Seeing as this was copy and pasted from an attempt on Azrael some time ago, might as well copy his response.

Okay let's break this down shall we. This pin attempt is based in both binary and morse coding.


The morse coding translates to this

A PINNING SENSATION COMES OVER THE CHAMPION. THE AGENT OF THIS CHANGE WEARS A MASK OF CRIMSON.


It's repeated a total of 3 times making the pin count 9


The binary coding is translated to this

The Crimson Mask pinspins the champion to the sky. He summons a storm that takes the champion on a crusade of rain pins and lightning nips. The Crimson Mask lets a command exit his wind pipe that condemns the champion to be pinned to a satellite after being pinned by The Crimson Mask.


It's also repeated a total of 3 times, making the pin count 15


Pins = 16

Then there's the written text

I will come face to face with you, champion, and I will call upon forces that exist only beyond the cracks of your own limitation. Break constraints and shatter a thousand omnipotent stages, but only if you can survive this minute and a half long attack which will be recorded and displayed to the observers in a "youtube" "video" for convenience. If the observers watch closely enough they'll actually see your tiny body being shifted on the grid of solution and up into place for the purification blast that every last inch of your body is in dire need of. I speak of the things to come much like I speak of the things that are. Their only difference, seconds on a dial that can be sped up as easily as it was made up.



Go on Loverboy.--. .. -.tell these mounds of flesh and bone that a whirlwind is coming for them and there's nothing they can do to but stikke holde fast spiss bolt via tapp. It won't come easy; Stift a befestigen to that change; call in reinforcements. Tell them!


.--. .. -. is morse code for pin


'stikke holde fast spiss bolt via tapp' translates to 'stick stick forward bolt through the drain' on my translator, but it suggests that 'bolt' and 'drain' could also mean 'pin'.

'Stift a befestigen' translates to 'Attach a pin'


Mr. Lane is not looking very responsive after suffering that first attack. The Crimson Face delivers a Hurricane Kick to Mr. Satellite with such speed and fury that he is able to smack his foot across Mr. Satellite's face about 10 times before descending from his spinning airborn stance. The Crimson Face throws a spear that catches Mr. Satellite by his shoulder. COME HERE! HADOUKEN! Mr. Satellite is pulled right into the path of an incoming blue fireball! Mr. Satellite is stunned, allowing The Crimson Face to hook him in a spinning piledriver straight to the Earth's core which he holds for the pin.


.--. .. -. The place you always were comes back to you, young ones.

.--. .. -. is morse code for pin

011100000110100101101110 is binary for pin



Pins = 11

Then there's 8 pins in the picture of the guy with the big nose.

3 pins in his hair

1 pin in his eye

1 pin on his belt

1 pin inside the 'e' in the word 'face'

2 nip in the bottom corners of the belt ends

Adding this all up I come up with a total of 37 pins in all!
