Need 3 and 5.

3, I've got 'Draw Idol'? 'Aid World'? Never heard of any of the games an anagram site definitely didn't give me because I didn't use one. Honest.
>.>
<.<

5, haven't the foggiest.

You have obviously translated the 3rd puzzle incorrectly. Go back, and try again. That should help.

For 5, it's a pretty new game, developed by Activision. Just wiki them, and you should get it sooner or later.

Your puzzles can't overcome our collective minds :)

Are you challenge us? *evil grin*

Lol i was listening to the mortal kombat theme song and your avatar was dancing perfectly to it ! :D

Completed the first stage of 2-4. Managed to work out what the crap means. Now to decipher it.

XxRyanxX:
Can anyone help me with #1 3 and 4 for Day 2 please...? I got #2 thanks to a spoiler one of the people gave me on here...but the other spoilers I didn't understand in the least. I'm sorry for being slow, but I really want to pass this. Please help!


3) I have no idea ( this isn't I hint, I can't solve it (yet))

I tried binary, but at the 2nd grouping, it the value was way above 26.

Ok, i'm back to binary. 28 groupings, 14 different patterns. Then perhaps a substitution cipher. There are 5 instances of one pattern, I'll make a 'e'.

You are on the wrong track. Kind of. You do have to translate from binary, but you need to turn it INTO binary first. Try finding another common code, and see if it works.

Bloody Hell, That's awesome

Quantum Roberts:
Now now. Never fear. Y'see it all comes down to Shrodinger. The cat is either one OR the other.

Damn it; I was too confused by the fact that there's actually a game called

to think of that. Thanks.

Fox242:
Here's a hint for those who don't want to type into Google:

Please allow me to introduce myself, I am a man of wealth and taste, but also have some sympathy for me as I am a fortunate son and I will not back down until I solve all of these riddles and help all of you.

Number 5 took me all of two seconds to solve because I happen to have a poster for this game directly on the wall about ten feet behind me. Thanks to everyone else to gave me the clues needed to solve 2,3, and 4.

i had it open to the press start screen right next to me cuz i thought this would be fast, its the exact same pic, i just looked over and was like wait... I SEE WHAT U DID THERE!

It is, actually. Just, after I've translated it from binary, I've gotten kinda stuck...

if you google your answer, it should show up. hint: location.
from there, who was he?
*Edit*: I think this is the best one so far.

Day 2, #3 is buggering hard!!!

GingerCactus:

zombiestrangler:

Tilt your head and think of space.

Cheers for that, finally got it!

Seriously this is doing my head in, I must have just not heard of this game...
Another hint please?

DrEmo:
Hints:
Number one:

Number 2:

Number 4:

Number 5:

My incorrect original answers (What I thought at first glance.)
1. Metroid: Other M (They look like m's)

2. Bioshock (Little sisters)

3. Didn't know.

4. Rez (Music, the brain... yeah...)

5. Silent Hill (I thought it was a name etched into the spine of a book. The color scheme reminded me of a survival horror game.)

Ive gotten all but Day 2 number 3, working on finding a title with all those letters.

Number 4 took me a little bit, The Clue/hint is a major help for the steps you need to take.
The Picture may look daunting, but only 1/5 of it is all you need to focus on!

...Yyeeaahh... I still don't get #4 i'm sorry... and i've been working on #3 like crazy. Also that I solved (Thanks to you guys) #1 and #2... but, #4 is so confusing I can't even break the code down XD haha. But, need an easy hint or something that's like... idk, helpful cause I read the comments and still mislead @_@ BUT I did get #1 :D

Glamorgan:

I've tried everything I can think of :-(



I just don't get it!
*smashes forehead against keys*

OH MY GOD, I JUST GOT 2-2.

Another blindingly obvious one. The clue, "A lout of van swerves", actually explains to you how to find the answer.

Try saying that to yourself a few times, without any verbal bias: "Aloutofvanswerves". If you're still struggling to work that one out, send me a message.

And, another:

Nup, totally flummoxed.
I quit.

Day 2, #4 is just brutal. I was able to convert those images to decimal by substituting those dots and dashes for binary, but now I'm kinda stuck. Did learn binary though, so not a total loss. Can't figure out 2 or 3 either. :(

Oh God, I had 2-2 for AGES, I just didn't think it was right so I didn't try to enter it.
I'm a silly :P

Okay, time to find 2-3 and 2-4

Day 2 is making me its little bitch. I've only solved the first one. I've tried saying the second one again and again but I can't make any more sense of it than I can of the third. I've translated/transliterated the fourth but I can't figure out what it has to do with anything. Boo. Anyone feel like giving me some hints? They'd be greatly appreciated.

Well,

Just deciphered 2-3. Here's a hint:

I can't get no. 5 from day 1.....someone help me with a tiny hint.

I used google, using what information I could gather from the posts and the picture.

Josdeb:
Well,

OK! Thanks for the hint.

Now to figure out 2-4... This one is not coming easily.

minarri:

Now to figure out 2-5... This one is not coming easily.

2-5? Do you mean 1-5 or 2-4?

Okay so I don't think I even understand the instructions for 2-3.

The words are mixed up but the letter within each word are still correct?

For example:

xRxxInxxgs
xoxf
xxxLoxrdx
xxthex

would be "Rings of Lord the", ergo "The Lord of the rings"? Is that the same logic they want me to apply to this puzzle?

Josdeb:

minarri:

2-5? Do you mean 1-5 or 2-4?

... 2-4. See that's how fried my brain is.

Haha, I feel you.
I have no idea what to do.
People are saying to use Binary, but I keep getting random characters or random numbers. Anybody, feel free to inbox me about, like, a process of things to do.

Josdeb:

Yes, you're on the right track. Almost there, in fact. Just figure out what

But that gives me numbers in the high hundreds, what do?

Really? It shouldn't...
