The End of #24
I’m sorry to say it, but I’ve got to reveal #24. I’ll try to break it into steps so if you want to see little bits of the answer and then try and go on your own.
Okay.
Okay so we know what the rebuses stand for:
[ Do not look a gift horse in the mouth ] and [ A piece of cake ]
Now for the next part – the first thing you have to do is:
[ Number each statement starting from the last letter and working backwards, be sure to count spaces as well. It should look something like this:
h t u o m _ e h t …
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 …
etc. ]
Next you need to [ apply a letter to each fraction in the list ]
so then we get a bunch of letters like so:
M S L L S S R M N G L U L S
A _ O C _ _ I _ E I F F _ _
]
[ Mr. Mingles is full of class ]

Mari says you’re close on #25, so I’ll let you finish it up this weekend. Also a big thanks to Nadine for her awesome post! Maybe I can convince her to do another. 😛 I’m out at the Penny Arcade Expo tomorrow, but I’ll be twittering from there all day. Anywho, see ya then.

I saw your name in RED’s credits, Novel! Also, you misspelled “you’re.” Thanks for the puzzle breakdown! 😀
I know this has nothing to do with your blog post, but when will the September newsletter be out?
@1st anon – thanks for the grammar check, I usually miss one or two. 😛 It’s fixed now. Also RED is an interesting game for me, as I sometimes moonlight in scripting for the Dossier series.
@2nd Anon – We’re hoping to have it out around the 18th or so. But, no promises. I’ll probably preempt it on the blog in someway if I can. 😉
