Goodevening.
I've been working on and off on this vigenere-level.
9.5 I found the length of the keyword and because of the long text I ran it through the Geocoaching-toolbox and got the sentence.
This level I try to do myself, but I can't make it work.
I translated the explanation on vigenere and made a sentence myself to find the way, but I can't even get to my own keyword there.
I would like to share this with someone.
But I don't want to take peoples' time, so if not, that's okay, then I'll just skip this level . |

9.6 The key is the longer version of the title which actually explains itself if you write it in full - providing you use the job and not the item of apparel.
For 9.5 they key is the period in time in which the answer was probably made famous. |

Because the original text contains two sequences with 4 repeating letters (which indicates a keyword with ... letters), I was surprised by this quote. Maybe this sequences cann be used later ?
Following THO's help I got stuck on step 3 ? Does this one refer to say 2.5 FastForward (which i couldn't solve yet) or an written BASE-16 number
A little help would really be appreciated. |

I'm not sure what you mean by mentioning 2.5.
9.6 is based on the title which is not short for Dinner Jacket but a form of employment in the entertainment industry which spells out the key. |
