The Code

The code is made up of EIGHT major words. The challenge is to decode the WHOLE message.

The Rules

  1. The contest is open to anyone who is interested and has access to a cellular phone. Being a Pisay alumnus or student is not a requirement.
  2. Interested parties must REGISTER to gain access to the clues.

    To register:
    Text PISAY<space>REG<space>name,age,gender(M or F),address
    (Pisay alumni must append PISAYAKO at the end)
    and send to 2299.

    ex: PISAY REG John Doe,33,M,Matalino St. UP Village Quezon City PISAYAKO
  3. The clues:

    Word 1 will be given as a giveaway along with sample clues.

    Clues for Words 2 and 3 will be made available initially through the text messaging service. A new set of clues will be released for another word every two weeks starting July 5.

    To retrieve a clue, texters must text in PISAY<space><keyword> to 2299.
    A list of available keywords may be obtained by sending in PISAY<space>LIST.

    Final Anagram Clue:

    On the day of the PSHS Alumni Homecoming, Sept 6, an anagram of the COMPLETE message will be made available (along with its keyword).

  4. Additional clues:

    If you're really stuck on a word, you can ask for additional clues by keying in PISAY<space>HINT<space><word number> and sending to 2299. If enough people ask for additional clues for a word, then we may be able to release more clues.

    Note that no team member may be directly approached for clues or hints. Doing so would disqualify the participant.

  5. Winning:

    To submit your answer,
    key in PISAY<space>ANSWER<space><your answer> and send to 2299.

    The first THREE to send in the correct, complete message will win prizes.

    Winners will be announced during the Alumni Homecoming.
