My NINTH cake day is in a couple weeks. Insane.

Enjoy some presents on me!

If you wanna thank me send some cat pics or tell me your fav SG memory.

Lvl 3, ends May 21st.

EDIT:

Hey all! At least 166 of you got the puzzle, congrats :)

The puzzle was a substitution cipher with the key being the "Dancing Men Cipher." All that was needed was to match the dancing man to the corresponding letter. If you hovered over the dancing men code picture, it said "sub cipher capitalized" to help indicate that all the letters needed to be capital. The flag is apart of the cipher and represents the end of the word - not a capital letter or otherwise. The capital letters were the five letters needed for the giveaway url.

Here is some info from boxentriq about the cipher:

  • The Dancing Men cipher originated from the Sherlock Holmes story "The Adventure of the Dancing Men" by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.
    In the story, Sherlock Holmes examines the occurrences of the dancing figures, and realizes that it is a substitution cipher. He then cracks the code by frequency analysis.
  • Not all letters appear in the book. Sherlock Holmes fans have tried to find a pattern for many years. A Danish scholar, Aage Rieck Sørensen, found a hidden pattern in the cipher and added the missing letters (and numerals).
  • Text is written without spaces. Instead, each man at the end of a word holds a flag.
  • Dancing men code is a simple form of monoalphabetic substitution cipher.

Thanks everyone and see you at the next puzzle!

Happy Early CakeDay!

My favorite SG memory is Touhou/JustArchi's ARG event

it was very shortly after I joined, and I got excited about being part of this community as a result. I made some great friends whom I still fondly think of to this day. It was just a l;ovely thing to live through, and really stretched my brain. As a group (allowed by the rules) my friends and I cracked every puzzle.

I believe this is the first time I was unable to solve a puzzle. Too bad I don't have more time to devote to it. Thanks anyway!

Happy Ninth Cake Day!!! A favorite SG memory is hard to choose because of so many good experiences here in my short time :) Experiencing the first holiday giveaway AVALANCHE was fun. And starting to recognize users by their avatars or name. The first time figuring out a type of puzzle is nice! Plus being introduced to jigidi through SG; their community is just as awesome.
