booba!

I was just about to quit - but I see now that I'm actually on the right track!! Way behind you - but used warpoet for the key and had the my figured out and then a little jibberish. Now I'm gonna skip to the part where you left off.

By the time I post this you'll probably already have it solved but....I'm gonna try to finish it on my own anyhow.

Thanks for posting that!

Whoo! I'm just going to cheer from the sidelines, because this is a bit heavy for my first puzzle, and I have work today and tomorrow, and by Saturday, you guys'll probably have it figured out. >.>

So, I was actually on the right track. I had figured that warpoet was the keyword, but hadn't gotten everything broken down correctly yet.

Thanks for the leg-up r.m.

I can't figure what I'm entering wrong. For instance for mergx - the closest I can get is mexzgx using 15 7 2 6 19 5 - which gets me lt yu hv. This happened to me all the way through with partial words.

Did you translate J to I when you deciphered?

So much for finishing it on my own. Razz

Oh well, thanks GuestUser17 and booba. Maybe my brain cells will come in handy later.

Glad to hear you guessed when it was close. That makes me feel a little better. I did do the reverse encoding of the correct translation just to compare. For and the encoding resulted in rm bz. The closest I could get to this with the numbers was rm zu, which got me anyz. So it's not an exact science - at least not when I do it.

Also - I'm wondering if this is connected to Resident Evil since we have the Xbox icon at Trilon and the evil pharmaceutical company thing going on.

I hope it's not connected to X-Box stuff. I don't own one...
