Fun:*** (3.09)
Difficulty:*** (2.76)



Inspector Ixolite of the Yard was investigating a murder at Nottonmye Manor.
It was a difficult case, and Ixolite was completely stumped until he noticed a message sent to him by the killer cunningly hidden in a newspaper advertisement selling Car Licence Plates.
Inspector Ixolite thought about it for a while, and when he had solved the puzzle, immediately arrested the guilty man.

Q1) How did Ixolite know the advert was a clue for him?

Q2) Solve the code and tell me who Ixolite arrested.

This is the newspaper advert (Car licence plates for sale) that Inspector Ixolite saw.

Plates For Sale;

[W 05 NWO]
[H 13 HSR ]
[O 05 EBM]
[D 08 UNE]
[U 10 HTY]
[N 04 BRE]
[N 16 TTE]
[I 26 LHC ]
[T 10 AEE]

I don't get it, where do u advance the W? Please explain. Anyway, good teaser.

Posted by jimbo04/23/03
Very interesting. Too hard for me.

Posted by flynn06/17/03
It's three puzzles in one. I got the first one easily enough, but the other two were just too hidden forme. Good puzzle, though.

Posted by willymapo06/17/03
Extremely well done!. I got the first one, and thougth of the advance trick but tried on the right side letters, so i did not get any valuable message. Good!

Posted by LilyBell06/17/03
Very good! I thought the numbers stood for the letters of the alphabet. I would have never figured that out.

Posted by ChemicalBoy0806/17/03
my brain is now mush... good job!

Posted by Piffle06/17/03
very clever indeed!

Posted by cccc07/15/03
I have some kind of problem to advance letters.

Posted by fg_4ever07/22/03
Very nice! Couple of spelling errors, but these are the teasers that we live for!

I find it interesting that any criminal would actually be stupid enough to write his name for the inspector to find. But great teaser anyway, I loved it! :D

Usually, I have a hard time figuring out teasers. I might figured out part of a teaser but not the complete one. However, I got this one pretty quick. I love mystery teasers like that. :lol: 8) Keep up the good work, Mr.Ixolite! :D I'm going to read more teasers posted by you. :wink:

Posted by kman61306/18/06
You're right - the first part was easy, but the second part of advancing the letters was too tough for me. Great riddle though!

Who would have guessed the butler? :wink: Solving this was fun! :D

Posted by Musikman21206/18/06
WOW!! I'm not too sure what else to say. That was one good teaser. It must have taken some rhard work to come up with one that is so complex, yet makes you feel like an idiot, for not solving it. Lets have more like this one!

Posted by singh10106/18/06

Posted by kwelchans06/19/06
Great teaser, but isn't the whole "butler did it" thing kind of a cliche?

Posted by scallio06/19/06
Awesome teaser! Took 2 days and the hint. LOVED IT! :D

Posted by Starriddler08/10/08
Why does the butler always do it? :roll:

Posted by srpwuzhere11/16/08

Posted by Babe06/18/12
Glad all you brains liked it and said you got it. It was not my thing. Much too confusing for us dummies. :(

Posted by gaylewolf06/18/12
Babe, I always look forward to your comments, because they usually reflect my thinking, too! I had no clue with this one! :wink: :)

Posted by Aminto06/18/12
Great teaser, really enjoyed it. I did get it, but took 10 minutes to do so!

Posted by FatHead06/18/12
Nice one. Were it up to me, though, I would have said this came from an anonymous tip-off, one who wasn't the killer. Oh well.

Posted by ariel77706/18/12
Excellent ! Got it (without the hint)...thx :)

Posted by iggy3906/18/12
Very clever. Loved it. Needed the hint to get it though. Nice job. 8)
