CIPHER KEYS
How to get the keys
There is only one way to get the keys. Everytime you spell Yahoo! (click the 'Special Yahoo!'s' link to the left to see how to spell Yahoo!, and what bonus you get besides a cipher key) with your blocks, you will be given ONE cipher key. The cipher key will appear in the chat box area and will look like the following
***Cipher Key: B= >6
What they are used for, and how to use the keys
The keys are used to decipher the Hero Code. There are 36 keys in total - each representing 26 letters and 10 numerals. As an example, if you are given the key B=>6, any B's in a code would be replaced with a 6. If you were given the key W=>C, any W's in a code would be replaced with C. An example follows -
