Here's what I'm trying to say (And I could totally be wrong, because the decoder thing was very complicated) --

I think that when we were using the decoder ring, there was a particular "Key" to each puzzle tht had to be solved in order to decode the message. Each key was different and it required some sleuthing to figure it out.

So if you were using the decoder ring to encrypt a message, you would have to make a key. We could use one of Tachy's key's, but maybe you would have to find a way to let him know which key you were using? Otherwise he wouldn't be able to decode the message!

Does that make any sense? Sometimes I'm not good at explaining what I'm thinking. Embarassed

I suppose the most recent one Tach used would be a good place to start.

Also, the idea of asking him a "key" related question might yield some results.

Or you could simply preface the message with the key in clear language.

Hmm, sounds good. I didn't make a decoder ring tho. So we need to bug someone who made one to try. Or maybe I'll watch Tilt's video and make one now. I am pretty bored.

But I think it's worth trying!

Okay, the decoder rings are way complicated and I don't completely understand them. But could the key you're looking for be the 'any' key?

Thanks Panda! I really am quite thick-headed sometimes. You obviously were explaining that quite well! Just smack me next time I am such a fool!

Okay, I'm sorry.
I've tried reading up on the rings and I just don't get them. Embarassed

For the sake of simply testing my theory, I duplicated the hex message from "A Small Test" and sent it to Brother via gemmers19's YT account. I'll post any response I get.

wish me luck! i made a painfully simple code and put a clue to the key in the subject line, coding the quote "the little hand says it's time to rock".

well, guess i should reword that.

the code is painfully simple... if you know the language.

Wink

think "domo arrigatto, robotto-san." followed by the kanji for "100331" is enough of a hint? can i hear a w00t w00t from those who hated Tachy's and BillehBob's codes?? Wink

Pretty simple. (Feel free to read for a cheat, Brother!)

In the basic form of Japanese writing (hirigana), I wrote the quote in the Japanese equivilant. lemme spell it out in english lettering...

teh reetah hando sezu eetsu tamu to rokku.

Wink

yeah, when they smush english words to fit their language, it's like playing "mad gab"!!

but i figured that, seeing as how i typed it in hirigana characters, the subject line should tell them my key.

I'm sorry if this has been repeated or is too obvious... but has anyone tried just emailing him the actual decoder ring for him to use?

First:

Using the decoder ring, you have to let your reciever know where to start the code. As in "Set ring to R4" etc. That way, the reciever knows what to line up. Just sending the code, or sending the ring in this case, will be of little help.

Second:

I don't think that brother has been sending us any new hints or clues. I think that we are just so bored from not having a new puzzle that we will try to anylyze ANYTIHNG to keep our wits sharp.

HOPEFULLY they will throw us a bone soon (and hopefully it is one of Gemma's to confirm she is gone...LOL)
