I'm totally clueless on this level, I can't seem to decipher Toma's hint either, can anyone supply a little extra help?

[glouton]

If the sage is pointing at the moon that means he can actualy see it. I've you ever point at something you can't see?

[eightbithero]

not sure if i'm being dumb or if it's not working, but I got the answer i needed for the second part of the puzzle.  however, whenever i try to put it into the URL it gives me a 404 error.  i've tried (answer).htm and (answer).html, both don't work.  is there more that i'm missing?

[phreakymonkey]

Your answer is wrong, double check it carefully. I've spoken to at least one other person who jumped to conclusions and got the second half wrong.
