Sweet mercy. I won! That's super cool.
Just so you know, I lost sleep over this last night.
I'll send you a PM with all the critical info for mail.
Thanks again for the super-stumper!
Cheers,
Chris

Wow! Way to go Bimmer! I started to try this one, and then I started to get a headache and decided someone else could do it. I'm OCD when it comes to contests, so I have to walk away from ones like this. You earned a prize on this one.

Jesus of Cool, I'm bad, I'm nationwide
Congrats! Certainly one you had to work for.

Thanks for all the congrats, everyone.
Honestly, I was doing what jlada was talking about while he was passing. (Thanks for the opportunity!)
Basically backed up from 90, 89, 88 ... to 9 then solved by the chart.
I would have never figured it out without the hint though.
EDIT:
I did notice that there were 4 letters the same. I knew that T's and E's were common, so I tweaked the shuffle to a T first and that was no good, but the E in the repeat worked just dandy.

He does. He used to sleep on a blanket on my couch. I decided he would be more out of the way if he slept in this little closet I have. I moved his blanket a few feet for about a week until it was in the closet. He has been sleeping in there for about 3 years now.
I solved it in just under a half hour.
My methology was to figure out the range, mode, median, standard deviation, and some other random factoids. I noticed the common reptetition of 31, which meant it was more than likely a common vowel (didn't help much). Also noted the +/- numbers between the number in sequence. This number allowed me to (generally) obtain the number of letters between the two letters I wanted.
I made two matrices in excel, and put in a formula for a +/- and pasted a few times. The final result cell was a HUGE formula to display the cells I wanted. Thank God Excel formula input allows clicks... would have taken forever to write.
I changed the simple +/- formula about 10 times. Ended up with some funky ass decoded strings until finally "my dog sleeps in the closet" appeared.
Bam solved.
Edit: Who's up for jlada's non-linear cryptography contest? *cricket sounds* ..... ya nevermind.

Brilliant!! But for all the smarts, you should have edited one more time.......you mean methodology, right? All this made my head hurt anyways...........especially Kelly's jabber!
This post took me a half hour to write!!! :sign:

While this was in no way asked for by me, I do appreciate the support:
And just so everyone knows, I received the prize today. All I can say is "WOW". switters has blown me away with the first contest I've won on this board. And to top it all off, there was more than a 5er in the box, so all is good in the world.
Again, thanks for the support (everyone), passing (by jlada), and the contest itself (switters). I am most humbled and have a lot to learn about starting contests, trades, and passes. I will read more, post less, and hope to make smart decisions.
Cheers,
Chris
