[ApoorvKhatreja]

No no...I just want to know what CGPA means..that will probably help us to solve the problem. Looks interesting to me .

[uchiha.sasuke]

no idea.....but definitely want to know the answer..........

[Lucky_star]

CGPA stands for Cumulative Grade point Average which is the grading system in Engineering.

[Pathik]

try some steganography soft on that img

[anilmail17]

@pathiks its not related with softwares i think, its just a kind of puzzle

[Lucky_star]

I flipped and mirrored the image....but couldn't get a clue

[ApoorvKhatreja]

Some of those letters really match the English alphabets. I think I know some font which looks like this.

[Lucky_star]

Anybody from Giza, Egypt?

[ApoorvKhatreja]

Where did you get the image/question?

[anilmail17]

this question is part of a quiz

[Lucky_star]

Can you tell the context?

This is not form Egypt....this is surely some kind of Old IndoEuropian font...

[gaurav_indian]

Somekind of chinese virus.

[anilmail17]

this question is from the quiz of www.quark07.com

[hailgautam]

May not be IndoEuropian and Seems like old Dravidian font used in Indus Vally civilization.......but can't say....for sure

Actually, not sure if this has any thing to with some font,etc.. The problem reminded me a bit about a Sherlock Holmes short shory where messages with alphabets replaced by characters are used... Here, to solve it, we can use logic...

The result of my logic is that the message reads as follows:
"IT DOES NO GOOD TO DWELL ON DREAMS AND FORGET TO LIVE"
The top line therefore interprets to "S_ARAN" with the missing letter one of the unused alphabets in the above sentence - BCHJKPQUXYZ... Could be S.Karan but not sure...

EDIT: The short story mentioned above is "The Adventure of the Dancing Men" featured in "The Return of Sherlock Holmes"

[hailgautam]

Elementary....isn't it..

To solve the puzzle, you need to use logic and guesswork... First, I searched for single letter words - if there are any, the character is probably A, but it can also be an I if it is the first word... Next, there are a lot of two letter words that can help... Many of them had the character for O common... But there was both ON and NO - For two letter words that can read both ways, I think this is the only pair... So, from here, I proceed... Then, look at AND - when I have a three letter world with middle N, my first guess is AND... I next get _OOD which is probably GOOD... Through this process of guesswork and reasoning, I arrived at the solution...

Hey arun that's really nice. I have read about this techniques but am too lazy to really practice and learn them. But, such puzzles are really nice.
