The coded notes are a series of notes found in a small underground shelter in [[Wasteland]].
The coded notes are a series of notes found in a small underground shelter in [[Wasteland]].


They are found taped all over a wall, and on a table next to the wall is a White Mask model with a "dirty" skin.
They are found taped all over a wall, arranged vaguely like a pair of wings. Below the table next to the wall is a white Mörkö mask model with a "dirty" skin.


Things to think about:
*There is T.50=P which doesn't fit into the key table, but <code>0x50</code> is the [[wikipedia:ASCII|ASCII code]] for <code>P</code>.
* The notes are a 6x6 grid of "post-its" with red text.
* Each line of post-its except the first has a symbol on it.
* These appear to use the same letter-number code as the [[Body_message|Body message]].
** Only the letters A, R, Q, and T are used.
** Upon closer inspection the numbers are much higher than any code that has been found so far.
** T.24 on (0, 3) has a weird green outline. May be a red herring.
* Zuntti said we have to use everything we know already for this.
* Anomalies: T.25 [Y/E] (could the distance between Y and E (20) be an offset for something?)
== The hint ==
The hint Zuntti gave us for this segment is "4. What are you looking for? The right Question? The right Answer? The Right person?".

<pre>
Main transcription (PLEASE use a widescreen application so the text doesn't get shoved to other lines) using the following {{Encryption-key}} encoding table (unreferenced characters are marked bold or replaced with underscores, depending on whether they're known or not):

T is "IFYOUKNOWITJUSTSAYITTHENEOUGETIEREDRAVEN?????????P" (Truth) </pre>
T is "IFYOUKNOWITJUSTSAYITTHENYOUGETI_REDRAVEN" (Truth)  


Before decoding.
*The "answer" probably either comes from the [[Wasteland radio morse]] or a texture used in the map <code>infra_ee_binary</code> ([[:File:Binary raw.jpg|binary_001]]), another possibility is the [[Reactor lights code]], of which one of the solutions is "otherworld".
*The "right person" probably comes from the [[Villa woodboxes]].
*The "question" comes from the [[Bunker computer code]].

{{Needs-investigation}} Note the typo in the note in column 2, row 4, where T.36 resolves to "R", but should be T.38=V. Also, the note in column 3, row 3 contains the words "black word", which might be another typo of "black world". The note column 6, row 1 contains R.36, while it only properly resolves to T.36=R.
