puzzlepirates.com "sage" sea is free
 this last site is not reviewed by yours truly -
"Ok, there's a brainiac written uber web puzzle going on now written by the ivy league types. Very huge. Very hard. Very fun. 
There are nearly 400 puzzles.

Log in: Manic Sages / mcesg 

So far the puzzles have required many different skills: building 3D paper models, TV show ID, cryptograms, mazes, etc.   
Most of the puzzles are muli level, and there are meta puzzles on top of that. 
Not for the faint of heart. The pace is brutal and we don't stop to explain.  Welcome!"

enjoy!,
