I will do a improved version of this puzzle by splitting the Q1-Q2-Q3-Q4 question so you won't have problem checking which part of the answer is wrong. The reward will be the same but I hope that this will help you solving it.

that's my reaction every time I see more than 4 questions :c

Got only Q5 and Q6 on my first run. I'm not sure I really get Q7.

Also got Q2-Q4. Trying to figure out the last symbol of Q1.

What kind of sorcery did you do to get Q1 right? :P I've been trying for the past half hour.
Comment has been collapsed.
Q4 was easy. I haven't found any type of number - that I assume it's the one - that is "gold". I found a number that could be related, but it's said to not belong to that category in multiple sources. And if it is the answer, I can't seem to get the symbol correct.

Still wrong. I either have the wrong variation of the name type or the entire wrong numbers. I guess I'll have to wait for the hints, since they drop in less than 10 minutes.

Well if it's by the number of dots, I have the wrong name type for Q1.

Hint helped with Q7. Never would have thought of that.

The answer format is there for this reason.
I've added at least one combination of answer either with or without brackets.
If there are 4 questions like in Question 1.
1] Question1
2] Question2
3] Question3
4] Questiion4
the answer format will be either
[answer1, answer2, answer3, answer4]
or
answer1, answer2, answer3, answer4

Well. I think it is a bad practice to include multiple answers in one question.
E.g. let's look at the seemingly easy Q4. I can use at least 3 variants for 1) 2 for 2) maybe 2 for 3) and several for 4). And I may be wrong on some(!) but since it's all multiple answers I can't distinguish between what's wrong and right and have to play the guess game.
The puzzle looks exceptionally interesting and I'm having fun at finding answers but it's not fun having a good answer met with reddish hue :)

On next puzzle I will try to stick with single answer for every question and try to include more possible correct answer.
I could also redo this puzzle splitting the multiple question that some Question have, so for example I could split Q1 in 4 different question so you will have a single answer. Let me know if you think that would help.
I will probably do that when I will get home from Uni.

Thank you for the answer.
I may suggest that you put up some kind of an additional check itstoohards for Q1-Q4 (or even all) with split answers (maybe in the hints section). When solved they would give the answer expected by corresponding question in the original puzzle.

Hmmm Got the first 7 without hints, though needed to play guess the format, which was annoying. The last one though is killing me. I need to wait for hints.
Sigh...
And the hint did not help. Fundamentally, I must be overthinking this because to my mind, I cannot see that if factor a and factor b are not divisors, then ab cannot be a divisor. But contrarywise, if a and b are divisors, then ab has to be.

I was stubborn enough to finally figure it out. Q1 and Q7 are definitely wrong; will explain later.

You may be overthinking it. I'm pretty sure Morshock is not a mathematician. :)

I tried the common name of the symbol (and the lesser used one), and it didn't work. (The Unicode character worked fine.)

May be a bug. I entered the same answer for question 14 on the new version that I did for question 5 on the original (and which is fairly obvious), but it's not accepting that (with or without brackets).

Is the number for q19 in the new puzzle different from q7 in the old puzzle?
Comment has been collapsed.
The number is the same, but ITH won't let me add multiple answers for that question so will have to answer with the number inside brackets and without any kind of punctuation.
So it won't be [100,000] but [100000] for example.
Let me know if this helps.

Hi,
This is my first Puzzle, so I do not actually know how to adjust the difficulty of questions and how much hint can help you. Go easy on me and on my English since it is not my main language, and feedback on the puzzle are very appreciated.
