None of the answers so far are correct. For me this process is a good measure of the sort of answers we'll get I think.

Second Hint: You'll only get the URL by looking for it on the page. You have no hope of "working it out" without looking. This is the main reason why I think riddle answer is not really suitable for the actual contest. It is far too obscure and unexpected.

Answers need to be a URL that is part of forum and accessible to everyone. Working through the riddle should provide clues as to what to do or where to go in order to find the answer.

I don't expect this riddle to be solved; not because it is good but because it is specifically crafted to show pitfalls to avoid when making a riddle for the contest. Pitfalls that make the solution finding process less fair. I'll show you how you might answer this sample riddle eventually, which will hopefully make the process much clearer when the real riddles start.
