Scioly Assassination Number 13: pigeon is For Children

[JoeyC]

Poor Vofbassist, I am sorry to tell you this but you are actually the 6th, not the 5th, so you will not be an officer. If you don't believe me you can count. That being said now the fun can start! Welcome everyone to Rose Red, a historic mansion in Washington state, you see here (doors lock), ladies have a tendency to vanish. The men, oh well the men have a nasty habit of showing up dead. In this house there is no escape, the windows are bulletproof, the phones disconnected, cell phones have no service, and worst of all no WIFI! Until you find me you will be killed, one by one. It seems that you might have to prepare to stay overnight for a while, you may see the bedrooms prepared for you upstairs.

I shall start us off with a bit of a scavenger hunt, lets see how great your mastery of codes and ciphers REALLY is!

[vofbassist]

Really? Dang, this clue looked like fun... And I only counted 4 people who said they were in before I posted. Nevermind, Ichaelm was the one I missed.

[ichaelm]

It's Mores code. I'd translate it right now, but I have SO stuff to do now. Somebody else do it, now that it's easy.

[Pleiades]

aww man i missed it!! I think this is the first one i missed since the second assassination

Obviously, there is another layer of transilation.

[ichaelm]

Second layer: ASCII

(you can tell it's ascii because of the frequency of spaces)

Another?

[eyeball138]

Yeah, I was about to do the ASCII translation, then I saw this. I don't know what's next though.

[rocketman1555]

I missed it, now i'm mad, because i really wanted to be an officer

[JoeyC]

Look, I actually made a slight mistake, and due to it the problem is almost impossible as is. I would like to tell you what you should have gotten at this step. I still don't know if you will get it, but they way I see it, if I am to get my kill, I will get it right.

GO ON

(you'll notice the only difference is spacing)

[ichaelm]

Are you kidding? I just spent like a half hour trying to figure that out and now I have to start all over?

Grrr.
