Looking at the occurrences of vowels/consonants in the passages now. For instance, the first image was tweeted with VWL1 with 9 occ. I think the only vowel in that passage that occurs 9 times is 'o' but I need to double-check.

ETA third image, second vowel with 2 occurrences looks like 'u'

Fantastic work, Toasty!

The letter 'u' shows up 6 times in the 3rd image. I would guess that the VWL being referred to in that is 'y', but there are 3 of them. The only letter with frequency 2 is 'k'.
Code:
Whom he left to perish in Roncesvale
Nor can he stint but to weep and wail
Imploring Gor their souls to bless
Till overcome with log distress
He slumbers at last for heaviness
The Franks are aleeping throughout the meads
Nor rest on foot can the weary steeds
They crop the herb as they stretch them prone
Much hath he learned who hath sorrow known.


In the 4th image, I see {c, g, j, v, w, y} having frequency 2.
Code:
That dubs or bad men good or good men bad
At random  To Abjure a loyal friend
Is to cast off ones life the best of boons
Or so I hold it so will time assure thee
For time can prove a just man time alone
But i one short day is a villain known


In the 5th image, {u, y} has frequency 5.
Code:
What can it be
Feeling sideways they encountered another tower
like pillar square and uncompromising as the first
beyond it another and another  The place was all
doors and pillars some connected above by continuous
architraves
A very Temple of the Winds he said
The next pillar was isolated others composed a
trilithon others were prostrate their flanks forming a


In the 6th image, I see 'b' with frequency 9. There appear to be only 3 w's.
Code:
In office
At first assumption of the magisters office seemed to
have brought more loss than gain it had almost devoured his
strength and his personal life had crushed all his habits and
hobbies had left a cool stillness in his heart and in his head
something resembling the giddiness after overexertion but the
period that now followed brought recovery reflection and
habituation it also yielded new observations and experiences


In the 8th image, the letters on the sides of the image that may or may not be included are {a, r, n, h, t}. I would guess that the 't' is included. This would lead me to believe that the proper letter is 'n'.
Code:
ssionately he wished to know nothing abo
est to be dead if there only was a light
if there only was a tiger a devour him if t
n which would numb his senses bring
and no awakening from that was there st


I'm with you on image 11. There appear to be 7 'u' instead of 6
Code:
Or loss may happen to him ere he set
Foot on its soil and there must endure
Whatever when his mother brought him forth
Fate and the unrelenting Sisters spun
For the new born but should he prove to be
One of the immortals who has come from heaven
Then the gods have a different design


For image 12, I see 'r' with frequency 15 and 'n' with frequency 16.
Code:
What greater proofs of truth than these could be
Yet I persist and urge my destiny
At length she found, when my own for returnd
Her jealous lover there whose loss she mournd
Enraged with my suspicion swift as wind
She fled at once from me and all mankind


So, here is my list in order of tweeted images (just like yours)
O
S
Y
C, G, J, V, W, Y
U, Y
B
7
N
E
L
U
R
E
M

For the 4th and 5th images, using the 'c' and 'u', and not using the number 7, I get an anagram for 'nucleus embryo'. I am tweeting @joyansible with this info now.

Man it was late and I didn't have access to my desktop, so it looks like I made a few mistakes. I'll go back and redo mine to compare with yours magnet0.

BTW, if anyone else wants a go, I have been using the character counter here:
http://rainbow.arch.scriptmania.com/tools/word_counter.html
Just make sure all your letters are the same case.

ETA - yep, I see where I was mixing up numbers for several last night. I believe that I have the same results now. Also, a (possibly related) new tweet:

Awesome! It's working! Glad to know I'm not alone. Looks like there's only 2 Characters left to submit... 3rd and 11th, I believe. Oddly enough, the "7" was in the 8th Position. He changed it, but, doesn't matter. We're close... to.. well.. Whatever it is.

...I guess you've already realized that it's not related to Bungie, at least, not "Officially". Here's the Thread I wrote and Have been checking lately.

They tweeted this after people gave them their solutions:

O S ! J U B 7 T E L ! R E M

They also removed the images for 3 and 11

Going with magnet0's solutions I think it's possible 3rd is Y and 11th is U since they were the next-best option. Hard to say though with the images removed. bleh

I saw the start of your other thread last night John. Ah, Marathon...

Honestly though, when I read Ansible and Queen, I immediately thought of Ender's Game, especially with the movie coming out later this year.

Here is my post to JOYANSIBLE on twitter:

And the subsequent processing:

So I started messing around with possible combinations of letters and noticed that the string includes the letters for TUMBLR. Might just be a coincidence, but here's what's left over anyway:

O S ! J 7 E ! E

Any ideas?

Boy when you say it like that, it makes it sound like you don't believe them when they say it really isn't related to them. Again, 1st off - Bungie themselves didn't run ILB - 42E did. And while there is often a bit of "nope, not us, la la la" you can usually pretty obviously tell when a PM team is working on something and fake denying, and when they are honestly telling you *it isn't them*.

If this is Bungie working with 42E again, it wouldn't be for Halo. It would be for their new game, Destiny.

http://destiny.bungie.org/

Edit: That is a fan site, by the way. Didn't realize it until now.

Bungie is indeed it seems working on something for Destiny {thread located HERE} but I honestly don't believe this is connected. Keep Destiny stuff seperate unless proven otherwise {in which case these two threads will be merged or moved to a subforum or something}

First thought when I hear the word "ansible" is Ender's Game. Thoughts?

Oh, also there is an Enders Game movie in production!
