Rubix is a veteran riddle solver so he shouldnt find this one too difficult :)

Someone please elaborate for me: Are we supposed to know the show Lost to get any of these riddles? I mean, the one with the Korean letters I can read/understand (I speak Japanese/Chinese/Korean/some German) but I don't know what kind of answer they're looking for here.


Anyways, back on topic, this one's still giving me issues, haha. I'm not getting any words no matter how I move/spiral around the board. I'm assuming this is a letter-skipping cipher of some kind.

About korean, just write what you see and not numerical! Then you solve it.

About tabula rasa, you don't have to see this episode, the solution contains 2 words and the last one is a word you definitely know, the first one will make sense when you see it.. but you might not know it.
and no letters are skiped when reading this :)

remember Rubix, things dont have to be read left-right or even right-left ;)

Believe me I've read every direction I can think of... left/right, right/left, up/down, down/up, spiral, gapped, patterned, wraparound, snake, diagonals, backwards diagonals, etc. Must be missing something obvious.

lol I found "forgivably chandlers" but it's totally wrong, haha.

Maybe another hint could be that after I filled in the solution, I added up the rest of the remaining letters in that corner<- well thats another hint :)

Managed to figure it out -- had the right idea but was... doing it wrong, haha.

Not every letter is used, by the way.

Man, now that I know how to do it, I am surprised the answer didn't just jump out at me. It's RIGHT THERE, lol.
