    Default Calling all code breakers, BREAK THIS!

    So I have always had a fascination with different types of cyphers. Testing the waters to see how many wannabe code breakers are lurking on these forums. Already had one simple cypher cracked. Each cypher will get progressively harder.

    Contest: Be the first to crack the code!
    Prize: None yet/possibly a signature/fun!
    Rules: Don't ask for hints!


    INTERMEDIATE CYPHER:
    Hint: tiwch

    Ah got this idea from what the british espionage agency is doing, no?

    I might try my hand at it, not promising i'll solve it tho.

    EDIT: holy cow, took one look at it I think I may have figured out how to solve it. I'll edit this post with my answer.

    The winner of this cypher must PM the following phrase to me. I did not mean to let my eyes wander at the urinals.
    CORRECT! Serprus wins again! The next level of difficulty will have 3 winners. First to solve, second to solve and third to solve. It will be much harder. No solutions or hints should be posted. Also, I am still broke, so if anyone would like to contribute any prizes, that would be grand! So far, I will be making custom "CodeBreaker" signatures for the winners. I understand that this kind of thing isn't within everyone's realm of talents, however I am sure everyone would have fun with it. Hence, I will explain the methods I used in the previous two cyphers.

    ------------------------
    First Cypher:

    Encryption used: Rot13 only. Stands for Rotation 13. You just add 13 alphabet places to each letter.
    Winner: Serprus

    ZBESVP VF ZL XVAT NAQ ZNFGRE. NYY UNVY GUR HAQRAVNOYR CBJRE UR LVRYQF. UR UNGU YVRX... 20 FPENCCREF!

    =

    morfic is my king and master. All hail the undeniable power he yields. He hath liek... 20 scrappers!
    ------------------------

    Second Cypher:
    Encryption used:
    Hint was a simple Anagram for Witch. Which was supposed to allude to the main code being in Hexadecimal (Hex). Once you break down the hex code (Using mind power, or hex to string translators), you are left with another simple Rot13 encryption. Add 13 characters to each letter and you have the answer.
    Winner: Serprus


    477572206a7661617265206273206775766620706c63757265 207a68666720435a206775722073627979626a766174206375 656e6672206762207a722e20562071767120616267207a726e 6120676220797267207a6c20726c7266206a6e61717265206e 672067757220686576616e79662e

    =

    Gur jvaare bs guvf plcure zhfg CZ gur sbyybjvat cuenfr gb zr. V qvq abg zrna gb yrg zl rlrf jnaqre ng gur hevanyf.

    =

    The winner of this cypher must PM the following phrase to me. I did not mean to let my eyes wander at the urinals.
    --------------------------------------------------------------------


    Stay tuned for... BREAK THIS! (Advanced)

    Let's make it SPARKLE!
