increasingly complex password. Rule 15 requires you to include a leap year in your password, though not everyone may know what exactly this means. You simply capitalize letters and add unique characters at the start of The Password Game, but you will soon need to consult lunar calendars and research atomic numbers. Rule 15 includes another oddly specific restriction to your password, which is likely already messy by this point. If you're trying to add a leap year to your password in The Password Game, here's what you need to do. Leap years for The Password Game Leap years contain an additional day, Feb. 29. Leap years occur every four years, so to pass Rule 15, you must include any number divisible by four. For example, you could put 4 for 4 A.D. or 2024, as both are leap years. If you have made it this far, you may have already completed Rule 15 without knowing it. In my latest run, I added the number 40 as part of the CAPTCHA inclusion in Rule 10, which doubles as a leap year. Whenever Rule 15 came around, it automatically checked off. You are almost halfway done after beating Rule 15 in The Password Game. Be warned, however, as some of the most confusing and difficult rules are still ahead of you. The Password Game is a game of patience more than anything else, as unless you are already well-versed in algebraic chess notation, you will likely need to look up more information to pass the next several rules.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/leap-year-screenshot.png","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/900848"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1720"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=900848"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/900848\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1478476,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/900848\/revisions\/1478476"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/900916"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=900848"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=900848"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=900848"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=900848"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=900848"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=900848"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=900848"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}

increasingly complex password. Rule 15 requires you to include a leap year in your password, though not everyone may know what exactly this means. You simply capitalize letters and add unique characters at the start of The Password Game, but you will soon need to consult lunar calendars and research atomic numbers. Rule 15 includes another oddly specific restriction to your password, which is likely already messy by this point. If you're trying to add a leap year to your password in The Password Game, here's what you need to do. Leap years for The Password Game Leap years contain an additional day, Feb. 29. Leap years occur every four years, so to pass Rule 15, you must include any number divisible by four. For example, you could put 4 for 4 A.D. or 2024, as both are leap years. If you have made it this far, you may have already completed Rule 15 without knowing it. In my latest run, I added the number 40 as part of the CAPTCHA inclusion in Rule 10, which doubles as a leap year. Whenever Rule 15 came around, it automatically checked off. You are almost halfway done after beating Rule 15 in The Password Game. Be warned, however, as some of the most confusing and difficult rules are still ahead of you. The Password Game is a game of patience more than anything else, as unless you are already well-versed in algebraic chess notation, you will likely need to look up more information to pass the next several rules.","apple_news_notices":[],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/leap-year-screenshot.png","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/900848"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1720"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=900848"}],"version-history":[{"count":7,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/900848\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1478476,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/900848\/revisions\/1478476"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/900916"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=900848"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=900848"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=900848"},{"taxonomy":"invoiceable_action","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/invoiceable_action?post=900848"},{"taxonomy":"internal-label","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/internal-label?post=900848"},{"taxonomy":"article_type","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/article_type?post=900848"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/dotesports.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=900848"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
