Challenge 3/27
Posted by Pha. Pharaoh Sphinx Singapore

Reloaded with a second recording - hear the sexy voice!

And the knight returns (7/6)! This was originally planned for Level 8. But as explained earlier, Level 8 will likely consist of only 3 challenges.

The revised mastermind increased the number of tries to [Read More]

Challenge split
Posted by Pha. Pharaoh Sphinx Singapore

The original 3/7 - Wrong labels - has been split into 2 challenges.

The revised 3/7 retains the original intent of the challenge, but with a modified Part 2. If you've already solved the old 3/7, you need not solve the revised version - though you may want to solve it [Read More]

3/3: Nice try!
Posted by Pha. Pharaoh deo Brazil

Hello,

I don't know if this is intentional, but the file has an additional blank line in the beggining.

The problem is: those who are using windows won't notice any difference, but people on linux will fail to indentify the file format...  [Read More]

I notice that the challenge name has changed. Has the file changed too? For the old version I have found the home and it spit out a filename but couldn't find it anywhere.

Challenge 8/3
Posted by Pha. Pharaoh Sphinx Singapore

Finally it's up ;)

Harder to find ideas for this level, so I'm happy and "relieved" that it eventually arrived.

There'll probably be only three Level 8 challenges. This is to limit the number of weak links and make it more challenging to progress to Level 9. [Read More]

Added the 100th challenge!
Posted by Pha. Pharaoh Sphinx Singapore

That was a bit of an exploration for me, because I've never done any recording ;)

The next target is 135 challenges - 3 faces of the Pyramid!
