Yesss! Please help! I'd PM the Sassy to tell them. And. The sixth mannequin is upside down.

I'm pretty sure you're allowed to help decode even if you're not an officer...

Alright, so the code is a stickfigure code from Sherlock Holmes.
I decoded it and got these letters:
AMHEMTOAMHEMTNOEL
Hopefully none of them are wrong, but that's as far as I've gotten.
Events: A&P, DD, Circuit Lab
States/Nats
2017 DD: 1/16
2018 A&P: 1/29
2019 A&P: 1/22
2019 PM: 1/22 
If you're curious...yes, I like rabbits.

Hey do you think its a skip code? And why are there 17 letters for 16 mannequins?

"Amhem to amhem noel"
Isn't there a user "ashernoel?"
I protect ashernoel based on this reasoning.

Benewcomb: There is no "t" after the second "amhem."

The Dancing Men cipher was used as part of the Codebusters event (it isn't one of the ciphers tested this year, but was in 2017 and 2016). This year and in 2017 it has been an event in NC and WI, and it was a trial at nationals 2016.

I agree with that decoding. I can't tell if this is a kill or ID clue.

Edit: Actually, I think the second T should be omitted. I got AMHEMTOAMHEMNOEL

Ah, yep. There is no second "T." I don't know how that got there. :oops:

So is there anyone here who did Codebusters at Nats?
I could also protect Alex since he is from NC, and it is being run there...

EDIT: Anyone know what invitationals Codebusters will be held at? I know Princeton and MIT will have it this year. It could also be someone who does Game On...

The Sassy already tried to kill Alex earlier in the game, would they really do that again?
