Message: <blockquote data-quote="barsoomcore" data-source="post: 2450023" data-attributes="member: 812">/me heaves on thread to get it back on topic...I find very detailed word puzzles a problem, but something like a secret message concealed in the first letter of each line doesn't bug me -- I assume the translation into English captures the puzzle in a reasonable fashion and leave it at that.I don't mind being rewarding for doing some research and work and stuff, but a puzzle that demanded intense study of On War would get solved through massive application of violence. I provide my players with plenty of not exactly puzzles but in-game texts and so on that are always in English -- the assumption being that they are translations (an assumption that lets me get away with saying "This is the greatest poem in the WORLD!!! In Naridic." without having to actually write the greatest poem in the world, and blaming the lame-ass translation.</blockquote>
