The scoreboard puzzle

looks like

E Γ c H C n g
o n r C n g

Code:
 __   __             __        __

|--  |     --  |__| |     --   --|

 --   --   --  |     --   --|
|  | |  | |    |    |  |    |
 --  |  | |     --  |  |  --


There is a Cng on both lines, so they must mean the same thing on each line.

It has a lower case c and an upper case C.
It has a lower case r and an tall r.

I tried googling ERcHCng onrCng, and google suggested "Etching".
Since the tall r could be half of a T, and the tall C could be half of an I


Code:
 __  __ __            __ __        __
|      |         |  |   |         |  |
|--    |     --  |__|   |     --   --|
|      |    |    |  |   |    |  |    |
 --    |     --  |  | -- --  |  |  --

               __ __        __
                 |         |  |
 --   --   --    |     --   --|
|  | |  | |      |    |  |    |
 --  |  | |    -- --  |  |  --

maybe the code says "Etching on Ring"

Cons: I would have done the capital I differently, just made it look like "|"
I would have put a space between the n and r on the bottom line. But everything else looks right.

So is there a Ring in the book?

PS: I've got the audio book for Book 9, so I'll get the bonus track transcribed soon.


oh my gosh that could work! there must me a secret message on gideons ring. we'll probably find that out in the second series.

About the F crest on Broderick's jacket:

NameUndisclosed wrote:
The crest is right at the bottom of the jacket, very faintly embossed. You can see it engraved into page 174 as well.


And it seems as if our scoreboard code has been solved, by our very own forum moderator, Sapagoo. We are governed by a genius.

Honestly, I've tried everything supplied on this forum to find the Crest but I have not.

But-- If it really is there, who says there's not something else "etched" in the book?

How about on a ring? Wink

I'll be looking! If anything comes up, you'll be the first to know!

To be honest, had I not been told of the crest beforehand, I would have thought it was a freak printing error. I couldn't even see the F in the crest when I first looked at it (and even now, it isn't clear).

Audio Bonus track for Book 9

<bird>
<Microphone>
William McIntyre: Testing, Testing, one, two, three. We have called this emergency meeting of the Madrigals as permitted by section 4.3 of the Madrigal Guidelines, Chapter ...
Fiske Cahill: William, can we just get on with it? There's no time to lose.
William: It's important to follow protocol! Eh hm, hm. We have called this emergency meeting as permitted by section 4.3 of the Madrigal Guidelines, Chapter 23, to discuss the induction of Amy Cahill, Dan Cahill, and Nellie Gomez into the Madrigal branch. Attendees: Fiske Cahill and William McIntyre. Madrigals in absentia...
Fiske: That's fine, William. Thank you. We'll brief the other Madrigals as soon as we have more information.
William: They know you revealed yourself to Amy and Dan?
Fiske: Yes, I needed their approval to grant the children and Ms. Gomez Madrigal status.
William: It was highly unorthodox. I admire Nellie, of course. But it seems like a risky move, especially given our current situation.
Fiske: I know. Ideally, we would have observed her for longer. But we need more allies, and the children need someone they can trust, unconditionally. The final task will push them to their limits, if not beyond.
William: Amy and Dan have exceeded all expectations. They're tougher than we ever dared imagine. They could surprise us again.
Fiske: Sometimes, I wished they'd chosen the million dollars. Right now, they could be back in Boston. Amy would have cleaned out every bookstore in Massachusetts. And Dan would be buried in a pile of new baseball cards. They'd be happy, safe.
William: I don't think the children would have done it differently. Of course, the Hunt's been challenging, but it's given them so much. They know the truth about their family, their parents, and it's made them so much stronger, confident about who they are and what they're capable of.
Fiske: They'll need more than confidence to succeed in England.
William: I know. Do you really think it's possible? Can anyone really unite the branches?
Fiske: They must. Or else it's over. For us, for the family, for the world.
William: I never knew you were so prone to melodrama, Fiske.
Fiske: You know what will happen if the children fail, William. Or did you think Grace was simply being paranoid when she changed her will. The Vesper threat is real. We're running out of time.
William: Of course I understand. I was madame Cahill's confidante. I was ALWAYS there for her. ... I'm sorry, I know it was difficult for you to be away from her. I didn't mean.
Fiske: It's fine. I made mistakes in my past. I just hope I can prove more useful to Amy and Dan than I was to Grace.
William: You're the reason they're still alive. There were so many close calls.
Fiske: But I may not be able to help them this time. I can only imagine what Isabel Kabra is planning. The Lucians are so close to finding all 39 Clues, and I know she won't give up without a fight.
William: What if she knew the truth? The real reason the competition had to happen know.
Fiske: I think Isabel knows more than we think.
William: You're not suggesting that Isabel...
Fiske: I think there are secrets in Isabel's past we never dared to imagine.
William: What do you think Amy and Dan will do when they discover the truth?
Fiske: [sigh] I don't know. They've proven to be enormously resilient, but ...
William: It's one more secret Grace hid from them.
Fiske: Precisely.
William: Well, all we can do is wait... and hope.
Fiske: We've been waiting and hoping for more than five hundred years. It's not enough anymore.
William: That's what the children are for.
Fiske: Yes. The children.

This concludes it. I cannot possibly wait to April 5, 2011.

OMG Isabel's Maiden Name is Vesper-Hollingsworth. Could that mean that Isabel has ties with the Vespers?

Do any of the fingerprints on the last page match one of the Thumbprints on card 139?

The answer for that card was
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Broderick Wizard

My friend solved it and the answer is the same as yours.

Etching on rings! (with an exclamation point)
