The way it works is a letter stands for another letter. For example: AXYDLBAAXR is LONGFELLOW (does not apply to today's cryptogram).
Beware, the game is very addictive. If this is your first time, don't be intimidated, you’ll be solving them all within a few days. If you’re stumped, take a break and return to it.
PLEASE DO NOT post the answer in general comments, but DO post your time and how you made out.
You can certainly send your solution to my private reply, or if you need a hint for today’s Cryptogram ASK THE GROUP FOR HELP!
I suggest printing these out and work them on paper. If you need a little help you can copy and paste it to Hal’s Helper below.
You can then work on the puzzle without using pen and paper, but I recommend that you do NOT look at the letter counter.
One last request. Feel free to post a fun or clever clue, the more tangential to the quotation the better, but please don’t put the actual words of the quote in the clue.
Today’s Cryptogram is from The Arkansas Gazette
Words 13 and 16 are the keys
Quite difficult. Yes, words 1, 13, and 16, gave a way in.
Words 1 & 4.
LOL! Perfect.
word 11 gave me fits
excellent
good one today
Took a bit of playing around and I can honestly say I do NOT ‘know’ the author.
As usual, when in that ‘predicament’, will look up author and can honestly say I realize why I don’t/didn’t recognize.
I guess that line makes sense in the right circumstance etc but seeing as born in 1961, can’t see how the ‘target’ audience understands a word of it???
2 minutes but I don’t understand the idea behind the quote ...
I got it but I don’t get it.
