Ok here's the deal. I'm hosting a forum-mafia game on another site and I have a guy on a posting restriction. What I want him to do is translate everything he posts through some sort of encoding that won't be easy to decipher (making binary/octal/hexidecimal out). In addition I want one person each day to be able to translate what he says, leaving pretty much all the other players out of the loop.
Initially I was thinking about making the programs myself and giving it to him + whoever got the translator device, but then I figured we're all pretty anonymous on the site and I know if I was emailed some .exe file from someone I hardly knew I wouldn't touch it.
Anyway, to the point. I'm looking for some web pages that allow you to encode/decode text in a way that others wouldn't be able to decipher well. So far I have a webpage that translates text into base64, but I need at least 2-3 more sites. Help me fellow TL-ers; you're my only hope!

when you say "posting restriction" are you saying you want him to be able to condense his posts into fewer characters? If not, you have myriad options available... why not use RSA? Just google how to generate keys and you can encode/decode text manually through a terminal, or you could probably find a site that does it for you.
|
Oh and to solve the "condense" case, what I would do is use base X encoding, then use RSA to encrypt/decrypt the messages in base X.
don't use base 64 because that's like the most obvious cipher ever.
|
Would it work for him to encrypt his text with a passkey? You could then give the passkey to whichever players you want to be able to decipher it. Something like AlphaCrypt can do this in javascript.
|
ahh perfect perfect! You guys are life savers! The first day phase already started so it's a tad late to change out the base64 encryption for this phase. However, this stuff is so much better, I'll be sure to implement this. Thanks!

just have him post his messages in encrypted text files created by 7zip or similar...then send the password to the intended target.
