Nice work overall. That was fun.

Just a heads-up though: There are some typos and grammar mistakes in your explanations, so if you plan to share professionally, you might want to have someone proofread it. Also, your Facebook OAuth window that pops up upon page load is being caught by Chrome's built-in popup blocker. Either way though, I'm always disappointed when Facebook OAuth is the only login method. I get that it's easy to implement, but I can't imagine this is a very security-sensitive app in terms of user-accounts. I would like to save my progress, but it's not worth the risk or analysis required to hook up my Facebook.

It would be nice to be switched to the next level automatically.

I was also expecting it to advance me automatically to the next level.

A bit of customisation of the default bootstrap look would have been nice too.

"Notice! In order to save your progress you have to login with Facebook." Yeah, maybe... let me check: NOPE.

I really wish Facebook's Anonymous Login would make it out of beta so this wouldn't be an issue: https://developers.facebook.com/products/anonymous-login/

Don't you still need a facebook login for that?

My main problem with this is telling the difference between O and 0, the clue O's look more like 0 so I have to copy paste them. (Although I don't think I've had any numbers required for solutions yet).

A site knowing my facebook account is a small issue, facebook knowing a visited that site is the big one.
