If you eval numerically, abs val
Na, Ar, Li
N, Pm, Cr, Li
Number to letter:
LSD
H, out of bounds, Y, D
No luck on cryptography.
Wait... do a hill cipher on the numbers if you have time. 4 numbers in second line. Test it on the plaintext.

Wrong idea...take it more literally.

I was trolling the forums and found this:
Assassinator in Ban the Person Above You wrote:I ban you for making a incorrect accusation. Also because banning is probably more comfortable then a slow and painful death. Actually I wouldn't know. But you will soon.
The sassy may be a regular on that forum.
I am not familiar with the nuances of that game, so any follow-up on this would be appreciated.

...nuances?
Also, last time I posted on a different thread with that account, the mods deleted it. Let's see if the post stays up.

I protect myself because this clue has already been solved and officers need to stay alive.

all of these are factorials it seems... Maybe something to do with an exclamation mark. (Kate!)?
EDIT:
also, they are the factorials of 12, 0/1 (0!=1!=1),20,5
If you use a = 1, b =2 ... , this spells k!a!t!e!. Definitely protect kate...
Note to the sassy: You would get so much flak from the code busters team from our school... everyone knows that real counting systems start at 0, not 1... XD
