I’ve seen these before, but this page is making me lose more time than I can afford to. Although I just about hit my boredom limit last night – I’ll let others lose time figuring out what the trick is.

    I’ve been cheeky and put a solution page up as far as half way (15 out of the 30 pages) …

    You can get to it from http://blog.signal2noise.co.uk/cgi-bin/blosxom.pl/nfshost.html

    Hey, I finished it! (for now) 22 nearly had me stumped.
    Neat puzzle. Thanks for the link.

    Ugh, I can’t get past “13, unlucky…” — is there some well-known saying? I’m Jewish, 13 is a fine number by us… 🙂

    So this is the post that lead to a number of Linux geeks turning up at my LiveJournal asking for hints? 😉

    It’s nice.

    Gareth’s cheat sheet seems to be quite nicely done as well.
