[Paul Stevens]

Look guys.... I found this picture of the Warden when he was younger.



I think what we're trying to decipher is Warden Percy's letter home to mommy.

[Golf]

So I can't figure what "plot" would have to do with anything, in "and then the light that ~~e~~~ ~~ ~~ the ~~~ll plot ~~ ~~e~e~", but the word before "plot" could be small, I suppose?

I hear the footsteps approaching. it's the only sound in my ear as they climb steadily towards me, and then the light that ~~e~~~ ~~ ~~ the ~~~ll plot ~~ ~~e~e~. ~ ~~~t~~~ ~~~~~ ~~ the ~l~~~~~~ t~~~ ~~ ~l~~ ~~~~~e ~e~~~e the ~l~t ~~ ~l~~ ~~~~ ~~t~ ~l~~e ~~~ the little lamb e~~~~e~ ~~t~ ~ ~l~~~.

[Paul Stevens]

Maybe "~~~ll plot" is "small slot" or slit..... like in a door or between bars

[Golf]

What verb could come after "the light that"? Gleams would have revealed an l in there. Sheens would have revealed two e's. I'm out of synonyms for shines, other than these.

Maybe "the light that [VERB] in on the small slot/slit is [VERB]"?

[Golf]

Think I have a solution for the underlined part.

Well this is just ri-goddamn-diculous. I'm glad some of you are making progress because I have never been very good at decoding secret messages. Overly-elaborate yet easily-escapable death traps? Yes. Decoding? How 'bout nooo!

I will try to contribute to the cause in due time.

[Golf]

Where's the new guy? Sulking in his cell?

[Golf]

I'd say we're about ready for another set of letters, if the Warden would please *hides knife behind his back and grins*.

[Saito]

As a note if we do get new letters, I'd ask that anyone who has contributed proofread your contributions against the new letters.

[Rachel Green]

Yes. As someone pointed out, my line with "ear" is wrong as there is no E there. Next time someone updates please take that bit out.

[Golf]

Excluded ear.. Put lamb in paranthesis, it could be wrong and it's kinda distracting me from thinking of other variants. This word "~l~~~~~~" could be repeating itself twice, second time after "That's when you really start...". Proofread to the best of my not-losing-my-mind abilities.

If new letters, I think we should definitely check if some of those S's and H's fit, for instance, and maybe get more. And another vowel.

[Rachel Green]

Just a note. If we fail these challenges, there are some repercussions.

So, considering how difficult this one is, I'd like to note that the following prisoners have contributed:

Prisoner 920077
Prisoner 277058
Prisoner 413022
Prisoner 208986
Prisoner 650829
Prisoner 740359

The following prisoners have commented on it but not contributed:

Prisoner 640326
Prisoner 813142

And the following haven't said anything:

Prisoner 379949
Prisoner 509378
Prisoner 513538
Prisoner 980854

Should we fail, I think this information will be useful. I will not be voting to remove anyone from the first list, and even those in the second are ok, I know some people aren't fans of the decode. But that third group? Yeah. The last groupa mugs who tried to ride my coattails ended up on their backs staring at the roof of the church #apologiestoDMX

I took out the "in my" that went with "ear" as the whole word grouping could be wrong.

The -l------ seems like it is likely a word ending in "ing". Like planning or something like that. I like the thought about plot being slot or slit. Light shining through a slit feels prison-y.

And kudos to whoever got the flavourless food, that's genius.

Also, if anyone feels that I misrepresented them on my list, please say so. I may have made a mistake, it's hard when we are all just numbers.

I will bite your ear off and flush it down the toilet bucket. You know damned well that this prison operates on a multi-layered schedule, so quit protecting yourself with these tripe passive-aggressive attacks on absolutely anyone you can find to attack.

[Prisoner 509378]

The next letters we request, assuming they will ever exist, must be as common as possible 740359 said. "S" is a huge priority, as it is a highly commonplace consonant and it could do wonders to expose a bunch of words in one move. Another vowel to supplement "E" is more difficult to choose as they are all well behind it in commonality. I would suggest "O" and "U" would seem like poor choices. I would sooner choose "A" than "I", so that means right now my top two letters to choose are "S" and "A". After that there are a ton of viable options. We could even take a third vowel.

[Prisoner 509378]

I don't have the ability on this computer right now to use many external resources as an aid, but I do have a recommendation for those who can: use a thesaurus. A lot of what has already been determined leaves us with a number of conceptual possibilities, and those can be translated into actual words that fit the letters provided when proper synonyms are identified.

[Phoebe Buffay]

e,t,a,o,i,n,s,h,r are the highest frequency letters in the english language according to wikipedia. So I agree with "a" and "s" and think about the other letters listed if we get to choose three. Who knows, we may only get to choose one - depends on how diabolical the hosts want to be. There may be another letter that would be in high frequency when talking about jails but I don't know what it would be.

And you're posting right now why? Let's focus on the challenges, failing will happen when we stop focusing. After we've failed, we can talk who to roast.

I never realized "N" was so common. That could be a good choice too, it'd resolve a lot of the "then" type words for good.

[Golf]

Let's make it S, N and an important vowel, E or A, then.

[Golf]

Derp, I mean A or I.

[Phoebe Buffay]

I vote "a".

In that second sentence where we have "in to the small slot" shouldn't "in to" be one word - into? If so we've got that part wrong.

I've looked for a long time at what that word before "in to" - the one with the "e" in it - could be but I'm just not having any luck.

[Rachel Green]

I will bite your ear off and flush it down the toilet bucket. You know damned well that this prison operates on a multi-layered schedule, so quit protecting yourself with these tripe passive-aggressive attacks on absolutely anyone you can find to attack.

I have no idea what any of this means, but how about you decode something and then we'll talk, hmm?

I'm at work for now, will work on it more tonight, but guys, I don't think we're getting any letters. I'd bet we're stuck with what we've got.

[Rachel Green]

And homie, there is nothing passive-aggressive about what I wrote, it's aggressive-aggressive. Anyone who doesn't bother helping with this is permanently going on my shit list.

[NurseWilgy]

I will accept one letter request at this time.

[Gunther]

Since we already have the letter E for Evil, I am requesting the letter A from our Warden. Vowels make it so much easier to sort these kinds of thing out. Really.

Now back to work.

[Gunther]

Quite the productive letter, no? Ah, it feels good to make rash, unilateral decisions again.

[Gunther]

Here's another brilliant idea from your resident evil genius: how about we settle on a specific color for confirmed words, this way we know without question which words are still open to interpretation, okay? While I appreciate all the efforts of those of you who are superior in this sort of puzzle, it was starting to look like a box of crayons vomitted all over the thread.

[Phoebe Buffay]

Okay somebody pick a color who uses the black screen cause thats what most people use. Just please don't pick that green cause I can't see it on my pro silver screen. 813 since you're here why don't you pick.

[Prisoner 509378]

About to post a PICTURE of the text with words marked off as the "A"s have eliminated them. This was easier for me given my computer limitations than copy paste, as silly as that might sound. Please double-check me before proceeding. If I can even load the freaking hosting site. I hate this piece of crap.

[Prisoner 509378]

I hope that worked. Can't even see the image. Awesome.

[Gunther]

I hope that worked. Can't even see the image. Awesome.

Riiiiiiiight.

Okay somebody pick a color who uses the black screen cause thats what most people use. Just please don't pick that green cause I can't see it on my pro silver screen. 813 since you're here why don't you pick.

How about we use dead red? It's an evil color that is currently not being used. It's also easily visible on both forum background schemes.

[Phoebe Buffay]

I agree with dead red and it will be so much easier because we can just use the dead tags instead of the color font thingy. Now, what do we consider confirmed? I had some words that the"a"'s fit exactly where I had them - with the t and the e and the l also fitting can I assume that's confirmed? Or do I have to wait for more letters?

You can read.

[Rachel Green]

We need to know which parts are still "being worked on". It makes more sense for the parts that seem 90%+ confident to just be written, so we can see where we need to concentrate by looking at the parts in dead red, to me!

[Saito]

I'll be more cognizant of that in the future.

[Rachel Green]

I'll be more cognizant of that in the future.

Meh, we're all trying our best here, I don't care which way we do it. I only care about how few of us are trying.
