For detectives only: part 2
I know Djive's riddle is still not uncovered but this one you will like.
This is me, Milena, and I created this account with only one purpose: to let you play detectives again and discover my password.
Rules of the game:
1. No cheating
2. No passcrackers allowed
3. You can ask up to 5 questions altogether and I will answer with yes/no only
4. If you think you have guessed right, try to log in. If you successfully do, post on this thread as Electra that you are the winner.
5. Don't use this profile as a spam tool. If the conditions are violated ad the pass-changed, I will ask Val to delete the account on the spot.
6. Once the game is over, I will ask Val to delete this account.
Good luck!
P.S.I'd beg for a QP for the winner. :-)

As password length can be maximum 25, at least I can try to guess it if I know the lenght of it, so here are my questions:
1. Is length of the password divisible by 2 with remainder equals to zero?
2. Is length of the password divisible by 4 with remainder equals to zero?
3. Is length of the password divisible by 8 with remainder equals to zero?
4. Is length of the password divisible by 16 with remainder equals to zero?
5. Is length of the password divisible by 32 with remainder equals to zero?
this gives us the 5 bits of the lenght of the password, huh..
so after Electra/Milena answers to this - someone else may continue...

My Questions:
OK. I'll try my luck with this....
1. Has it got to do with Heroes. etc. HC, H1,2,3,H4.
2. Can it be worked out on a calculator?
3. Is it in any way linked to your name?
4. Does it have between 1 and 12 letters?
5. Does it have to do with where you live and your country?
Well, If we were allowed a sixth question, it would be
"What is it?"

Guys...
as we say here, you're looking for a calf under the bull.
Being at most 25 chars- this is what the title says but try to make a profile with 24 chars as a password and we will talk again.

Milena, don't know about the calf under the what...
but you are not answering our questions.
You see - if password is 25 symbols max, and all uppercase and lowercase + space + digits can be used - then there is about (26+26+1+10)^25 possible ways - it's quite long you know.
So better make more normal stuff for detectives, you know 
And this is not an hollywood movie where the main hero always knows the script and knows what to do!

You're getting on my nerves. I told you, the limit is MUCH less than 25, it's EIGHT. Try it out if you don't trust it. It doesn't take cases either.
Try to guess if it's a word, does it mean ath, are there digits or special signs... or maybe I should get that QP for myself for making a fool out of myself.

Well Milena/Electra...
Guessing a random word with 5 questions is impossible, so assuming you want us to have a reasonable chance the password must be closely connected to a person called Electra or a product called Electra.
There are above all two things that come to mind and that is the person called Carmen Electra, and the second is Electra as written by Sophokles and Euripidis.
If you've used an association to a third Electra then you've made this quiz extremely difficult considering that you allow us only 5 questions.
1. Is the password the name of a person/animal?
2. Is the password the name of a place associated with Electra?
3. Is the password a noun?
4. Is Electra referring to the Electra in Literature by Sophokles and/or Euripidis.
I'm going to wait with the fifth question till I get some answers on the ones I've listed.

Well...
a free clue. Lith gave me the idea of Electra, it was his suggestion.
Free clues: it's a word and it means sth. It's sth that you have, Djive, a lot of it and Shae has it too.
If this is not a clue, it's a spoiler then.

I don`t know, but isn`t it "QP".
I mean the password is quality point, quality points or QP.
Am I right?

It was close
but not close enough. :-P
Since Lith solved the riddle first and if we all agree the game is over, I will ask Lith to say the password.
I'd be glad if he gets a QP for it. He really deserved it.
