10,000 Tokenz to the person who can solve this puzzle

[Tim]

It wasn't that bad. I think AUFred nearly got there when he posted zerozeroneonezerozero etc etc whatever it was. That's what you get from the long paragraph Tim posted at first. Then when you turn that into 001100 etc etc, you get '25-22=?' and the answer to that is 3

Tell me that you didn't change the zero's and one's manually...

I freakin did! It would have taken longer to open word just to do find and replace and it only took 2 seconds

Thanks for the tokenz Tim

I think a pity/sympathy donation is in order.

Just how do you convert binary to text in wordpad/notepad/word?

Tuffdisc... Tim posted how in the quote below.

And here is how to solve it in less than 30 seconds...

Take the original code and paste it into a binary to text converter. And you end up with this.

ZeroZeroOneOneZeroZeroOneZeroZeroZeroOneOneZeroOneZeroOneZeroZeroOneZeroOneOneZeroOneZeroZeroOneOneZeroZeroOneZeroZeroZeroOneOneZeroZeroOneZeroZeroZeroOneOneOneOneZeroOneZeroZeroOneOneOneOneOneOne

Now paste that into and wordpad or text file and use the Find and Replace feature to find all the One's and replace with 1's, then do the same thing to the Zero's. Now you end up with this.

00110010001101010010110100110010001100100011110100111111

Convert that to text and you end up with

25-22=?

Solve that and you get 3

All could be done in less than 30 seconds...

Sudoku scares you?

The wordpad is just for changing zerozerone into 001 the rest is done through a binary translator.

Ah, I don't have wordpad on my pc ^^

 

[AUFred]

congrats HK

To be honest, I just typed it out manually from one box to the other because opening up my word program would have taken longer

Thanks Fred!

You sure about that? Notepad and Wordpad come with your OS. Look under accessories in your program menu. :nod:

I highly doubt that you're inept. Intimidated by it, maybe... inept... nooooo.

Practice makes perfect. Give it a go.
