Received the same email but I've not been followed on Twitter.

What was the puzzle you received?

EDIT:

Her tweet: "ThE woRld is Too much wITH uS; latE and sooN..."

Is a poem by William Wordsworth

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_World_Is_Too_Much_with_Us

CAPS letters don't appear to mean anything: ERTITHSEN could be a cypher, not ROT. Haven't checked the usual suspects yet.

Followed and received email as well. Haven't had much chance to look into the cipher text yet.

Checked my twitter but was not followed, but I did get the email recently too.

Can't say I'll be able to follow with all the other stuff i'm doing, but I guess I'll see where this leads.

ERTITHSEN is anagram of: thirteens

Not sure how this helps but I'll pass it on to Zea.

Well this looks interesting...

What if the leading "T" is supposed to be included? It is capitalized. But I haven't had any luck deciphering "TERTITHSEN" either. I'd say we are definitely looking for a keyed cipher, since she gives us a key to use, but I've tried all the usual suspects...

The first anagram to come up when I passed it through the site I usually use was "Nether Tits," if that helps Razz

My thoughts on the cypher:

thirteens, as someone suggested, but it seems coincidental
(definitely not nether tits)
I noticed it makes the words TEETH and SIREN, but I suspect these are coincidental as well
I got enter this (and subsequently enter shit), sin tether, teen shirt, nothing interesting

Then I went to a word descrambler and discovered these two interesting ones: Tenth Rise and Tenth Sire. No idea what it could mean.

Also how did everyone receive emails? I'm not terribly new here, I just lurk rather than participate and decided to try and help for once.

I have my email up on the site, I'm pretty sure its just chance bro.

Tenth Rise and Tenth Sire is interesting
also

tee hee 'enter shit' XP
Has anyone replied to the email?

Edit: Looked up 'Tenth kings' of things... nothing that really stood out to me.

Oh, thanks Adm, least I know where the code come from now.

PBS, well I looked it up, found the public broadcasting service right away (obviously) it caught my eye because she mentioned her 'kids' and most of the links were about kids shows (my brain works in weird ways.)

anyway I don't think that's what it is, have we worked out what PBS is? Is it some kind of decoder, trying to think of the different kinds there are. The first thing I thought when i saw PBS was 'peanut butter sandwich' hee hee!

Anyway ganna try some times and watch the blog, will report back if anything comes about.

Edit: If working with the 'Thirteen' 'Have sight of Proteus rising from the sea;' is the thirteenth line of that poem. Probably not important but I thought I would mention it.

Edit02: Also another thing I noticed is she refers to someone named 'K' and the name she is going by is Zea Bea, kinda made me think of ZB when I sounded it out.

I don't THINK I have been followed on twitter but I did get the email. Someone wanted me playing in this one. Would be bad form to not join in. Guess I'm riding with you guys on this mystery. Smile

Good to get my hat back in the ring. Give me a bit to catch up and I will be om the same page and ready to help.
