4/10 Broken?
Posted by Pha. Pharaoh HagbardCE United States
I believe I have the correct answer...but it is not accepting it.  Additionally, noone else has passed it either.  I believe it may be broken in some form.  Can you check on this, Sphinx?

Posted by Pha. Pharaoh deo Brazil

Hey,

in the second part I'm pretty sure I get the name right, but when I submit the form, I get exactly the same page again, but if I try it via URL parameter it then tell me the answer is wrong... :-(
