Hacker Puzzle

Remove all ads!

Not sure where to put this, not sure if it's even posted before. Anyway, it's a really nice puzzle with the internet. Really test you logic and knowledge. Can be quite a challenge. You can use Google or Yahoo to assist you but no short cuts.

Btw, it took me 40 minutes. And when you do reached an all black screen, do something. It chucked off a lot of my time because I thought something was wrong with my loading and I kept refreshing the screen. And timing was done manually. Enjoy... ojofuffo!

Hacker Puzzle! by freestuffhotdeals.com

 

How many pages it have? I reached 9th page in less than 1 minute but can't go to 10th page

Edit: What the hell is this ojo... thing?

Edit2: a lot of goggling and a little cheat to go to page 20 (I found the exact answer in a forum while searching). And at last, granny is dancing

I've played many that were harder than this. Other than a slight hitch at 15 (Buchanan - I started looking up clans), it didn't get properly hard until 19, and excluding 15 the rest took me about 5 minutes. But at 19 it became fun.

EDIT: And then gets easy again. 19 was the only properly hard one.

 

lol...

Hmmm...not speaking a differnet language, I searched around a bit for the meaning of page 8's hint and found that it was dutch, but when I type in 'negen' (three online translators said that means 'nine') I can't get to page 9.

But I got to page 8 very quickly.

 

@Kitrax... you complicated some things too much, take Uranus as it is normally use, you know, in astronomy.

 

Hehehehe...I know. I just felt like quoting that. I got past that page just as quiclky as the others. Everyone knows that Neptune is the next planet out...

It's getting past the 'acht' that's got me stuck.

 

Kit,

Try German spellings

 

I got stuck on page 9, the clue is "sept"...which is french for 7...but where to go from there I have no idea, clue anyone?

 

You're thinking on the wrong track, after being shunted there by the "acht" clue. You need to think of a situation where Sept is nine, so to speak.

BTW, I've managed to get as far as 21, but my brain has melted. I'm gonna have a shower to cool it down and come back...

EDIT: solved the bastard! Now on 22...

... And it's done! Dance granny, DANCE!!!

It's not too hard, but 15 is kicking my ass - what on earth does buchanan mean?

 

HINT: you're much more likely to get it if you're American (or USAnese, or whatever they've decided to call 'em in that other thread )

 

Do I get extra credit if I got to the last page by cheating?

 

Well...it took a lot of wasted time an a google search to get past page 19...but I finally got to page 23. And for what? A dancing cartoon? Bah! I could have been doing my homework!

*grumble* *grumble* *grumble*

 

I got the dancing lady, ojofuffo was fun as were icosa- and 10946

 

Mesmero: I think that's the best answer for a hacker.

 

Wooo, finished!...thanks to the Magpie for the clue, I think I would have given up otherwise

I don't know about anyone else but ojofuffo was just blindingly obvious lol...bachanan took me a while, but I finally found a connection between the page number and the word.

I enjoyed that

 

I started doing 10946 by hand after all google got me was book numbers. I reckognised the series instantly, but didn't realise that excel could be used until i got up to 381 on the paper.
Very nice Mesmero!

 

Easy, easy. Buchanan was the hardest

 

I can't get past the icosahedron, still can't.
