You can find this fun quotation puzzle, to combat early dementia and senility in us baby boomers, in several daily publications. I challenge us with the best ones out there.
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.
Solution to our last puzzle. Simply scroll your cursor over the text while left clicking your mouse, and the words should appear.
CHEERS TO A NEW YEAR AND ANOTHER CHANCE TO GET IT RIGHT. OPRAH WINFREY
Today’s Cryptogram is from The Arkansas Gazette
That was quick
Well, I’m not going to celebrate the difference coming to this nation from the looks of things. Appropriate cypto though for today.
First three words.
Easy, one minute.
I’ll take “Obscure feminist writers” for $500, Alex.
Question: shouldn’t the “F” in the first name of the author/authoress be a “J”?
Kumbaya...
Vowels and word six
Way too easy!!!!
May have worked at one time but with ‘outside’ factions stirring the pot, kind of hard to go along with the author.
‘They’ have not only managed to put us all into our own little group, they have started breaking the groups down.
