Me neither. This is what I got from the # thingy, using Archangel's hint:

18 R (the letter, not the word. thanks agsforums)
11 K

18 R
7   G
21 U

13 M
2   B
4   D

Whaaaa???

Ok, I got past that one with a little help. The next level... I was confused for a while until I noticed a mistake on the page, dunno if it was intended. Then I figured out what the password for the next level was (that was ingenious btw)... Now I'm at a grid sort of thing. I know what it does, and I got some numbers and a word out of it, but I don't know what to do with them.

Trap: the red letters form a word. That word is a clue, which will tell you something else you have to do with the grid.

One more hint, the thing you're meant to eventually get isn't a proper word, just a collecion of letters.

I must be stupid... I still can't get past that one page.

I have one of two things:

depending on whether you count spaces.  I can't figure out what to do with them.  I tried adding them onto the web address in as many ways as I could, but can't come up with anything.

The first one's almost right. You came up a little short on everything, including the " "s.

I'm really stuck

Spoiler
I went to /thecase/thecase/ and found the text at the bottom of the page.  I know the letters are "errf oueua" and don't know what else to do! I tried looking at the source code many times, but I found nothing!

I am still on the bit where

you download the small AGS game & need a password. I cannot think of a way to prove I am a member of the community, and I don't notice any 'mistakes' in the page like Trapezoid

I've tried loads of possibilities!

VWG: look in the directory where you unzipped the game. What do you notice about the files there?

Trapezoid

Also, the mistake on the page was fixed.

LilGryph

If you were a true AGS member, you would know exactly what you can do with those extra files o_0 muahahah

The first thing I did when I downloaded the files was to open them in the AGS editor (after having to download the newest version to do so), but I can't seem to find anything passwordy in there...

I can't get into the game using AGS. When I try to load it, it says "read_gui: unknwon version, update this program", but I have the newest version of AGS! Is this normal & if so, can someone explain EXACTLY what I have to do.

If not, can someone just give me the password because I reeeeeeeeally want to move on!


veryweirdguy

Thank GOD! I finally got the password and onto the next page. Expect me asking for help with it in a couple of days.

That was actually a pretty good puzzle!

veryweirdguy

OK, here's what I got on the next page so far:

Spoiler
The red letters spell PRIME, so I got all of the prime numbers in the grid ie:

1,2,3,5,7,11,13,17,19,23,29,31,37,41,43,47,53,59,61.

Using the letters on the grid I spelled this:

PRAIAWRNIRUWGLGIWOA

This doesn't work but am I on the right track?

VWG: yes that's the right idea. I can't remember the correct combination tho so you'll have to keep trying ^_^

You'll also want to have a look at this:

Spoiler
1 is not a prime number

You mean I have to try those letters in a different order?!? Finding the right combonation could take ages! Is that what you mean?
