I can't quite figure this one out... "playfair" and "rnbquioi" have the same number of letters, so there should be a link between the two. In addition, each has a pair of vowels plus two other vowels (if you include y).

However, I couldn't find a specific correlation between any of the letters.

I'm assuming the letters in rnbquioi have not been jumbled and somehow correspond to a username on the site. However, I'm not of aware of any username that has a "ioi" letter arrangement that is eight letters long.... except my own, Aia, which is only 3 letters.

So, just for safety, I'm protecting myself- other people can work off of my thoughts.

*Hint-Hint*
Playfair corresponds to Playfair Cipher, such as the one used in the National Treasure 2 movie.

I tried this one out, but I'm not sure because he uses a Q which is usually dropped to make it a nice even 5x5 square, so I'm not quite sure which of the other letter he dropped to get the code. And since I'm not in this really I didn't feel like trying all the different combinations.

Sigh. That is correct, Sheogorath. To be fair, I'll let you all know that I dropped the J. Though now it's too easy. Oh well, I'll just think of harder ones later.

Thanks rocketman. Too bad I've been too busy to log on for the past few days for a while, then I couldve been an officer :( This one looks like fun too.
