Not sure if it's more complicated than I'm up to working on, or embarrassingly obvious (probably a little of both). Either way, I'm stumped on 5.

Hmmm. I'll let Chingon field that. I will say, it's really obvious when you realize it.

Yeah. That's what I'm on, too.

Maybe you can number these, Chingon, so we can avoid giving away hints when referring to them?

I think I'm only one ahead. And I'm not going anywhere.

Some help for the first two:

#1:  [spoiler]If you want to do this the "old fashioned" way, think ciphers.  And think about ancient Roman dictators.  And remember that a good way to break a cipher is to find the easy-to-identify letters. If only there were some way on the Internet to easily find phrases...[/spoiler]

#2:  [spoiler]First place is the only place. Something is missing. What's in a name?[/spoiler]

Edit:  not stuck anymore.
