    So there's this thing, that has a secret message. This thing may be Corkus related, or it may not be, who really knows. It means something though. It'd be great if the community could figure it out.

    Have fun ;)

    Incentive: whoever actually cracks the code, they will be rewarded an item they truly desire (no mythics) when Corkus is released, by whatever means.

    More incentive: If what you post is relatively on the right track, I'll give you something from my bank.

    Hint #1:
    apr ihbgxyv rgka jbap gpv jrvhcfx apr ehag pvzq bz bjh smgmlzf. bm qg plzr ypdr hy ubkl trmamel, aprkl ebnsl ox hvbmome ypdr elbgxy kunus.
    Hint may be useful.

    Solution #1: Hint #1 was a vigenere cipher. The key was "hint".
    the pattern ends with two because the last word is two letters. if it were five or more letters, there would be another five letter chunk. @Blizzardgale

    Hint #2:
    ... --- -- . --- -. . / ... .- .. -.. / - .... .- - / ... --- --- -. / - -- / .-- .- ... / - .... . / ..-. .. -. .- .-.. / .-- --- .-. -.. --..-- / .- -. -.. / .. / - .... .. -. -.- / .... . / .. ... / .-. .. --. .... - .-.-.-

    Solution #2: Hint #2 was in morse code. The solution is:
    SOMEONE SAID THAT SOON TM WAS THE FINAL WORD, AND I THINK HE IS RIGHT.
    @AlexisPlay

    Hint #3: tt te eaeyinvupoh puAscellfrmh diimi teylo
    Have fun Cryomeme.

    Solution #3: It's a columnar transposition. Enter meme and it gives you the key of 4231. It comes out saying just about: "Distinctive multiple of three may help you". @Cryomeme
    So to wrap things up, with the release of Corkus' changelog and the formal release date, it clearly defeats the purpose of this cipher.

    The purpose of this challenge was to experiment with the community and really observe the discussion. This experiment also yielded some interesting results:
    1. The community hates secrets
    2. The community likes ciphers
    3. The community wants more of these, because you guys get free loot from my bank

    To all those who were interested, the two letter word at the end was TM, and which by implication, I'm sure you can figure out the gist of the rest of the cipher. However, I will not disclose how I came up with this code.

    Edit: You can still get the reward by solving the cipher, even though the message is useless.
    Edit: You are allowed to solve this in teams, but each team member will receive an item from my bank instead of an item they truly desire.

    Oh wow. Is this like.... a type of Cipher? Maybe a Caesar Cipher? Vigenere Cipher?

    If this is solved with a team can the reward be split into lesser quality items?

    Does it involve a different language? Like French, Spanish etc.

    Does it use a cipher widely known or did you make up the code yourself?

    Is there a coincidence that most of them are 5 letters?

    It is not a Caesar Cipher. I got a feeling it might be a Vigenere Cipher though. But I got no idea what the key might be.

    Maybe the Key is "corkus"

    Do you guys think this might be a simple letter substitution code?
