[Trailhead] Odd E-mail.

And I thought all the IMs were bad, I got this today through e-mail.

Holy shnikes! Another one??? Laughing Well, not sure about this, but in the lower left hand corner of the white area in that image, I think it says "The rice will set you free."

You should post some kind of challenge to PMs to be original about their launches. Threaten them or something, because this is starting to get stupid. It was kind of funny at first, but now it's just lame.

As far as I can tell, the first line isn't ROT and it's not a Vignere. I tried as many different keywords as I could think of. I could be completely stupid though.

Edit: I think I've come up with an idea to discourage launching games with you, hkdl. It is quite simple actually. Don't post your interactions. I think that would be something that would encourage originality or something. If the PMs know you're not going to post about their games, they may try something new.

Was idly looking at the image there is a little phrase in each of the corners.

Justice often tastes of fried dough
Justice often tastes of donkeys
Justice often tastes of pumpernikel
Justice often tastes of cabbage

Heh heh...

GoDaddy lists a TON of sites that are "coming soon" and frankly, I don't believe them.

[song] ooooooh, one of these things is not like the other, not like the other, not like the other... [/song]
I'm sorry.
Tastes of donkeys?
Bye bye, appetite.
Still, it may not be a good idea to play this game while hungry.

Since I don't have enough time. Someone take the letters, and add the number under them to it.

Example:

ABC
210

which makes CCC....get it?

using a=0 b=1... z=25 I get:

h g s j f h d d b v n d r y t i u s p o g m f
+ 1 9 7 9 6 4 0 2 4 7 6 3 2 8 7 5 3 1 4 5 3 5 7 7 6

8 15 25 18 11 11 3 5 6 28 19 6 19 32 26 13 23 19 19 19 9 17 12

which is then:

i p z s l l d f g d t g t g a n x t t t j r m h g

trying ROT/VEN now
will also try a=1 ... z=26
[EDIT] yeilds:
j q a t m m e g h e u h u h b o y u u u k s n h g
which supplies enough anagrams to make your eyes bleed

anyone else already try this before I go pulling my hair out?

garbage in = garbage out

Other things I've tried:

Googling:
Justice often tastes of ass
Justice often tastes of asses
Justice often tastes of doughnuts
blah blah blah

figuring out all of the letters that are not in cabbage, donkeys etc and in the original mess yields: ekeklcae which if you then remove the repeats is Aleck

garbage in = garbage out

yep reached the bottom of THIS bottle hehehe Very Happy

good night all

Any suggestions on a name for this one? Otherwise I'm tempted to tag it Lemon Taco. Very Happy
