i think someone said they'd already done this, but i went thru all the alphabets on omniglot, hoping to find the skull symbols scattered about in various alphabets. no luck. Well, I found 4 matches. either the PM has made up the symbols or maybe we're looking at them wrong. Maybe instead of looking at the symbols as if they are letters forming words in a sentence, maybe they're parts of sigils? or perhaps we should be combining them in some way, or looking at them as something other than substitution letters. cuz frankly, i give up.

I even looked thru the viewer submissions on the omniglot page. no luck.

I've been working on substitutions this morning and hit a road block. Bang Head

I think that either the symbol that looks like an I with a squiggle through it is not a space or this thing is written in a foreign language. I can get 1 word but it is in italian. Any ideas??

i just want to say it's gonna annoy me if we spent all this time trying to solve this puzzle, and the answer is to youtube it and ask for help, and wait for a new NPC to tell us what it means. Mad

I'd rather it be something that was impossible to solve, since we've been working on this for days. and if this is in italian, screw it, i'm done.

i'm gonna call up a friend in houston and have them go kick somebody if the skull is not meant to be solved. that'll put the paranoid dr on edge.

a little bird told me that someone has actually figured out the skull. he wouldn't tell me what it said, but tormented me with the fact that it has been solved.

Evil.
