I appreciate your efforts - it's certainly blowing the cobwebs out, and 23 has definitely put me in a literary frame of mind

The whole text for this level, you mean...?

There's one very specific piece of information that refers to a place - it's not a name..

the phone number, then? I've been trying to work it out, but all I get is that (69) is the code for hungary and (693) is a cell-phone code

You're on the right lines, but have the wrong information:

google for 'phone codes', hit the first link, and find 69 - it should sound more south american

i find

the painting is being hidden at 4890 coronel texeira street

The only thing i've been able to find about Coronel Teixeira Street in Manaus is Tropical Manaus Hotel at 1320. Anyone know whatelse is on that same street?

The URL is exactly that given by the deciphered text, from the numbers to the end + .htm. Make sure you use numbers and not the words themselves.

Google helped a lot for the Barging In level

Look up Brazil area codes

Okay, I found the place in south america... but I tried typing that in and it didn't work... I'll keep trying... thanks!

Got It!

I must have spelled it wrong the first time, dangit. I hate being so stupid after so recently being so smart. Thanks Kuang!

You are probably getting the same place I was getting over and over again in my search. Just eliminate that name from your search and you'll get it.

On level Gilded hemipterons ... any clues on the substition yet?

From what I can see so far the number 1 corresponds to the letter t or s.

On level Gilded hemipterons ... any clues on the substition yet?

I thought it might have something to do with the title... both hemipteron and terpsichore have 11 letters... but I haven't made any headway with that yet...

Remember it is a simple substitution cipher

Google the words individually and find out what they mean, then work from there

Well, I googled them individually, and I know what they mean... haven't figured out how to put 'em together yet...

You need to put yourself in a literary frame of mind for this one..
