Now that the contest is formally done, I shall begin declaring the answers!
Round one was easy, or at least I hoped it was. The code was merelyeach word being mangled so that it's letters were in alphabetical order.
Therefore,
fi ouy acn ader hist, ehnt dens a aeiprtv aeegmss hitw a eiltt fo 'eensv fhis' adn an aacltu aeegmss fo 'eigv em my eiprz or eels'
becomes
if you can read this, then send a private message with a title of 'seven fish' and an actual message of 'give me my prize or else'
Easy, hm?
The next code was a little harder, it's system was each word belonged to a different group of codes. One-letter words were moved one letter, two-letter words were shifted by two letters, and so on.
Therefore,
kssh mre! duh brx wjfid iru wtzsi wzr?
kh uq, xlir qemp yjxxf amxl b ytunh qh
'opzavyf hqfxx' dqg b tlzzhnl qh 'wfrjs ku
dzrrd'.
becomes
good job! are you ready for round two?
if so, then mail tessa with a topic of
'history class' and a message of 'ramen is
yummy'.
The next code gets it's own post!

Well here it is, the solution to the third and final code. This code was not entirely my own creation, the base code was used from an old prison code used for prisoners to talk to each other without guards knowing what they said, via tapping on the floor with brooms or whatnot. That code was something like this:
0 1 2 3 4 5
1 A B D E F
2 G H I J K
3 L M N O P
4 Q R S T U
5 V W X Y Z
You may notice there is no 'C'. That is because one letter had the be removed, and C was the easiest. Klokk, Kat, Jurj Jhief and so on. I took this one step further, by using the pre-existing code and adding mathematics. Each individual math problem (seperated by commas) worked out to a letter on the above grid. 11 is A, 43 is O, and so on. Therefore 52,43,3*11,2*6,3*8,11,44,2*3*3*3,31,11,44,2*4*4,43,3*11,34! 11,13,5+8 5*9,43,54 2*11,5+6,3*5,41 4*11,30+13 31,43 4*8,2*17 30+23,23 25,32,44,22 2*22,43,53,32,52 43,51 '31,30+13,3*11,41' 11,33,31 11 23,41,43,43,11,3*7,41 43,30+21 '44,22,11,33,52 12,43,30+13,31,33,41,34,2*17' equals 52,43,33,12,24,11,44,54,31,11,44,32,43,33,34! Kongratulations 11,13,13 all 45,43,54 you 22,11,15,41 have 44,43 to 31,43 do 32,34 is 53,23 pm 25,32,44,22 with 44,43,53,32,52 topik 43,51 of '31,43,33,41' done 11,33,31 and 11 a 23,41,43,43,11,21,41 message 43,51 of '44,22,11,33,52 thank 12,43,43,31,33,41,34,34' goodness in other words: Kongratulations! All You Have To Do Is PM With Topik Of 'Done' And A Message Of 'Thank Goodness' Once it's spelled out, seems pretty easy. Too bad only one person solved it... Anyways, I hoped the time you spent on these codes was fun, and hopefully I can come up with even harder ones next time! 34, 11, 45, 43, 33, 11, 24, 11!
