Nope :frown:


Think about way you can manipulate the letters in the alphabet - a change in the order of the English alphabet may be in order.

Look at the parameters. What do u spot in the briefing that could help u?

I understand which parameters I need for challenge 7 on part 5, but can't find what the second one is! Any pointers?
Anyone having problems with moon lvl 3, challenge 2? I used the code they gave me as i kept getting it wrong and yet i got the following error:
"socket.error: [Errno 111] Connection refused"

Yeh with the moon base, having not coded in python 2 before I just find myself having to be persistent and try different stuff

The one where you have to edit the javascript to login is annoying AF


I think so too, but I dislike all of them that use terminals because I don't know what I'm doing with them
Anyway how are you all doing? I've just hit 55% with 38,700 points. I'm on moon lvl 5, 2 but am starting to struggle more with concepts that I have to look up rather than concepts we were taught. As for HQ, I've done 1,2,3,4,6; I'm missing HQ5 -7, HQ7- 3,7 and i've done around half of HQ8, which I am finding much harder than I found 7!

Hey bro I just hit 80% with 70,500 points. I've got 24 badges. I clear levels 1-6 in the HQ but on lvl 7 challenge 3 I can't work out. I've also done 8-10 and half way through 11. For the moon base I've clear 1-4 and half of 5-7. Unfortunately I've had to use a few hints here and there so I hope that doesn't ruin my chances.
Ugh im useless at this, i cant get through the simplest things

HQ L5 C9? Not sure what browser extension they mean


Same here, struggling.
cookie? Which lvl
Original post by JBenMorris
Wait, 5 7? The one with the literal cookie on the top right


Yeh it's that one man; i'll tell u how to do 5,9 if you help with 5,7?
I mean, you just click the cookie and add a cookie with the information given to you. It literally tells you to do that in the brief.

That's cool bro. I've used about 4 hints in total, so hopefully it shouldn't affect our chance too much. I'm reluctant to use more hints however, because on the cyberstart twitter it mentioned that everyone in game would get access to essentials (which overlaps with game), so we will obviously get taught more in essentials which I can take back to the game challenges I struggle with, rather than using a hint:smile:

The first step is to use the command 'ls -a'.
Basic coding from there!
