    Okay, pretty much the goal of this game is there is none (it's a forum game, lol!) However, this is meant to be a fun game. Basically one person starts it off with a code (I'll do the first one) and everyone else has to crack it. You may only do one specific thing to it (i.e. cryptogram, putting it backwards, etc) unless you tell us the steps. If you guess it right, you get to create the next one. Once it gets going we can have multiple codes going at the same time (try not to make them overly-complicated but it's fine to be hard).

    Here's the first code:
    147771301231750177741734647773
    (don't overthink this, that's key. if it gets too far I'll give a hint).

    Well, let's hope people actually post here ;). Also: this is not a 'A=1' type code. So much simpler. Though one number could stand for two things, depending on what's around it!

    Ok, since no one seems to want to respond to my code, I'll give out more hints since it might be too hard (amazingly enough, it takes people that are generally less smart less time to figure it out, because they can see how simple it is)
    Your first hint is that all '4's are, in this code, the letter A

    So, does this mean I'll never figure this out? :cool:

    Lol. Well...Einstein failed his classes in elementary school :p. But this is soooo simple, really. And my final hint for you is this: the numbers are the letters. This will make sense if you get it and might help you think about it differently.Also: if you have your own code, feel free to post it!

    Here's my code:

    !EMAG SIHT GNIYALP EB OT EMOSEWA OOT SI XERC

    Hint: Read it in reverse
