I found the LPs and UCBs by...finding them. First ones in Sol which I thought were bugged then ones in Pleiades.
Some needed Cannon as the associated keyword or local news was missing or to explain what it was when I had deciphered it.
Some needed Cannon from start to finish, I just followed,
But at some point, somebody did solve them all with very few hints. They are solvable. Its not a single player game where ever player gets to solve the code and launch the nuke or whatever. The idea is that we work as a community to spread the info and piece together the puzzle. If I can keep up with it Im happy, If I cant I ask for advice or help and see if I can keep up with it, if not I ask someone to explain or record it afterwards.
its either fun or its not, if its not fun for you, dont do it, just wait, whatever is announced will be announced at the end of the puzzle, at the same time it would have been with or without the puzzle.
