CRYPTOGRAMS

Saturday September 30
by Catspaws

Sol is not only full of fascinating bars and eateries, but also of interesting trinkets you can pick up. As role-play team leader, I tend to enjoy sharing these trinkets. It's not unusual for a game host to give away a slithy during a game, but how often does everyone get a prize for playing? All our players this week received a set of special dice provided by the staff in the Old Earth Taproom on Mercury. If you missed the game, you can get your own set of dice by asking at the Taproom.

After choosing a selection of songs from the jukebox, we began the first puzzle, which Gilar and Genike managed to solve.

PLAYER NAMES STARTING WITH "S" (QW or DI SYSTEMS or DI COMPANIES):
LMIJGMY
LGJBZD
LAXMS
LJDGJDJ
LZLLQ
LZIBXMS

As mentioned earlier, there are many popular bars and eateries in Sol, so it made a perfect topic for the second puzzle, solved by Gilar and Dunavant.

POPULAR BARS IN SOL:
ZKYSCYK
KNS'Q / XCQSNV
DMNNCSS'Q / AKR / GVJQM
TMRNJZFMNQ
VUR / MKNSG / SKINVVA
ZGMW / RCMQMU

As most should know, Fed is supported by the purchase of slithy toves. One of the special things you can do with your slithies is to sponsor Fed, for which you get your name posted on the website. Gilar, Dunavant, Genika and Caesar managed to solve this list of special Fed sponsors.

FED SPONSORS (http://www.ibgames.net/fed2/info/sponsors.html):
DSKSLPCS
PFLSBSLM
TPWGKKHLN
NMHCKHLZ
WSYCOQL
ZOSJMHBS

If you don't want to sponsor, there are quite a list of things you can purchase with a single slithy tove. Gilar, Liakell and Dunavant solved this list.

THE TOPIC: THINGS YOU CAN BUY WITH A SINGLE SLITHY (http://www.ibgames.net/fed2/extras/gifts.html):
ZCFVLC / WCZNQUC
OHNUVFB / UVFBGLCZ
UGWLVFW / CSCFBLQVO / UCZLQRQUHLC
FHZZQHXC
UDHZFW / HOE / FCEHKKQVOW
BZQNHLC / ZVVF / QO / RVV

When the scores were tallied, Gilar came in first, with Dunavant and Genike tied for second. Gilar gave his slithy award and one of his own to the second place winners, and Dunavant asked me to save his for the next game. Hence next week we will again be awarding a slithy tove to the winner.

We play Cryptograms each Saturday at 4.00pm eastern from various pubs around Sol. Be sure to join me next week and give your brain a workout.
