[RINGS] stuff to solve between phases

well we should solve that file list at deep, and that one old code jjdfi ud ....etc and that code from ftr in the ALT tag of image

from what I remember, I think I either saw something saying they were irrevelent, or that the first ring would open these files. I've been also working n the ALT tag and the JJ code.

ok i see so you work on those things and see if it helps.

Because some people thought the code might be in another language I did a frequency analysis on large amounts of German, French and Latin:

German (magazines):

Total letter count = 6058

Maybe it'll help some people solve this clue.

My thoughts on that code, is there is not yet enough info to do anything with it yet, but will become useful as the hunt progresses.

well if that was the case i would wait to give the code instead of handing it out in the beginning, maybe we should divide up work and take it.

well, if you could try and find where it said they were irrelevant, plz let us know, so we dont do extra work for nothing

The only thing is that I CAN"T remember where it was. I think it was saying they wre irrevelent at the TIME, or that they'd be revealed after the first ring is found. I never paid much attention to it, so I can't remember what thread I saw it in.

Phase two just started, so i assume all the unsolved clues were phase 1, and should be dropped.

where does it say phase two started.

Ummmmmmmmmmm, the thread entitled PHASE TWO!!!!!!

i thought we had til wednesday to take a break AP4.

We'll see, i guess
