Here's how I decoded my message, with the help of a
this program linked to earlier:
First, I made took the message "fjpgopogn fgn xpbdgn euecejoecgn fpgn bepgn xpsgpxfjkgn" and put it into a cipher.txt file.
I assume the message is pig latin, so I undid the pig latin in the encrypted message by removing "gn" from the end of every word and moving the last letter to the front of the word. The result was "ofjpgop f dxpb ceuecejoe pf pbe kxpsgpxfj" which I also put into the file.
I use the program to solve these simultaneously, since the use the same substitution and I may have mis-translated the piglatin.
