moderators should edit most of the hints given on this page, it is way too easy like that, although a very funny challenge!

didn't put any sort of glasses or changed monitor settings, just read through half the lorem ipsum b/s and then got tired, scrolled to the end of the image and found it by accident..

This would have been pretty harder if you didn't put it at the edge of the image

why does it redirects me to the "challenges" thread of the challenge if I already solved it? It happens only with some challenges... It should redirect me to the challenges solved section, so that I can discuss the way I solved it, or else i'll end up posting on the unsolved and give away ...

the guy with wolfram|alpha solution won gold, so I guess silver goes to me:

http://primes.utm.edu/nthprime/index.php#nth
The 49,999,951st prime is 982,450,649
using that, I built a program using php and gmp_php library for the "gmp_nextprime" function, and summed up to 5000000th element

webaim also did the trick for me. Having solved the quest glowing referral helped me out on this one, since I didn't know before how to spoof header content

for me, when I solve it by myself, value=1, and when I have to resort to forum, value=0.5.. shame on me, I always look page source when I start to get mind-boggled, will never forget to check it again

alternatively you can build a header without having to resort to a browser extension (I did it in PHP)
