I refuse to do this unless some chick gives me a bj under the table and John Travolta holds a gun to my head.

#12I love puzzles like this and gave it a try.
Learned something. A ticking counter is really, really unsettling. :)
Good luck with the site, I'm pretty sure that I cannot do even the simplest of things (having written not a single line of Python doesn't help, but the challenges are clear enough. I cannot blame the toolset here, it's myself/my mind going nuts).

#13Asking me to register before I test your website? Really? Yay! I just love doing that!
And by registering, you mean username + password + confirm password + email + captcha ... I hope I'm going to get a confirmation email, I don't get nearly enough of those.
And hopefully you're going to send me a monthly newsletter. And commercial offers from your 'partners'! If so, please make sure you send it as HTML. Plain text is boring and ugly, and quite frankly would work too easily on my mutt client. Who would want that?

#15Note: if you pass the qualifier you need to provide a Skype id to register for the challenge itself.

#16Be warned, if you want to sign up for the real challenge, you need a Skype account and a computer with a working mic. I don't have one at work, so guess I don't get to try.

#17They really should advertise more upfront that this is Python. They should maybe even call it the Quixey Python Challenge.
couldn't make myself pass the bloodsucking reg form (it has more than 2 fields :), so didn't even see that it is python.

How long does it take to type in a gibberish mailinator address and a password?

#20Solved the Quicksort challenge. It's a bit tougher when you don't know python! Make sure you add quixeychallenge on Skype and then add yourself to the queue.
Save the Quicksort challenge for last. It's the easiest one (in my opinion).
That way you can see all the other challenges.
