Me, decoding it, one letter at a time: "This...Is...A...Cae..." Oh, I get it.

 

What about the letters X, Y, and Z in your cipher?

 

Rules 1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 were broken.

The alphabet loops so they become A, B, and C respectively.

So, it uses modular arithmetic.

Yes, since there are a finite number of letters in the alphabet.

I may be unavailable for much of the rest of the day.  Two games that I carry are releasing sets now, and I need to unbox the orders that will arrive later today, send preorders, count inventory of remaining cards, and adjust my listings to reflect that they are no longer pre-sale items, but regular sale items.

Johannes Vermeer painted during the Dutch Golden Age, a period of great prosperity in the Netherlands characterized by humanism and a new focus on secular themes in art.

Did I mistakenly indicate that any previous posts followed rules 2, 3, 4, or 5?

Congrats on finishing one exam.

No, you did not.

 

The Dutch Golden Age was also a time of unprecedented religious freedom, in which many oppressed religious groups migrated to the Netherlands for shelter.

That's one of the only things I remember from AP European History. I always paid more attention to the cultural history (art, literature, philosophy) than to politics. The only things I remember about political history are the French Revolution, the English Civil War, the Glorious Revolution, and Otto Von Bismarck (German Unification).

I don't recall much from my European history class, either.

I remember philosophical movements the best, since I found them interesting and wrote several essays about them.

All right, after 8 hours of manual labor, my friend and I combined to unbox roughly 2100 booster backs and sort them for inventory.  What did I miss?

 

Nothing?  Nobody posted?  Okay, then.

Sorry, yesterday was quite busy for me as well. I'm also running out of ideas. 😕

Today is turning out to be quite busy as well.  I hadn't mentally planned out how long everything would take.  I'm currently taking a break in the midst of scanning images, sending the nearly 100 pre-orders that came in for these two sets, and updating listings.

 

I noticed your more serious comments on some other threads, and there are things I'd like to say, but I can't put a timetable on when I can take the time to type out well-formulated responses.

I spent most of Wednesday working on a charcoal piece for a class project. And now, of course, it's back to school for the final days before winter break.

I'll be signing off for a bit more than 24 hours now, for reasons that may be obvious to you.
