"Lliannanshe" makes an excellent point:
"Regarding anagrams of Drooble's gum, Snape's name, etc., JKR has
already done the anagram thing with "Tom Marvolo Riddle." Don't
y'all think she's creative enough not to do it twice?"
I have tried anagrams w/ droobles best blowing gum and have all but
concluded that that's not the way to decode it, because there are so
many possible ways to turn it around. I agree that JK might not use
the same device twice.
I've also tried cryptograms. And I've wondered if Alice could add a
mark here and there to change a letter, or to indicate a word break:
putting a line next to an "o" would make it an "a" or a "p" depending
on where you put it; a slash mark in the middle of a word could
indicate a new word break.
I also wonder if there's something else on the wrapper besides what's
already printed on it or what Alice could write on it; without this
information, we may not be able to figure it out.
I'm almost at the point of letting Luna figure it out, because my
brain is scrambled eggs.
