Hello all! Say please, how you solve it, how you convert this - ╬╚,╬°%_┴°°╟%═╧/╟ ... to letters? Thanks!

hi @pianist1989m there's instructions in the README:

The next clue is "I've designed you a beautiful strategic position" hinting at a "beautiful" -> "beaufort" cipher, where as "One for one, four for one" hints at the encoding. one for one, four for one -> 1 for 1, 4 for 1 -> 1141 -> IBM EBCDIC 1141 encoding

You can use cyberchef to convert it to the vtkv string

Hey @Naddiseo how exactly we should convert in cyberchef? EBCDIC 1141 won't give anything tbh
