This is sort of a simple puzzle and I'm curious who can decode it.
First individual sends:
Eight Diamonds, Queen Hearts, Seven Hearts, Eight Spades, Seven Spades, Four Clubs, Eight Clubs
The second individual responds with:
Nine Clubs, Ten Diamonds, Nine Diamonds, Six Spades, Five Spades, Ace Diamonds, Five Hearts
The first individual then sends:
OJPLFWIOGZMIJBCGLFYVOZPJRVVWVFJTMXATUAXG
The second individual ends the conversation with:
VIXMWUWAIHYEJWMESXQBVNVXNKCV
What was said by each?
Have fun with that.

Re: Code Breaker
Something for me to puzzle over for a bit during my next debridement.
It looks like a variation of a substitution code, I'll have to see how hard it is to come up with a working key.

I think I may have figured it out partially. Enough to test a premise later this weekend, anyway.

Re: Code Breaker
Alas my other research has kept me from attempting to crack this. Perhaps in another few weeks.
