Trying to understand the Puck
The Tokyo Titans one with chatGPT it managed to translate:
"๐๐๐ฐ ๐๐ผ๐ ๐๐๐ถ ๐ถ๐ ๐ฐ๐ข๐๐๐ผ๐ก๐ถ๐๐ข๐ ๐ถ๐ช๐ ๐๐ป๐ ๐๐ข๐ ๐ช๐๐ป๐ฃ๐๐"
to
"YOU ARE YET TO UNDERSTAND THE ICE AND HOCKAY"
But english is my second language an have very little experience with codebreaking to figure out what "๐๐ผ๐พ๐ฐ๐๐ผ๐ผ๐๐๐๐ฃ๐๐ช๐๐๐ข๐๐ผ๐ฎ๐๐๐ผ๐๐ผ๐พ๐๐ฅ๐๐๐๐ฅ๐๐ผ๐ฅ๐ผ๐๐ฃ๐ช๐๐๐ช๐๐ก๐ผ๐ฎ๐ช๐ฐ๐๐๐๐๐๐ผ๐๐๐ผ๐ผ๐๐๐๐ช๐๐ผ๐๐๐ผ๐ก" is supposed to mean, but I wanna know! It doesn't seem like the same substitution from before will work...

Have you tried doing the same substitution? What does it result into?
- Shidoniยท Aug 8, 2026
It results into "๐R๐พUIRRO๐๐K๐H๐๐N๐R๐ฎ๐๐RER๐พ๐๐ฅ๐D๐๐ฅ๐R๐ฅR๐KH๐๐H๐SR๐ฎHU๐๐๐๐๐R๐๐RROD๐H๐R๐๐RS".

Mmmmmh. The
Ris appearing way to often... it's likely a replacement for a vowel? @Shidoni what do you think? - Shidoniยท Aug 9, 2026
Got to be. My cryptogram skills are pretty specialized in the variant where you have spaces, sadly, but ๐ผ is probably a vowel, and if it isn't, I'd put money on ๐ being one.
Here, let's try ๐ผ -> E, ๐ -> T:

And the reverse:

The first one has two T๐E, so let's try ๐ -> H:

I dunno. Maybe.

```Maybe it's just a transposition R โ O so like 3 letters back?

That didn't sound likely to me, but I tried it just in case...

LFG! Who is
yourreferring to here? That's the question - doppogยท Aug 13, 2026
the lack of apostrophes is throwing me here
@jpvalery do you have any guesses as to who the your is?
and what are the ice's powers? - Smewhenยท Aug 13, 2026
I think the your may refer to all teams and foolishness may be playing hockay upon the ice
- jpvaleryยท Aug 13, 2026
@doppog I don't know for sure. I have a gut feeling it's GWF that's disturbing the balance. Also that whole having dibs on some Shavings and paying over market price... something smells fishy...
They also fully divested all teams, but also emitting more shares?
