FIRST UP: THE OMINOUS LETTER FOUND TEN DAYS AGO. THE CIPHER ON IT INCLUDES THREE ENCRYPTIONS. YOU'VE FIGURED OUT ONE. NOW FIGURE OUT THE OTHER TWO. ONE FLIPS, THE OTHER ROTATES.
SECOND UP: THE COUNTDOWN. IF YOU'VE BEEN PAYING ATTENTION TO IT FOR THE PAST FORTNIGHT OR SO, YOU'LL SEE THERE ARE FIVE DAYS LEFT. START WORRYING IF YOU HAVEN'T ALREADY.

No offense, but I see a lack of development in that department, Maniac. You did not give us the slightest hint; no explanations of what you thought the shadow's personality was like, etc. It may just be me, but I enjoy writing other characters. Erelye just makes me feel evil. Then again, Evil Feels Good. Once again, I apologize for the rudeness, but it seemed rather abrupt. Is this just an excuse to go on the Neutral side?

I'm glad someone found that post before it triggered the spam filter! That transmission is talking about the message from the Ominous Letter. You'd better crack it, and fast. You only have 5 days left...

... could you link to the page the code was revealed on? I cannot seem to find it again. Also, twin, I think I found out where you got your interpretation of Waluigi. BRAWLINTHEFAMILY!

Did we already solve this one?
TO ALL UNITS: THIS MEETING IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT. WE HAVE EXTRAPOLATED ENOUGH DATA FROM THE GODMODDER'S CODING TO INITIATE THE COUNTEROPERATION. TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE. WE TRUST THAT YOU CAN GET TO THE CONCLAVE SAFELY AND WITHOUT DISCRETION.
-T.E.
Also, for the code... Make sure you DECRYPT the Vigenere cipher and not ENCRYPT it. (Yes, there is a Vigenere. You guys figured that out; I mentioned it in the transmission. That means there's two ciphers you haven't discovered... Apply them and voila.)
Nimbleguy figured it out. You get 901,000,000,000,000,000 imaginary internet points.
@Nimbleguy: The Conclave was previously mentioned to be a building created by the U.S. government to house Project Binary. It's where the Counteroperation will take place. Looks like they're having a secret meeting in five days' time.

I think (n)spoopy(n+2)me is a cipher... wait. ROT(amountfortheominus) -> spoopy... ROT(amountfortheominus + 2) -> me...
then used as a key for a vigilante cipher on Pirates Cove...?
happen
Somehow, I ended up GM-ing this thing over at Bay12;
