Hello HF! :D
Normally I would do these types of challenges with a prize of some sort,
but I honestly have nothing to contribute other than just these challenges for the time being,
but I really hope you enjoy them anyways haha! :D
Hint:
Involves the substitution cipher but has a small Twist two it. ;]
Substitution is a great first step, Groups is very good for a 2nd idea and lastly you would just do the Twist. :]
"DAOHRGCEILKNFTS" These very important letters only correspond with the alphabetical order of the cipher text excluding repeated letters, Meaning "mmt" will be "een".
With that being said, enjoy what should be a short journey of substitution and then go for the Twist... lol
If you're still confused, just analyze all of the clues and something should click for you that would enable you to crack the code haha but yea enjoy! :D
Code:

Cracked:
congrats on cracking the code for challenge one
I may decide to give another hint later on if no one is successful, but yea I wish all of you the best of luck! :D
no people know how to crack it lol.

There's a few people that can prolly crack it. :D
Can you give us another hint please? :)
Another hint would be very, very nice.

Just updated it will another Hint, I think that should be good enough to solve it!
Good Luck! :D

I assume it has to do something with these kind of "groups" :
[HELP!] How does this Cipher System work?!
What I don't understand is the order. You said : "Substitution is a great first step, Groups is very good for a 2nd idea and lastly you would just do the Twist. :]".
I tried many combinations for the substitution but if we don't know when the substitution was applied, it makes it a lot harder (impossible?)(harder = more work :<)
How can we get the right key for the substitution if it is scrambled in groups? Don't get me wrong, I'm not giving up, I don't want the answer :D but am I missing the obvious here or what?
Edit: That "mmt" is giving me a headache as well ... "All, See, Eel, Too" but I think it's not in the right place because of the group hint. :(
Thank you for this challenge by the way.

Your on the right track! And haha yea it is more difficult when substituting the letters and knowing which scrambled letters are the correct ones.
I think you may be missing some other key words I have emphasized on, try re-analyzing the hints again. :D
Haha I didn't really realize the difficulty of this when I posted it haha but ill let you all continue trying at it until its unbearable for you guys haha.
Tiny hint :]
Defiantly no relationship with Caesar meaning it's just a bit more difficult but defiantly possible.
More helpful hint won't be given until Friday, so collaborate with each other :D

Is it just me or is that "two" more than just a typo? I don't think you'd accidentally put a 'w' there, ever, and looking at your posts you don't seem to be the kind to make intentional spelling mistakes. Am I onto something of just barking up the wrong tree?

Am I onto something of just barking up the wrong tree? You're definitely barking up the right tree, just keep analyzing the hints/posts and the code and you'll get it hopefully haha. I will be posting another hint later today though haha good luck! :D

Solved it, PMing now...
After substitution (very very short journey) it takes about 30s.
Good luck all!

Nice code by the way, and "DAOHRGCEILKNFTS" is a huge hint. Then again, I don't know how you'd solve substitution without that hint. Probably do the "twist" first, the sub... might work that way.
halcy0n
and to crack the substitution, it would be a bit hard but still possible to crack it with a frequency analysis and trial and error haha but yea next one i'll make sure is easier to crack but still a challenge! :D
