This is an Excel file with 200 logos in it. The aim of this test is to try and name the brands which belong to the logo. I was able to guess 83 right and ended up with a 42%. There were a couple of logos which looked really familiar but I just couldn’t remember who they belonged to which made things really frustrating but still very fun. [Link]

Nat sent me this link to a Mind Reader thing. Basically you think of a two digit number lets say 20, you then add the two digits 2+0=2 and you subtract it from the original number 20-2=18. Then you look for the symbol next to the number and click on the crystal ball. I tried it now like 6 times and 6 times it guessed the right symbol. I don’t know how its guessing them!! [Link]

Update: I tried it a bunch of more times now and it got them all right again! Fucking weird..

Hacker Translator will translate any text you input into ‘H4X0R’ text (Leet). The idea of ‘H4X0R’ text is to replace as many letters with numbers/symbols as possible. Therefore, Hacker Translator would be ‘H4X0R ?r4|\|514?0r’. [Link]

Found this link on Will’s Weblog and decided to try it myself. As expected I turned out to be a Low-Rank Computer Geek. Hopefully Tivo-Guy will take the test. He should probably ace it. [Link]

Update: Tivo-Guy took the test and sadly scored only a 93. I thought for sure he would get 100. tsk tsk

This looks easy but I can’t figure it out how to get out of it! [Link]

Update: K managed to finish it. Here is the walkthrough.
