Twin Fantastic (published in Felix, Issue 1458, 19/03/2010)


Of the two support bands, Canterbury were by far and away the best of the bunch. They provided a gig that was miles better than the “High School Battle of the Bands” performance given by their opener, Brigade. The poppy, synth laden sound of “Peace & Quiet” along with the beautifully harmonious vocals of the two singers made sure I couldn’t stop tapping my feet. As Canterbury energetically jumped around the stage for their last song, I thought that Twin Atlantic would have a hard time bettering their support’s performance.

Before the headliners even made it onto the stage, an intense feedback rose, resembling a war-cry from William Wallace’s army. This noise grew and grew, creating an almost unbearably tense atmosphere. Suddenly the feedback was killed, and the opening riff of Twin Atlantic’s “You’re Turning Into John Wayne” drew whooping and cheers of satisfaction from a very excited crowd. Three songs in and “Human After All” ensured that the crowd filling the room jumped up and down like a colony of ants on a bass sub. The audience’s reaction to Twin Atlantic was imense and resulted in the only case I’ve seen of both crowd and band pleading for an encore. The majority of the last song was performed after the venue was permitted to play live music and this just added to the punk feel of the gig, sending members of the crowd wild as they careened into one and other. After the last of the feedback had died off and I began to hear more than a faint ringing in my ears, I had no doubts that Twin Atlantic deserved this headline appearance and I think they may have had fun performing too.

http://www.deathball.net/notpron/finale/pron.htm "aliens are coming" Source code says "what am i?" After the image file. 1. What are you looking at? 2. It's clear there is no link, so you don't need to look for a user name and password. 3. You ned to change the URL. 4. Keep guessing what you are looking at. 1. I tried "/ufo.htm" and got wrong way. 2. Then I tried "/egg.htm" and got another wrong way. 3. One of the "Wrong Way" clues says you have seen this before. 4. I guessed "/lamp.htm" which was RIGHT! :)

Level 16

http://www.deathball.net/notpron/zoo/mznvh.htm This is the image you are presented with. It's clear upon first inspection that each of the squares corresponds to each of the previous 15 levels. 1. The source code says "invert a-z" 2.Could this have something to do with the URL? 3. What do the numbers in the pictures mean? 4. What does # mean? 5. Apply what you've been told to the levels referred to. 1. Inverting the letters in the URL gives. "all/names.htm" 2. You know it has to do with the usernames of the levels concerned. 3. The # indicates that the name is inverted (the clue is in the source code) 4. The numbers in the boxes must refer to the letter number of the user name for that level. 5. When there is a # after the number that means, invert the letter. 6. Combining all the letters from the usernames you get the following DOOM MURDER And there's the Username and Password :)

This is notpr0n...

OK! I've had a new idea for this blog. I'm supposed to be revising! HAH! So obviously I've started playing notpr0n again! It's a massive online click and play webriddle! And it's nigh on impossible (for me anyway) without help. So I've decided to go through each level I've down and write hints and teasers for each level, then in a black font I'll write the solution to each level. This was, those who don't want to see the answer don't have to. And those that do want to see the answer simple have to -A to select all writing on the page and view the solution. 1 last thing, I can't be bothered doing all the levels, so I'll start from where I left off before I started revising (in my opinion this is wher eit starts getting hard. LEVEL 16 FOLLOWS!
