Maybe the people who were close to finishing the test will just get mad at the people who posted then answers because, after all, it's their fault!  As long as it's clear we're not doing ot just to irritate them.

so the followtheangel thread is now buried on the third page of mx0, should we keep bumping it to the top or just let it die and resurrect it when there is a new test?  or maybe start a new thread at that time altogether?

I was thinking about that too... thing is, they have no way of being recruited with the path down. Nothing for them to follow... we are about 70 posts in from of the next biggest thread

How do you look at the total posts to verify that?

I can not seem to figure that out.... [/accepts that he is a dumbass]

What an edjit. He should die a gruesome and horrible death in the darkest ,murkiest corners of a neverending dungeon and burn in the deepest,hottest pits of hell where hope is lost for all eternity. :/

In the Desert of the Real main section, you can see the amount of posts before you go into each thread.

I like the new challenge Tbone! I was able to figure out this one heh.

[Anonymous]

That was odd...is there a new challenge? I'm getting "node temporarily disabled"...or is that a part of the new challenge? I went in the wrong direction?

[Ketamininja]

no, thats the old challenge.
The node (that gives you info on the next step) has been disabled, as the posted info tells you how to get to the node.

It doesn't give you info on anything after that, therefore those who passed the node challenege know where to look.

Yes, I completed the new one as well. Just kinda use what you know from the last one. It will keep new people on their toes, but not be impossible for people who were on the right track to figure out. Good one Tbone.

[Anonymous]

Hmmm..is it like I can start from the very beginning of the challenge and still get through? Or do I have to start at a specific point in it?


Is the challenge finished or do I have to jump an URL or two forward to get to the new one?

[Anonymous]

No one can get through right now unless they have the old page cached locally or their ISP has the old page cached and has for some unfathomable reason failed to check for an update.

[Anonymous]

Sooooo...Hidden and Keta didn't get through?

Let me start by saying I'm not a PhP programmer, so I'm not sure how the cookie/ip thing works. But wouldn't it be cool if there were, say at least 3 start threads to the puzzle (randomly choosen), and 8 or more clues that appeared randomly at each stage, for each person (mix-n-match) but ended up with only 5 challenges for each person. Let the server track to person. You might have to get a name for each challenger in order to personalize each set of challenges. A lot of work, but WOW, something totally different from what is already been done. **gravy**
