SO, I was just randomly plugging letters in, and the only name I can get to work is tyrian

Because you didn't look at what he removed and substitued.

The I AM didn't come from there... the concept was right... the execution wasn't

You have to go play around with the full line of the morse code.
Take the letters and convert them into the Morse... then replace the letter, not the symbols
around it, with the equivalent Morse.

Then look at it, the H C N equaled the I A M... except the only place the M could
have come from in the line of full Morse was the far right side. I and A are right next
to each other as he said, H and C I believe.

Poop. I thought I had something. I hate coincides

I am Tyrian

I still win

For clarity...

My reply was in regard to that last edit of yours stating "why"
didn't it match with the SO part... not disputing your results.

The first part I responded with - was sorta directed at nuclear1's post.
Being the "concept/execution" section.

If I'd had sense, I'd have realized my YT turned around was TY...
but I didn't have my notes from when I came up with that.
My 8, F, and B were likely from one of the sections that didn't match the SOS key.

Wait a minute... If this wasn't the official HLP April Fools joke, then what was?


*glares at admins


Speaking of which, did any of the the admins other than Kali even know what was going on?

[redsniper]

The joke is, there was no joke.

@JGZinv:  My response or thesizzler's?  (Been doing Calc all day, a little brain fried.)

@thesizzler:  Kalfireth wasn't in on it either.  No one was.  But when Kal did the IP lookup on JohnDoe, I got a little scared.  He saw my address and JohnDoe's address was the same.  I'm glad he played along.  *Whew*  And thanks again Kal!

The joke is, there was no joke.

What he said.

So I got that right too? Man, I'm good at this...

[JGZinv]

My long post on page 4 was to you Tyrian.

The short one was to sizzler.

[Flipside]

Hehehe, I'm glad there are people on here who are good at codebreaking, I wasn't even going to attempt it

Nice one Tyrian

Yep, please see the other April Fools joke. Sorry it wasn't anything more grandly entertaining... I figured this year it'd be better to go with something that didn't risk screwing up the forums - and the other admins agreed. Who knows, next year we might do something really original, like mock Wing Commander

Fake Steak's death.

To explain what I was doing, over the last three days I was keeping
all my notes in e-mails (AOL is useless for note keeping) and yesterday
I figured that I was done with it/I'd posted everything worth keeping.
So I deleted my notes.

That, was a mistake. 

Look in your trash / deleted items folder, quick - sometimes you can get it back.

[JGZinv]

Nope nada....  maybe if I'd done that this morning.

[Ulala]

Hmm, missed my chance. Oh well, nice work team.

[Tyrian]

Thanks for the positive feedback!

Now I ask this:  Would you all be interested in me making and posting more codes?  (No hidden identity thing, just good ol' codebreaking fun.)

[BS403]

When i saw the code, i figured it was you, because you where the one who did the two freespace codes awhile back.
I think

[Mefustae]

$20 on Goob.

I'll take that $20, thanks.

But I need that money for candy!

Why don't you create a cipher thread in the Pub?  Or maybe ask an admin to create a child board there.

I was wondering if anyone even remembered those...Guess so...

I can't turn out codes that fast, but I will definitely post new ones there.
