I had an idea of the cipher to use. I made a lot of inconclusive attempts, procrastinated too much and finally decided on Friday around 9 p.m. to write a time-saving tool. I injected the result into my decryption program, but posted a few minutes after the deadline and lost 5 points.

Alternatively … ‘with a flash of inspiration I managed to update my software to crack the cipher right after the first deadline, gaining almost all the points and a real buzz!!!” Glass 95% full and all that.
