I'm on the road for work, but I'll see if I can have a look at this later. There are at least a couple letter groupings repeated, so there may be hope yet.

Have looked at the groupings, repetition etc, but my investigation has revealed nada! ( BTW, are you referring to QBP & JMO? Possibly THE? can't find a way to make that work, but will keep trying!)

D'oh! Always try the simple stuff first. So, what is the key word to this substitution?

Oh stupid me, I tried "wetops" in small characters in Mozaiq, not realizing upper/lower case matters. Great find, Toasty!

Nah, the nice find was yours. I just scratched it out in Notepad and looked at how the end of the alphabet shook out. I'm on a slow connection and it pissed me off when mozaiq wouldn't take it in lower-case. Went ahead and posted a reply on the IG forum.

Didn't mean to hog - I'll give eveyone a bigger head start next time. Smile

I kid - great job

Hell, I would never guessed that's how you figure the keyword to a substitution cipher. Great job everyone. Now to kill this Dan whoever.
