Notpron Spoiler Level 21

This level is totally time consuming. The title of the URL has nothing to do with this level. If you view the source code then you’ll have an idea what to do. Being familiar with beating the previous levels will give you an idea on your next move like changing the URL and extension file… but before we proceed, let’s try to check the source code:

once you open the source code you’ll see this -


Changing the URL will absolutely help you with the help of the image above…

let’s try to check the image:

1st step would be changing the URL to http://www.deathball.net/notpron/twentyone/blue.jpg then it’ll give you this image:


2nd step would be changing the URL again to http://www.deathball.net/notpron/twentyone/green.jpg then again it’ll give you this image:


Changing the corresponding filename and extension will give you the rest of the puzzle pieces… and then putting them altogether will reveal the username and the password.

I was totally getting headaches beating this level because of the neon colors though after experimenting and excluding 2 colors I finally had the answer and I’ll show you how I did it…


...and from the image I made above will show you that the username would be getting and the password would be further… Well, on to the next level… ^_^

Notpron Spoiler Level 20

After the holidays this is what I’m doing… Haha that’s just it (I’m officially announcing that I don’t have a life!!!) Well anyway this level is a little bit harder if you’re thinking beyond everything decoding and calculating the numbers you see from the image… Bummer! This had me too but regardless of the complicated way of thinking, it’s really that simple… and let me just remind that viewing the source code won’t help you… Let me show you how!

We have the title of the URL as the first hint - numbers, text, fonts and stuff…


Don’t mind the numbers and stuff and you’ll get it. Moreover if you’re really a text font style aficionado you’ll get this really quickly. As you can see from the image above disregarding the numbers and using the WINDINGS font syle will get you the answers…


So you’ll get "really unfair"… Username would be really and password would be unfair. Come to think of it this stage is quite unfair. It’s way easy but we never guessed it right from the very start that it’s all about the Windings font style. (at least for the most of us) -_-

My Thailand Adventure...

As usual, I haven't been able to update my blog. ~_~

After months of my Thailand experience, I finally had the time to share everything that happened to me when I was there.

Day 1:
It was only that morning when I had come to pack my things and went for the store to buy stuff needed by a traveler like me.
Well, it was my first time traveling only with my friends and without my parents so I was kind of paranoid-nervous and happy-excited at the same time. 9 in the evening was our boarding time so I sent a message early that morning to one of my colleagues who will be with me to watch the concert in Bangkok. We decided to ride the bus for the airport 5 in the afternoon since it was a 2 hour ride and we were unsure if there will be a traffic so we gave ourselves a grace period of 1 hour if anything happens along the way. I only brought 1 luggage for this trip and never thought that this will be a problem. I'm going to tell you why as we proceed with my story-telling...

Well, we got to the airport just in time, we just waited 2 hours or so before we board the plane so we strolled around to find food since we didn't have the chance to eat dinner. Little did we know that we should have had our things checked out along the immigration area and so we were the last ones to board the plane and that was so embarassing. Anyway, you can't blame starving people like us. We just ate bread and drank coffee since kopiroti is the only stall open 8 in the evening that day. I had come to sit beside a weird American. I was in the middle and my friend was in the window side. My other friend sits far away from us because she booked her flight way earlier than us.

Day 2:
We reached the superb Bangkok International Airport 2 in the morning. We need not worry at all since the hotel we come to negotiate our stay with do fetch their customers so we walked onto the exit and search for someone holding an IBIS Hotel plackard. I was really astonished of the fact that Thailand's airport is way much modern and hi-tech than ours. It was huge and the lights were all over the place. You can really see, even from afar that it is an airport. Anyhow, we took pictures along the way before we get our luggage. After that we went on to the immigration to get our passports stamped and then went for the exit to look for the guy with the IBIS plackard. It was kind of hard and it took us about 30 minutes or so to scan all the people outside since the airport was that huge and there were lots of hotel people awaiting their customers as well.

Darn Anti-Government Protesters…

It has long been planned out; you know… having this vacation in Thailand. I even posted it here to my excitement and what happened??? Our flight was cancelled and why??? Anti-government protesters from Thailand shut-down their airport so that their Prime Minister who went for Peru to attend the APEC meeting would not be able to come back and be forced to step down his position which he did after a week. Huh? *deep sigh… Talk about misfortune. Anyhow, my college friend called me up and told me that the concert was rescheduled on February 7th anyway so we better have our flights rescheduled too which we did after talking almost every morning to CebuAir Customer Service during the Thailand mishap.


On the other hand, it would still be a great thing, if ever we were a week earlier in Thailand since I could have had a valid reason to extend my vacation and witness something cool too. LOL! My officemates were very encouraging. They told me I still have next year so I need not worry about it, such optimism. The only good thing I could think of regarding the situation is how I wish Filipinos can be like the Thailanders sometimes. How I wish that piles of people would gather up so that we can throw off the current megalomaniac president. I don’t want to talk politics right now but I just can’t help it.

Anyway, let’s end this crap. I just wish and I'm hopeful that we can make it by next year. I’m keeping my fingers crossed.

When Computer Monitors Go Down...

I have been thinking and observing this weird PC breakdown for a while now. First time I encountered this problem was in the office. A colleague reported a PC breakdown and sending this message to us all. After reading his e-mail, I just can't believe that this is a sudden machine breakdown since my experiences with troubleshooting PCs tells me it is NOT. Well, anyway I turned the reported PC on and yup, I got nothing on the screen. Monitor light is amber but I'm hearing beeps from its CPU so no problem on its main brain. I started dismantling the wires at the back and I happen to take the ethernet cable out of its PC port. After that I turned the PC on and to my surprise, I finally got some output.


I was really puzzled... but if this happens to you, you just needed to take out your ethernet cable and turn your PC on. I think there's some conflict with the NIC and the video card and this TS really works. No clear reason as to why this troubleshooting step works but as long as it fixes your computer, to hell with the reason.

I managed to use this troubleshooting step again yesterday when a neighbor experienced the same problem and my discovered troubleshooting step above works geniusly. I got the PC monitor back up and normal...

Updates... updates... updates... and updates...

As usual... I can't spell out my mood again right now. I don't know if I am being confused of my feelings for someone but I'm sure it's not what you think or maybe I'm just denying the fact that I can feel and I know it's a total bummer. I hate the fact knowing that I can feel something romantic because I am used to being alone and I have already accepted that I will never ever have a boyfriend in my entire fucking life.

Anyway, someone phoned me the other day and it's from Korea. An APEC representative is inviting me to attend a meeting which will be held at Philippine World Trade on November 18, 2008. She sounds cute. Well her accent is kinda funny but it's cute... Funny in a cute way like me sometimes... LOL Well I am pretty much sure I will attend the meeting and the thing is my mom wants to attend as well, not sure if it's possible though...

On the other hand, I decided not to come to work today and I have already asked permission to one of my supervisors which is sooo.. sooo.. lenient and you know what happened next. It's my dad's day today so I needed to come home. The mere fact that my housemates tolerated me to pursue my plan is very convincing. I just laughed it all out and sent a message to my superior which happens to be a good idea rather than just not showing at all. After my shift, my other girl-housemate and I went home and slept a little and then after that by ten she left for home. I continued my nap which is literally a nap since the boys woked me up. We were watching some movie and there, they adviced me that since it was my dad's birthday today I should go home and relax and be non-productive which I happen to get a little anxious at first. I was about to prepare and pack my things but they kept me in the house until the food is done so that we can eat together. That's so sweet, my tear almost fell-off my cheeks.

Moreover, I got home by 5 in the afternoon and still a little anxious about my decision. I just hope this will not cause any problem in the office...

I'm Sick and My Mother Wants Me to Resign...

I got sick last Wednesday probably because of the weather. It has been changing drastically last week. You don't really know when it's gonna be sunny or when it's gonna rain. I had decided to rest for the wholeday so I had not come to work on Thursday. It was not that troublesome though since my housemates were there to take care of me. However, my mother went all the way to our apartment to check on me and there it all started about the thing of me leaving my job prematurely. A total bummer... I don't know what to do or how to explain. I told her it was inevitable. I'm not a superhero or something and everyone gets sick so I told her not to make a big deal out of it. On the other hand, I know her and I know that she's gonna do something and she even got one of my supervisor's e-mail address. I asked her, what's she gonna tell my supervisor? This is not school anymore that parents can barge in business anytime. It was too complicated but somehow I managed to talk my way through out of her web.

Anyway, I'm quite well right now but still can't go to work tomorrow. I need to have a check-up first. I don't know how to go on with everything anymore... I'm just tired... and the thing is, I'm not purely happy...
