A lovely message~

[Tomato150]

A new notice flies on the crossroads message board
'To all the lands of the smart, I present you a challenge.'



(( This would be written in lovely ink of the medieval times, I'm waaay to lazy to do it even remotely medieval though.~ ))

'This code contains a message for all those who wish to reap its rewards. If you would also be kind enough to keep your findings to yourself, that would be lovely.'

'Good luck.'



OOC: This code is actually breakable, it is hard of course, but it works. I would also like it if you found out the code, you tell no one of it, to keep it a challenge for everyone else thanks.~

Also, if your character has a good brain behind them, and you may be stuck on the code, I'd happily send you the code if you had enough justification IC'ly.~

And . . . This would not lead to anyone in particular, VIA handwriting or anything else . . . So do not meta this please. The whole code works off not knowing

It says "Be sure to drink your Ovaltine."

 

[roopot]

usually a code like this would have a cipher

 

[BarbarianGaming]

Usually most codes are supposed to have a cipher...And also

@OneRedBlock

 

[Tomato150]

Of course they are, but not all cases that codes have ciphers. The cipher was deliberately left out

 

[NIAH]

Do you give us your word that this is decipherable without the cipher?

 

[Tomato150]

Do you give us your word that this is decipherable without the cipher?

Yes, I give my word, and using techniques such as frequency analysis, you can crack it

*rubs hands together~*

 

[Somnastra]

No, but, my dilemna is this: Som probably wouldn't have the patience for it anymore, and Kelta would never see it.

*will solve it anyways*

 

[Gaby]

make an excuse for Kelta to solve it.
someone drags her outside to talk to people.

she ignores all the people to look at a puzzle.
: D

 

[Squidziod]

It's hard to crack with letter frequency, since many of the characters occur the same amount of times but I'm going to try anyways.

 

[Squidziod]

Yeah.... this is going to take me awhile if I do get it at all.

 

[Tomato150]

Its not meant to be easy, but thats half the fun.

Yeah.... this is going to take me awhile if I do get it at all.

When I was making it, I came up with something like this
30 seconds to decode, 30 minutes to make, 30 hours to crack.

The first two seem about right from what I have done~

 

[Tybalt]

Does this pertain to what we talked about a week or so ago?

 

[Bayta]

There's no way Bayta could solve this. XD

 

[NIAH]

I can't solve this. D: Niah the character surely can't. And Aracena could have solved it once upon a time, but not in her current state. But I will not give up! I will not be deterred! *Sits with serious determined thought face*

 

[Sankera]

My reaction

 

[SobekRa]

Whenever I see this I first read "A lovely massage". Can't unsee what you have seen once

 

[Tybalt]

I would try solving it, doubt I could but it wouldn't matter Cus in RP nine of my chars has a way of knowing :c

 

[Tomato150]

Just curious, who is actually trying to solve it OOC? I have been contacted about some characters figuring out the code, yet only one person that I am aware of is actually getting around to cracking the code OOC'ly. Would just like a heads up with who is actually giving it a shot!
