Another puzzle, and this time the prize isn't a bundle game :)

Clicky.

For anyone who hasn't got a clue what is going on, check here. This puzzle is along the same lines as the last one...

As usual, please - no hints and no sharing answers/links.

Good luck all :)

Later, I also added an explanation. Hopefully it all makes a bit more sense now :)

Well, I tried to make sure that you could solve the anagram based clues without actually solving the anagram (one of the two solvers did so by looking for synonyms of the correct length).

Of course, spotting the anagram saves some time, but it was never essential :)

It seems that kind of puzzle where I'm weak as I'm not very fluent in English, but thank you for the puzzle giveaway. Please note itstoohard answers aren't case sensitive, "BRUTO" is the same as "Bruto".

Thanks Bruto. Someone else mentioned this last time too, but I forgot when I made the puzzle description! I'm a bit of a slow learner evidently!

I'll probably make a different sort of puzzle next time, where English isn't so important :)

I got 3 of them. I'm proud. Probably going to be all though.

Congratulations :) I wish Itstoohard would allow some sort of random spot prize system - maybe a lottery where each correct question allowed you one entry into a draw. Would be a nice reward for people who have partially completed the puzzle, but got stuck on a couple of questions.

Itstoohard.com is a great site, but a little extra customisation would be nice. Some other puzzle creators have had issues with leaked links, so a login system for entrants would be another welcome addition.

It'd be cool if you could see stats on the individual questions of your puzzles, like how many guesses, average number of guesses until correct, etc. even cooler if you could see the submitted wrong answers.

I think the first thing that needs to be implemented is the ability to edit the quizzes.

Yeah, and a login system.

Definitely. Really frustrating when you notice a typo in your puzzle, but can't do anything about it :(

Yeah - Some sort of feedback on whether a question was too easy or too difficuly would certainly help when designing future puzzles.

If the system showed incorrect answers as anonymous, that might be interesting, although I don't think it would be fair to give away the identity of the users :)

You willing to comment whether these include hintceptions? I've seen some with and some without.

Hintceptions? Well, if it helps, questions 5 and 9 are a similar type of question to 8 and 10.

Question 4 is altogether different :)

Oh, I thought it'd be impossible but I'm down to 3 (4,6,7)

Edit: wild guess! 6's right. 4,7 left.
Edit: 7 left.

No luck with 1 / 5 / 7 / 9 here. But I have 4, which means between us we've solved the whole test.

So...

Crap. Have only just saw this, and after getting two of the answers (probably the two easiest), have realised it's now finished. Oh well. Good puzzle, nice work out for the brain, might still see if i can solve anymore, would be interested to see an explanation of the answers as per your previous quiz.
