I've been requested to hint, but the ones above seem quite reasonable. In an attempt to be as obscure as ever, I'll offer this piece though:

Does it have anything to do with the Brothers Grimm?

I took a shot in the dark, based on the number of letters and Von's clue... It is *not* Brothers Grimm. Confused

I've tried counting letters and words and cannot get any sense.

I meant the 'Brothers Grimm' isn't the answer... It's cool that they have something to do with it, though. I think I've found the method (the first 8 letters are too good to be coincidendal), but the rest of the list I'm looking at, seems to be out of order... ? So close... Confused

Finally! I would have got this a little quicker if I had been working in English instead of German. Fortunately I told my colleague what I was doing and she did the same in English and got the answer.

ARRRGH! ARRRGH! ARRRGH! ARRRGH! ARRRGH! Cursing

I have finally worked this out, solved the code, and it turns out to be THE FIRST FECKING THING I THOUGHT OF. I didnt put that in the solve box (never a good idea to assume) because I thought I was looking for a 13-letter word.

ARRRGH! Now I'm locked til tomorrow. *swears profusely*

A very annoyed Dom.

domroberts, I know how you feel. I've had the answer since this morning but can't put it in for another hour or so because I wasted all my attempts yesterday.

And while I'm here, might as well add a hint to the growing list of them...
