about onewingedangel's riddle

since onewingedangel is not here now, maybe I can offer some help with his riddle.
I have to admit I have never posted a spoiler before, so I hope I am doing this right:

the orange part of the morse code is, obviously, encrypted.
this is a simple substitution cypher. look for something in the riddle that might tell you how to substitute

let me know if you want more help.

[onewingedangel3]

exactly, to understand the last bit of morse you have to...HUGE SPOILER! IF YOU WANT TO DO IT YOURSELF, DO NOT CLICK!!!

uh-oh! What was the title of the poem again? I forgot!

[lab rat]

off topic

so, while we are waiting: can anyone recommend another good riddle for me?
I'm looking for something interesting (kind of like this one) - not the usual brighten-the-picture staff.

thanks.

The Antiriddle is pretty awesome.

[Jase]

[onewingedangel3]

Hmmm....Maybe I should make my own riddle.
I wish I knew how though.

im stuck on level 14 (money troubles) can anyone pm me any hints please
thanx

[kuang]

Mimtaz: This solution is one of those where there isn't any decoding to do, just a bit of lateral thinking. Read the note, understand what the writer is saying, look at what he's just done, and then think of how you can use the note to work out where he's going to go next. You're looking for the exact name of the building itself, and there's one huge clue to tell you where that might be. Think back to the communications you're received in earlier levels, and put two and two together

thanx kuang but im still none the wiser

ive been back and forth and can not find the place

[kuang]

You need to consider the following:

1. What has just happened at that location?
2. What does the person who did it say he intends to do next?
3. Who is he going to do it to?
4. Have you seen that person's name before in any form? (hint: look back over the previous couple of levels)
5. What place is linked with that person? That's where you need to be.

You can solve the whole thing without even having to look anything up on the net (although you may need to find out what type of place the destination is if you haven't already heard of it).
