Remembering the Christmas song " The Twelve Days of Christmas " Chartreuse also deduced that the second part of Sister's message [maids a milking] was also part of the code. There were seven of them.


uhhh i know this has already been solved, and correctly, but i just wanted to point out that ...

Haha, glad we finally solved it. I can't claim to being most of the brains behind this one, and I'm pretty dismayed that I didn't see this earlier.

Here goes:

Deagol (Or perhaps someone else, earlier. Props to whoever it was.) pointed out that when you use the code on Walter's "stamp" to decode ...

These are some Vignere facts:

msg: a t g c
-------------
key: a h u y to cipher into a
key: t a n r to cipher into t
key: g n a e to cipher into g
key: c j w a to cipher into c




wait wait wait....in that table a can be decoded into BOTH a and g? how does that work???


EDIT: no...wait a is ...

I suggest you look up these two memebers of the OpAphid Puzzle Dept.:

acidfingers
diastres

They are on chat more than the forums, but they are top notch!

Any of you Facility J people live in Northern California? Wanna trade puzzle services for drop retrieval services?

*laughs* i would love to ...

i know that this has nothing to immediately do with OpAphid, but i do know the caliber of the code crackers that hang out in this part of the forum. there's a doozy of a puzzle that one of the LG15 spinoffs has left us. even though he's not canon, or even part of the canon ARG his puzzles are ...

New Email from Walter:

the part that says we already have the numbers we need to form his last name makes me think that it might not actuallly be a Vigenère cipher. i mean, maybe when he said "You act as if I gave you a ...

haha jackson looks well pissed off in the last one like 'when is this chick going to stop taking pics' :x

lol
*laughs* that's true, i think the camera just caught him at an odd moment though. he was more shy than anything, i can't imagine him actually being pissed off. but yeah, he looks odd. it ...

haha
Yousef was talking about you I think on his myspace


"The other day I saw some people walking around in candy bras"

the "people" would have been me, and a boy that was with me in the candy store who bought one too! he was hilarious. candy bra on a teenage boy=priceless.

Awwww! Thanks for ...

hey guys! instead of making a whole other thread i thought i'd just include my pictures here! i also went to the youtube meet in san fran, and i got to hang out with yousef and jackson all night! there was an after party at a bar that they came to, and i had a lot of fun talking to the both of them ...

Ok, I realize this is very basic for a lot of people here, but it's a stiff learning curve for me.

From a pointer Trainer had given me, I knew the stamp on the telegram was a cipher, but with no experience, I had no idea what kind.

Walter's comment "You act as if I gave you a chiffre ...

Walter updated his myspace profile:

You kids still haven't found my full name? I'm not entirely surprised. You act as if I gave you a chiffre indéchiffrable.


when i googled "chiffre indéchiffrable" i got :

so it looks like Luminous was right ...

ok ok ok. i have no suggestions to offer you all but this: i have been told by a firsthand source that very often we read far too into these puzzles and pick them apart and drive ourselves crazy, when really the answer is a lot more straightforward than we think.


Ask that firsthand source what ...

I tried some anagram servers but all I got was I PEE FAR
