It certainly feels very close!
I've gotten a bit rusty at filling in the sheet, but it comes out 43/402, which is good but not as good as the last one ;)

Interestingly, sometimes the letter b is written as B and as b.
What could this be related to? (09-08-2026, 07:52 PM)ololololo wrote: You are not allowed to view links. Register or Login to view.Interestingly, sometimes the letter b is written as B and as b. The upper part is more or less looped, or the loop is smaller and less visible, but it is the same letter, based on the Greek sigma σ. Because of this second loop, it looks more like a small B.

![]() As I mentioned before, the author designed his cipher to look like Latin in order to hide the fact that it isn't actually Latin

I doubt that it looked like Latin to 15th century people who could read

If I was making up a script or cypher, I expect I'd base it on scripts/languages I already knew (perhaps even subconsciously in parts) rather than inventing something completely from scratch. |
