For the record, Message in a Bottle is a great song. Probably one of Sting's best. 😛
Probably second only to the best band (in my opinion)...
BLAAAACK! SABBAAAAAAAAATH!
and (in my opinion) their top song....
ELECTRIIIIIC! FUNERAAAAAAL!

I am trying to come up with a XanthosNZ proof code....Doubt if it would stop him very long though, especially given the above hints. After reading his crypto posts I thought about it and I can see a way that should be pretty secure but this is just a first test, a foray into the pocess. I think I can be pretty sneaky when it comes to these kind of keys.
can i ask you a yes or no question?
Will every letter that you give me in this code be correspondent to every one of that same letter in the code?
like if b=e would that be for every e?
and another yes or no question
Are there some unused letters in this code?

Xanthos is good at codes? i never would have suspected. but i just joined around september so i pretty much don't know many people around here.
Mind orienting me with the roles of most people around here?
edit. ok so every letter is used and no letter is repeating?
ill try...

Originally posted by liteswordatlitespeedWhat do you mean by repeating? I didn't say the letters aren't used more than once if thats what you mean. Some letters are certainly used more than once. BTW, Xanthos is our resident genius type, just ask him🙂 Seriously, he is seriously smart.

There is another serious intellect here, his handle is ThudandBlunder, and posts on other puzzle sites also. There are some really smart dudes and dudettes here for sure. Also some serious world class asholes too, men and women.
Reading your post again, I did not make an effort to use every letter of the AB. There are unused letters, like no X, Z, J. That should cut the odds a bit.

xanthos is gonna get this from these hints probably. im really sorry. im just 15. im a junior in high school who can't do chess very well. I hardly have any time to do anything else but homework and stay up till 10 normally doing said homework. I hate my life but i just keep myself suspended by the fact that...I'm never alone. Yet i am always alone. the one paradox that keeps me perfectly confident about everything.
