On the Subject of The Teal Button

Letter’ rip!

Take the serial number characters, and split them up into three pairs of two:

  • The sixth and fifth serial number characters as the first pair.
  • The fourth and third serial number characters as the second pair.
  • The second and first serial number characters as the third pair.

Convert any letters into their alphabetic position. (A=1, B=2, ..., Z=26) Then, take each number, and repeatedly subtract 9 until your number is between 0 and 8.

The first value in each pair represents which column in the table below you have to use. The second value represents the row. Find the letter found at the intersection.

Then, with the number written on the button, move this many squares down from the discovered intersection, wrapping around to the beginning of the column if necessary. The three letters found at each new square is what needs to be submitted.

To change the letter in the display, press the button when the last digit of the timer is equal to the alphabetic position of the letter.

To submit your answer, press the button when the last digit of the timer is a zero.
