ok ignore what I said above. I worked out number 5 to 17, yet it wont accept what I have despite me knowing it is correct as it works & have tried a couple of formats to get it to 17. Anyone fancy emailing me with the answer that this page wants?

okies

don't take it too literally - just read it again slowly and see what it is ASKING you to do, NOT what your assuming MUST be done.

Re 1.12: A bit of a hint required for the 'swiss banker' question. Whilst trying to remain slightly cryptic, are we talking one, two or more letters for this answer?

I've tried every damn combination for the colour one...

1. counted the visual colours
2. counted the appearances of the words
3. combined both

...and still don't get the right solution

Any little hint please?

Pj

with this one I must admit to cheating a bit
I took the number of times the word yellow, green and purple appeared and created the formula x + yellow - green x purples.
Then I took a best guess at the actual number of colours on screen screen to make that x.
Then I increased the x number.
By luck I hit the right answer.
hint: x < 50 but >20
