Break the code!

I thought I'd begin a thread for code breaking (as I specially enjoy doing them in times of stress)

So, here goes.

Can you break:

Quote:
vgzs zqd xnt fnhmf sn cn snczx
For a hint,

'on air'
converts to
'nm zhq'

I'd expect it gets very easy now.

Your clue is too complete, "what are you going to do today".
Have you heard of the Voynich manuscript? http://www.voynich.com/folios/

Re: Break the code!

Naturally, the first code is supposed to be ultrasimple.

Now try

snevo nepo ni taem neerg

This is also very simple.

Re: Break the code!

Jay-qu: Does A equal H both to and from normal and encrypted?

Re: Break the code!

encrypting A -> H, hence decrypting H -> A, but like english there are exceptions to the rule.

I made this cypher up and it will be very hard to break - Im not sure if I want to give the answer up at all, but if you solve it I will tell you if its correct. hence this could be potentially frustrating
