[Mistery]

Riddle game.

Rules:
1. It's all about finding the answer for a level. It may be one word, several words, whole sentence or maybe even some gibberish if it is hinted so.
2. When you find out the answer, just type it in the URL as a file name; for example: .../d_s/answerhere.htm
3. There are no spaces in the answers and - usually - no uppercase letters, althought do not reject it if some levels hint otherwise.
4. And the most important rule - have fun !

Requirements:
1. Good graphic editor - Adobe Photoshop or GIMP.
2. An audio manipulator may be needed, such as Audacity.
3. Some additional programs may be useful... but you'll find that out during the riddle ;)

I have Photoshop, but... I don't have any audio manipulator! And even if I would have one...I don't know how to work with it!!! :'(

In most cases you can just use the "Audiorecorder" that is in your Windows accessories. With this, you can make sounds faster or slow them down, or play them backwards.

lighten and zoom in on the pic rather than inverting it. the text your looking for is green if that helps.

I think its somekind of anagram though

Hello everyone! Any luck with the hidden word? I have made out the letters but they don't make any sense to me...

Still stucking, sucking, ......

What about applying the hint (taking opposites) to the capitalized words ?

[philbabb89]

id show you a spoiler for level 3 but i dont know how, anyways anyone got something on 4?

[soulmissing]

I got to a page with strange letters...

[Uncle Drakun]

I have Photoshop, but...
photoshop is good :)


I don't have any audio manipulator! And even if I would have one...I don't know how to work with it!!!
audacity (ask google). free, good audio manipulator.
but there is no level that requires advanced audio manipulation so far, so don't bother yet ;)



for 4:
find a tool, find a way to use it, use the knowledge you have to get the proper coords... and then, find a place ;)


and by the way, there is an official DS forum - it's not too big, but i believe it's a better place to discuss the riddle... the choice is yours:

Drakun, I understand the superscripts and z6/q3, but I'm at lost with 6t/9b...
A hint (or a PM) would be welcome !
EDIT: At least I found the country, but I'm still lost :( Won't anybody heeeeeeeeeelp me, please heeeeeeelp me ( I shouldn't listen to Aimee Mann)

[soulmissing]

What I supposed to do?

[b2pop]

What I supposed to do?

1. Find the tools you need
2. Translate z6 & q3, to understand what the groups of characters correspond to.
3. Translate the gorups of characters into something that you gonna search on google
4. eventually, you should get a specific place.

I'm stuck on 3, because the 4 I get is not specfic enough...

[soulmissing]

Something is double...
Use it...
Two steps forward...
More hints?:Scissor Sai Furr(what does it pronounce like)?
