GFY. It wasn’t about the stupid in-n-out. I wanted the triumph which you stubbornly denied me. I’m pissed. What’s the point in eating my burger when you left a bad taste in my mouth? WTF? Go shove it.

Crystal,

I’ll take you to lunch next week but to be perfectly clear on something… that invitation was for whoever cracked the second to last puzzle not the LAST puzzle.

That being said, when the second to last puzzle was cracked, the results were posted BUT Jeremy had neglected the part saying, “Oh and of course, this only applies if you this entire e-mail message on your blog.” – He added it AFTER I pointed it out via e-mail.

In any event; let’s drop this and so long as you are driving or willing to wait for one of the days I have the car; I’ll take you to In & Out which is where you requested to go.

Oh snap. Apologies. Apparently that part wasn’t even encrypted. That was the Email sent explaining the final cipher. Hence don’t know what code youre looking up since that part wasn’t even coded to begin with. It was right there in plain english.

You can look up right there listed on the blog is the original notes and all the deciphering step by step. the 2nd to the last one reading:

I know the third encryption is harder. It is meant to be. Are the words going up and down? Left to right? All of the above? Do words really merge like that of a crossword puzzle? That is for you to find out and for me to know; truth is, even I have a hard time reading it after I carefully crafted it.

Because this has been an absolute thriller experience for me; whoever cracks this puzzle and e-mails me what it reads, I’ll treat them out to lunch next week. Of course they have to be working at the same company or be willing to come out to Anahiem Hills during my lunch hour to cash in on the prize.

Oh and of course, this only applies if you this entire e-mail message on your blog.

He *did* post it on the blog and I *did* crack it.
You’re still a cheapskate punk. “Dishonor! Dishonor on you! Dishonor on your cow!….”

I’m not denying anything, I simply need to remember what exactly I said in the code before I commit to you who isn’t even the owner of Alf.

In the e-mail that I sent to Jeremy I wrote:

“Your free lunch is almost at hand. Solve this with your Twitter and blog cronies and you’ll get lunch anywhere you’d like one day during the week that you solve this. ”

So now I need to check the code to see if I sweetened the deal. I apologize for forgetting to do so yesterday evening but that is just the way it went.

Totally cracked the final code and John Jones is made of suck! He owes me lunch and he’s denying it. Cheapskate.
