Too easy! Yuri is right Well done

[sstimson]

Temped to enter a joke riddle for now. How long before Yuri post a riddle?

Well it been a week and so far no riddle so I'll fill in for now


itzed ocedy elpmi sxoot wsive docus ihtts

ok?

if no guesses by the 16th then the answer will be given and a new one created

[Kogorou]

Oh that's a though one.
Unscrambling sentences is hard for me XD

[Nix]

The words are suspiciously shouting out 'Caesar code' but it doesn't work too well... :/

[Pmofmalasia]

Well all the groups of letters have 5 of them, don't really know what to make of that but might help someone else

[Kogorou]

Maybe it's a sentence where every word contains five letters ?

Let's read it backwards.

stthi sucod evisw ydeco tooxs imple dezti

itzed ocedy elpmi sxoot wsive docus ihtts

Let's read it backwards.

stthi sucod evisw ydeco tooxs imple dezti

...of course. Well done
Your turn for a riddle.

Let's read it backwards.

stthi sucod evisw ydeco tooxs imple dezti

...of course. Well done
Your turn for a riddle.

close enough but still wrong

First the code

itzed ocedy elpmi sxoot wsive docus ihtts

then as someone said read backwards

stthi sucod evisw tooxs imple ydeco dezti

st (Codes for spaces) thi s-u (code for space) cod e-v (code for space) is-w (code for space) too-x (code for space) s imple y (code for space) deco de z (code for space) ti (fillers) {really it spelled backwards, sorry about that}

becomes this: this code is too simple decode it

spaces are handled by starting with the letter z and going down the alphabet. The code is put in groups of five

making the code

this code is too simple decode it

write it backwards

ti edoced elpmis oot si edoc siht

add the space code

ti z edoced y elpmis x oot w si v edoc u siht t

group it in to groups of five

tized ocedy elpmi sxoot wsive docus ihtu

last group needs an extra character so add a space code (s)

tized ocedy elpmi sxoot wsive docus ihtus

and thus the code

[MDavid]

Omg i messed up the order. I guess that's because I was trying Caesar decoding in different groupings before that.

Expect the next riddle soon.

Spoiler: Step 1

If you don't need these numbers just put them in bin.

Spoiler: Hint

It was a pun.

Spoiler: Step 2

Add zero to all numbers. To the left. I tell you how many times.

Haha, you don't even need 2!

Spoiler: Step 4

You know what to do now.

Step 1: Convert to binary
Step 2: Add zeroes to left
Step 3: Convert the numbers to dots and dashes
Step 4: Convert from Morse code
