I've tried. It just kicked me out for giving a wrong answer, but I;ll go back and have another go.

well, I'm stuck on level four and can't be bothered with it. I don't have the required patience to keep going back in when I put a wrong answer in and it kicks me out!

what you got so far?

it sounds to me like the first four notes come from the left and are a's then the next two are e'a and come from the right...

Yes, just what I thought. But I don't know what to do with that. Also, I wondered if it was something to do with telephones but I don't know what. :?

I don't really do these any more. Mostly because I object to the linear path.
How irritated with Puzzlebrains would you get if you could only get one puzzle at a time, and if you got stuck on one, that was it?
Never put off till tomorrow what you can do the day after tomorrow.
All of my puzzles are simple and obvious. For certain values of "simple" and "obvious".

It always amazes me that Scurra can NOT get annoyed when he can't solve a puzzle. As he knows to his cost (battered eardrums) that kind of thing drives me demented.

OK Clvrlad, I give up. Any clues for level 6?? Pretty please?

I couldn't even get started at first. Then I got stuck on level 3 and gave up. I have other things to get stuck on now anyway. :D

I gave up at level 11, as I got fed up with having to go back to the beginning each time you made a small mistake. And also the answers were much too obscure (and American!) But it was fun to start with - and quite clever.
Hint for level 6 -take note of where the curser is when it changes and think if that might be significant in relation to the other words.
