A game where you must devise a password that meets a list of requirements that grow in number, complexity, and absurdity
I was going strong, but Paul ruined it for me.
For me too. I should play on a pc
How far did you come? I’m currently stuck at
levelrule 16 and decided to throw in the towel for today.Low 20s, I think?
Cool. And that’s just enough motivation for me to give it another shot.
Tell Paul I say “Hi.”
will do
Rule 11 Your password must include today’s Wordle answer.
Yeah… no!

tract
In a pinch, you can just enter the same 5 letter word and get the answer.
Fuck you Paul
Overfed ??? Greedy bastard
🔥
Country: Denmark.
The roman numerals in your password should multiply to 35.
FML
Edit: Next one was Croatia.
Only uppercase letters count for roman numerals, I believe!
So it would have accepted “croatia” instead of “Croatia”? Well good to know that this new password of mine is not case-sensitive then.
You can even put element symbols in there, CrOaTia
You were absolutely right, game changer.
Kinda like You Shall Not Pass, nice.
Not sure which is harder.Edit: The Password Game is a lot harder…

…since it uses iframes to embed a Google Maps API piece that does not render in any of my browsers, even those without script blockers - and effing maps api does not like being called directly, only as iframe. So brute forcing country names would be one way - setting breakpoints in js the other. But since I already played Untrusted 😇 https://alexnisnevich.github.io/untrusted/
But having looked at the code again, when rule 16 kicked in - this goes on an and on 🔥😈 no way I finish this today
I just can’t seem to play chess very well :-(
I downloaded a chess solving app.
Chess also broke my neck, or i dont understand the notation
SPOILERS:

there are additional notation symbols for certain events/effects.

Like x or +
It doesn’t accept π as a number. Literally unplayable.
So many videos outright LYING about how long they are in their titles.
I need to stop playing this.
“Your password is on fire”
Could everybody share how far they came? I directly killed Paul by giving him 30 caterpillars
26, I think? Had to choose 2 letters that I can’t use anymore and then I don’t remember because Paul.
The chicken starved while I was looking for a YouTube video that’s exactly 4:22 long
Spent 2 hours with a group of people trying to do finish it, just to end up failing the last step after getting all the rules correctly. I give up.
Wow, this just made it to arstechnica.
Chess one fucked me over. All the solvers say Rxf5 but it was having none of it Gonna try again later even though I feel like I’m training something 😂
