Have flicked through my thesaurus and am more confuzzled than ever! Have learned several new words though Tongue

I suspect it's easier than we're making it.

Thames House?
St Albert Hall?
a Masonic Lodge?

kirmo, I think you're really, really, really close.


RE: Code Breaking Competition 2.0 - Nia M - 26-01-2010 12:32 AM

Is the answer definately a place?

ETA:
What's still got me paranoid is 'Here's an additional clue, the alphabetical replacement for 'hym' = 'dlt' BUT if you put 'rythym' through the entire encryption process it comes out with 'tldjln'.'
I think I've decoded the riddle, but I didn't use that clue, which makes me think I've got it very wrong...

The O2 Arena?


RE: Code Breaking Competition 2.0 - Nia M - 26-01-2010 01:49 AM

Is it the water cooler on the Grid?

If you PM me with what you think the riddle is I'll confirm whether you're right or not.
BTW, I think I figured out the answer to the riddle. I'm waiting for Nitrus to confirm or deny.

Have PM'd you.

Also, Nitrus - I think you misspellt rhythm... Tongue (Unless that was intentional)


RE: Code Breaking Competition 2.0 - bertowud - 26-01-2010 03:02 AM

Nia,

The 4th word is wrong. Otherwise, you have it.

I think the misspelling was intentional so you'd get what the deal was with that part of the clue.

If I'm right, it's definitely a place.
