  • Following on from the thread videogamesm12 made, I'm going to make this a more interesting challenge. Here is some text, figure out what it says and follow the instructions.

    Apparently one of these words is correct:

  • The other clues that I've given in Discord:

    1. The only clue I'll give you is I completed a single action on a tool to convert my text into what you're reading.
    2. The only other clue I will give you is there is a reward (Listed in it) and it equates to actual monetary value.
    3. If you know what I've done, yes it'd take 2 seconds to reverse it
    4. And to confirm, I've not used any tool(s) which would be private / custom made / not publicly available to create the challenge.

    yep this is the answer, it's Bifid cipher, and the key is "totalfreedom". (if it's a little off maybe there needs to be a little change in the encryption key idk but its readable enough to get the sentence from there.

    Changed the title of the thread from “Crack The Code” to “Crack The Code - 20 Dec Challenge”.
  • The Solution

    frizzydoggy was indeed correct, the cypher I'd chosen was the Bifid encoding with a keyword of "totalfreedom" however they neglected to read the instructions.

    The original message in my first post actually read

    Quote

    Hi Folks, just wanted to make this post to see if anyone could decode it. If you've got this far you should already know what the keyword was (Or else congrats on brute forcing it). I'll give 25 coins to the first person to decode it and tag me on discord saying "Cyber UwU"

    Good Luck!

    With the message I posted earlier today reading

    Quote

    Well Well Well... It looks like none of you have managed to decode my message so far, which is a bit of a shame really. I was expecting you all to have done better (Especiallly you Video).

    To make this a bit more interesting, I'm going to offer a Discord Nitro Gift for the first person that manages to decode my last message and follow the instructions.

    Once you do decode it, please don't share how you decoded it with others, as I'll make a new messager (Which if you did this right you'll be able to decide) to explain what the runner up prize is going to be.

    Good luck <3

    Given the instructions weren't read and the prize wasn't claimed without spoiling the code I'm going to null and void this one and will generate a new one with different challenges.
