0 Guest Posted June 1, 2011 Report Share Posted June 1, 2011 Need hint? I need a hint to proceed. A hint might entice others to respond as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Guest Posted June 1, 2011 Report Share Posted June 1, 2011 The answer is .- .-.. --- --- ..-. -. because it is symmetrical. I never would have in a million years guessed it without a hint. You are right, it is hard to think of a hint that would be helpful yet does not give it away. Maybe mentioning it predated vacuum tubes or was an old code? ..- ... . / -- --- .-. ... . / -.-. --- -.. .ok..here's the hint.. i might as well have given the answer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Yodell Posted June 1, 2011 Report Share Posted June 1, 2011 So i get the answer is c)ALOOFN @ Nana : well done !!! even with the hint the symmetry was still kinda hard to spot ..... @ sak_lko : you could have given a hint like 'think like an animal in cold waters' or smth along those lines Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Guest Posted June 1, 2011 Report Share Posted June 1, 2011 (edited) From the given word list, to include the correct answer ©, if the [right-most] middle letter is excluded the coded "word" [without spacing] remains symmetrical. FEEL, HISS, BOTMV, AIEEN, ALOOFN FEL (..-. . .-..) ..-...-.. HIS (.... .. ...) ......... BOMV (-... --- -- ...-) -...-----...- AIEN (.- .. . -.) .-...-. ALOFN (.- .-.. --- ..-. -.) .-.-..---..-.-.

0 Guest Posted June 2, 2011 Report Share Posted June 2, 2011 you are right but there letters were added only to make the words more complex and draw the attention away from morse code..alas. it didn't work As there are spaces in the code, the is no true symmetry. Perhaps if you had added letter breaks (spaces and apostrophes, for example, in some of 'words' and said to ignore these letter breaks -- FEEL, HISS, BOT'M V, AI E'EN, [ALOOF N] -- then the symmetry would exist.
