First character should be a 9, rather than a C?

l decided not to go with a quote, this is just a random sentence.

Thanks for the contest slav. I truly do believe it was clever. I know that Lars and myself would have enjoyed spending more time on it, before you gave it away. I am just swamped with work, and have been for over two weeks (100 hour weeks, no doubt).

It doesn't feel nearly as good breaking these codes after it's been given away, as it does when you've worked through it.

For the first half of the code (the top half), use the grid he posted on the previous page in alphabetical order. For the second half of the code, use the grid in reverse alphabetical order.

Then you have to "zip" the code together (top, then bottom, then top, then bottom...) I believe that after you use the cipher, you get

EIE O OG IHAQOE HSI UTARNO ETNE

read it top, bottom, top, bottom and you get

Oops, I mistook the capital "I" for a lower case "l", it's the font's fault. Sorry!

Let me know if you're interested in the Marks, and if yes, PM me your mailing address.

slav - I appreciate the offer, but just hold onto them. Come up with another one sometime, and when someone earns them, ship them out!!

Thanks for the contest! And looking forward to yours (if I have time!) tzarmarko!

I enjoyed reading this series of posts. I laughed out loud 4 times when the poetry was flying. Good contest but too tough for my brain. You are not alone LTmets44!
