:
I just noticed something!
/ \ / / \ \ / /
\ \ \ \ / \
\ / / / \ / / \
\ \ / / \ \ \ /
Separate it into columns and you'll noticed that each column will have 3 '\' and a 1 '/' (give or take, some have 2 but it's typically 1).
I believe that the '\' represents an incorrect value, and the '/' represents a correct value.
We should divide the coordinates and the mess of letters equally by 8(?) and stitch it back together using the correct segments.
Then using the correct segments, we plot the coordinates on a grid, and hopefully decode the mess of letters.
I will begin by trying this on the mess of letters -- as it seems easier 
Edit: it started off strong but it fell flat on it's face immediately... |
Aww! Good try.
I still don't know what im supposed to put in the grid XD
