R(ed) - Proper position and character, W(hite) - Proper character wrong position and B(lack) - Wrong position and character.
As for 'double/triple/...' characters, if one is on the right position and the other ain't, then it counts as one R one W.
Hehe, starting to play a little smarter and strategic, I see!
Here's what you got out of it:
2*W,14*B

4*W12*B
That would be a smart strategy (there are a few better approaches, but that one is better than nothing ;))
Btw. there are articles on Mastermind that proved one needs less than 5 guesses on the original game to break any possible code ;)
It'd be considerably more because of the additional characters and slots, but hey, I have confidence in adambisers luck and skill!

something similar to this: 42YN-Y9GU-GT8W-7KGU (via random.org)?

I'm not Fujek (who seems to have gone off-line, by the way ;-P ) but I can say with 100% certainty that those codes are not 100% correct. ;-P

Interesting idea, let's see how it evolves.

Well, the rules for this are here
I have to make the official guesses, but you are all welcome to try things out by redeeming gift codes. However, I don't think we're anywhere even remotely close to knowing the code. I have to start figuring out some positions and that'll help you all out.
As YogSo says, Fujek's offline now, so we'll have to wait and see if any of the letters in my guess are correct.
