I finally got Watershed and now I want to get started on the code. But I don't have the patience, let alone the intelligence, to get started. Any tips? Nothing too big though, I do want to do this independently.

It's Cipher code, wikipedia that for help.

Basically, each symbol stands for a letter. The only way to really figure it out is to count the occurances of each symbol, and try to guess letters based on frequency. (ie: "E" is usually the most common letter used).

The first 5 pages of this thread are also very helpful. There's a spoiler on the 6th page, but as long as you stick to the first 5 you're OK.

The fact that there's no spaces makes it quite a task though. Hopefully you have some free time, it's not gonna be easy.
