I was looking to see if I could find any of my old 'super secret' doodles, and I managed to locate one. Unfortunately, the method of encryption I used is largely based on the individuals memory of what the original words were, rather than a process that can be reversed. This makes decryption rather tricky for anyone other than the writer since there is no one-to-one correlation between the letter and the word it represents. It also makes it nearly impossible to decipher the designs that one made when they were ~10 years old and forgot about for nearly 20 years.

The arrangement of the numbers seems to exclude an alphanumeric encryption, greatly simplifying any possible encryption. Also, this more closely resembles a modern day teens phone text, or possibly a memory aid, similar to what I have seen some students do in preparation for a test. It would seem more likely to me that this is just an abbreviation or condensation, like the first letter of each word. For instance, the first sentence of this post would read 'TAOTNSEAAEGSAPE', or something similar. When I was younger, I remember making 'super secret' doodles that were annotated in a similar fashion, in the most complex encryption I could devise on my own, to prevent others from reading them. There would likely appear to be structure in the message, since language has rules and guidelines that govern which words make sense in what order, that gives the semblance of a simple encryption. Anyway, that is my guess with my limited knowledge of encryption... LOLGLGTGTTYL.

It looks nice, but it didn't send a shiver down my spine like the first two did. Not to mention it is a painful reminder that all my gear could again be obsolete. I think I will say no more, least I portray myself as a bitter husk of a human that was beaten up by a bunch of insolent adolescents last time the level cap was raised...

Ahem. As I was saying... Shiny is good, shivering is excellent.
