[+LadyBee4T]

We WENT caching, lol! A 4 step multi was completed today, but we still can't figure out the puzzle

 

Alms, alms for the poor *holding hands out in a begging posture for a hint*

 

I found a 4 stage multi also, but I had to phone a friend on 2 of the steps. I couldn't find any of the stages, just the final!

 

Can I have extra bonus points for the phone a friend? Pretty please?

[+sillygirl & jrr]

what have you tried as the key?

I'm guessing youv'e tried Moscow & thirty-two.

I've tried keyword moth, with keyword in the gride, with keyword not in the grid, with cipher text vertical, with cipher text horizontal. Don't know what else to try. If 32 is significant, and you placed the cipher text vertical, 128 / 32 = 4-letter keyword.

 

Heck, I don't know. I think I'll be going to bed again without getting any farther.

I've tried using that on each "solution" I've come up with, since my solutions have all been gibberish! Unfortunately, that has only resulted in more gibberish.

When Vanity Fair came up yesterday someone mentioned mirrors, as in a vanity mirror. Look in a mirror - words are backwards.

 

If we assume either of these are correct - moscw and mscow - could they instead be wcsom or wocsm? Not sure if anyone tried them that way, or for that matter any of the keywords backwards, but I did scroll the thread earlier today looking for all the ciphers mentioned and did not see mention of it. I still only have a partial list of the ciphers. High School Musical 2 got the better of me tonight.

i like the idea of bacon's cipher, which is simple and easy. i tried breaking it into consonents are A and vowels are B, and i get

 

gcalw

cyaac

rabga

basically gibberish, enless it is encoded further.

 

just a thought.

 

i tried using this with MOSCW on either side, but the letters duplicate too much, so it doesnt work i dont think

I know it has something to do with 3 and 2.... It was a tip to me to examine the roman numerals in 32, XXXII, which is a group of 3 and a group of 2, so that has to be something, just clueless as to what!

Crack the Ciphers

by Jim Gillogly

 

Here's your chance to crack ciphers similar to those Bletchley Park's codebreakers faced during World War II. Below, we present three ciphers of different levels of difficulty, from easiest to most challenging. Cryptanalyst Jim Gillogly created them using the Playfair, Double Playfair, and Double Transposition ciphers, respectively. In the opening paragraph for each challenge, we link to instructions regarding each cipher, which should help you along. The instructions link to hints, which in turn link to each cipher's solution.

 

Over a fortnight in November 1999, we offered a contest to see if anyone could crack any or all of the three ciphers. We deliberately made the contest short to give viewers a sense of urgency similar to that felt by the codebreakers of Bletchley Park. In the end, during those two weeks, no one succeeded in cracking Ciphers 2 and 3, and only four entrants managed to break Cipher 1. (See the Hall of Fame to learn who the winners are, how they went about cracking the cipher, and what Jim Gillogly thought of their procedure.) We hope that the level of difficulty will only encourage you to try these challenging ciphers on your own time. Good luck!

 

Cipher #1

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

To: Col. Tiltman, Bletchley Park

 

This message was received by an intercept station in Scotland. The frequency and format indicate that it is a most urgent message from one of our agents who landed a week ago in Norway. His controllers have been unable to read it. Although it clearly uses his backup cipher, the Playfair, the keys assigned to him do not work. We cannot reach him before his normal scheduled transmission in two weeks, so we urgently request that you attempt to decrypt this and let us know the contents. In case it helps, he is carrying materials to assist a previously dropped team in their work regarding the Norsk Hydro facility at Rjukan. His recognition code should appear in the message: It is "beware ice weasels." If he is operating under duress, he should include the phrase "red penguin frenzy." He will use "STOP" between sentences and "END" at the end.

TFLAB FFZCY FUUFB GXXXX

 

Playfair instructions

 

Cipher #2

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

To: Col. Tiltman, Bletchley Park

 

This message was intercepted yesterday at a listening post near Dover. Its frequency and indicators suggest similarities to previously broken communications intended for saboteurs in Britain. Earlier messages in this format have been in English using the Double Playfair system. They used "STOP" between sentences and "MESSAGE ENDS" at the end. Unfortunately, we can make no further guesses about the content. The earlier messages have occasionally re-used Playfair squares; keywords used recently include DUNDEEMARMALADE, YORKMINSTER, BRIGHTONROCK, and BLARNEYSTONE. Previous messages suggest they are planning a coordinated sabotage effort later this year, so if you could crack this within a fortnight we would be most grateful.

Cipher #3

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

To: The Coders of Grendon

 

Ladies:

 

We received the attached message yesterday from agent Madeleine. As you know, her situation in Paris is precarious, and she has had to carry her wireless set with her everywhere. This message may have been sent in haste, as we have been unable to decipher it. Based on her poem and schedule I believe she should have used MAHATUNDILA and CULLATINDILA as her double transposition keys, but these do not result in a correct decryption. Please try the usual variations -- keys in wrong order, columns interchanged, one key left off, and so on -- and let me know as soon as possible if you find the solution. If we cannot read it within a fortnight, we must ask for a retransmission, which, of course, will increase her risk substantially. No undecipherables!

Jim Gillogly designs and implements cryptographic software. He recently made headlines for solving a cipher on a sculpture at CIA Headquarters in Langley, Virginia, and he also designed an attack on the Enigma cipher that can be executed without knowing any plaintext. (Wartime cracks required some knowledge of the text of one of the messages in the day's key.) Gillogly earned a Ph.D. in computer science from Carnegie-Mellon University, is a recent past president of the American Cryptogram Association, and has sung in Carnegie Hall with his chamber music group.

Yeah. That was my take on it too - no second decryption. He said no key but he didn't say that the alphabet in the square wasn't scrambled or shifted in some way or even reverse order. I tried reverse order and that didn't work. So, I'm stumped again!

[+SCBrian]

Hints from Moscow 32 to date:

 

Using a Caeserian Shift Cipher, the first hint translates as:

"We of peaceful London City have never beheld—and please"

That is the opening line of Chapter 32 in Vanity Fair.

 

****

I'll make some points which shouldn't be considered as hints.

1- The answer has absolutely nothing to do with geocaching.

2- Some of you are on the right path. Keep on going!

3- The game isn't Identify the Moth... It's solve the puzzle.

****

The next hint:

the cipher has been named lex parsimon iaej

(lex parsimoniae (Occam's razor)

****

There is no key in the grid! No second decryption is required!

The tip was more to just convert your roman numerals to a number.

[+bluecherry]

Well got up to try again and I have tried the alphabet forward, backwards, and even vertical. It all came up with giberish. I also tried it with MOSCW, and MSCOW. I have no clue at this point but will keep trying.[

Well this is our third day and my husband and I are pretty much at an end. We have tried all the deciphers metioned. The one that we are pretty sure it is I can not get it to work.

I think most people are using this, which makes sense since the cipher is composed of these letters.

 

 

MOSCW

 

MABCDE

 

OFGHIK

 

SLMNOP

 

CQRSTU

 

WVWZYZ

 

 

Now the question is do we have it in the right order? With the ADFGXV cipher, you put it in alphabetical order, so it would be CMOSW instead of MOSCW.

 

 

With a Playfair cipher, you wouldn't end up with pairs of letters that are doubles (like MM or CC) So that makes me think the "Vanity Fair" reference isn't to the Playfair cipher, but more to the "mirror" aspect, just like the picture of the moth.

 

 

 

Just rambling

[+GPX Navigators]

Not so rambling CnJ - kind of where I have been.

 

Funny Mr.Exlporer. A chuckle well needed. The posse is cirlcing. Hmmm - is that a hint moscow32 - circling? I'm probably just seeing things in the shadows.

 

I will say one thing - there are some pretty smart folks on this forum. I clearly need to learn a lot more about ciphers and such. This has been a great education so far but I need to wrap more of what's left of my brain around this. I need a good cipher for dummies book.
