(The layout of the code, the types of characters used, and the title of the puzzle are all clues to breaking the code.)
Umm.. I have no clue, so I'm just going to start stating the obvious (sometimes when I do that, something helpful to the solution pops out at me).
First, only the letters A and E are used, and every digit except six. The letters are not to the left, right, top, or bottom of either a number or a letter every time; that appears to be random, or at least not useful. They are arranged in a 7×5 grid, with the following frequencies:
A: 4
E: 3
0: 1
1: 1
2: 5
3: 3
4: 11
5: 1
6: 0
7: 2
8: 2
9: 2
Just to check, that does add up to 35.
The hint says that the title is significant somehow, as well as the grid of letters. It contains 10 letters, 9 of which are distinct.
If the clue in the title is simple the fact that this code is tricky, it's unnecessary. I'm still lost..
Anyone?
