Nice. I sent another email and in the reply they indicated that they barely finished the cipher and we'd already completed it. And that the next round wouldn't be so easy. So, I'm definitely looking forward to the next round and however difficult it may be.

Second line...

Solution

Substitute to letters to get yqzh fvq vuiph fzr dy whu lznvua. Then decode using vigenere with key "find" to get "time and space are at our grasps"

Where did you come up with the key?

Put a spoiler over my best attempt at an answer since it contains the key for the code.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
I started with the second word and first guessed it was "the". So I ran the vigenere cipher to get the key required to change "the" into "fvq". It turned out to be "mom". So I went through common words that contain "mom" but nothing seemed to decipher the whole message. So I started over this time guessing that the second word was "and". Running the cipher from "and" to "fvq" gave me the key of "fin". I then tried to decipher the entire message using common words that contain "fin" and finally came across "find".


I don't know if that makes any sense at all, but that's how I do it.

Impressive reasoning. Hope you and I get picked on the same team! Wink

Yeah, I signed up. I'm The Juggernaut. Did we figure out teams yet?

Nothing has been said about how to pick the teams yet. Should we line up like in the school yard?

I chose the team name Scorpions and emailed it to the PM. There's 8 people listed on the site so we have 4 per team. I guess players can choose which teams they want.

I think you are supposed to choose us taking turns with MattCatt.
