level 9

I'm killing myself over this one, and I'm a programmer so this should be easy. I'm at a loss over what to convert.

[Mistery]

Well

sometimes you need to convert text to b*****

EDIT
And your current URL (previous answer) might help

I'm off to bed - even aliens need to sleep sometimes - good luck!

Thanks, that was a big 'duh' for me. I was looking at it microscopically instead of macroscopically.

Now I'm stuck on 14. Have the egg (I think, assuming it's an image) but don't know what to do with it even after reading several posts.

Sweet dreams!

Edit: Never mind. Brainisdead's insulting posts helped me figure it out. I would have never got that on my own. I couldn't figure out what 'them' referred to. :cS

Now stuck on 35. Going to bed though, so will try again tomorrow. Loving your riddles; they're the closest thing I've found to The Stone (R.I.P.), which I adored and was heavily addicted to. Keep up the fabulous work!

[Mistery]

Aha, then those insulting posts had at least one positive effect

Thanks for your nice words, I really appreciate it
I haven't heard of The Stone, was that also a riddle?

Look up page title on wikipedia, and search for a connection to the image name there in that article.
Don't miss the source clue how to use them to get the solution.

Have a good rest

Yes, it was probably the original online riddle game. Founded in '99 and shut down two months ago. All the puzzles have been copied to http://www.thestonemonument.com/ though, so they're still playable. It was originally a contest, basically used to teach people things they didn't know about previously. Most of the puzzles are images with clues to the question and the answer, though some are cryptic as hell and take days or months to solve. Along the way you learn some really fascinating material about history, philosophy, science, science fiction--virtually everything. It's not the same as a change-the-url riddle, but the concept is similar and the experience is unmatched (an immense amount of planning went into creating the atmosphere and the Enigma), though solving your riddles is the closest I've gotten to it, much more so than notpron and its ilk of puzzle.

You should really check it out, if you ever have any free time. ;c) I assure you that you won't regret it, even if you want to kill the creators after a while, which all members have at some point.

Thanks for the nudge. I'll try it again now.

[Mistery]

Wow, thank you very much for the information!

[Queue]

Got it! I was thinking of the image name too literally. Hate when that happens!

[Mistery]

Well done!

[Queue]

Now stuck on 39, but not asking for a hint yet. Have to go play drums for church. Be back later!

[Mistery]

Hehe, yeah, this is a tricky one

Have fun - and good luck for later!

[Queue]

OK, so, I see that the

image name anagrams into a****** i* and the caps in the source hint anagram into n******, which may or may not be intentional. I've anagrammed all key words in the body, with no help, and have read all about C**** again and the A**** franchise. Downloaded a couple of image manipulators and attempted to a****** the image, with no luck.

I'm not sure how any of it fits together.

Edit: Never mind. All of those were red herrings. On 40 now.

[Mistery]

Sorry for being late.
Glad you've figured it out, well done

[Queue]

Thank you.

Is there some reason the HTML is duplicated on the source for Level 43?

[Mistery]

OH! Didn't realize
No, there is no reason for that, sorry

EDIT
Should be fixed now.
