This one annoyed me so here's a hint to what I was doing "wrong".

I am stuck at #13. I tried using 6 & 9 for G ...but it does not work. I am sure I have all 4 answers (1) G...(2)B* (3)B* (4)L*, but it seems it is not accepting.
Did you put them upside down?

Yes I did that too. if the answer is 1069 ..i tried entering 1069 and 9601 ...it does not pass. Am I missing something?
Did you think of the plural ?
did you solve it yet ?
Similarly beware of using the wrong digit for "L".

Jeez finally got through after about 20 tries... HINT: Try plurals... And the fourth is a bit unfair cuz it's not exclusively a geeks childhood toy...
Same. It's really tough. I think the 3rd one is all that I'm missing, and I have no ideas for it.
I'm pretty sure I have the third one, but not two or four.
And I'm sure I nailed first three but have no clue about the fourth. tried characters and numbers. Not sure if numbers should be attempted forward or reverse.
All four answers are just numbers.
