Put in the cipher: ;l;;gmlxzssaw

One purported result: Q acquitted

That makes no sense at all to me. I was a big cryptogram puzzle fan as a youngster. This alleged “cipher” has 13 characters, while the purported results at the site (including “Q acquitted”) all have only 10, or 11 if you count the space. How is this possible?

I think the cat did it!

Easy--semicolons are spaces. l=q, s=t. Those are the repeated letters. so:

q --q--tt--

Not much else can fit in the blanks but "acquitted".

I read else where that this was actually ASCII code representing the nuclear code in 1963 and the target was DC.
