time to decode this gibberish.

Yeah, I'm having trouble with it. I've noticed little things like "cn" and "nc," which suggests letters that can make simple words in either order...so, I tried "n" and "o" so that you get "on" and "no," but then it does funny things elsewhere in the sentence. :(

edit: Also, I've tried two cryptogram solvers, and they're completely stumped by this sentence.

Yeah, there's that problem, too. I've had zero luck.

Anyone else around here have any bright ideas?

maybe its somethimg to do with the capital letters? noticed how some words start with a capital letter , but then we got PLEpa which has 3 letters capitalized.

my 1st assumption is that PLEpa is the code for the next GA, absolutley nothing to back that up.

i honestly belive that this simply means its a Substitution cipher , but i dont think its in English due to "Dc cn rw xvwrkdb nc" . too many 2 letter words back to back.

so its a Substitution cipher of a unknown language.

So looking at Justarchi's profile, he is from Poland. might be a good start?

ok , a polish sub cipher , thats a start

There's a single quote at the start of one of the words and these are definitely not used in Polish :/

What ever the method is, the first bit looks like it should be "Hello people!"?

Tried to use the Vigenère cipher assuming that the start is "Hello people" but it didn't yield any interesting results...

how am i supposed to solve a substitution cipher when i dont even know the language used?

I believe the spacing may be there to throw us off, though not sure. A hint to this could be bddb 'r which could either be 's or s'. Neither has helped me thus far though

Or maybe there is some keyboard shift with ROT? Though it led me to nowhere as of now.

I actually agree, I looked at all the palindromes in 3 & 4 letter length and couldn't make any sense of them

With what was said above, there is actually an simpler method.

No rules!

The text uses a Caesarian shift with n = 17.

"Salve viator! Ut te in omnibus et ideo mirabantur. Quod autem non sit qui suus 'iustus est iter tuum principium, ad intimum animum, quod ludos secula iudicandum esse prefixit. Sit perceptivum, ut notas, quae vobis occurrant, ut non veniam utile altius quid reconditum in aliquo puncto. Nunc omnia opus est scire GCVgr, et off nos ire!"

This is in Latin so use google translate to get the info you need :)

I used n = -9
Isn't there more than this though? I got here earlier today, but what seemed to be the code isn't bringing anything up :/

Yes, I though 9 is the correct answer. It was my first try really.. you know

Thanks for leaking it. I would never have guessed that since I've never seen a puzzle that would require you to manually look through all of the possible deciphers of that cipher, but I guess I need to add it to my arsenal :O

Group puzzles tend to include awkward brute force combinations that would be unreasonable for a single person to pull off but apparently always to seem to work out when enough people are trying simultaneously. This is a good example since it's not impossible for one person to try 20+ variations of a random cipher, but it sure would be demanding. In an ordinary puzzle you'd usually lower the bar a bit by hinting at the correct variation or the correct cipher from the beginning (and not having the output in Latin to begin with).
