I hear that! This is as frustrating to me as those damn three mods in the RoS plot!

Nah, we could just add pages, and they'd never find it

But I still dont get it...do you?
I know legend just so over this weeks puzzle
Haha. I forgot my login stuff and I must admit to googling. Then I got it again though... Clearly. I didn't get most of 'em. xD

Someone posted that on the neoboard..... if you explain why or how you got that, then maybe we would be able to agree with you....
Just substitution of smaller words that have context.
Someone mentioned the outer and inner rings being equally important, I'm a bit curious how... nothing I've tried works
Someone also said that it wasn't a caesar cypher.

I think it is a Caesar Cipher...but after going through the whole alphabet I didnt get much of anything.

Don't forget that a ceasar cypher can start at any point. For example, with a shift of 3, A would be replaced by D, B would become E, and so on.
A plain Caesar Cipher wouldn't need the spinny wheel, would it? They never gave us this with the prior cryptograms, so it rotates somewhere is what I can figure. I just don't understand how the three rings are important [not a jab, but literally how to use all three].
I tried wltt with pass and moved the central ring so the two w's have the letter p in the middle and it made sense because l was with a and the t was with the s.
try it mabe each word is like that

if thats the case the ring would need to be re-aligned for every word.... ugh
yes i'm trying that right now
I found "pass" too, but if you leave the wheel fixed in that position, the next word is still jumbled. Are you suggesting shifting the wheel for each word?

It has to shift more frequently than per word, because you still have OOX that wouldn't make sense otherwise.
Looks like we are "spinning" our wheels!!

yes... that is the assumption right now....

ok... one other thing I keep trying to remember..... once we decode the puzzle, then we can get the answer... so is the puzzle a question?
