That goddamn blank screen has inflicted a hell of a lot of misery it seems. Here's what worked for me - delete files, delete cookies, clear history. Refresh. Gotcha. Possibly only one of those would have worked, but I couldn't figure out which one and I wasn't taking prisoners.

Haven't played it for a couple of days. It's actually quite entertaning just watching the human drama on the forums. ;) Level 9 or something. I decided to stop as it was eating up so much time. But as with all things you know you shouldn't be doing...

...Well lets just say that given a choice between doing something useful and staring at a computer screen for hours, useful may win the battle but the war is far from over...

Like I said, the human drama is so much more entertaining that actually doing the riddle...  :lol:

There should be some sort of big brother where people have to do riddles. It would be great watching watching them getting frustrated. And I'm sure a lot of people would get quite competitive trying to work out the riddle before the people on tv...

...But not just 2d riddles on screen. Room riddles. Like crystal maze but with puzzles you can solve just by looking at the room and the objects within...

Oi! Channel 4, pay me lots of money to design another reality show spin off...
