I've been looking into the bifid cipher that Manco mentioned earlier, and it seems that it can be done with two, three or even four grids of letters. Seems possible, but really you need each letter to appear only once for it to work. I've been trying too see if I can use the slashes in some way to specify which letters to remove, but no luck there.

Can anyone else think of a way?

Also GlitterPanthers last comment about reading the numbers made me think maybe the numbers should be spelt out in the grid somehow, i.e. FOUR instead of the number 4. Like the word seventythree is.

And just writing this I notice seventythree happens to have 12 letters, and there are 12 coordinates in each set. Drawing at straws again here, but maybe that's a sample result of one set of numbers to give us a clue for the other sets. I'll see if I can get anything to work out for that
