I've been running this through a monoalphabetic substitution solver for about an hour and no luck. I'll let it run all night and see if anything comes up

I feel like I'm looking at a Microsoft product key.

Quick question: Does the order in which you wrote the letters matter?
(IE. if you were to swap any arbitrary pair of letters, would the message decode the same?)

I'm sorry, but the encoding is not a one-for-one substitution cipher. Quote: Is the decoded message from a movie? No. Quote: How many words is the code? Hint #2: 9  Quote: this problem is not unsolvable give up ? So, it IS solvable?  And why give up if it's solvable?

Hint# 3: The coded letters are presented in the first post grouped together by fives. They are NOT shown grouped together by individual encoded letters.
(Note: I will re-group the letters if no one decodes this in the next couple of days, if everyone wants me to).

Another question:
Can the two lines be solved independently of each other?
Let unscramble() be whatever mechanism to unscramble your code.
Would unscramble(BEATZ ULFEM BAMPP ATEAE IOEFQ IXZAA RSUTE \n AUION JEUJA KEOMS AVXAR EOKLO VAIWO ETSI)
be the same as unscramble(BEATZ ULFEM BAMPP ATEAE IOEFQ IXZAA RSUTE) appended to unscramble( AUION JEUJA KEOMS AVXAR EOKLO VAIWO ETSI)

Quote: Can the two lines be solved independently of each other? The entire series of letters is all one code. If you figure out the encoding mechanism, you will solve both lines. The second line is not a key to solve the first line.

Ocala's code says "THIS IS A FUN THREAD". I should win! Just kidding. I have been studying everything I can find to solve this. I would have never known what Ocala's said without this thread. I love learning new things! Until this thread, I knew nothing about ciphering code. I will figure this out...or go crazy trying! However, right now, I don't even know what question to ask. LOL!
