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.
From The Arkansas Gazette
4 minutes good
3 minutes excellent
2 minutes exceptional
90 seconds superior
1st 4 words by grammar, shared letters.
Next to last word.
7th word, 4th word, off to the races.
Stop! Now that was fast...and the hint clever.
Yes the first 4 words are what you think they are.
The clue, of course, is that those two gals are Jewish?
Sure, why not? :-D
A day without TODAY’s CRYPTOGRAM is a crappy day from the start....
