Ok what we know so far is the F is 100% the first letter. What we also know is that C, I, A, and B are not the second letter based on previous answers.
Alright, let's go through a sequence of confirmations: 1) Fbbbbbaaaaaa, to confirm F is in the first position; 2) FbbGGbaaaaa, to confirm if G is in 4th or 5th position; 3) FbbbDDaaaaa, to confirm that D is in the 5th or 6th position
Oooh, an intriguing murder-mystery? I reckon Nick Nocturne's interest has been piqued, even if he's up to his ears in research, editing, and relaxation.
Alright folks, RUclips already thinks I'm a spambot so I'm letting you all know that I posted the link to this puzzle's reward on my channel. You'll know which video. Enjoy the prize!
I'll throw my hat into the ring with this as my guess. E, D, I, F, H, B, K(?), G, C(?), J, L, A In complete honesty, this Is going to likely take some serious trial and error, however, I'm all for it. The biggest trick will be the "red herrings" that could have occurred at any possible time during the story. My biggest ones being the cup of punch and the rock with glass around it. Maybe I've overthinking this but I suppose we'll see. Going to sleep on it and see how I do tomorrow.
Playing around with a slightly different confirmation method, since we've got a 4/12 down below: How do you feel about FbAbbbaBaEa (note to other solvers: lower case letters are ones we know can't be correct)
FADECBKGLHIJ -- let's try this one. no particular logic using the objects but instead just doing what was based off what was possibly incorrect vs correct so far
I may have deleted my last comment but I will just restarted everything. UGH!!!!! FCDHKGEALJIB F would go first because the Series is called "SUNKEN: THE LAST DIARY OF CHARLOTTE EVE!" C would go here because there not much that clue can add to the story so it would fit perfect H would go here because it could explain Charlotte story more The rest are random ngl. WILL EDIT LATER.....
GUYS IT HAS TO START WITH F heres what i gathered from looking at comments, im going to sleep for now: A has to be on first half and B on the other K has to be on the second half and L has to on the first C has to be on the second half and D has to be on the first E has to be on the second half and F has to be on the first ABCDEFGHIJKL has none correct BJFCLHIDGEAK has none correct LHGKBJFCDEAI has 1 correct FADECBKGLHIJ has 1 correct FCAHLKJIBDEG has 4 correct letters Names Charlotte Adams Evelyn Rundsrtom Murphy Jack Murphy Places Dunscott Objects related to what seem to be major events B.

Also the dead person from the july of 2019 article is probably evelyn cuz when you take the rundstorm off of her name and overlay it on the redacted name it fits perfectly

yup
Only K would give me homework on Christmas.
It’s was colonial Mustard in the study with the candlestick
I'm too dumb for this, but best of luck to those who aren't. And looking forward to Sunken (but no rush)
don't give up
Cant wait for this to get up and running love this creator super talented
Can't wait to see the finished product!
Ok what we know so far is the F is 100% the first letter.
What we also know is that C, I, A, and B are not the second letter based on previous answers.
I think H n.10 from comparing the answers
@@Burnt_s0y_milk my response FADECBKGLHIJ which got a 1/12. pretty good chance that F is correct in 1, which means that H in 10 is incorrect.
@@nathanielm8811 Oh dang :/
I am SO excited
-k. WE ARE NOT GOING TO SLEEP TONIGHT!!
Get ur sleep, I will too, and I’ll be back and grading in the morning, don’t you worry
time to put on my detective hat (and maybe some tin foil)
Alright, let's go through a sequence of confirmations:
1) Fbbbbbaaaaaa, to confirm F is in the first position;
2) FbbGGbaaaaa, to confirm if G is in 4th or 5th position;
3) FbbbDDaaaaa, to confirm that D is in the 5th or 6th position
1) 1/12
2) 2/12
3) 1/12
@@k.6068 Interesting...so F is first confirmed, G is in 4th or 5th also confirmed, and I messed up the D logic somehow.

4/12 correct, nice work!

I screwed up the logic a bit, but think I'm close with the following two guesses:
1) FDIJALGCBKEH; or
2) FDILAJGCBKEH
1) 9/12 holy shit dude
2) 8/12 jfc
@@k.6068 Oh geez those numbers even give an indication of HOW i messed it up, but now i need to unpack the mistake.
I'll throw my hat into the ring with this as my guess.
E, D, I, F, H, B, K(?), G, C(?), J, L, A
In complete honesty, this Is going to likely take some serious trial and error, however, I'm all for it.

2/12!
That's better then I thought.
Was Charlotte 'sorted'?
Talk about an early x-mas present!
Playing around with a slightly different confirmation method, since we've got a 4/12 down below:
How do you feel about FbAbbbaBaEa (note to other solvers: lower case letters are ones we know can't be correct)
1/12, keeping in mind there’s only 11 letters in your string
k, if i just try every computation possible, do i get a pass
do you have time to make 479,001,600 guesses?
According to ChatGPT it would take around 456 years to write every single possible combination.
If you were to write 833 codes per comment it would only take 200 days

Clearly, since you said it was a puzzle, all we need to do is alphabetize the item descriptions and get LHGKBJFCDEAI! ;)
...actually, scratch that - didn't realize the spark notes comment was a paraphrase, not a transcription.

1/12 letters are correct in the combo!
@@ampersandersenok second guess is 0/12 but the first guess was 1/12!

F would go first because the Series is called "SUNKEN: THE LAST DIARY OF CHARLOTTE EVE!"

So, you’re at 0/12, but your assumption of the story is absolutely onto something - go ahead and try another combo!
GUYS IT HAS TO START WITH F
heres what i gathered from looking at comments, im going to sleep for now:
A has to be on first half and B on the other
K has to be on the second half and L has to on the first

im just now realising evelyn Rundstorm Murphy might just be called Murphy due to marriage or some other reason cuz rundstorm is scratched in the video
Also the dead person from the july of 2019 article is probably evelyn cuz when you take the rundstorm off of her name and overlay it on the redacted name it fits perfectly
