It seems to be more logic than numbers. To progress you need to work out the URL for the next screen, right? See that bit where it says '1' in the web address for the first page, and '2' for the second page? That's the bit you need to work out something new for each time.
E
A
R
L
Y
S
P
O
I
L
E
R
S
Three comes up as 'III', which is your clue for four - which you logically assume should be put in as 'IV'. Four comes up as 'four', so you put in five as 'five,' and so on. Get it? The skill is in guessing how to enter the next bit of the URL according to each clue you're given.
Yours, feeling condescending and hypocritical, considering he's still stuck on only seven/eight, even with Wills' clue, which I still don't get

Can't solve the clue for 15. Do you have to be a maths geek to work it out?
The answer's looking you square in the face.

Perhaps you could dispense a hint on getting from 17 to 18 then. Please, for the love of God!!

Thanks, Cosh. I knew that would come up sooner or later, I was just too lazy to do the math...

I got to 18 the same way Carnivore did. I think I may have to give this a rest and get on with some decorating, because I can't see any clues for 19!

This just seems stupid to me. Am I right in saying that in order to get the clue for 20 on page nineteen, you have to use a web browser that doesn't support javascript? Is that clever?
If that's the answer, I'm not impressed.

I used ReGet, a download manager, to grab the actual webpage. If you think that's bad wait until you get a few pages on!
I got to the end. (For future generations, I'd like to note the solutions page linked above only goes up to 20 as of this writing.)
you win (for now)
That was lots of fun.

Well, kept us all out of trouble for a bit, I suppose. I daresay there were a few less comic geeks roaming the streets this weekend while we tried to grapple with this quite annoying puzzle. Be honest - who just gave up?

After looking at the answers I knew I wouldn't have got even half of them because it relies upon you knowing code etc.
So it's not a real test of logic or IQ, but a load of bollocks.

Fiancee has temporarily given up trying to solve 21. Annoyingly, it looks like she has the solution but in her words 'Can't get the bastard thing to work!'.
