But dammit, there are what I can only describe intentional tricks to mislead me. I tried to do this without cheating, and I filled in as much as made sense, only to find out that the characters were not consistant.

Character 4 and character 6 in the top row are CLEARLY different! Yet they both represent the same letter! That is intentionally misleading to use 2 characters for the same letter. I know (now, after finding the solution) their significance, but that was a pretty tough thing ot figure out.

I would have struggled with the significance of the flags for days. I guess I should stick to programming and leave teh cyphering to you. ;)
