Would it be COOL to have a "Decoding the code forum?"

In light of all the recent levels of spying by the governments of America, the UK, Russia, and China. Wouldn't it be a neat idea to start a forum on codes ? I think so. I have placed here a code to start off this great conspiracy. Who can tell me what it means ? And this is going to get your brains into action because you have to be the detective in the room.

Here we go....

Ok... ok... it was easy, now lets gets some experts out here and start hitting us with code so we can start breaking it.

Are there even enough codes to crack to bother having an entire forum?

How about this one.


Nineteen years ago an eighty-four year old man had to speak twice in the ministry. His name was George, or, well, some people did call him that. He wrote down all of what he said and asked if you would read it. Did you?

Oh yes, it's endless. They could be word codes like the ones I just posted or numbers into letters, or just about anything. But you might have to have quite a high IQ to crack them because they're never what they look like at face value.

If you cracked it, you are famous here as the very first code breaker. If you know, it's ok to say what it means.

You can't start this thread until my "Secret Decoder Ring" from Ovaltine come's in the mail...

Ah unfortunately I did not crack it, I simply answered the question asked at the end of it haha, I believe to crack any sort of riddle such as that I would need some sort of variable to go by, that is just a sentence to me.

But you prove me wrong this is a great idea haha

Nice. I knew it was there, I just didn't see it right away.

I think it would be a great idea to start a forum on the OP's message. It would be a great asset to many of us, and nonetheless it would give everyone a little more sense of valuable knowledge on different types of codes, ciphers, etc...
So I say, Yea.. To thee.

Excellent ! This is what I'm talking about. You saw that the words were just words and the message was hidden within them. They did this in WW2 all the time. btw, you're the first code cracker here so far as I know so that title is rightfully yours.

Can anyone understand this one?



Barry read every action killed. The hill envied. Couldn’t overturn decisions everytime.

My favorite code is the Karizmov code. My PI is obsessed with it. He's not my PI anymore, but definitely left me with a love of codes. I think Futility Closet talks about the code, but the writer never uses the proper name. Actually, I'm probably in error using it now.
