BRITISH INTELLIGENCE (is that a contradiction in terms? :P)
are recruiting.
They have posted a code to crack for wannabe 007's
https://canyoufindit.co.uk/ (https://canyoufindit.co.uk/)
Here is the code

If you can crack it, you can then take part in an internet treasure hunt which may result in one of the several jobs they have on offer.
-
They spelt it wrong.
-
it's a trick
-
And slightly offensive.
-
I will tell them.
-
They should rephrase.
-
Team Intensity couldn't crack it.
-
They or me should rephrase?
-
They. Written like that people will take it the wrong way.
-
It is a distraction tactic.
What is spelled wrong?

The 'Q' is the key. I thought 's' or 'd' but it represents a space. :nerdy:

Bullshit! If you had ever worked as a clandestine operative you would know better. :hahaha: :zoinks:
-
I have cracked it. Took me a couple of hours but once I had sussed it I could have kicked myself because it is very simple.
-
The 'Q' is the key. I thought 's' or 'd' but it represents a space. :nerdy:
Then explain "DQQTQ". :P
-
Its asking if extraterrestrials could have visited earth in the distant past. Also talks about penis sheaths a bit.

Remove all the spaces first

I have spaced them out to make it easier to read. Read it going downwards and substitute 'Q' for a 'space'
It reads
A COMPUTER WOULD DESERVE TO BE CALLED INTELLIGENT IF IT COULD DECEIVE A HUMAN INTO BELIEVING THAT IT WAS HUMAN WWWDOTMETRODOTCODOTUKSLASHTURING

Turing = the next clue

Challenge 2:
I followed Bodie's link and came to another page with a single file available for download on it. The file is called "comp1.key", but it opens as plain text. Here it is:
