Okay, I'm just going to narrate this as I attempt it. First off, I am going to try and solve it as an anagram. Hits si dhar. I'm pulling out plenty of wordsâ€"how, wade, win, dead, etc.â€"but I'm not getting anything coherent. I'll try some substitution ciphers. Nope.
I'm better at visual puzzles.

Wechtlein, do you actually know the solution to this? 'Cause if we find out you don't and you're just yanking our chains we will rip your arms off and beat you to death with them. 
So far, to me, it doesn't look like a pure anagram, or letter substitution code. Letter ordering looks like it might be important, but not sure. Looked at it for about 10 minutes yesterday. So far no luck.

Yes, I know the solution. It took me forever to come up with the encoding mechanism. Here's a few hints:
1)Substitution will get you nowhere. ;)
3)Be wary of the number of words, lest ye be lead astray... :devil:
hehehe... keep trying.
