0 grey cells Posted March 30, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 (edited) OK . I think this sequence is a bit too vague. Connect it with the english alphabets. Edited March 30, 2008 by grey cells Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 abhisk Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 OMG. If Felipe has the right answer, I wasted like, half an hour, looking for something different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 grey cells Posted March 31, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2008 6! If you type a text message using telephone numbers you'd get IDBEMGJM or [4,4,4,3](ID)-[2,2,3,3](BE)-[6](M)-[4](G)-[5](J)-[6](M) Good one! Good thinking , Felipe. And I frankly did not know about that one.So thanks. But my answer is on a different base of reasoning . See Hint no.1 and try this hint. I got the idea for this one from one of BN's posts on number sequences. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 grey cells Posted March 31, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 31, 2008 (edited) ... I don't get it... I too do not get it . We have to wait for Felipe to give the explanation. But as I said it was not the method on which I had based my question . Edited March 31, 2008 by grey cells Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 grey cells Posted April 1, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 OK . The puzzle must still be vague , that's why I think there have been no answers. Count the number of elements in the sequence and relate it with names which we encounter every year. After this use the hint mentioned in my second post.

0 Nikyma Posted April 2, 2008 Report Share Posted April 2, 2008 The answer is 5 It's the number of consonants in the names of the months. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 grey cells Posted April 2, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2008 The answer is 5 It's the number of consonants in the names of the months. Yes . Nikyma got it . Maybe it was a bit tough without the hints . Because I think the there was little to go by initially. But full marks to Nikyma. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 grey cells Posted April 2, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 2, 2008 So was the 2nd number supposed to be a five? Good observation . But I meant the answer to contain only non-repititive Consonants. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Guest Posted April 4, 2008 Report Share Posted April 4, 2008 For those who wondered on my solution, sorry to reply so late... but here's the reasoning. the sequence is 4 , 4 , 4 , 3 , 2 , 2 , 3 , 3 , 6 , 4 , 5 , _ for those who watch Prison Break - Season 2, you might remember a code of numbers Michael sent Sarah which was like typing a message in the cell-phone where 4 could be G, H or I. In this case, the selected letter would be determined by the amount of consecutive repetitions. 4,4,4 = I 3 = D 2,2 = B 3,3 = E 6 = M 4 = G 5 = J First we get IDBEMGJ. Now we can make sense to it using spaces and signs; I'D BE M! G J _ which actually makes sense because the code tells you next letter in the logical sequence 4(G), 5(J), 6(M). In other words it's like I say I'm going to be 6! 4, 5, ? I really don't know if I made it clearer or just confused you people a little more, but I tried my best.
