Cryptos

[Baloo48]

I'm trying to do the substitution... basically guessing... I thought that the first word was most likely

the

and went along from there, but I cannot find a pattern... I know all I've done all evening is ask for help... but can I get a hint as to the pattern of the substitutions?

I think you have the right place to start we need to use the pattern and try to deduce the missing letters from there. I have come up with a few answers I think

9=t 1=h #=e 1=s &=y

Jack - I'm getting a figure of

48

in a question of distance, which it doesn't seem to like. Is that close to your result?

[jack]

I need serious help now. Let me know when you guys get to "Fire at will".

All good, except for 1=s. remember the keywords from the story so far and try to match one to the ciphertext...

[Cryptos]

Jack, that's a temporary ending.

[kuang]

For temporary endings, would it be possible to throw up a holding page named as the correct answer, just saying 'call back later' or something so you know you cracked it?

[jack]

Jack, that's a temporary ending.

I guess I'm stuck here for a bit then. Great game so far Crypto, it's really addicting. Keep up the good work.

[kuang]

Ahh, I was 1 mile out. Bugger.

I think finding the right syntax for 'escape the room' is going to give me a headache, so I'm off to bed. Tata

This is the translation of the very last Brazilian text on Barging In that i got; 'We receive seua confirmation and it will have lorries promptly to receive seua load. When it will arrive?' I've tried finding out what this word 'seua' means but to no avail. Anyone with clues as to its meaning?

Ahhh yay I think I figured it out... thanks so much!

[jack]

When you get to escape the room just type the name of a simple object that can be made out of a few of the items. The item is not complicated to make and it is surely something you have heard of. I'm off to bed too. Talk to everybody later.

Just for the next 2 Stages, what particular things in the game did you guys enjoy most?

[pkticker]

Gee, I dunno... it's been really fun so far, even though I've been made to feel somewhat stupid now and again... I really enjoy the codebreaking.

I'm along the same lines as you, feeling stupid not being to pick one or two of the keywords (especially that one with the 'T' in a big circle at the bottom of the note). I love the logic riddle on 'Logical Deduction', as i absolutely love logic puzzles. Keep bringing it on Cryptos, bring it on Cryptos. For the one on gilded hemipterons, i assume that substitution just means that each of those symbols stand for the same letter of the alphabet throughout, am i correct?
