Spoiler (Rollover to View):
I gather from the other posts here each pair of lines in the poem hints at a type of cipher, and we're supposed to put the name of that cipher in the url. I've tried every cipher I've heard of, and every type of cipher I could find in the wikipedia. The only page I've evern gotten is the "Do you think I'm going to just GIVE you the answer?" page, which I got for several of them, like caesar and substitution. So either the ciphers it wants are REALLY obscure, or I'm doing something wrong.


When you get a page which says "Do you think I'm going to just GIVE you the answer?" that means your egg is correct. Also if you look at the title of that page it will tell you your egg is for which two lines.

 		Yeah, I was under the impression that you guys were getting additional clues from the egg pages, that's why I thought I wasn't finding them. I am now missing the "frogs lend" egg and the "a bit more than ascii" egg.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
I'm pretty sure I'm looking for a type of 8-bit encryption for the last egg, but so far nothing I've found has worked. Also the poem seems to imply that Caesar is the victim of the "frogs lend" egg, which makes me think brutus, but that doesn't work either.

Mods please delete this post if I have given away too much!


Yes, please delete this! I'm glad all I saw was something I already figured out!

If someone asks you for an answer feel free to send it to them. But please don't just blatantly post it here where it might ruin the fun for someone.

Look, it clearly said it was a spoiler for that level, if you didn't want to view it, you didn't have to roll over it. If you had a bit of self control, you wouldn't have needed to see it at all.

 		@VprDmd- I think you are wrong about the key for the Gronsfeld. It is my understanding that a Gronsfeld key would have to be a min. of 2 digits. Check this site http://www.trincoll.edu/depts/cpsc/cryptography/gronsfeld.html for information on how to find the key in a Gronsfeld Cipher.

 		For the vigenere key, think VERY literally, even more literally than you are thinking.

For the gronsfeld, you'll actually be looking for a word, one that relates to the egg after it. You won't be using the cipher in that egg.

 		Very literally there is a key in my hand? So is it key?

I don't quite grasp what you are saying about the gronsfeld. I won't use ceasar for the cipher?

Something to do with a victim of ceasars will name another cipher?

Ha. Ok. Nice key that was...

I agree with HyperBorea. Plus the fact that we were asked not to post answers by the creator of the riddles.

Think I did the gronsfeld right and I get this:

BRUTUSDFHDHMDEWDGJDFJDFFMJHDFIDIFDGK

No Ceasar ciphers work on it though, However I did notice that all the D's were in wor 2. That mean anything?
