Scioly Assassination 55: The Cup of Death

[fmtiger124]

atbash: The neglected nation of G
Atbashed, it is:
One time pad

Hmmmmm

I don't doubt you, but how did you get that? Also, i can't see the letters after Argentina and Portugal. Was that done on purpose?

Use quote, the picture size messed it up a bit

so:
Spain: A
Italy: G
Argentina: G
Germany: H
Portugal: K
Netherlands: M
Brazil: P

{zgyzhs: Gsv mvtovxgvw mzgrlm lu T} atbash cipher = {atbash: the neglected nation of G}
{lmv grnv kzw} atbash cipher = {one time pad}

Neglected nation of G likely means Italy since Argentina was picked but Italy was not
Italy in the Atbash cipher = rgzob

No offense but those are some fairly basic flags that you ought to know...

I ciphered the letters next to each flag and got:

z
t
t
s
p
n
k

I don't think it means anything...

[fmtiger124]

This might be a complete and utter fluke:
So italy atbashed is rgzob I put that into the one time pad as the message and Italy as the pad and got zzzzz

never mind lol I made a fail mistake

If you're wondering I had the cipher in encrpyt mode rather than decrypt mode

the neglected nation of g could also refer to North Korea, since they are in group G and lost 7-0...

List of flags in order:

SPAIN
ITALY
ARGENTINA
GERMANY
PORTUGAL
NETHERLANDS
BRAZIL

Not surprisingly, four of the countries are represented by officers. As a precaution I would protect EAST, who is the sole officer whose country is not represented. However- atbash first.

!!!!!! The Ivory Coast is in Group G!!!

[zyzzyva980]

The neglected nation of [Group] G- the one not put in. Nice catch.

[fmtiger124]

Now the question is what to do with that....and was the assassinator obnoxious and used Côte d'Ivoire rather than Ivory Coast

[ophiophagus]

Then what about the letters next to the flags? Could those be part of an identity clue?

[zyzzyva980]

I would protect EAST, then work forward with the one-time pad and whatever else is there in case that's not right.

EDIT: Lol, I was thinking the exact same thing about the Ivory Coast (I'm not even going to try to spell its other name)
