OotS #249 & 250 - More Words from Haley
in the early morning on Tuesday, the 29th of November 2005 by Anarchy
Previously, I put a my grey matter to work to decipher what Haley Starshine was saying in OotS #247 and OotS #248. Well, now I’m sure you’re asking… what about 249 and 250? Well… Haley doesn’t say much in those strips… and I’m not that cool that I can decrypt single words with nothing else to go on. However, I checked around and there do seem to be some consensus on what she is saying.
And here it is… and as before remember that in the following, I have listed what Haley said in the strip… immediately followed by the translation.
Strip #249… a difficult, but not impossible decrypt.
Rthfq pid’cq ckmaz…
Maybe you’re right…
Strip #250… clearly, this one’s anyone’s guess. However, the general agreement seems to be…
Xdfw.
Slut.

Euhm,.. on #249
that can;t be right since the h in the first word and the p in the second word, both mean y in this translation,..
I had a translation at home, if I remember I’ll try and find it.

That was a good catch. However… there’s no rule that says that says 2 letters can’t equal the same translated letter in the end. If you look back to OotS #247 you will see that both the letters B and P both translated to the letter E.
I’m just grateful that Rich Burlew isn’t making it too complex on us by just using simple character-to-character crypto’s.
However, if you do find that this is in error, then please post it. I’d like to know.

Haley in strip #309
Elan i’m in love with you

i’m not in the thieves’guild anymore
I cheat at solitaire
I have a tattoo you’ve never seen!

elan it turns out I may not be exactly what you would call…
April 26th, 2006 at 11:27 pm
I believe that’s “OK, OK, more than once!”
Also, it’s the “thievks’ guild”. I think he made a typo.

erm how do u guys find out about how to translate this..
July 15th, 2006 at 7:29 pm
#330 was easy…

HUH?

My guess is that the last comment:
elan it turns out I may not be exactly what you would call
is that she was about to say “human”. We have never seen her mother and she once showed V some Crystal globes that where passed to her by her mother. I’ll bet her mother was half elf or something since V claimed to have a set of his/her own.

This was pretty easy.
in oots # 251 “oze ktpp ja asf- is “you call it the-”

Is that supposed to be some sort of joke?
Because I can’t speak?
If so, it wasn’t very funny.
#386

“NALE???”
December 22nd, 2006 at 9:16 pm
Anyone know what she’s saying in the single panel for 351 is. I know it’s not terribly significant but I hate mysteries.
December 23rd, 2006 at 12:09 am

Very nice job!! From the looks of things, this may be the last, now that she’s back to speaking common…
December 23rd, 2006 at 12:50 pm

December 23rd, 2006 at 4:47 pm
Ah! So I did. Good catch. I didn’t see that bubble there.

Is there anything you guys /hadn’t/ translated? It’s such a shame that it’s over now… I never figured out there might be a code until a friend of mine, whom I introduced to the comic, told me he had managed to figure out a part of the code for one episode. I then tried to figure out for the one where Haley and Nale are on a date, but I was like “this can’t be right, there ARE no words that would go -a-n’t” (at least if h is already used). Totally forgot the existance of “wasn’t” (I’m not a native speaker). So I figured I must be doing it all wrong and gave up.
Then I saw this site and read pretty much everything there was available, and after that I managed to solve the previous one correctly - but as I came here again, I noticed it had already been posted by Valwryn. So if there’s still something left that had not been solved, could someone tell the number of the episode so that I can give it a go?
