It might be a bug, lets see.
You need to add for each ghost its score in level 1 + 5 + 8
So to properly deduce, you need to have completed both level 1 and 5. Let's put uber noob aside, as its score is not asked in the level 8 question.
The coins supposed to be collected in lvl 1 are: Ninja=6 ; Inhu=4 ; Croc=5; Poly=5
In level 5, there is only 1 ghost you really need to count, as you should have confirmation for the rest if you completed the level (level name was a clue).
Again in level 8 there is a 'trap', look carefully at which ghosts are there, level name and smalley's text are clues.
If still with what I am saying you are unable to find the good numbers, please just straight tell me how many you counted in each level under Chapter3 development log please.
I appreciate your feedback to make the game better :)
