Our host confirmed that we were on the right track, except it would be one letter from each word that would then need to be decyphered. Not sure if that's helpful or not but that's what we were told! Hope you can crack it ...
Yeah we actually got pretty far according to the host, but everything I could possibly try with lookup tables, offsets, algorithms, and other ciphers just can't seem to work sadly.
It might not be the first letter of every word, could be any of them quite frankly, but determining which one it is is a whole other game. Then to actually decipher the code, well, I'm familiar with enough 'common' ciphers to come up with something, and it should be relatively simple (albeit creative) so likely no linear algebra involved for stuff like hill ciphers :/
