I lost at rule 35 (out of 36) because I overfed Paul. Some tips I gathered: 9. Use XXXV, as the chemical symbols contained in (V,VII) add up 152, which is already very close to 200 for rule 18; 10. Refresh the captcha so that it only includes lowercase letters, you'll need numbers later and they can't add up to more than 25 according to rule 5; 14. Pray for having a country with a short name, whose first letter isn't also a chemical element and that includes common letters (curse you Zimbabwe); 15. I think 4 is a leap year... 17. Put Paul at the start or the end of your password; 19. You can bold the whole string to meet the condition, but beware of rule 26. Also, before meeting the condition, copy-paste your password elsewhere; 20. Just select the fire and some more characters and delete them, then fill the gap from your copy-pasted password; 22. Use "i am loved" (all lowercase, cf. rule 18) as you'll need to sacrifice two letters for rule 25, but you will already use 'o' for youtu.be, 'v' for XXXV, 'e' for youtu.be, and probably 'l' and 'd' in your captcha, URL (cf. rule 24) or color (cf. rule 28). Also, it's the shorter word of the three, and for rules 32 and 33 it's simpler to add padding symbols than to remove mandatory characters to control the length of the password; 23. Try to have between 2 and 6 max worms at any time, it should give you enough time to think without overfeeding Paul. 9 worms will definitely kill Paul (maybe less, but 6 should be safe); 24. On Chrome, you can use the "YouTube Time Filter" extension to find videos of the correct timelength. On YouTube, type a very generic request (like "game", "car", or even just "p"), open the filters and choose "Video" (to filter out shorts) as well as a length range (to reduce client-side filtering) then in the YouTube Time Filter insert a length range one second before and one second after the required range (the game has a one second leniency). Then scroll and scroll. Of course, once you find a suitable video, strip any superfluous parameter from its length, and make sure that the video id doesn't include any uppercase 'M', 'D', 'C', 'X' (because those roman numerals don't multiply to 35, cf. rule 9) and preferably no 'V' or 'I' (because of rules 9 and 18). It's hard, but with a bit of patience, it doable. Also use the short URL (youtu.be, not youtube.com) and trim the "https://www https://www.", you don't need them; 25. If you applied those tips correctly and you were lucky on the captcha and the country, you should be able to strip the letters 'w' and 'z' at the very least. Other letters if you were very lucky (maybe try to choose another month for rule 6 if it can make you unuse a letter, or maybe you should have used "i am enough" ?); 26. Just put the whole string in italics; 28. Refresh until you have a color without numbers (or 0 at most), for rule 5; 32. It's better to have 123 characters than 97 (cf. rule 5); 33. Sorry, I meant 113. Other probable candidates, depending on your current password length are: 101, 103, 113, 131, 151, 211, 223, 233, 311 and 313. Other numbers are fine too, but it's up to you to see if you can have them depending on your URL and chess move. Maybe include 8 padding symbols at the end of the password, in prevision to rule 35. Know that the length will vary when you feed Paul, but the length should usually be correct; 34. Just skip this one, really; 35. Unfortunately, I didn't pass that one as I overfed Paul, but I think it would be easier to play around midnight, ideally at 00:00:00, because you know, rule 5. But make sure to write it at 23:59 and change the police size to 0px before midnight, so every rule can be met at midnight. Not sure if the seconds are needed or not, since I didn't pass it.

  To add a couple of things to this: 9. I use XXXV (23), He (2), Fm (100), these make it easier to adjust the symbols later on. 15. 0 is a leap year 20. Ctrl+Backspace will delete the whole fire if you place your cursor at the end of it 24. If you type your exact time into youtube (e.g. 32:15) you will find many videos with that length, bad thing about this solution however is that if you're given a time that can also be a date (e.g 21:01) you'll just get a bunch of news broadcasts from that day. Also I think the limit for Paul is 5 caterpillars, I keep it at 4 just to be safe though.
- bowmessage 3y ago
  Seconds aren't needed. Also, copy your password before confirming it! You'll need it on the clipboard for the next step...
kretaceous 3y ago
Neal has outdone himself yet again. I had it until the roman numerals and adding upto 25 ones but lost my cool when it said it must include today's wordle answer. Screaming and crying.
- dalai 3y ago
  I gave up on rule 18: The elements in your password must have atomic numbers that add up to 200.
- sltkr 3y ago
  I wonder if the password becomes invalid if you leave the tab open for 24 hours...
  - squeaky-clean 3y ago
    Won't say too many spoilers but after a certain rule part of your password can starve to death if you don't feed it enough. Ask me how I know :(
    - mcint 3y ago
      Mmm, I overfed a certain part of the password.
- lnx01 3y ago
  I gave up when I needed to represent the best chess move in algebraic notation, but I couldn't because the text from the captcha I had to solve earlier contained an illegal move... rage
  - KomoD 3y ago
    You can regen the captcha, I stopped at that too because I couldn't be bothered.
  - ufo 3y ago
    It works if you put the chess move before the captcha

> Rule 5: The digits in your password must add up to 25. Im already stuck here with `Password!25XXV` or `Password!1234567890123456789012345` or `Password!34` (9+25) I'm not native english, so if there is a pun in the rules description, I might not get it :'(
- thorin 3y ago
  It means individual digits e.g. 997 === 9 + 9 + 7
- echeese 3y ago
  It means sum, so 55555 would work
  - cm-t 3y ago
    got it, thank you!
- arijun 3y ago
  It’s the sum of the individual digits, so 25 sums to 7, and your second one sums to way more than 25
  - cm-t 3y ago
    funny that i had to remove weight of my initial digit since the CAPTCHA (rule10) :>
    - arijun 3y ago
      The captcha could itself add up to more than 25, making an immediate game over
      - hgsgm 3y ago
        Same. I had a captcha and chess move that added to 29. Copy your password and reload to continue with only a few missed rules.
lycos 3y ago
I gave up after having to include a leap year (Rule 15), I don't know if this is a spoiler but I ended up with January99Pepsi?XXXVggd7maboutZrJapan (there was an emoji in there for the current moon phase but HN stripped it out) Looking at the code it should be possible to get a lot further, in theory. Wonder how Paul is doing!
- sltkr 3y ago
  The country is randomized; mine was Albania (that was NOT easy to figure out!)
  - lycos 3y ago
    I saw a hot spring and got a very lucky guess, I can imagine there are a lot of hard ones in there yeah!
  - hgsgm 3y ago
    Google a street name.

      If it lands on a street it lets you roam around, but others only let you look and zoom around, they are harder if not impossible for mere mortals.

    My country was El Salvador. I would not have guessed it (I kept trying equatorial countries). I had to reverse engineer the URL encoding of the embedded map. Spoiler: There is !1d and !2d, followed by coordinates.

I'm stuck at "iatetomatoesyesterday0265Z#521juneVpepsiVIIxngxcaboutAg[moon emojis]italy2020Bf7+" trying to solve the chess notation puzzle. I especially laughed at the rule "must include today's Worldle" and I'm happy with my solution including every emoji for "must include the current phase of the moon as an emoji." (HackerNews doesn't seem to display emoji. My solution is to paste every moon phase emoji.) Excited to see what's next after figuring out the best move in this Chess puzzle. This reminds me of trying to manually construct an Autogram like below. This one is a quote someone else made. I tried to do it myself and it is so hard because the counts keep changing as you write out other counts! Only the fool would take trouble to verify that his sentence was composed of ten a's, three b's, four c's, four d's, forty-six e's, sixteen f's, four g's, thirteen h's, fifteen i's, two k's, nine l's, four m's, twenty-five n's, twenty-four o's, five p's, sixteen r's, forty-one s's, thirty-seven t's, ten u's, eight v's, eight w's, four x's, eleven y's, twenty-seven commas, twenty-three apostrophes, seven hyphens and, last but not least, a single ! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autogram https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autogram
- chankstein38 3y ago
  You could potentially paste the chess notation into chatgpt and ask for the next move! It's not perfect but it'd be better than me at it at least
  - ailef 3y ago
    ChatGPT is really and at chess. I'd just paste it in one of the online chess engines.

  P = phosphorus, atomic number 15 V = vanadium, 23 I = Iodine, 53 So in your password they add up to 167

    Actually Pa from "Password" will br Protactinium at 91. I also started off by typing password and had to change the Pa to a smaller element.

I keep getting illegal move on the chess problem.. although my move is not illegal. [Variant "From Position"] [FEN "3k4/1p3Bp1/p5r1/8/P3P1N1/5Pp1/1P1r4/2R4K b - - 0 1"] 1... Rgd6 When I put Rgd6 I get "d6 (Illegal move)"
- shawabawa3 3y ago
  I'm not sure if this is your problem, but you have to include captures (x), check (+) and checkmate (#) if applicable
- hgsgm 3y ago
  Try Rd6 or Rd6+ for check.
  - icoder 3y ago
    Or Rd6++ for check mate
    - mtlmtlmtlmtl 3y ago
      # is check mate, ++ is double check.
valiant55 3y ago
Oh god, I got to the part where the password starts catching on fire, eventually poor Paul was consumed by the fire.
- hgsgm 3y ago
  I deleted Paul :-(
batmansmom1 3y ago
A warning to future players: I got to rule 16 and was given an egg named paul that I had to keep safe. Then on rule 18 a fire (of emojis) broke out in my password, killing paul and ending the game. Dont be like me, keep Paul safe.
- FinnKuhn 3y ago
  same here... Paul burnt to death an I lost :(
  - YellOh 3y ago
    Thirding it. I'm guessing the move is to back up the password, move Paul to the first/last character, and delete everything to save him. Update: this strat works. But then don't immediately overfeed him.
- blharr 3y ago
  Later on there is a rule where you have to feed Paul bugs, and I lost by feeding him too much
  - captainpiggies 3y ago
    I, too, overfed Paul :(
  - riffraff 3y ago
    for me, he starved while I was looking for a youtube video and I am not strong enough to play through this again, even if I loved the game
    - whatatita 3y ago
      Exactly same here. I gave him too much food while I searched and returned to a dead paul :(
    - robinjfisher 3y ago
      Yep. Went to find a YT video and came back to find Paul was dead. Couldn't bring myself to start again.
rubyron 3y ago
This would be great to use on my sites so users choose stronger passwords. Is there an api planned, or is it open source?

  An api that's $1/request unless you have a prime number of requests, then it's free.
- _flux 3y ago
  Needs to have the actual password obscured, e.g. with asterisks. In fact, also the length should be obscured, show nothing, as is the way in Unix password prompts!

VIIJuneVShell65$bw6n6aboutHecroatia0000 so far. Croatia was extraordinarily hard to guess. Currently stuck on the chess game, if anyone has generic advice on how to not suck at chess. Fun bonus: it can't seem to figure out what's going on with the knight. Using "K", "N", or "S" for knight all get me "invalid notation" warnings. I'm having a lot of fun. New update: got the chess answer! It will accept "N" for my Knight iff I make stupid moves with it. Moving my knight to take a bishop is "invalid notation", but apparently putting it in the middle of nowhere to be captured by a rook is the best possible move. Final update: Paul died in a fire. :I
- geluso 3y ago
  oh man I got really lucky and was prompted with a picture of Italy. I got it right on my first try. I didn't realize the country images rotated!
- blharr 3y ago
  The notation for capturing should be something like "Nxe6." I'm guessing the mistake you're making is just doing "Ne6"

  I would find it hilarious if someone would come up with a password generator that generates passwords that would pass this game.

xp84 3y ago
This isn’t really significantly more irritating than half the password “rules” forced on me by major companies who ought to know better. “A special character…” Okay, how about: “ “No, not THAT special!! (Shh, we are worried about a SQL injection attack… in your password… which we dont even know how to escape)” Let the many implications sink in for a minute.)
- verbify 3y ago
  It doesn't necessarily mean that they don't know how to escape special characters, it just might mean that they're employing a defence in depth approach.
- arp242 3y ago
  I once had to deal with an site that would be fine with a ' in the password when setting it, but would throw a mysterious error every time you tried to log in. For about 2 years I reset my password many times, always to the same one and that would also log me in. I just figured the site was broken for me but this worked and contacting support is rarely helpful for stuff like this so whatever, until it suddenly dawned on me the ' might be the "problem".

This turns into a mildly frustrating riddle as some of the challenges are random (captcha, Street View, chess challenge) and end up making it impossible to continue. Got my number added up from the captcha and the best chess move came to be Qh6 (I would need a chess master to disagree with me) so I'm already busted on the add to 25 and then it tells me the "Qh6" notation is illegal (Ok, I was never good with chess notation but I'm pretty sure that says Queen to H6...)
- sakras 3y ago
  Yeah I think there's a bug with the chess notation, I also had it tell me Rh3 was illegal notation. Interestingly Rf3 is not illegal notation but an illegal move for me.
  - TFortunato 3y ago
    I thought I had this issue, but it turned out I had to remember the "+" at the end, when I put my opponent in check
    - danuker 3y ago
      THANK YOU! I was stuck not knowing the "+". In my case it was a check mate.
- fisian 3y ago
  I also had to figure out how to enter chess notation. As it turns out you have to add "x" after the piece if you want to capture or "+" suffix for check.
  - lcabral 3y ago
    Ah. That might be it... Anyhow after staring at that chess challenge I was sure to get a mate in two moves with the Qh6 but the captcha filled with numbers plus the add to 25 left me with only 3 to spare... So no way am I winning this game.

I got a (seemingly?) impossible problem: - roman numerals must multiply to 35 - my chess move is: Rf7+ - Atomic numbers of elements must add up to 200 So I need V, VII and Rf7+ in there but then the atomic numbers are way past 200 already.

    Well I is for Iodine,which has 53 as its atomic number, so this definitely wouldn't work anyways. XXXV is the way around this.

  - neurosage 3y ago

    - zeven7 3y ago
      But that's not a problem because that leaves you with only V and R which add to 98, so you only need to add some others to get it up to 200.

Well. I got stuck. Rule 9: The Roman numerals in your password should multiply to 35 Rule 14: Name this country (Malasysia for me) Given that M=1000 in roman numerals, I need to find x such that x*1000=35 How do I write 0.035 in Roman Numerals?!

Amazing. I've always wanted a similar game card readers: Remove your card before the clerk gets annoyed at you. The screen is flashes various messages like "PLEASE REMOVE YOUR CARD after the TRANSACTION IS COMPLETE". Push the card too hard and the reader falls off the table. Pull at an angle or too slow and it drags the reader.

So Neal solves Wordle every midnight to keep this game running?
- chimeracoder 3y ago
  Not sure if this is currently the case, but Wordle used to have the entire list of words for each day served in client-side code (I believe it was a static list with modular arithmetic, or something along those lines). So doing "view source" would not only tell you the current day's word, but also allow you to view the answers for any future day. When the NYT bought the site, they shuffled the word list but (at least at first) kept this system. They may have obfuscated it by now though. Either way, since Wordle is a free game, it's not difficult to automate a script that will attempt to solve it and grab the correct answer.
- ripley12 3y ago
  Not sure exactly where the data comes from, but the game uses an API at https://neal.fun/api/password-game/wordle?date=2023-06-15 https://neal.fun/api/password-game/wordle?date=2023-06-15 Seems like it has answers up to July 30, so he's either a time traveller or it's possible to get future answers by looking at the Wordle source.
  - gpvos 3y ago
    I thought the NY Times had reworked it so you couldn't see the answer in advance anymore, but maybe not. The current code is too obfuscated for me to figure it out easily.

This is now my new favorite way to explain to people that passwords should not exist. Long live FIDO2 and passkeys.
- chme 3y ago
  I don't think passwords will be replaced. This is more of a demonstration of over complicated password rules, than against passwords itself. Hardware and biometric keys can be stolen, cloned and lost. And trusting third-parties with keys to harddrive encryption is also not really trustworthy.
  - lrvick 3y ago
    1. You can have multiple hardware keys or devices bound to an account as a backup of for ease of use. 2. Passkeys allow you to pick a backup solution of your choosing. Could be your own nextcloud server in the corner. This is no different than giving someone a choice of cloud-synced password manager Both solutions avoid phishing, password re-use, keylogging, or people picking weak passwords. There is no excuse for anyone even supporting passwords at this point. Sysadmins have not commonly used passwords for ssh in 20 years, favoring private keys on either hardware or encrypted disks. Keys better than passwords-over-the-wire in every way.
    - chme 3y ago
      > 1. You can have multiple hardware keys or devices bound to an account as a backup of for ease of use. How does that help if someone steals your hardware key, login in with it and then puts it back. You don't even know that it was stolen and your account was messed with. With a good password you know if you tell someone. Granted people could film you typing your password, but stealing your hardware key is much easier. > 2. Passkeys allow you to pick a backup solution of your choosing. Could be your own nextcloud server in the corner. This is no different than giving someone a choice of cloud-synced password manager This isn't about backup, but trust. Do I trust a third-party to manage the keys to my kingdom? No. And even if, the third-party is a much easier target for 3 letter agencies, governments or other rich/influential bad actors. Also I haven't seen a solution where passkey can be used to decrypt my LUKS partition. > There is no excuse for anyone even supporting passwords at this point. Sysadmins have not commonly used passwords for ssh in 20 years, favoring private keys on either hardware or encrypted disks. Keys better than passwords-over-the-wire in every way. The encrypted disks are hopefully protected with a password, and not magically unencrypted, just by booting it with the right TPM configuration. The hardware hopefully requires a pin or password in order to unlock the SSH key, and the SSH key on disk is hopefully encrypted with a password as well.

Amazing ! Died after the URL, it was too much to recalculate the atomic numbers and keep track of Paul. Maybe this chicken was the most unfair part of this game, the random captcha and country make it impossible to retry easily (maybe the time frame for feeding could be slowed down); but loved everything else, really ingenious. cshell-may-p4pde-about-bulgaria-00-991-Qg2+-XXXV-bFmN- -iamloved-https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gWJaxlYRSc0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gWJaxlYRSc0

  Same here, I retried at least ten times if, sometimes stumbling over a copy paste error that got Paul killed, but keeping the chicken alive was the choke point for me. Perhaps it would be allowed to encode part of the url? Also wouldn't url's with roman numbers in it fail the entire thing as 35 only can be obtained by multiplying 5 and 7? Ah right, or 35, true that but still same issue.
wavemode 3y ago
For anyone else who was struggling to make the leap year work with all the other math: 0 is a leap year. For anyone else struggling with how to make the country name work with roman numerals or element names, you can lowercase the country name then it doesn't count as a roman numeral nor element. If your chess move is illegal, make sure you're also notating the effect of the move (Nxe6 for N captures on e6, not just Ne6. Ne6+ if it's a check. Ne6# if it's mate.) Spaces are also allowed so feel free to break up parts of the password to separate things and prevent them from interfering with each other. Use XXXV as the roman numeral. Easiest to work with since only V (23) is an element. Reroll your color if its hex has any numbers in it. You'll thank me later. I made it to the final challenge (password must contain the current time) and it became extremely difficult because the current time, the length of the password itself, and a pesky 9 that was in my youtube URL were just too much to add up to 25 (even though I tried to overlap things, like 3:383 to cover 3:38 current time as well as 383 prime password length). I would've needed to somehow reupload a video that didn't have any digits in it (or at least one that had a lower digit like 1 or 2) or wait until it was 10:00 pm or something.

  > For anyone else struggling with how to make the country name work with roman numerals or element names, you can lowercase the country name then it doesn't count as a roman numeral nor element. Unfortunately, "country name" and "all the vowels in your password must be bold" are fundamentally incompatible, since it doesn't recognize country names unless they have unbolded vowels. EDIT: Gah. I tried every Unicode "bold" variant I found, before finding that the password field had in fact become a rich text field and allowed actual "bold".

However it did seem to get past that rule to rule 26 (while still complaining about the roman numerals): "A sacrifice must be made. Pick 2 letters that you will no longer be able to use."

Managed to make it almost all the way to the end! Note that "is this your final password?" is not the last challenge, despite it being the last thing on the lists other people have posted. Afterward you're asked to retype your password which is almost impossible to do, given that it's in various sizes (with any zeroes at font size zero) and partially in windings. I recommend copy/pasting before you get there. It doesn't let you copy once that final resubmit form appears.

Special attention was given to the security questions, but somehow spammers keep picking the simplest one.
tiago123 3y ago
I'm stuck at the atomic numbers rule... Does someone know how to solve it?
- blharr 3y ago
  Because of the personalized nature, you can end up with elements that make it impossible. For example, "VII" and "V" is forced by Roman Numerals needing to multiply to 35. Then, my chess puzzle was "Rf7+" The atomic numbers - V: 23, I: 53, Rf: 104 2×23+2×53+104 adds to a number over 200, which is frustrating because it seems like there should be a trick, or it should at least be solvable
  - pynappo 3y ago
    you can just use switch to XXXV. No I needed.
- hnick 3y ago
  Work out what you must have based on the rules, list them out, then subtract from 200. For me, V and VII from the roman numerals = 152 so I needed 48. Did He and Pd. Then of course a later rule came along.
tiago123 3y ago
I'm stuck at the atomic numbers rule... How to solve it?
- sprokolopolis 3y ago
  Look at the periodic table and find elements that add up to what you need. In the game lowercase letters will not count as an elemnet unless paired with an uppercase, so either 1 capital letter or One capital and one lowercase letter as the atomic symbols.

msravi 3y ago
So does this sometimes reach an unsolvable state? I have a captcha whose digits sum up to 24, a condition that all digits should sum up to 25, and the best chess move is Ne6+ (accepted), but there's no way to get all digits to sum to 25! mAy@VpepsiVIIm3588tractSibelgiumNe6+ m3588 is the captcha and Ne6+ is the chess move in the above I've also tried putting something like -5 in the hope that it recognizes negative numbers, but no luck!
- gault8121 3y ago
  When you break the captcha rule, you can re-select the captcha. You want to keep re-rolling till you find a low number combo. There are a few rules where you can re-roll to get a better random number. In general, it gets harder and harder to stay under the 25 limit as you progress.
- purpleflame1257 3y ago
  You can refresh the captcha to make it work.

If you use duckduckgo to search for youtube videos that's the easiest way over that hurdle because DDG will show the length of the video as an overlay for the thumbnail. Just search for "17 minute timer" or whatever is the closest but less than the length you need. Make sure to sort by short/medium/long as well to limit it to the proper window. Made it to "the length of your password must be included in your password" and decided to throw in the towel.

hotboy69 3y ago
on rule 18: "The elements in your password must have atomic numbers that add up to 200." My element is "Na" and it says my roman numerals are a problem. They are "VI" and "IV". Not too sure where to go from here.
- earth_walker 3y ago
  Hint: V = Vanadium and I = Iodine.
- tervuren 3y ago
  the roman numerals are all good man its the elements. the "N" in "Na" is adding 90 onto the numeral rule, for rule 18 you can use multiple two letter elements just try and find ones that don't contain roman numerals and you'll be fine
dudinax 3y ago
Password wouldn't recognize chess moves on row 7 or 8, and the best move was on row 7!
crumblingaway 3y ago
That's a shame, I reached an impossible situation. The best chess move is Re5+ which includes the letters Re which is the element Rhenium with atomic number 75. However since the roman numerals need to multiply to 35 then the only valid solution is having VII and V (XXXV for 35 is not recognized for some reason), and V is Vanadium with atomic number 23 and I is Iodine with 53. That already leaves me with 227, above the 200 threshold for one of the rules.
- blazifex 3y ago
  You should be able to do XXXV and I to get 35, I think it needs two roman numerals to multiply (that worked for me at least)

KolmogorovComp 3y ago
Very nice game! Little trick for the moon-phase, just past all emojis. Unfortunately got a dead-end yesterday when reaching the rule (18?) about the sum of the periodic elements equating to 200, with the chess move being Nh8 (containing Nh, no 113) and the wordle solution being (tract, containing Ra, no 81), making it impossible to go below 201. I would have liked in that case a way to request another chess puzzle, just like it is possible to do for the captcha.

Are some of them unsolvable? Mine says has to include the captcha 52447 & chess move Rxg6+ & leap year and add up to 25. From the captcha + the chess move alone I am already above 25... I tried subtracting, did not work. Anyone have an idea here?

Find a Flaw in the logic!! I had a captcha value "ex0888" and the answer for the chess puzzle was Rd8+. Now I can not statisfy the Rule "digit sum adds up to number 25" cause total of all the digits in password was exceeding the 25. Can't go ahead of this! But It was fun playing and keeping up all the rules!

Got to level 31 on mobile. The different font sizes for different characters ended up crashing the browser. I went out just after this: > XXXV-75-may-Shell-dbfen-straw--china-Qf5+-0000-i am loved- https://youtube.com/watch?v=BprGlhu_Hfs- https://youtube.com/watch?v=BprGlhu_Hfs- Po-@@@@@-@@@@@-@@@@@-@@@@@-@@@@@-@@@@@-@@@@@-@@@@@#cd1520-xngxc-$$$$$$-$$$$$$-$$$$$$$-$$$$$$-$$$$$$-$$$$$$-$$$$$$-$$$$$$-$$$$$$-$$$$$$-$$$$$$-$$$$$$-$$$$$$- Edit- emojis don’t save.. Couple of tips. - 0000 is a leap year and doesn’t add to your numbers tally - “not strong enough” - paste the strong man emoji three times. - hex color - screenshot and upload to a hex color picker (on iOS turn off the screen dimming). Choose a hex color with low numbers. Enter as lowercase to avoid creating more chemical elements such as “F” and “C” - chess move - install Chessvision.ai and upload screenshot. Taking a piece add an “x” between the piece taking the move and the target square e.g. Qxe5. Taking a piece and putting the king in check Qxe5+. Checkmate Qxe5# - captcha - avoid numbers. Leave all lowercase. Avoid captchas that could be confused for a chess move (e.g. contains “e5”) - YouTube URL - google “mm:ss YouTube” replacing the minutes and seconds. Only use one without Roman numerals and very few numbers in the URL. The times are shown in the screenshot on google search - on fire? Smash the delete button. Add loads of zeros to pad it out to give yourself a chance. You can delete them later. - copy the password regularly in a notes file. After Everything goes up on flames you can paste it back in - country - enter it in lower case. Take a look around if you can and hint for tips. Road signs, tree types (cold or warm climate), road name overlays, advertising, company names, etc. only once I couldn’t figure it out. Middle of a ruined castle?? - you not allowed to overfeed Paul. I kept him up at 5 bugs and it allowed me to jump between apps and jump back. Maybe you can add more but I didn’t risk it. - ChatGPT can help you with the periodic table and help you with the math.

I lost at rule 35 (out of 36) because I overfed Paul. Some tips I gathered: 9. Use XXXV, as the chemical symbols contained in (V,VII) add up 152, which is already very close to 200 for rule 18; 10. Refresh the captcha so that it only includes lowercase letters, you'll need numbers later and they can't add up to more than 25 according to rule 5; 14. Pray for having a country with a short name, whose first letter isn't also a chemical element and that includes common letters (curse you Zimbabwe); 15. I think 4 is a leap year... 17. Put Paul at the start or the end of your password; 19. You can bold the whole string to meet the condition, but beware of rule 26. Also, before meeting the condition, copy-paste your password elsewhere; 20. Just select the fire and some more characters and delete them, then fill the gap from your copy-pasted password; 22. Use "i am loved" (all lowercase, cf. rule 18) as you'll need to sacrifice two letters for rule 25, but you will already use 'o' for youtu.be, 'v' for XXXV, 'e' for youtu.be, and probably 'l' and 'd' in your captcha, URL (cf. rule 24) or color (cf. rule 28). Also, it's the shorter word of the three, and for rules 32 and 33 it's simpler to add padding symbols than to remove mandatory characters to control the length of the password; 23. Try to have between 2 and 6 max worms at any time, it should give you enough time to think without overfeeding Paul. 9 worms will definitely kill Paul (maybe less, but 6 should be safe); 24. On Chrome, you can use the "YouTube Time Filter" extension to find videos of the correct timelength. On YouTube, type a very generic request (like "game", "car", or even just "p"), open the filters and choose "Video" (to filter out shorts) as well as a length range (to reduce client-side filtering) then in the YouTube Time Filter insert a length range one second before and one second after the required range (the game has a one second leniency). Then scroll and scroll. Of course, once you find a suitable video, strip any superfluous parameter from its length, and make sure that the video id doesn't include any uppercase 'M', 'D', 'C', 'X' (because those roman numerals don't multiply to 35, cf. rule 9) and preferably no 'V' or 'I' (because of rules 9 and 18). It's hard, but with a bit of patience, it doable. Also use the short URL (youtu.be, not youtube.com) and trim the "https://www https://www.", you don't need them; 25. If you applied those tips correctly and you were lucky on the captcha and the country, you should be able to strip the letters 'w' and 'z' at the very least. Other letters if you were very lucky (maybe try to choose another month for rule 6 if it can make you unuse a letter, or maybe you should have used "i am enough" ?); 26. Just put the whole string in italics; 28. Refresh until you have a color without numbers (or 0 at most), for rule 5; 32. It's better to have 123 characters than 97 (cf. rule 5); 33. Sorry, I meant 113. Other probable candidates, depending on your current password length are: 101, 103, 113, 131, 151, 211, 223, 233, 311 and 313. Other numbers are fine too, but it's up to you to see if you can have them depending on your URL and chess move. Maybe include 8 padding symbols at the end of the password, in prevision to rule 35. Know that the length will vary when you feed Paul, but the length should usually be correct; 34. Just skip this one, really; 35. Unfortunately, I didn't pass that one as I overfed Paul, but I think it would be easier to play around midnight, ideally at 00:00:00, because you know, rule 5. But make sure to write it at 23:59 and change the police size to 0px before midnight, so every rule can be met at midnight. Not sure if the seconds are needed or not, since I didn't pass it.

p4nthera_ 3y ago
To add a couple of things to this: 9. I use XXXV (23), He (2), Fm (100), these make it easier to adjust the symbols later on. 15. 0 is a leap year 20. Ctrl+Backspace will delete the whole fire if you place your cursor at the end of it 24. If you type your exact time into youtube (e.g. 32:15) you will find many videos with that length, bad thing about this solution however is that if you're given a time that can also be a date (e.g 21:01) you'll just get a bunch of news broadcasts from that day. Also I think the limit for Paul is 5 caterpillars, I keep it at 4 just to be safe though.

I'm stuck at "iatetomatoesyesterday0265Z#521juneVpepsiVIIxngxcaboutAg[moon emojis]italy2020Bf7+" trying to solve the chess notation puzzle. I especially laughed at the rule "must include today's Worldle" and I'm happy with my solution including every emoji for "must include the current phase of the moon as an emoji." (HackerNews doesn't seem to display emoji. My solution is to paste every moon phase emoji.) Excited to see what's next after figuring out the best move in this Chess puzzle. This reminds me of trying to manually construct an Autogram like below. This one is a quote someone else made. I tried to do it myself and it is so hard because the counts keep changing as you write out other counts! Only the fool would take trouble to verify that his sentence was composed of ten a's, three b's, four c's, four d's, forty-six e's, sixteen f's, four g's, thirteen h's, fifteen i's, two k's, nine l's, four m's, twenty-five n's, twenty-four o's, five p's, sixteen r's, forty-one s's, thirty-seven t's, ten u's, eight v's, eight w's, four x's, eleven y's, twenty-seven commas, twenty-three apostrophes, seven hyphens and, last but not least, a single ! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autogram https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autogram

FinnKuhn 3y ago
same here... Paul burnt to death an I lost :(

  Thirding it. I'm guessing the move is to back up the password, move Paul to the first/last character, and delete everything to save him. Update: this strat works. But then don't immediately overfeed him.

Fun bonus: it can't seem to figure out what's going on with the knight. Using "K", "N", or "S" for knight all get me "invalid notation" warnings. I'm having a lot of fun. New update: got the chess answer! It will accept "N" for my Knight iff I make stupid moves with it. Moving my knight to take a bishop is "invalid notation", but apparently putting it in the middle of nowhere to be captured by a rook is the best possible move. Final update: Paul died in a fire. :I

This isn’t really significantly more irritating than half the password “rules” forced on me by major companies who ought to know better. “A special character…” Okay, how about: “ “No, not THAT special!! (Shh, we are worried about a SQL injection attack… in your password… which we dont even know how to escape)” Let the many implications sink in for a minute.)

It doesn't necessarily mean that they don't know how to escape special characters, it just might mean that they're employing a defence in depth approach.

I once had to deal with an site that would be fine with a ' in the password when setting it, but would throw a mysterious error every time you tried to log in. For about 2 years I reset my password many times, always to the same one and that would also log me in. I just figured the site was broken for me but this worked and contacting support is rarely helpful for stuff like this so whatever, until it suddenly dawned on me the ' might be the "problem".

This turns into a mildly frustrating riddle as some of the challenges are random (captcha, Street View, chess challenge) and end up making it impossible to continue. Got my number added up from the captcha and the best chess move came to be Qh6 (I would need a chess master to disagree with me) so I'm already busted on the add to 25 and then it tells me the "Qh6" notation is illegal (Ok, I was never good with chess notation but I'm pretty sure that says Queen to H6...)

sakras 3y ago
Yeah I think there's a bug with the chess notation, I also had it tell me Rh3 was illegal notation. Interestingly Rf3 is not illegal notation but an illegal move for me.

I also had to figure out how to enter chess notation. As it turns out you have to add "x" after the piece if you want to capture or "+" suffix for check.
- lcabral 3y ago
  Ah. That might be it... Anyhow after staring at that chess challenge I was sure to get a mate in two moves with the Qh6 but the captcha filled with numbers plus the add to 25 left me with only 3 to spare... So no way am I winning this game.

Well. I got stuck. Rule 9: The Roman numerals in your password should multiply to 35 Rule 14: Name this country (Malasysia for me) Given that M=1000 in roman numerals, I need to find x such that x*1000=35 How do I write 0.035 in Roman Numerals?!

Amazing. I've always wanted a similar game card readers: Remove your card before the clerk gets annoyed at you. The screen is flashes various messages like "PLEASE REMOVE YOUR CARD after the TRANSACTION IS COMPLETE". Push the card too hard and the reader falls off the table. Pull at an angle or too slow and it drags the reader.

So Neal solves Wordle every midnight to keep this game running?

chimeracoder 3y ago
Not sure if this is currently the case, but Wordle used to have the entire list of words for each day served in client-side code (I believe it was a static list with modular arithmetic, or something along those lines). So doing "view source" would not only tell you the current day's word, but also allow you to view the answers for any future day. When the NYT bought the site, they shuffled the word list but (at least at first) kept this system. They may have obfuscated it by now though. Either way, since Wordle is a free game, it's not difficult to automate a script that will attempt to solve it and grab the correct answer.
ripley12 3y ago
Not sure exactly where the data comes from, but the game uses an API at https://neal.fun/api/password-game/wordle?date=2023-06-15 https://neal.fun/api/password-game/wordle?date=2023-06-15 Seems like it has answers up to July 30, so he's either a time traveller or it's possible to get future answers by looking at the Wordle source.
- gpvos 3y ago
  I thought the NY Times had reworked it so you couldn't see the answer in advance anymore, but maybe not. The current code is too obfuscated for me to figure it out easily.

This is now my new favorite way to explain to people that passwords should not exist. Long live FIDO2 and passkeys.

chme 3y ago
I don't think passwords will be replaced. This is more of a demonstration of over complicated password rules, than against passwords itself. Hardware and biometric keys can be stolen, cloned and lost. And trusting third-parties with keys to harddrive encryption is also not really trustworthy.
- lrvick 3y ago
  1. You can have multiple hardware keys or devices bound to an account as a backup of for ease of use. 2. Passkeys allow you to pick a backup solution of your choosing. Could be your own nextcloud server in the corner. This is no different than giving someone a choice of cloud-synced password manager Both solutions avoid phishing, password re-use, keylogging, or people picking weak passwords. There is no excuse for anyone even supporting passwords at this point. Sysadmins have not commonly used passwords for ssh in 20 years, favoring private keys on either hardware or encrypted disks. Keys better than passwords-over-the-wire in every way.
  - chme 3y ago
    > 1. You can have multiple hardware keys or devices bound to an account as a backup of for ease of use. How does that help if someone steals your hardware key, login in with it and then puts it back. You don't even know that it was stolen and your account was messed with. With a good password you know if you tell someone. Granted people could film you typing your password, but stealing your hardware key is much easier. > 2.

No. And even if, the third-party is a much easier target for 3 letter agencies, governments or other rich/influential bad actors.

The hardware hopefully requires a pin or password in order to unlock the SSH key, and the SSH key on disk is hopefully encrypted with a password as well.

Amazing ! Died after the URL, it was too much to recalculate the atomic numbers and keep track of Paul. Maybe this chicken was the most unfair part of this game, the random captcha and country make it impossible to retry easily (maybe the time frame for feeding could be slowed down); but loved everything else, really ingenious. cshell-may-p4pde-about-bulgaria-00-991-Qg2+-XXXV-bFmN- -iamloved-https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gWJaxlYRSc0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gWJaxlYRSc0

icoder 3y ago
Same here, I retried at least ten times if, sometimes stumbling over a copy paste error that got Paul killed, but keeping the chicken alive was the choke point for me. Perhaps it would be allowed to encode part of the url? Also wouldn't url's with roman numbers in it fail the entire thing as 35 only can be obtained by multiplying 5 and 7? Ah right, or 35, true that but still same issue.

wavemode 3y ago

For anyone else who was struggling to make the leap year work with all the other math: 0 is a leap year. For anyone else struggling with how to make the country name work with roman numerals or element names, you can lowercase the country name then it doesn't count as a roman numeral nor element. If your chess move is illegal, make sure you're also notating the effect of the move (Nxe6 for N captures on e6, not just Ne6. Ne6+ if it's a check. Ne6# if it's mate.) Spaces are also allowed so feel free to break up parts of the password to separate things and prevent them from interfering with each other. Use XXXV as the roman numeral. Easiest to work with since only V (23) is an element. Reroll your color if its hex has any numbers in it. You'll thank me later. I made it to the final challenge (password must contain the current time) and it became extremely difficult because the current time, the length of the password itself, and a pesky 9 that was in my youtube URL were just too much to add up to 25 (even though I tried to overlap things, like 3:383 to cover 3:38 current time as well as 383 prime password length). I would've needed to somehow reupload a video that didn't have any digits in it (or at least one that had a lower digit like 1 or 2) or wait until it was 10:00 pm or something.

JoshTriplett 3y ago
> For anyone else struggling with how to make the country name work with roman numerals or element names, you can lowercase the country name then it doesn't count as a roman numeral nor element. Unfortunately, "country name" and "all the vowels in your password must be bold" are fundamentally incompatible, since it doesn't recognize country names unless they have unbolded vowels. EDIT: Gah. I tried every Unicode "bold" variant I found, before finding that the password field had in fact become a rich text field and allowed actual "bold".

However it did seem to get past that rule to rule 26 (while still complaining about the roman numerals): "A sacrifice must be made. Pick 2 letters that you will no longer be able to use."

Managed to make it almost all the way to the end! Note that "is this your final password?" is not the last challenge, despite it being the last thing on the lists other people have posted. Afterward you're asked to retype your password which is almost impossible to do, given that it's in various sizes (with any zeroes at font size zero) and partially in windings. I recommend copy/pasting before you get there. It doesn't let you copy once that final resubmit form appears.

It means that whatever strings in your password that are elements in the periodic table, should have atomic numbers (in the periodic table) that add up to 200. So go find a table on wikipedia, add up the elements it already recognized and choose strategically a couple of new ones to add !

I am stuck on the chess one because my captcha included text with "xe8" which could be read as a (albeit confusing) algebraic notation. So I give this game a 6/10 for bugginess. Would not recommend the preorder. edit - after reading some of the comments, I realized I could change my destiny by resetting the captcha

You can also enter more than one chess move. only one has to be right.
quantumsequoia 3y ago
There is no bug, it only cares the correct answer is present. It's okay if other substrings are also valid chess notation, that won't prevent you from passing the rule if you include the correct one

  the wordle question is bugged because it doesn't handle time zones the same way that wordle does - so only works in some places

Like the others said, that is not a bug, you can add other chess moves. One bug however is that bold characters break other answers.

  The first result of "todays wordle" is AI-generated blogspam that might have the answer buried in there somewhere. The first result of "today's wordle" is the wordle game itself.

Special attention was given to the security questions, but somehow spammers keep picking the simplest one.

tiago123 3y ago

I'm stuck at the atomic numbers rule... Does someone know how to solve it?

blharr 3y ago
Because of the personalized nature, you can end up with elements that make it impossible. For example, "VII" and "V" is forced by Roman Numerals needing to multiply to 35. Then, my chess puzzle was "Rf7+" The atomic numbers - V: 23, I: 53, Rf: 104 2×23+2×53+104 adds to a number over 200, which is frustrating because it seems like there should be a trick, or it should at least be solvable
- pynappo 3y ago
  you can just use switch to XXXV. No I needed.
hnick 3y ago
Work out what you must have based on the rules, list them out, then subtract from 200. For me, V and VII from the roman numerals = 152 so I needed 48. Did He and Pd. Then of course a later rule came along.

tiago123 3y ago

I'm stuck at the atomic numbers rule... How to solve it?

sprokolopolis 3y ago
Look at the periodic table and find elements that add up to what you need. In the game lowercase letters will not count as an elemnet unless paired with an uppercase, so either 1 capital letter or One capital and one lowercase letter as the atomic symbols.

msravi 3y ago

So does this sometimes reach an unsolvable state? I have a captcha whose digits sum up to 24, a condition that all digits should sum up to 25, and the best chess move is Ne6+ (accepted), but there's no way to get all digits to sum to 25! mAy@VpepsiVIIm3588tractSibelgiumNe6+ m3588 is the captcha and Ne6+ is the chess move in the above I've also tried putting something like -5 in the hope that it recognizes negative numbers, but no luck!

gault8121 3y ago
When you break the captcha rule, you can re-select the captcha. You want to keep re-rolling till you find a low number combo. There are a few rules where you can re-roll to get a better random number. In general, it gets harder and harder to stay under the 25 limit as you progress.
purpleflame1257 3y ago
You can refresh the captcha to make it work.

tw04 3y ago

If you use duckduckgo to search for youtube videos that's the easiest way over that hurdle because DDG will show the length of the video as an overlay for the thumbnail. Just search for "17 minute timer" or whatever is the closest but less than the length you need. Make sure to sort by short/medium/long as well to limit it to the proper window. Made it to "the length of your password must be included in your password" and decided to throw in the towel.

hotboy69 3y ago

on rule 18: "The elements in your password must have atomic numbers that add up to 200." My element is "Na" and it says my roman numerals are a problem. They are "VI" and "IV". Not too sure where to go from here.

earth_walker 3y ago
Hint: V = Vanadium and I = Iodine.
tervuren 3y ago
the roman numerals are all good man its the elements. the "N" in "Na" is adding 90 onto the numeral rule, for rule 18 you can use multiple two letter elements just try and find ones that don't contain roman numerals and you'll be fine

dudinax 3y ago

Password wouldn't recognize chess moves on row 7 or 8, and the best move was on row 7!

crumblingaway 3y ago

That's a shame, I reached an impossible situation. The best chess move is Re5+ which includes the letters Re which is the element Rhenium with atomic number 75. However since the roman numerals need to multiply to 35 then the only valid solution is having VII and V (XXXV for 35 is not recognized for some reason), and V is Vanadium with atomic number 23 and I is Iodine with 53. That already leaves me with 227, above the 200 threshold for one of the rules.

blazifex 3y ago
You should be able to do XXXV and I to get 35, I think it needs two roman numerals to multiply (that worked for me at least)

For example "9 9 7", It counts the single digits so "10 15" would be "1 + 0 + 1 + 5 = 7" so in that case you'd need "10 15 9 9"

KolmogorovComp 3y ago

Very nice game! Little trick for the moon-phase, just past all emojis. Unfortunately got a dead-end yesterday when reaching the rule (18?) about the sum of the periodic elements equating to 200, with the chess move being Nh8 (containing Nh, no 113) and the wordle solution being (tract, containing Ra, no 81), making it impossible to go below 201. I would have liked in that case a way to request another chess puzzle, just like it is possible to do for the captcha.

tholgue 3y ago
you can write tract in lower case

I'm stuck on the chess one. The best move is Queen to e8, which I'm sure is represented in algebraic notation as Qe8. But it says that Qe8 is invalid notation.

Try Qe8+ if it's check or Qxe8 if you're taking a piece.

  Thanks! That worked, it was a check.

I am stuck with “ Agtractbnc2fshellXXXVjune995$” and can’t figure out the guess the country one. I have the one where you are in a cave with a lot of people with a hit with a no smoking and no shoes sign

I may have had that one; there was southeast asian writing on a sign and it was Malaysia.

Btw about the URL problem. I came up with the solution to use a YT link shortener in order to be able to keep the 25 and 200 atomic number rule.

It was fun until I had to provide an answer to Wordle, a game I have never played, did not know about, and really could care less about. gg though.

I made it up to Foo997!JanuaryVIIVStarbucksxbcbxTRAcTcambodia and it was a lot of fun, but I don't have the patience of somehow working a leap year into it

I gave up at "the current phase of the moon as an emoji." Looks like so of you guys tried harder than I did

For the country one, I got "www.google.com/maps/embed?pb=!4v1687119352692!6m8!1m7!1sINHBz4HdSwMAAAQrBnftjg!2m2!1d9.080961517214682!2d7.524398838108427!3f84.34!4f-4.950000000000003!5f0.4000000000000002" I think it should be 9.08N, 7.52E and it works

This has slowed down productivity in my and my friend's companies to a grinding halt. Thank you so much.

Are some of them unsolvable? Mine says has to include the captcha 52447 & chess move Rxg6+ & leap year and add up to 25. From the captcha + the chess move alone I am already above 25... I tried subtracting, did not work. Anyone have an idea here?

Got to the retype your password one and didn't copy beforehand. Not going through that again...

Find a Flaw in the logic!! I had a captcha value "ex0888" and the answer for the chess puzzle was Rd8+. Now I can not statisfy the Rule "digit sum adds up to number 25" cause total of all the digits in password was exceeding the 25. Can't go ahead of this! But It was fun playing and keeping up all the rules!

Got to level 31 on mobile. The different font sizes for different characters ended up crashing the browser. I went out just after this: > XXXV-75-may-Shell-dbfen-straw--china-Qf5+-0000-i am loved- https://youtube.com/watch?v=BprGlhu_Hfs- https://youtube.com/watch?v=BprGlhu_Hfs- Po-@@@@@-@@@@@-@@@@@-@@@@@-@@@@@-@@@@@-@@@@@-@@@@@#cd1520-xngxc-$$$$$$-$$$$$$-$$$$$$$-$$$$$$-$$$$$$-$$$$$$-$$$$$$-$$$$$$-$$$$$$-$$$$$$-$$$$$$-$$$$$$-$$$$$$- Edit- emojis don’t save.. Couple of tips. - 0000 is a leap year and doesn’t add to your numbers tally - “not strong enough” - paste the strong man emoji three times. - hex color - screenshot and upload to a hex color picker (on iOS turn off the screen dimming). Choose a hex color with low numbers. Enter as lowercase to avoid creating more chemical elements such as “F” and “C” - chess move - install Chessvision.ai and upload screenshot. Taking a piece add an “x” between the piece taking the move and the target square e.g. Qxe5. Taking a piece and putting the king in check Qxe5+. Checkmate Qxe5# - captcha - avoid numbers. Leave all lowercase. Avoid captchas that could be confused for a chess move (e.g. contains “e5”) - YouTube URL - google “mm:ss YouTube” replacing the minutes and seconds. Only use one without Roman numerals and very few numbers in the URL. The times are shown in the screenshot on google search - on fire? Smash the delete button. Add loads of zeros to pad it out to give yourself a chance. You can delete them later. - copy the password regularly in a notes file. After Everything goes up on flames you can paste it back in - country - enter it in lower case. Take a look around if you can and hint for tips. Road signs, tree types (cold or warm climate), road name overlays, advertising, company names, etc. only once I couldn’t figure it out. Middle of a ruined castle?? - you not allowed to overfeed Paul. I kept him up at 5 bugs and it allowed me to jump between apps and jump back. Maybe you can add more but I didn’t risk it. - ChatGPT can help you with the periodic table and help you with the math.
