    Re: JayJay's Playground

    Ok - so it's a simple 4 letter displacement 'Ceasar' cipher............

    It took about 30 secs to decipher. The first clue was the single letter.....'D' - a bit of a giveaway..........

    Except the final message was a 13 letter displacement.

    I called up my friend from Bletchley Park who dusted off their Enigma machine for the last message as it was a bit trickier....

    I don't think you can spell "Ga Dx Df Da Dd Gd Dx Va" properly...

    No it is a new cipher.

    The answer to the binary I posted was that the message simply read 'IS THIS ANY HARDER'. It was a binary conversation followed by an 8 shift caesar cipher.

    JayJay worked this out and replied with a binary conversation followed by a 19 shift caesar cipher. Her message was 'WOW BUT GOT THERE'.

    JayJay followed again with an anagram which I replied to. Anagram reads 'Then try this on for size matey'.

    The line of letters 'GD DD DF etc' is the next ciphertext.

    Ummmm as pointed out by David Frankin I have one of the ciphers wrong, so I now trying to work out how to edit my post Anyway still should be able to get the message even with one cipher out.

    If the hint means nothing to you, it's probably not worth bothering with, to be honest. I was just curious to see who'd jump for the bait.

    Just in case my hint might be misleading you: pq=851, e=5 is not a hint about what "pq" and "e" encode to, it specifies the parameters to a reasonably well known encryption system.
