Just got this. The encrypted part was all on one line, I added the line breaks for the forum.

 		I just received an email similar to Wishi-san's, except it looks like they are personalized for each user because my codes are different. Here it is:

Shouldn't Lusid's email have been from schuler then?

now i know that i will get flamed for this, but how do i un-encrypt this?.. i read that Grumpyboy said it was a Viggy...but whats that?...(don't laugh too much...you guys were new once too..lol)...and is there a place with a compendium of programs or anything to help someone like me?...you know coding/decoding programs?...or anything that can help a newb?...i look on the forum here and couldn't find anything that would help me out..(maybe i just didn't know where to look)..but if someone could help me that would rock. Thanks

 		Hello Spike,

I use this site for Vinegere cyphers: http://islab.oregonstate.edu/koc/ece575/02Project/Mun+Lee/VigenereCipher.html

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Your message's key is cehhyied and it reads:
thanks for your call now that im at my desk and had a look at the site i see what you mean i think its best for everyone if we just begin with a clean slate for norbac theres no telling who might be involved on a public forum like that and now that our security measures are finalized our confidentiality policy will be much simpler to enforce i appreciate the international issues that this could have raised its wonderful to see this collaboration is already supported on both sides thanks again and i look forward to your arrival

FYI, I got exactly the same message at the email address I used when I signed up for the Regenesis game. It's different than the address/SN I'm using on sciencesucks, just for clarity. They are posting encrypted messages to that board too.

As far as keys, I guess you just ROT the names of the researchers at NorBAC. Take a spin through the player tutorial to learn about it.

But who is Schuler? I guess he's doing some extra-curricular activities for Caroline.

Spike,
I am new as well, but using lusid's website , I did the following to get the key as I got the same code as you Smile

Go to lusid's url, then copy and paste the encrypted text in to the box marked ciphertext.

Then I typed 0 in the number of keys to return and clicked break/find keys, then i copied and pasted the short keys in to the key box under the ciphertext box one at a time and the key turned out to be the 2nd short key on the list , which is ROT-10 for morrison.

That is how I did it , other experianced members probably did it differently.

Trallyus

Edited to get rid of the key so others don't get mad
