Hi there Awesome people !!!

I will be reaching my 1K$ contribution and I though it would be nice to get it with an awesome quick giveaway ^^
So here is the Puzzle and here is the treasure

Some wise words, which might help you:
My history teacher used to say, that italic font was used to mark the spot on pirate maps as "X" and the starting point was marked as O.
But she also used to say, that my Math teacher should stop playing around with WolframAlpha !

For Part 2, if anyone is going crazy, there is a button called "copyable plain text". It is a lifesaver. Q3 was blowing my mind, because you can do it in your head easily, but flipping formatting... >.<

Did the "history Lesson", I was worried hearing about the folks annoyed at capitalisation. I somehow got them right on my first try. Also, very embarrassing how many of those I did not have to look up. Granted, most were in my heyday...lol

Don't understand the history lesson, the hints can be taken in too many different ways with the wording. I get what it is trying to point out but it doesn't follow through to complete.

lol, so I worked out q3 (puzzle2) then a hint showed up and sure enough, same result, but we must have different formatting because it has accepted none so far. Q5 I also have right and it wont accept. So I am done.

Yeah, a couple comments up. Use wolfie, and then use the copyable plain text button. Really frustrated me since it was an easy question :)

I'm saddened by the fact that you need to use cheats to have the correct formatting. I'm somewhat offended and I refuse to further waste my time for this

This Quiz suxx....because what the guy really want is not the correct answer for the question, it is actually the correct format of his answer... so for those nabs who still have no idea to solve it: you guys simply have to copy all the piece of shits from WolframAlpha to join his giveaway. I mean actually I found it was very interesting to solve his quiz, because math is and will always be my favorite subject. But since I found out that the real way to solve his quiz, I simply laughed at myself for wasting time to do it... 节操无下限的quiz,哥无语的表示没兴趣继续陪你丫玩儿了~

Yep, Math was, is and will be Awesome in all ways possible, but from my experience more than 70% of average people hate math and are even lazy to think about solutions !
Because I wanted to give the short chance to as many people as possible, I thought this might be a chance for the ones with less mathematical skills.
However I agree that mistake was not adding more right answers and copied them only!

I'm left with 5 letters that I need to arrange. But I just can't get them into the right order. siiiiigh

Edit: So O is the starting point leaving me with the last 4 letters. But how to arrange them? I tried every combination I think.
