The following cipher text was produced by using a setting word and the shifting alphabet cipher. The setting word defines which letter of the alphabet will be aligned with the letter A. Through the use of a setting word the alphabet can be shifted with each word. The first letter of the word in the cipher is the letter of the setting word and is NOT part of the deciphered plain text. The first letter is the letter on the inside disk that should be aligned with the letter A on the outside disk.

The setting word is often given in a clue, but to make it a little easier, the setting word for the following cipher text is: touchdown.

Remember to use your cipher disk to decrypt the message. The letter you decode (cipher letter) is on the inside disk, the corresponding letter for the decoded word (plain letter) is on the outside disk.
