[Oracle is on your airwaves, using a voice distortion to make a call on all imPorts.]

Seeing the posts here, we have all received some form of message. A cipher. I want to decode it. We need to.

What message have you received?

[OOC EDIT: Per the recent OOC Mod Post, and a response to my question to them on plurk, the thread that previously held the solution and discussion about it has been deleted. I apologize to those that had commented in these threads, but this post's aim is to begin the IC discussion process. I look forward to future posts that will reflect the solution in game!]

finally askin the real questions

as 4 proof if u look below @ my idiot grunt tupp he gave 1 of the clues away w/o thinkin but it aint mine

im way more interested n what ppl r willin 2 offer for it i aint particularly hurtin 4 nothin atm

[forgeabettertomorrow]

only members of team skull got clues?

[golisolation]

seems so aint seen no1 else get ne

[forgeabettertomorrow]

well thats an interesting commonality

anyway with the hint your boy dropped I think I can figure this thing out so I doubt Ill need yours

[golisolation]

it is aint it?

yeah well good luck w/ that

[Tupp is gonna get a beatdown...]

[forgeabettertomorrow]

[RIP IN PIECES TUPP]

real talk though I only want to know one thing:

do you think what you got came from OTO?

[golisolation]

[DIED HOW HE LIVED: BEING A MORON.]

u think ur boy gettin up 2 dirty dealings w/ them huh?

[forgeabettertomorrow]

no I dont

I just find it interesting that Team Skull seems to be the ones with clues

so either your mysterious benefactor was counting on Tupp being braindead and leaking his clue or you guys worked with someone who knows more about this

But I also know your feelings on OTO

I just wanted your opinion

[golisolation]

cant say i have ne idea why we got the clues

maybe whoever sent this message knew i wouldnt give the clues up easily

tupp notwithstanding

[Which...makes him their unwitting guard dog in a way, huh? Not that Guzma's really thinking about it like that.]

[forgeabettertomorrow]

well if you trust the source thats really all that matters to me

I can work with 'wise' and 'eight pieces'

[golisolation]

aint sayin i trust em not exactly but the timing is what gives it credibility

BUT! guess well c if that confidence aint 4 nothin then huh? go flex ur need 2 b the hero yo

[forgeabettertomorrow]

screw the hero crap I just like puzzles

like seriously itll be cool to find out what this all means but when was the last time we got a cipher to solve!

I'm doing this for fun!

[golisolation]

[Okay, that gets a laugh out of Guzma, too bad Darin doesn't know!]

shit man then go 4 it
thats a better reason 2 do this imo

[obediences]

Unfortunately, I don't really have much to offer. I'm not rich here.

[ He's not in a good bargaining position, and he knows it, and doesn't like it. ]

Free moving services probably wouldn't cut it, I'm guessing?

[golisolation]

moving services u mean like helpin me move to a new crib or something???

[It also doesn't help that Guzma's loaded because of some SHADY DEALS. He really meant it when he said he wasn't hurting for nothing right now.]

[obediences]

Yeah, exactly that. [ He can't tell if Guzma's skeptical or if the guy's actually intrigued by the offer. It's so hopelessly banal, but— ]

And with no questions asked, I guess. I have superstrength and I can teleport anywhere with an elevator. Means I can lug all your furniture and belongings pretty easily and quickly.

[golisolation]

[Alright, that just cracks Guzma up, he thought he was pulling his chain, but...nope, this guy is for real.]

nah dude im settled & happy where i am but props 4 tryin

but i gotta ask do u specifically need an elevator to teleport? that seems kinda wack

[obediences]

[ And that makes Luther laugh at his communicator, too. Truer words never spoken, buddy!! ]

It is pretty... uh, wack, yeah. I go into an elevator, press a button, and when the doors open again, it can open to an elevator door somewhere else. Anywhere else.

It's an annoying restriction. But still more useful than I first thought. There's a lot of elevators.

[golisolation]

srsly what a weird restriction but n a city i c it aint 2 bad

well if u evr go campin b sure to pack an elevator i guess lmao

[obediences]

Good thing I don't go camping often, then.

So. You want to sell your clue, but there's seriously nothing that you actually want for your clue?

[golisolation]

campin aint that gr8 neway

i just wanna c what ppl r willin 2 do or give 4 it & if some1 offers somethin I find worthwhile then mayb ill go 4 it till then im fine keepin it 2 myself

whether or not this gets solved dont matter 2 me

[obediences]

[ sIGH. Too bad no one can actually reach through the network and corral this guy. Luther feels the helplessness, staring at his screen. He doesn't have anything to offer except brute strength, and that's useless here. ]

Alright, fine. If, I dunno, some aliens start dropping meteors on the planet because we didn't interpret their message fast enough, you can reassess.
