'The Password Game'

[Noxia]

Just LOL if your actual password isn't password1234, the 4 of course being the vital missing piece in the clue which hackers don't even realise you've added because, no this is serious I read it on a "you won't believe how hackers miss this" thing on the interwebs, and they sent me a text message (to my phone!) and all I had to do was log in and reset it and then a nice man called me (on my phone!) and he was down in the dumps because his friend, no this is legit and I was worried, his friend or was it his mum or dad?, but someone needed some help, well some money actually as it turns out, so I sent him a thousand dollars to get through the tsunami which had engulfed his village, and boy do I hope they all make it out okay so that you know, one they're all okay haha but also two because I don't have thousand dollars anymore and uh ... hmm. Thanks for reading.

e: noobs.

Mags, you need a password manager and some strong medication fella. Just saying.

Edit: I'm kidding you don’t need the password manager.

Can't get past rule 9 - it doesn't recognise a perfectly valid combination of Roman numerals :s even Googling the answer for it isn't accepted.

EDIT: Finally after the 3rd time of re-entering it accepted them but I CBA with the Wordle bit so stopped there.

What I find funny is there are a lot of sites which make you jump through hoops with entering a password but the actual back end in a surprisingly frequent number of cases stores the password using a hash which means there are dozens of possible matches and defeats the purpose of a longer more complex password.

The sites which have a stupidly low maximum length but don't bother telling you are worse.

Run into that issue a few times using 1Password to generate a 24 character password that meets all of the complexity requirements, but still isn't accepted,

E.g.

"nzrfMrYnT@*gwYiC49WJ" is no good

"P@ssword1!" is fine

Is there a pay to win version of this game?
