From CF 10.4, we think that we are just slightly ahead of the clues, but still have not made any headway in the last few days. We’re really stumped on how to turn the cards into letters, so would love to see a hint on that tomorrow (If you’re feeling generous that is, Harry!).
From 10.4, we think:
1) The areas of the other squares that share sides with the triangle are 36 and 16 (36 + 16 = 52)
2) We think we know how to split the deck into two sets of 36 and 16 (this seems to fit with the clue)
3) The four cards shown (XD/AS/2C/KS) are the next 4 cards after ones that could perhaps represent REPORT (CF 10.2) but this doesn’t tell us much as to what letters these 4 cards could represent
We are still a bit skeptical that the cards will translate directly into plaintext, but it would be nice just to have letters!
