Apparently there are about 60 of these things.

I’m currently on number 11.

They really make you learn to be observant, think in different ways, and work out your brain muscles. They’re also pretty damn addicting. I find myself saying I’m giving up on one this minute…yet back at it again five minutes later.  
And after 2 hours, all I have to show for is level 11. They’re not so much hard as they are sneaky.  
So I was thinking, Dopers are the smartest bunch on the net I know of. With how many people there are here, surely there’s got to be a few 10 or 20 who can get through them all.  
It starts here at [www.weffriddles.com](http://www.weffriddles.com)

Be prepared to stay up most the night, ignore the work at your job, and forget to eat.

For the record, it’s sometimes easier to “cheat” with games like this by looking at the source code as the first thing to do on each page. Doesn’t always work, but sometimes does.

Dammit, I KNOW I have the right idea for #3, but it’s not working.

I typed in the alphabet before the .html, both in lower and uppercase, but get nothing.

Interesting. I completed the first four levels pretty easily, but have no idea what to do for level five. I’ll definitely check in later.

Most of the earlier levels took me awhile but upon realizing the answer almost wanted to kick myself.

Just made level 13. I think I’m going to stop here for the night. I better or I’ll be up all night at this.

Gah I can’t even get to level 2! Haha this might be above my head for now.

Re: level 5. Read the title bar at the very top of the page for a vagueish hint.

No problem. Really, it was half for semi selfish reasons too. : p Cause I know I’ll probably get stuck on a level soon (like level 14, which I can’t figure out for the life of me) and need some guidence.

By the way, the hardest one for me, so far, was level 9. I just know any passed level 20 will be a doozy.

I so don’t have the patience for this.

Major hint for four.

It’s the letter you use when you’re referring to yourself

Ok, I figured out level 4, now I’m stuck on 5. At least I think it’s 5. There’s an 8 on the page.

Hahaha, pretty good simulipost, I must say.

**kayT** , when you click on the link in the OP, click the start here link. You’ll then need to put in each answer into your address bar, right before the “.html”

Thanks, guys. It turns out I made a random guess (i guessed the 5th letter of the alphabet) and it got me to level 8. Heh.
