Riddle

This is where you can discuss your homework, family, just about anything, make strange sounds and otherwise discuss things which are really not related to the Lancer-series. Yes that means you can discuss other games.

Riddle

I found a link to this site.


Try it and let us know how good you are at it

What's the answer to the first part? Man, I feel stupid.

Other than there really isn't a riddle to begin with, No such luck with this one, then again I hated Myst games that offered no clues.

Killa don't worry, someone else had to help me with that one as well, apparently, "reading between the lines" means looking at the source code.
From there it is quite easy to find the password.
I'm stuck on the second one, apparently everyone stuggles with it.

Enter the obligitory Not Pron link.

Few notes, it IS safe for work though the clue in some of the levels is in the music so a headset of some sort maybe a good idea.
Despite its appearance, its NOT one of those sites where something jumps out at you (and you jump out of your skin to the amusement of whoever is sat around you).

DO NOT ATTEMPT THIS IF YOU CURRENTLY HAVE A SOCIAL LIFE!

I don't even know how to get the source code.

At first I figured there was no password seeing as I couldn't find anything in between the lines. I've never been good at riddles.

Yeah the source code was one of my first guesses, because I had seen something similar when some people were trying to identify a "mystery person" in a book by looking at a page he designed. But unfortunately I don't know how to find the source code so I was stuck with trying to find the password somewher ehidden in the text. Incidentally, I interpereted the riddle as to read a book called "between the lines" and there was a book by that name.

<br>

Here is my new site: a game I hope you and I will enjoy, a source of information which can
become useful for reversers, and a way to meet new people and work with them. Because, of
course, you can work with others to solve the riddles: the solutions will work for your
different logins and give you all access to the next level. Also, I don't mind _how_ you
solve the riddles: if you are able to find the password in any more creative way (stalking,
searching, cracking, and so on) you're allowed to do it. Just two requests: first, don't
damage the server where my pages are hosted; second, teach us the technique you have
used or the tools you've created to find the password.
<br>
<br>
I think that's all, for now. Read between the lines and find the password that, together
<!-- HINT: the cyphertext is written in English. -->
with the login name you choose, will allow you to start the game.

It's much easier to read within firefox...because it's color coded and italicised

I can't read that file when I download and unzip it. It's in some weird format.
