A Coded Challenge

Mon Nov 16, 2009, 9:19 PM
I have randomly decided to create a coded clue for my players for the D&D game I'll be starting this Friday. Just something for fun, you know? They will be fine without it, but a little hint here and there can go a long way (and make the players feel really smart). Plus, should they solve the clue, I think I'll award them all 1,000 XP or something along those lines, just for the fun of it.

Heck, if anyone here solves it, maybe I can draw you something.

And so, the coded message:

3061422545544665493348575130314543005142 3007465648975291308531105015501731693290 40684090

And because I'm not entirely cruel, here are some hints to solving it:
  1. The message is four words long. The shortest word is three letters long.

  2. The letter "e" only occurs once. Letters that appear more than once are represented by different numbers.

  3. "B" could be represented as 4011, 94101, or even 84239, among other combinations.

  4. The "code-book" can be found in Wal-Mart or online.

  5. Formatting makes the number string look a little odd. I removed all spaces and punctuation when I coded this. Any spaces or breaks in the string of numbers is purely because of the journal format.


Good luck! ^_^

You're welcome. I hadn't thought of using PS, so the lines are there. In hindsight I probably should erased the lines... but I guess it looks fina for now.

Can we improve this picture which is the world? Can it be bettered by removing the tension and the contrast? To remove the struggle and the inevitable end? Remove the black, all of it. Leaves white, only blankness. Is it now the best it can be?
