It took me a bit to get the candy. They tell you that you can see the last letter in it's name reflected in the mirror but that's got to be among the shittiest quality of images I've ever come across on the internet. After a while of looking around with some worthless clues (seriously, sometimes they don't even seem to be related) I just took a wild guess and went with that.

I'd rather not post spoilers, but if anyone thinks I can be of assistance, send me a PM or find me on msn as the case may be. I got to level 13 this morning before I had to go to class.

Any tips in level 10? I don't get it but I think it has to do something with level 8s user/pass.

DNA strand sequence

Look for a list of complementary amino acids. Something like "Glu-arg-lyc" etc etc. You'll need to be careful of which end you start transcribing at (you'll need to transcribe first to RNA, then translate to amino acid.)
It might be a section from a particular (and bloody small) protein. Or you might need to take the resulting a.a.s and do something w/ them (first/last letter = word?). Who knows...

Stuck on 6. Anyone have any hints to help?

Author:  Delos [ Tue Apr 12, 2005 9:22 pm ]
Post subject: 

Hmm...lvl 6...

Ok, how about this. Do you know Homestarrunner (if not, where have your been hiding these last few years?)? Do you know what Strong Bad always talks about in his Emails Intro screen? Think about it...


Edit:
BTW, if you're wondering, this is what I'm talking about.

Never heard of it. Anways I checked out that link and cant make the connection to the few clues i've gatherd in level 6: "ascii is an alternative", "anagram"(dont know if that is a clue) , "ALTernative".

I tried running "ascii is an alternative" in an anagram program however didnt get anything useful.
