      An odd request, but your wish is my command - just worked it out for you. See the attachment.

        Hmm, let's see. Level 32. No googling, no code breaking (and I thought I could roll those numbers around a bit to make letters), just lateral thinking about what's in the message. Thre's a lab, a parking garage, and the location IS "below", which by all rights should refer to the sudoku puzzle. The lab belongs to the colleague (or he works there). Do we know his name? Not Sims, who isthe go-between, no? Or have I got it mixed up again. This stuff is roiling about in my brain............

          I'm glad that you past this level as everybody except me. But i can google no more. All i have about the "Breaking the fences down" leads me to August Wilson. I can't see his photo anymore. I even read his biography. Try every date i found starting from the dates of his birth and death finishing the dates of his plays. I found that this phrase is a baseball slang but i know nothing about this game.
          NOTHING WORKS. What i'm overthinking? You say google that was the thing i did for two days hoping that i miss something.
          I'm realy lost...

            I wonder does 6 stars means 6 letters in a word.

            • Natural Numbers

              Hey, i've been playing this game for a while and you've all helped me out quite a bit, but i'm currently stuck on Natural Numbers, i've tried using changing the 2's, 3's and so on for their binary representations but to no avail, could someone please give me a little hint?

              • Sounds to me like you're on the right track. If you end up with a list of bytes, you then need to work out what those bytes might represent in computer terms to get the final message.

                  I PMed you, but it looks like youo got it already. Kuang didn't need the sudoku, but Cryptos says we can dosomething to convert the 3 numbers to letters. Simple substitutino (1=A) doesn't seem to help, and I tried imagining thast a 5 was an S, but nothing works for me, so far. Good luck.

                    • Level 32. The sudoku numbers might be imagined to be the letters S,I,M -- Edward Sim. Is the answer a 3-letter.url? This is beginning to feel like the Unwelcome Visit level, with its many possibilities.

                        Just noticed your post. I actually worked the Natural Numbers out as a simple substitution. A bother, but using a spreadsheet it was just a matter of being very careful.

                        • I solved this the same way kuang did, and even knowing the answer I still can't see the meaning of the sudoku numbers.

                            Those of us with less agile minds could really use a nudge. Thanks.

                            • Good old fashioned detective work. Where you are going is a real place, and it is easy to narrow down where it is when you look at all the facts that are given.
