Morse code password patterns

Morse code is a method of transmitting text information as a series of long and short audible tones. Each letter of the alphabet is represented as a different combination of tones, and so it is possible to use Morse code to spell out words purely with tones. We can use the Morse code alphabet as the inspiration for our password pattern, using the combination of tones relating to each letter to translate to a pattern.

Below is the Morse code representation of the entire English language alphabet. You can see that each letter has a unique combination of short (dots) and long (dashes) tones. Alongside each is the Password Coach equivalent shape.

To convert Morse code to a pattern, we’ll translate a dot to a single hint selection, and we’ll translate a dash to two vertical selections, as follows:

With this method, you can now devise your password pattern based on any short sequence of letters. Here we map out a pattern from the word LIMA. Of course, the individual shapes that the letters make can go anywhere on the game cards - in this case they could easily squeeze onto the same single card, but we've spread them out across four to be super-safe.
