Zodiac Killer Puzzle., page 1

So after reading through TheMythLives' excellent thread on the Zodiac killer,

www.abovetopsecret.com...

it crossed my mind that I'd seen a thread elsewhere on BTS where someone was posting code-puzzles for fun, which got me to thinking there are some excellent minds on here and I bet as a group effort we could maybe get somewhere towards solving these.

I think the best thing would be to read through the Zodiac Killer: The Case Reviewed thread for all the background story and then get cracking on the code.

As for me, I'm not great at puzzles, but I do find them interesting.













Good luck!

Could you post the "Solutions", might be some insight, or could be red herrings... might help with some solutions?

I get the feeling that the Zodiac was really intelligent, I know it's possible or even probable that he wasn't as smart as he liked to make out, but seeing as he never got caught and seemed to think he should've been...

Any thoughts on perhaps this also being some sort of map/code?

I think it could be a map code, the solutions are above the puzzle letters. And I cannot post the solution papers (in which the actual code was broken down) because zodiackiller.com has the so called "rights" to them, but they actually don't. So I cannot copy them, but here are the links to be viewed:

Agreed, but due to the nature and complexity of the puzzles it seems there is a meaning to them.

Don't want to be narky, but that didn't really contribute much.

That contributed nothing, good job on wasting 5 minutes of your life. Anyway, I have contacted some of the great minds of ATS, so hopefully, they can come and take a look at things here. Maybe they can see something. We do have some excellent puzzle solvers!

It comes down to this. The guy (or people) were deranged. I don't think that your going to derive much meaning from some cypher that was left by someone claiming to be a killer.

If it was him at all.

If it was, its obviously an attempt to get caught, oftentimes serial killers want to be caught by the police because they cannot help themselves.

The puzzle is distraction. It's a waste of brainpower. Really, look at who supposedly made it. A serial killer. I think that a person that obviously isn't right in the head might not have made a coherent puzzle to begin with. This is apparent by the last line in the unfinished cipher. Its just random junk.

i kind of feel stupid. in the other thread the extra letters bothered me.
