I got to rule 35, I think I was one away from victory, best time to play this is probably around 10:00-2:00 so that you can keep low numbers and it doesn't mess up rule 5. I gave up and decided to slay Paul myself. Paul is the bane of my existence.

#172Neal has outdone himself yet again. I had it until the roman numerals and adding upto 25 ones but lost my cool when it said it must include today's wordle answer. Screaming and crying.
I gave up when I needed to represent the best chess move in algebraic notation, but I couldn't because the text from the captcha I had to solve earlier contained an illegal move... rage

#173I loved the Google maps street view bit. I couldn’t exit street view and the road signs were in Cyrillic. Had to walk a long way before I could search for some landmarks and guess Belarus.
I walked around a lot but couldn't figure out the country. I refreshed and the next one was on some cliff that I couldn't move so I pasted a list of all countries and then started deleting in a binary search fashion until I was left with the correct one.

#174I'm stuck at "iatetomatoesyesterday0265Z#521juneVpepsiVIIxngxcaboutAg[moon emojis]italy2020Bf7+" trying to solve the chess notation puzzle. I especially laughed at the rule "must include today's Worldle" and I'm happy with my solution including every emoji for "must include the current phase of the moon as an emoji." (HackerNews doesn't seem to display emoji. My solution is to paste every moon phase emoji.) Excited t…
Italy? Interesting that it is giving different locations. I got Qatar.

Re: The Password Game
#176Your password must be at least 5 characters. Your password must include a number. Your password must include an uppercase letter. Your password must include a special character. The digits in your password must add up to 25. Your password must include a month of the year. Your password must include a roman numeral. Your password must include one of our sponsors: The roman numerals in your password should multiply to…
I would find it hilarious if someone would come up with a password generator that generates passwords that would pass this game.
Should be pretty easy, since you can check the generated password against all the criteria. Making it fast might be difficult though

#177This was fun!
It reminds me of "Password Purgatory" that Troy Hunt (of "Have I Been Pwned" fame) built. It sends real scammers to a real-looking site that basically makes them play this game until they give up and go away.

Re: The Password Game
#178I got a (seemingly?) impossible problem: - roman numerals must multiply to 35 - my chess move is: Rf7+ - Atomic numbers of elements must add up to 200 So I need V, VII and Rf7+ in there but then the atomic numbers are way past 200 already.
Just use XXXV? No need to do 5 * 7
it parses the V in XXXV as an element group

I don’t think this is the source. My answer was Liberia. I was able to spot a .LR domain on a street sign ad.
Then I accidentally lost all progress by clicking the chess notation link and when I got back to the geo guessing it was a small forested area with nowhere to walk to so I gave up :(
Re: The Password Game
#180Fun!
But I wasn’t able to finish: I got a captcha with digits 5, 3, 7, and 8. When the chessboard appeared, the best move was Qe6. These conflicted with the rule to have all digits sum to 25 (5+3+7+8+6=29).
