0 Guest Posted October 29, 2008 Report Share Posted October 29, 2008 I'm guessing that all the numbers stand for a letter. Is the code the same for all the lines or does it change? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Guest Posted October 29, 2008 Report Share Posted October 29, 2008 Is it significant that there's no 10? All the numbers from 1-14 are in the clues except 10. Does that mean something or am I way out in left field?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't want to make it too difficult for the first one. Kudos to PoudreAvenger who clearly had it figured out from the start. I'll work on some more for you.

0 Guest Posted October 29, 2008 Report Share Posted October 29, 2008 Definitely props to PA. I had to go through the entire thread from Itachi-San to even figure out what was going on. I like it though, if you reassemble the information you can present it almost like a cryptoquip except more complex. Are there more of these riddles on the site already? And thanks Prof, I thoroughly enjoyed all the hours I spent working on that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prof. Templeton
My 3,4,9,11,12,14,13 can be a whisper or noise,
My 5,9,7,11,12,14 is one who, a pen, employs,
My 12,7,1,3,4,5 were once always chaste,
My 7,4,6,1,4,3 is now once again laced,
My 3,4,2,6,8,7,4,5 are endured by the old,
My 5,11,13,4,2,9,14 is a story untold,
Since the day it was begun,
My Whole can never be undone.
