"TYIR ZILU HAWHMA BWL'R NAIMECA EC RYIR ER EC HWCCEDMA"

If you figure out the code,try to follow the coded instruction without giving away

the method of decoding (even in spoilers), so that more than one person can try it.

E, 7

I think your response covers all the bases.

Big tick in the sky!

you discovered a new constellation.

All locations I intended are on the earth.

Did you plug in that quote and find the page with the special tool for plotting the coordinates?

Once you find that page, it should give you a little latitude to put the rest of it together.

The hint was a letter substitution code.

The plaintext was "What many people don't realise is that it is possible"

If you plugged that exact quote, with quote marks, into a google search window

you found yourself looking at a page that included a site for converting latitude and longitude to a global position.

So, each pair of numbers pointed at a different city in the world:

REIS (TURKEY)

POND (MISSOURI)

WETH (SUDAN)

PRIME (PORTUGAL)

NUMBARI (NIGERIA)

OFE (GHANA)

VOWELL (MISSISSIPPI)

My intended instruction was "Respond with prime number of vowel(s)"

If your response had a prime number of vowells, (this sentence has 29, for example), then you got it.

It would take a stretch of the imagination and some luck to understand, exactly, this instruction.

(The pointer landed right on top of OFE so it was difficult to see the spelling -- it may have looked like OR.)

Some responded with a vowel and prime number (like E,7), and to me, that's a success.

Some covered all the bases with both types of responses.

Great job folks!
