I know it would be easier if every number was one letter, but if the creators are basically giving in game hints to the contrary, it has to be two.

I was under the impression that some numbers are 2 letters and some are just 1 letter. I'm just not sure if we add the digits to get 1 letter, or if it's like 27 = A.


Perhaps it could be each pair has three letters! For instance with 27 would be the letter for 2 and the letter for 7 and also the letter for 27. That would make this way harder. *mindblown*

That would depend on every third letter fitting nicely into a pattern set by the first two letters...and the same coincidence would have to repeat multiple times. Not sure if you were sarcastic with the mindblown, but that seems way too fortuitous to convey a clear message.

Ah didn't consider that, and it honestly seemed like a good idea at the time.

 		I'm trying [1 = A, 27 = A], with some numbers being two letters, and looking for names. If one of the 72s is "T", one of the 79s is "GI", and 13 is "M", then we can get "Tim"; but that would requier unscrambling. I haven't found anything else yet.

I tried adding the sets of #'s we were given and then matching them to their corresponding letter, I got this:
16 12 11 9 9m 9m 6

k l m d l i p
---------------------
14 11 12m 14 6 11
m k l m f k
16 16 11 12m 12 12m
p p k l l l
So gibberish, basically. Now we know one thing it isn't.


Don't be so quick to dismiss it. It is still in line with the hints we've been given so far. Jay even mentions that some of the number pairs may even be the same letter.

Here's what I've got so far with just the first set of numbers:

79 75 83 27 72 72 24
16 12 11 9 9 9 6

A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26

16 12 11 9 9 9 6
p l k i i i f


83 75 68 13 83 27 79
11 12 14 4 11 9 16


11 12 14 4 11 9 16

ff as well.

But i'm not sure of anything anymore. Why is he updating so much by the way? It would be frustrating to solve this and find "EYESSEEYOU".


Seriously, the decoded message better be worth it and not like, "Watching you. Do this thing. That guy. Salt is salty"

Kindkip. So he's nicknamed his 3rd-gen water-type starter Pokemon.

It all makes sense, now.

 		How can you be so sure the 9 most frequent letters are the ones used on the code. : (

I don't think we can, it's just a guess.

...preeeetty sure no part of the answer is a thoroughly-misspelled version of a nonsensical phrase.

additionally, we don't seem particularly likely to make anything purely out of the 9 most frequently used letters, especially since it ignores the hint Jay gave about different letters pertaining to the same number. big dead-end vibe there. hate to be a downer, but I'd rather not see another hundred posts about different arrangements of A E H I N O R S T.

 		How about this:

Code:

        13      24      27      57      68      72      75      79      83
13                      4
24
27                                              6
57                                      11                              13
68                                                                      3
72
75              12                                      2
79              7                       8                               9
83                              10              5               1


Each number in the table is a number of pair. Do you think letters could be filled in the table? I tried several ways to do that, nothing so far...

I had a fealing that it wouldn't be of any help, but thought I might as well.

Also, has anybody tried leters that could be flipped and make the same or a different letter? Like A, X, V, W, any of those?

All I'm doing now is refreshing Twitter every 30 seconds a twiddleing my thumbs....
