Break the Code Started by: MiaChang on Jul 10, '08 21:07
A stranger approaches Mia and hands her a note. The note says to go to a warehouse and to find out an encrypted message.

Why not she said and gets to the warehouse.

When enters the warehouse she sees a machine with headphones. She puts on the headphones and hears gimberish.


The message is heard


_......_......._ _ _ _ _ _.._._ _..._._........_...._._ _ _._._....._ _ _ _..._ _...._ _ _ _._.._ _._....._ _._ _.........


_....._ _ _ _ _ _.._. _ _..........._.._..._..._.._._.._ _._......._._.._.._ _ _...._..._.._


_._._ _ _ _ _._...._ _._._._ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _._.._._ _ _._ _._ _._....._ _..._.._.._..._.._._ _ _ _ _.._

Not sure what that meant, she looks for someone who does.

Well I was a morse code intellegance officer in the Army back during the big one.


I believe it says..

War is destined by hate, greed, and guilty pleasures.



I could be wrong but...aye!

She pauses


I am sorry but that is not correct.

A clue was given on how to break the code.
Report Post Tip
The answer, if taken literally, is: gimberish
Report Post Tip
Oh you poor misinformed fools. "Gimberish" is an old mafioso word meaning "gibberish". In the context of the dots and dashes the message thus clearly reads:


All this has happened before and it will happen again. The game is set to provoke war. Attacking is always an option and defenses cannot be counted on. Thus a first strike against any rising threat is the dominant strategy. Trust and alliances can last only so long as the cost of attacking outweighs the benefits. But as more players enter the game, the pressure for crews to expand rises. As rival crews grow in number, the threat of being attacked increases, and the chances of a minor conflict expanding into all out war rise exponentially.


So the answer to the age old question, "Can't we all just get along?" is a resounding "Not likely"

Hmmmm....Its a toughie. Normally there are breaks or pauses in between the word segments. Any clue where the breaks are?

Clue #2


The message with breaks.


_......_..\ .....\ _ _ _ _ _ _.._._ _\ ..._._........_..\ .._._ _ _._.\ _.....\ _ _ _ _..\ ._ _...._ _ _\ _._.._ _.\ _...._..._ _._\ _.........\_.....\ _ _ _ _ _ _.._. _ _\ .....\ ......_.._..._.\ .._.\ ._\ .._ _._......._._.._.. _ _ _...._..\ _._._ _ _ _ _.\ _...._ _._._._\ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _._.._._ _ _._ _\ ._ _._..\ ..\ ._ _..._..._..\ _.._..._..\ _._ _ _ _ _.._\


The breaks are inserted to separate the words.


Next clue tomorrow unless someone knows there dits and dahs.

Bunsen stands there with his hand under chin, staring intensely at the encrypted note



"I do believe it is the missing link into the theory that apples can be made into petroleum. Either that or it's a 'I O U' letter from Beaker."

Bunsen giggles slightly

Did we just give up, or is there more to come?
Report Post Tip
We are still waiting for someone to break the code. There are two clues solving it already.
Report Post Tip
Are there any numbers in the code?
Report Post Tip
Ive got it about half way done so dont give it away yet
Report Post Tip
TheSpacePope, I too am close to a solution, I am but two words away. Good luck with your endeavours.

It says...

Revan is king, obey his every word.


Next one please.

I must admit defeat, I cannot decipher a single word which describes where to find more information. Without that, I must say my efforts have been in vein.


Has anybody else managed to decipher the eighteenth word?
Report Post Tip
I'm getting closer. I am curious, however, Mia said there would be another clue. Now, what makes me even more curious are if our efforts to decipher this code for her will be rewarded. I'd hate to spend my time and energy into something that is only for a pat on the back. That's just not good business.
Report Post Tip
I feel so very silly, please excuse my last outburst. But I will say that you should keep to the heart is to continue to allow us to help you decipher this message. Don't rip it up or burn it or anything.
Report Post Tip
The code has the information and if you decipher it, you can unlock the treasure.


More to Come!

Rubiki walks into the street corner from the darkness whence he came. He hands Mia Chang a piece of scrap paper, with many scribbles and scratches all over it. Obviously this paper was used a lot. He hands it to her, nods, and walks away. At the bottom of the paper is a few sentences circles seemingly a hundred times


There is money stashed for the one who can break this. The money is hidden in a undisclosed. Come back tomorrow and I will tell you.

Well Mia,


I\'m one word away but I fear I shall never work it out. Blob6 did all the work and was killed before he could make out the last word, I do not have the cognitive abilities of blob6 and so, I am opening this up to everybody in the streets.


Please find the missing word and help Mia to find the money.

Good luck one and all, the missing word begins with an E, U or I, and ends with an L, D, I or E, those were the last notes I was able to find of blob6.
