Irc Challenge

This is an irc challenge. The challenge is to decode the text listed below. Decode the text, and display the code you used to decode the text. The code with the least size wins. This challenge will go on for two days.

xzm blf tfvhh dszg gsrh rh?

Hint: The key lies inside the alphabet. This is a complete sentence.

xzm blf tfvhh dszg gsrh rh? = ءئة لامب فبراا يسئل لسقا قا؟

code

ctrl + shit <arabic keyboard>

lol, the code actually says something in english. Try again.

Yes, I can guess what this is *hint hint* ( but I had to use a pencil and paper to make sure lol).

Thx for giving me sth to think .... if only you could make me coffee as well

P.S. Yeah , I know. My post is irrelevant as I have no code to offer but I just wanted to tell Warrior that he should have put a longer ( not that easy to guess, let alone figure out) sentence.

lol, I wanted to make a simple one for people to do, but yes. You need to make a code to decode the text since this is an mirc challenge.

151 byte non-regex version:

alias c var %i $len($1),%r | while $mid($1,%i,1) { %r = $+($iif($v1 !isalnum,$v1,$chr($calc(219-$asc($v1)))),%r) | dec %i } | return $left(%r,$len($1))

69 byte regex version:

alias d return $regsubex($1,/([a-z0-9])/gi,$chr($calc(219-$asc(\t))))

I'm not sure if regex is banned from challenges here like it is most other places, so I've done two versions

$c(xzm blf tfvhh dszg gsrh rh?) = can you guess what this is?

$d(xzm blf tfvhh dszg gsrh rh?) = can you guess what this is?

Even though regex is used in mirc this challenge is to make your own code. Great work with the first code. One more day, people.

lol, I thought there would be more entries than this about now. Is it too hard, or something? Are there anyone else working on this, or has everyone given up, already, lol?

Nah .. alot don't do the mIRC challenges. When I get time, I'll get around to trying it.

I tried, and failed. I gave up. lol

Awwwww

Just kidding, lol. Here is another hint. Well, I'll just go ahead, and give it away, lol.

a = z

b = y

c = x

d = w

........

Now, with this hint can anyone guess what needs to done to decypher the code, and implement it into an alias?

Man, I wish I was into this irc coding stuff cause I'd so win this one

The IRC Challenge is over. This challenge was extended to a total of 4 forums in the hopes of getting alot of people involved. However, there were just a total of 2 entries . The winner is Hixxy from Techgear for being the least in size...

alias c var %i $len($1),%r | while $mid($1,%i,1) { %r = $+($iif($v1 !isalnum,$v1,$chr($calc(219-$asc($v1)))),%r) | dec %i } | return $left(%r,$len($1))
size: 69kbs

Congradulations, Hixxy

Cheers That was the 151 byte version though.

I think more people would've entered if they knew how to translate the text. Don't let it put you off trying more
