Fun with Baseball

Peter and James are twin brothers. They share many things in life. They look alike, talk alike, even think alike although Peter is said to be the better athlete and James the more intelligent of the two. Because their parents don't want them to fight over their possessions they buy them matching sets of everything from shoes to toys to cell phones. On an otherwise ordinary day Peter goes to a baseball game. After some time, James gets a text message from Peter on his phone. To make James think harder, he coded it even deeper than last time 543913136*8205481135273181135*543912a619*4a142e61582 0 1114a141eo2582054854394a1447*923273182e6154a1447*54394a[s ub]14[/sub] 1eo251113a3125482e6154a14472e6154a14*82054811353a3123a3[ sub]12[/sub] 9232e6152731834*9232731854394a1447*82054820144a 14 923548111820*342e615113512a619*5439820*12a6191111eo25 0 What was the message and what was James' coded response? PS: Those spaces in the sub tags aren't there when I edit my post, so don't tell me to fix them because I can't delete them.

Wow. I didn't realize you were going to use the characters to that extent. This seems an interesting code. One thing I must point out: there are letters in your code. Did you do this on purpose?

The decoded message sent was: IF THEREIS NOTANYTHING WRONGINYALHONGON THELLWORDWRING THENWHAT DOES IT SAY ? coded response 54811353a3123a312 2e615*9232e615273183a3122014 Note: There is a misspell in the original coded text. On the fourth line near the end 2014 should read 1135

| Correct! Yeah, it's really hard to keep track of all those numbers. It took me like three days to encode them all... (I don't have a very long attention span.)

Note, on the spaces in the [sub]s, that's because the lines are too long; YaBB will cut that in pieces, straight through tags and anything. To avoid that put spaces somewhere where cuts won't hurt.

How is Denis's answer, which decodes to "hello world," a response to "If there is not anything wrong in yalhongon thell word wring then what does it say?" I don't have any idea what "yalhongon thell word wring" means. Edit: Never mind, I just figured it out... remove the letters and rearrange

I think it is probably a message came from aliens trying to warn us that if we pollute so they will come and take our planet
