Sorry, perhaps I'm being thick but I still don't understand.

Perhaps if you explain how <:>|_#=Teacup I might have a better idea?

I think it's along the lines of:
|_#
looks a bit like a mug with a handle.
<:>
Apparently looks like a teabag?

I confess I don't get these at all myself - I clearly have a defective brain when it comes to visual clues! Laugh | :laugh:

The rules are simple:
1. Pick a word
2. Replace every letter with a sign, where the same letter must be replace with the same sign
3. Add a hint

There is no logical/mathematical relation between the signs and the letters...

Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this?

<:> -> Teabag
|_# -> Cup

With the Hint, it seems it was kinda "obvious"

The game is basically about choosing a word and obfuscating it:
E.g.

Stuff -> Could be 57_}} or $7v|| or whatever you like, yesterday we had an equation[^] you could even do that or something else cryptic.

It's up to you. The hints are given to describe what the word could be, it is about guessing, so there is no restriction on how it must be clear that the word reflects in the obfuscation.

Another example : face = (8-) is more the "symbolic" way to go, with the hint "everyone has one".
