@aidanbestieamin #70: If you are so sure make it so. And please provide the solution here.

i know it might not make sense till you try the 3rd. also you can still switch letters from the same word and you could remove one of these steps

There are 12 layers to this puzzle, and i'm sure you could brute force them all but that would take a hell of a lot more than 2 hours. I think that there are some guidelines hiding in plain sight about what to use and how to use it, at various points between layers.

In hindsight, 1918 was a lot of things, and might have been a harsh hint. The whole thing is very doable, either by brute force or by the more incisive (but way easier to miss depending on your O.K) and fast way.

It's one of those things where there's an easy way and there's a hard way but the easy way is really impressive to have available to you and the hard way is harder but it WILL get the job done too.

So, the summary for anyone else who wants to comment, but is too lazy to read the whole thing: "It's Morse code." absolutely everyone on this forum knows that. It gives

So now everyone's stuck here. Including the main teams, which are my team, and @kiritolemon 's team. We do know it's probably encrypted with the enigma machine, but we don't know the settings. Might be 1,9,18, or 19, 1,8,...
"1918 was the year of the spanish flu". We know that too.

should be enigma or stuff, also another clue which i heard from the news, is that 1918 spanish flu has 500 million deaths @Pinito_the_Bulldog
