+Lovejoy and Tinker Posted September 6, 2010 Share Posted September 6, 2010 (edited) How do u use the hints I use c geo app on my android and the hints are all random letters what do I need to solve them? I would think there is an option in the software to reveal hints, which are encrypted by default. But I don't use that application as it is very very very naughty. Apparently. If there is no option in the software to do it for you then you have to use the same code as is on the cache page. i.e. ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ ZYXWVUTSRQPONMLKJIHGFEDCBA Edited September 6, 2010 by Lovejoy and Tinker Quote Link to comment
+dfx Posted September 6, 2010 Share Posted September 6, 2010 ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZZYXWVUTSRQPONMLKJIHGFEDCBA actually that's not the right code. the right code looks like this: ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ NOPQRSTUVWXYZABCDEFGHIJKLM A<>N, B<>O, C<>P, etc. Quote Link to comment

I was just, erm, trying to conceal the true cypher ?? Nope, you won't buy that will you? I made a mistake. I guessed. Sorry. Haven't used that code for so long and don't even see it on my cache pages now and was too darn lazy to go and find it on another browser. Sorry for any confusion, I have slapped myself with birch twigs. Twice. Which was actually quite a pleasant experience I do know someone who has used that code so much (I think their paperless GPS doesn't decode automatically) that they can read the encrypted hint as if it were normal text. Impressive. Me, if I have to use it, I take ages over it, one letter at a time. No wonder if I am using the wrong code Quote Link to comment
+tsnyder88 Posted September 6, 2010 Share Posted September 6, 2010 this is the key right off a cache page Decryption Key A|B|C|D|E|F|G|H|I|J|K|L|M ------------------------- N|O|P|Q|R|S|T|U|V|W|X|Y|Z (letter above equals below, and vice versa) Quote Link to comment

+dfx Posted September 6, 2010 Share Posted September 6, 2010 the code is always the same, it's called rot13. but some cache owners put "creative" hints that aren't immediately readable even decrypted, such as spl itti ngwo rdsi nran domin terva ls, or sdrawkcab gnitirw. Quote Link to comment
