Although I'm not wild about the title, this online game is pretty fun. I'm having a lot of fun with this, as I like to look for hidden things in pictures, URLs, and HTML source

Let's see how far we can get! And don't cheat!

This is just a rip off of http://www.thisisnotporn.com... which I still do in my off time.

TinP is also constantly updated and changed, so cheaters get screwed

You know who I pray to? Joe Pesci. He looks like a guy who can get things done. Joe Pesci doesn't **** around. In fact, Joe Pesci came through on a couple of things that god was having trouble with.

Got to level 4, decoded the 'code', put it in as the user and pass... and it didn't work! Oh well, I had a good run.

This is some strange puzzle, I think its great though. I got to level 5 - going to bed now, tired.

@ Exeat
A bit of help (even if its still a bit cryptic) :
Have you lit the room yet?
Found the code?
How would you decode a code with dots and dashes??? (Think of an important inspector - although that might be just for UK viewers)

The code gives 2 words and should be the user and password.

Alright if you really want to know what the user and password is see the source

Yes, I did all that, but when I decrypted it I got "earl" and "url". How odd.

I've looked there but that clue still doesn't help.

I googled both the message and the clue without much luck. There's just too much information. How on earth will I find what I need?

Obviously it's incorrect, hence why it didn't work. And yes, I do know how to use morse code.

Well, I found the answer to #5 on the site's forums.

Thing is, when I type in the message or the hint into Google, I get a million responses, each about a different thing. I looked at the walk-thorugh for the hint but it still didn't help. And I was supposed to look for a
?! Sigh...

help! what is in the picture in #7, it looks like some sort of wrapper (i've already figured out the url clue)

Part of solving the problem is actually noticing that the problem is there in the first place

Ooh, web mystery puzzles.

There's a mystery flash game somewhere called Mystery Of Time And Space, or MOTAS. I've finished it, and it's damn easy compared to TINP.

Dodo, it's a UK based chocolate bar. But you're not interested in what it is called now. Google is your friend from this point.

It's impossible to beat #8 without hints. These puzzles have nothing to do with logic or anything like that, they have to do with your knowledge of computers, and your ability to recognize obscure problems. It's actually pretty stupid and not satisfying at all, but for some reason I can't stop yet. Got to #11

Too weird. Gave up when got to #4.

I could get up to about level 6, but the ThisIsNotPorn website, I'm stuck on the first page :S.

Well, I mean't the page saying "Asia Awaits...". I'm looking at the...

- Asia Awaits...
- CUT AND CUT AND CUT
- CUT AND CUT AND CUT AND CUT
- The text in the background
- HeWhoRulesByTheSword
- The crazy text along the top

Been staring at it for ages, and I dont have a clue.

Isn't it? Wasn't it? Marvellous!

Maybe you should convert the binary to ASCII. Probably won't work.

x_x

you need to view the source, it's an ascii picture..

I believe it's referencing an individual, however, I don't know who that individual is

If you've seen the movie Alexander or have read about him, that riddle makes more sense, yet I don't know the answer, and I haven't taken time to try

Ok, so I've found the riddle. It's not referencing a person, I know EXACTLY what it is referencing, but I don't have a clue how it wants me to enter the answer. I suppose the other clues must tell you that.

Yeah, the original ThisIsNotPron is kind of lame. On the first page you just click the oven. Then it immediately becomes impossible. It's not the thing I would carry on doing.

I'm up to #11 aswell, but it doesn't seem to give any clues?

Edit: I've figured out #11. You have to look at the source code very carefully...
