here is my translation of the code for contest.
Read top to bottom, from left to right it makes more sense then right to left.(i started decoding right to left, because it looked similar to japanese). use code link to read side by side. http://www.playtr.com/news/archives/Logos_Paragraph.jpg
Some i guessed with the best of my abilities by going with the flow of what is written. they are the highlighted ones. I am confident the big square is Logos because that is what the humans discovered; they are these symbols. use proper grammar, if you are going to send it to them. dont just put words on a line, you'll sound like a robot. it wasnt that hard for me, they gave us lots of the hints already. i'm very excited about the game, it looks interesting. feel free to use it if you want. just give me a little credit for taking the time to do this. |

The symbol for Logos is known and it's not the Phi ideograph. If you recall the original Benefactor Project disks, its the "vortex" emblem in the center. No one knows for sure that the Phi symbol means. |

Public forums. You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy. We must be cautious. |

I got pretty dang far into the logos translation, which is sitting next to me on a pile of sheets and the likes. I'd probably have gotten through it by now had i not forgotten and given up to better place my time. Good luck to it!

I submitted my entry over a month ago. I was only unsure about a couple, and for the most part, guessed right. I think I guessed one wrong though... so that'll suck.
Anyway, in one of the E3 videos of the game on youtube, Garriott does a walkthrough of the game. In one scene, he comes across a pillar with the Logos language on it and explains to the crowd what it means. The symbols on the pillar are identical to column A above.... so if you're unsure about anything, go watch that video. He also gave some translations of a few other symbols. I figured since that was coming straight from the horse's mouth, I could trust it. |
