I've discovered that there are a few of us out there, who can't start the day without doing the daily Cryptoquote or cryptogram.
You can find this little fun word game in several daily publications, unfortunately they are copyrighted so we can't use them here.
If anyone is interested in starting a club, we can take turns making one up and posting here daily. Just drop me a line that you're in.
The way it works is a letter stands for another letter.
For example:
AXYDLBAAXR is LONGFELLOW Here's one for today: Clues B=E and R=Y
CYB MASCYBS XAGNUASQ RZP GAK FZZN, CYB MASCYBS MZSUASQ RZP ASB FLNBFR CZ TBB. --ULKTCZK GYPSGYLFF
Beware, the game is very addictive. Don't be intimidated.
If you can solve this under 8 minutes you're good. Under 5 minutes is very good. Under 3 excellent. Under 2 minutes, exceptional.
Got it! I had other things to do today. I probably spent an hour or two on it. Fun!
Go ahead and add me too please.
Also the hint about a letter staying the same was an excellent start.
