Bus timetable!

#1 Post by giraffe » Fri Nov 14, 2008 5:44 pm

Not a game, or even a puzzle really, but I have just printed off a bus timetable and one of the pages is headed up:

Npoebz!up!Gsjebz

I'm not sure how this happened and at first I thought it was gobbledygook, but now it makes perfect sense. Can anyone guess what the other page was headed up with?

(It looked fine on the screen) :shock:

Well done to you both, we knew it wouldn't take long, particularly for Scurra.

Puzzle 2: Can you work out why the computer managed to scramble it, even though it was fine on the screen!! :lol:

duh! I should really have let the computer make the translation, not rely on my own typing!

I should really have ended with "@" as well, not "?"
