I'd like to give this another go and see those interested in playing this game are willing to help each other out and get to the ending together.
What is Notpron?
For those who have never heard of it;
Notpron is a huge digital puzzle/riddle game which is claimed to be the hardest on the internet. To solve each level you will need logic, time and the ability to think out of the box. There are no rules as to how you get to the next level, as long as you get there. If you think you found some clever way of getting around a level and into the next one, chances are that you simply found the solution.
How many levels are there?
There are currently
142 levels to beat. They are divided in 82 positive levels (1 - 82), 45 negative levels (0 - minus 45), 14 greek levels (Alpha - Nu) and the final level (< /notpron >).
Why would I hurt my brain on this?
Next to some braintraining and a good deal of fun in doing it together with friends, you also get a certificate if you manage to beat every single level without cheating, for what it's worth.
What about the walkthroughs I see on the net?
The puzzles and passwords of certain levels are changed regularly to prevent any walkthrough being accurate for long. There are cheating traps which you can fall into if you enter a previous password to get to a new level. These traps log your data. If you are caught cheating at Notpron you will not receive the certificate.

Now, before you start posting away with hints and solutions please read some rules and tips about Notpron.
1. Do NOT post solutions!!!
Please do NOT post direct solutions to Notpron levels. You take the fun out of someone elses game if you do. Posting hints is allowed but don't make it so incredibly obvious. For example, if a certain level is playing a piece of music which holds the key to the next level, don't go posting the title and artist. Give subtle hints which give people the means to progress without having the puzzle solved for them.
2. Avoiding Spoilers in Google
To avoid spoilers and solutions to Notpron levels while you're looking on Google for answers, add this to the search bar:

Make sure you include the - signs. This way it will exclude any website giving information about passwords and stuff.
3. Source Code

4. Save Level Status
To save your progress in Notpron just bookmark the pages and write down the usernames and passwords in a notepad file or something.

It should not really matter which browser you use, but the riddles were originally designed for Internet Explorer. Should you run into any problems with sound not playing or something else, see if a different browser fixes what you assume is a problem.
