2 questions: Are the words "Hint # 12:" supposed to be in quote form? (eg. is that a part of the hint?)
And does this code involve a Polybius square?
I might be getting somewhere.. soon.

No. I'm sorry, that was my mistake. It's corrected now.

Lower Left "Square" may be better or more accurately depicted like this:

3Y3YRP
NNEW9Z
F17UNM
GAR9ER
VBCLSR
TFDGVH
FDGVFM

Hint # 14: Decoding Moe's Code 101

Find the # 1 (see the RikCando's Magic Square). Find the 1st #1 (start at the NW corner!) go counter clockwise (northern spin) all the way around to the next #1. Write it down.

Lather, rinse, repeat 2-9.

Decipher the encoded message. (Remember the words are NOT split up but may be combined with other words in each "square")

So if I understand this correct, section 3 result would be:
NFGVTFDGVFMHRRMZPRYN1ABCLSEN9WE7R


Code-Breaking-For-Silver-Part-VI-|-Winner:-Rikcando!

btw, I expected the Northern Twist to go up, or inside out. Could be why I was confused, I was looking at it inside out.

Note, there is no FMHR without DGV, so that may be one word. (DGVFMHR)

The other DGV's are followed by a 'Z'


7)JGKRGPRXFGXCSS Word ending in a double letter? and only 2 'X's in the puzzle? We are thinking '_ull'.

At this point I can see the only clues left to be of use would be #1, #3, and the fact that #2 and #6 are missing.

My daughter showed me the lyrics of a song written jointly by #1 and #3 and I was embarrassed to read it. I could not read it aloud with her in the room. I think the quote is more or less about them and not a lyric. At least I hope so.

Ah, I missed this hint.
Hint # 13: "It's Bizarro Time", yelled Superman.

I am hoping this is in reference to moving in reverse around the section to create the crypto-quote.
