I don't understand what a "one for one substitution" has to do with saying there are only 2 single letters that decode into single letters. There are supposed to be 12, 4 letter code groups. If there turned out to be 11, or 13, 4 letter code groups, would saying it isn't a one for one substitution fix that? Just for full clarification: Hint # 17: There are 2 letters with 1 letter coding. There are 4 letters with 2 letter coding. There are 8 letters with 3 letter coding. There are 12 letters with 4 letter coding. |

By the way, all single vowels would decode into an E (which is one dot), and all single consonants would decode into a T (which is one dash).

Wow! That's very clever.
I had never could've guessed it was in Morse code.
I was too caught up in binary and plain text search

@Hello There: for an example on how I got it:
Morse Code for T is dash, and every consonant equals one dash, so B (dash) equals T (dash). I is two dots, and the next two letters were EA, or two dots. M is two dashes, and E is one dot, so two consonants is two dashes and one vowel is one dot.
Another example: Y (BAMP: B (dash) A (dot) M (dash) P (dash)). In Morse Code Y is dash-dot-dash-dash.
Does that make more sense?

Wow! Way to go Joe! Great contest Moe!
I went by Morse code on at least 4 different websites and said to myself, "ain't no way it's Morse code!" Boy was I ever wrong.
Fun, brain fryer Moe. I'd do these without a prize.

Thanks everyone! And thank you, Moe, for the great contest! Quote:
