Default Crack the code.

I put this in my sig and I thought I'd get a lot of pms with people that know the answer, but appearently not, just try to figure out the code, it's not that hard.

The last symbol is a period, like I originally thought.

This took no time to solve. It's just a font for windows, Wedingbins or something werid like that, just printed out capital a-z and lowercase, and took 2 minutes to convert.

Default RE: Crack the code.

of course there is LD... there are cryptograms in the newspaper every day. i solve them about 90% of the time. same thing, except the cryptograms are letters in place of letters, whereas this is symbols in place of letters. but, i've done things like that in Games Magazine...

what makes it alot harder to do is that its very short. most cryptograms are 2-4 sentences, and that allows you to solve it because more letters and words are used.... but its definately do-able. also, the difference in the two Ts would make it very very hard... as the constant rule is that 1 letter only is 1 other letter, whereas this has capital letters different from lowercase.... it'd be very hard to solve. if it were longer, and all one case, it wouldn't be.

Each letter in the above phrase gets converted to another letter of the alphabet. It's a 1-to-1 conversion, that is, every instance of a certain letter gets changed into the same letter.

No, it's not. Look in Microsoft Word. "Webdings" is different than "Wingdings" and the font was "Webdings"
