Whatever his solution to the page 9 riddle is, it's not the correct answer, because I tried the correct answer and it didn't get me anywhere. :p
 
I came up with that and variations of it, but the problem is I can't figure out what to do with it from there. Unless I completely did it wrong or something.
 
*Hangs his head in shame*

Ya know you can do something so many times that you make the same mistake every single time.

Thanks for the help! Off to 9 I go...
 
Holy crap. I thought it couldn't possibly be that...

Oh well, about time.

Hah, I didn't even make that connection. Well, skywalker, if you're still here, you should be able to get on to the next page.

I'm on page 11, and I'm baffled, so when someone gets there, I'd like to share ideas.
 
Sure, wanna help me get there? I'm just now onto page 9, and I've tried all the answers I can think of, so I'm probably just missing something obvious.

Page 9 hint: It's a trick question.
Page 10 hint: Read the whole of page 10 again.

I'm with you on this one. Of course I'm too tired to think clearly so I'll try again tomorrow.
 
Agreed, Scruffy, but it wasn't a big deal. Once I realize that's what it was, it wasn't hard to find the right way to make it work.

Page 11... One hint, given by an unknown user on the riddle site, is that someone who mentioned leetspeak was on the right track.

It doesn't make much sense with leetspeak either. One idea of mine is that the span clue means that there are spans in the code that skip the vowels, so all we have to do is insert the right vowels, but I can't make sense of those letters even with vowels. Using dvorak in any direction just makes it worse.
 
Gekko, please don't post them here so that people who haven't gotten there yet can see them. That's what the onefiddle forums are for. On that note, though, I haven't been able to figure that one out yet, though it's not yet my longest attempt.
