How do you do puzzles #1 and #2:?:

For #1, there are several pieces, but they are out of order. Try reorganizing your thoughts. For #2, the three clues describe views of the same thing. What does it look like from the fourth view?

A little more help, please?

All right, most of the early puzzles are fairly mundane and easy. They could hardly be called puzzles.
#2 is an exception.
So, start with the definite. Find the end of all web pages. No matter what, a web page will end with this. Then, Google/Wikipedia "private first class in the US marine corps" or something to that degree. They look similar, don't they?
From this point you'll probably get what the last direction is, but if not, don't fret. Think about it. What is less? Don't think philosophically. Just think about what represents "less."
This might be a bit spoilerish, but it is level two after all.

Maybe for you. ;)

I keep thinking in terms of "lowest" and "bottom," but they don't work.

Well, of course it's different for everybody, I'm just going by the difficulty ratings here. And I said "most." I would NEVER call #9 easy!

How about just "last"? By the way, it's NOT a word. In fact, it isn't even a letter (or series of letters). Might've given too much away there.

Heh, I got it, thanks. I would have NEVER of thought of that, as sad as it may seem. :lol:
