Apr 24, 2014 at 21:16 comment added vignere_solve trying a key-length of 14 almost gets me there but I'm still thinking I'm missing something.
Apr 24, 2014 at 21:00 comment added vignere_solve Hi, with you hints I was able to get a little further but something does not seem right. I'm currently at the following key: "48,1,10,32,32,4,8" And the text is slowly starting to look like english text: Examples: "CAME FROK THE 2.W. WHERE..." or "IN SNDIA IS ALMMST SEGN AS A" But it seems that if I "turn" it on one side, another part of the text always gets scrambled, I'm thinking that maybe the keylength is not correct, a little hint would be great :)
