View Full Version : Help me crack this code!!! No prank! Promise!
swedeace 11-11-2005, 01:10 PM Okay, I am NOT good with puzzles/riddles, but I was wondering if anyone who IS good at riddles/puzzles can help me, please? It's to enter a forum that will officially open on the 25th. I feel so behind because others are already entering/registering.
Soooo... if anyone is good at Cipher wheels who can take a look and help me "hint" further, can you PLEASE PM me?? I will send you the puzzle/riddle. For now, here's the URL:

Thanks!!

:lol: Sorry about the last video... ;) Nah... I'm serious about this one.... :wave: No joke. Promise.
MsOrange 11-11-2005, 02:06 PM :lol: i figured you were serious... but i looked, i have absolutley no idea!!
swedeace 11-11-2005, 03:34 PM Thanks for trying, MsOrange. :)
Anyone else know how to read the code?

is it in Swedish?
swedeace 11-13-2005, 02:04 PM is it in Swedish?
No, that's the thing. It's supposed to be cryptic coding to try and translate to read what the question is asking.
Here's a website teaching how to translate, but I'm STILL lost. :mad:

I was able to get into the forum on Friday thanks to a fan (although, it was considered cheating), but I'd still like to know how to navigate through the codes and interpret them. Can anyone who's code-smart please explain it to me in Lamen's term? I need a "Cryptic Code for Dummies" book. I am just not seeing it. :( I just know there are code-smart people here.
Anyone???? I'll give you a cookie!! ;)

well, that page explains the whole thing, especially the image of the cipher code:

if you relate that to the images on your first page, you can see the resemblance:

so, assuming they are creating the cipher alphabetically, you replace the symbols in the chart with letters:

swedeace 11-13-2005, 09:30 PM Thanks, robyrob! I just still do not understand "how" to read the cipher alphabet from the cipher code. For instance, that first one looks like an "L" with a dot on the upper right hand corner. Okay. So then when I compare that to the code, I don't know which one to follow. I feel quite stupid..... :mad: :rolleyes:

well, the first one that looks like an L with a dot would correspond to the second pic, the one with the chinese symbols - if you compare it to the cipher diagrams from the other site, it would ba a "P" and the second symbol (the ]) would be a "D"
the problem is you dont know what letters to put with the cipher, if you go by the order of the pics in alphabetical order, it would be L D A W U I S B L ... so I dont think that's the answer
