Try 1
B1 = 2 LEFT
B2 = 2 UP
B3 = 2 DOWN
B4 = 2 RIGHT
C1 = 6 LEFT
C2 = 6 UP
C3 = 6 DOWN
C4 = 6 RIGHT
D1 = 3 LEFT
D2 = 3 UP
D3 = 3 DOWN
D4 = 3 RIGHT
E1 = 1 LEFT
E2 = 1 UP
E3 = 1 DOWN
E4 = 1 RIGHT
F1 = 4 LEFT
F2 = 4 UP
F3 = 4 DOWN
F4 = 4 RIGHT
G1 = 5 LEFT
G2 = 5 UP
G3 = 5 DOWN
G4 = 5 RIGHT
SAPHIRE seems wrong. 11 can be PRODUCT if you start at (4,9)
Try 2
B4 = 2 R
B3 = 2 D
E3 = 1 D
D2 = 3 U
F3 = 4 D
C2 = 6 U
D4 = 3 R
F3 = 4 D
Thoughts
- Each clue has 7 letters
- The grid is 7 letters high
- The letters are from A to H--8 letters total (A4 to H1 = 26 total combinations)
- There are 13 clues
- The grid is 13 letters wide
- You can get all the words to be in the grid by starting at a letter, and moving up/down/left/right to get a path with all the other letters. I'm still uncertain what the letter/number pairs signify...
- I wonder if it's the number of steps paired with a direction... there are 8 directions?
- If the codes represent (x,y)-translates, RAGTIME is probably our best shot. It can be generated starting from (1,2) if B4 denotes two steps right and B3 denotes two steps down.
- B means move 2, E means move 1,2, or 3. Numbers 1 through 4 signify directions. (4 = right, 3 = down, 2 = Up, 1 = left).
