What was the result? Was your patience rewarded?
ReplyDeleteWould like to know also!
ReplyDeleteThanks for following up, and apologies for not commenting sooner.
ReplyDeleteI checked the remaining keys corresponding all the way down to a phi value of 502 (I believe).
At which point I decided enough was enough on letting that program run. It ran a full year.
I did begin another run at the D'Agapeyeff cipher approximately the same time these comments were posted. Now that I have some additional free time I can write up the hypotheses.
I haven't had a chance to fully test it yet, and I may submit it to the Cryptogram in order to get some more interest in this cipher. I still maintain it's a solveable, polybius square + transposition based cipher.
