Competition: [Gladius] Analyze This

Specifics

Each week, an enciphered message will be posted on the Gladius message board (a link will also be mailed out). A new cipher will be used each week of the competition. The objective is to discover the hidden message and email it to Scion before the next message is posted.

Each cipher should be possible to figure out by hand without the use of advanced math or computers, but that doesn't mean they will be easy!

Incorrect answers will be discarded. The first three correct answers will be awarded crescents based on the order the entries were received.

Awards

Fourth level crescents each week of the competition.
