Welcome to Hyrule Castle, the traditional first stop for players who are embarking on their quest to beat the Classic Mode of Super Smash Bros. So too will it be your first stop on your quest to become Sole Survivor of Super Survivor Bros. The first challenge is very simple. Much like Super Smash Bros. is a collection of many video game universes uniting into one, so too have we gathered a series of quotes and phrases from a multitude of Nintendo games. All you have to do is identify the quote or phrase.

Naturally, it's a little trickier than that. Instead of letters, the quotes will be written using a bunch of symbols from around Hyrule. When your tribe is ready to start, we will post ten visual cryptograms in a thread your tribe designates for such a purpose. Work on the cryptograms as a tribe, and when you've solved as many as you can have one person post all of the quotes in bold. YOU ONLY GET ONE BOLDED POST!

If that wasn't tricky enough, each cryptogram will have it's own code. Just because a symbol is equated to a letter in one cryptogram does not mean that symbol will be equated with the same letter in the next cryptogram.

Each cryptogram your tribe solves will earn a point. In the event of a tie, the tribe that takes less time to submit will win immunity.

If you have any questions, please ask them here.


When can the most people be here? I'm available all 24 hours.

I still have no clue but I'm leaning towards the end being consonant consonant 'y' - because that allows axe to be a vowel and it's somewhat likely axe is a vowel in the first word.
Offline Profile Quote Post Goto Top
 
R.O.B.

Ok I think it is vowel vowel consonant, because for rhyming it would need to go VCCy to rhyme.

But a word ending in VVC would rhyme.

like butty and hotty don't rhyme, but queen and green do.

third letter in the first word could be something like an "r" too like if it starts with "th" somehow
Offline Profile Quote Post Goto Top
 
R.O.B.
Member Avatar

which means the axe is either a U or a consonant. Which means that second letter of first word is likely a vowel, or the word starts with a vowel.

Sorry guys, I've got nothing on this one. We may not want to linger too long. If we're this stumped it may be the case that the other team will be as well. It is a gamble but it may be worth it to just submit quickly rather than rack our brains for too long. Just something to think about.
