Regarding articles
Posted by Pha. Pharaoh Sphinx Singapore
After much deliberation, we decided to remove the articles. It was a little "painful" to do because much work had been done and it's quite cool actually...but it had been there and it was not used much if at all. We could of course leave it there but it wo [Read More]

Level 4/9 The rising knight
Posted by Geb. Geb quangntenemy Vietnam
Err I think there's something wrong with this challenge. I found all the possible paths (there are 6 of them) and tried them all manually. They all passed the js but all gave me the wrong answer :(

3/20 Typo
Posted by Geb. Geb quangntenemy Vietnam

Just found a typo :P

"Congrats! You password the challenge" --> shouldn't it be "You solved the challenge"? :P

Is 6/5 Working?
Posted by Pha. Pharaoh HagbardCE United States
My method is currently not very fast, so I often get 'too slow' when I try...but sometimes, when I think I've done it really fast, I get no response at all - no red text appears.  I believe that this occurs when I do it within the time limit, as wheneve [Read More]

Just an update
Posted by Pha. Pharaoh Sphinx Singapore

Three challenges are being "cooked" for levels 6, 7 and 8 respetively. As these are harder challenges, they require a little more time to code.

Challenge 7/4 is almost done and should be out tomorrow. The groundwork for Challenge 8/3 has been done but it still [Read More]

There's a similar site to this - www.projecteuler.net - but it is more mathematical.  After you solve a puzzle, there's a thread that only the people who solved that puzzle can view.  People use this to share their methods of solution, and in turn, [Read More]

2/19: Nonograms I
Posted by Pha. Pharaoh deo Brazil

Hey Sphinx,

now that I know the order you check the boxes is important, I think the challenge should include this info there.

I suspect this is also an issue for the 4/9 (The rising knight) challenge, will try it again [Read More]

7/3 Broken
Posted by Pha. Pharaoh HagbardCE United States

Sphinx,
