Re: A code I made up

Is the key there? Is this a monoalphabetic substitution cypher or a polyalphabetic one? Or is it a transposition cypher?

Answer all three (in order), and i should be able to break it.

Very funny. Actually, there are some names that sound a lot like that...
My friend's favorite Russian "name" is "Hoodja Nika Volikov". Say it fast, and you'll see what it means (it's a question).

Re: A code I made up

What's a Volik and why are you nicking one?


Boy let me tell you what:
I bet you didn't know it, but I'm a fiddle player too.
And if you'd care to take a dare, I'll make a bet with you.

Re: A code I made up

This is the program that I used to encrypt the message posted above. The interface is pretty self-evident, so no trouble there.

Re: A code I made up

Think in British English; "Who did you nick a bollick off?"

If this isn't clear enough, sorry, I won't go any further into the details...

Re: A code I made up

I tried a simple decryption system (similar to the one used in the program), and all I got was what seems to be a series of store names...
