Do you mind giving a hint fot this one, because counting doesn't quite do the trick.

It's something you definitely know and already solved here :)
The solution is a word. good luck.

Omg, after you saying it's a word and taking a look at what i had already writen down, it is so obvious, but i feel a little stupid for asking a hint now :)

Thanks for the feedback, i really appreciate it.

Post subject:  I'm stuck

I think I may need some help on this one.

You say the solution is a word, but when I count the number of times that the names are on the list I get a number well over one hundred.

I presume the answer is in this format:
onehunderdandeleven

Is this the right way about going about it, or am I completely down the wrong lines, and the challenge has nothing to do with counting the number of times they are on the list?

Hi ObsidanAge :)
onehunderdandeleven is not the way I expect it. Let's say that yes counting the numbers IS important, and more than hunderd is rigth too, but out of these numbers (ex. 111) there will be 1 letter.

Hope that helped

Post subject:  One letter? :shock:

Thanks for the help Bregi, however I'm not quite sure I understand it to be frank (I'm still rather new to solving these sort of things, and probably haven't picked up on something obvious).

Looking at it logically, surely you must mean there is one number, not one letter... for example 1hundred... Or do you mean like 1l1 or something along those lines?

I have tried about 20 variations of the answer now, so surely there's something I'm not picking up on. :?

Write the numbers down somewhere, like 120 110 etc. (for ex.)
I'm pretty sure you know what that means/could mean, because you've already solved a similar to that one ;)
