Solution: (Hide)

Solution: RD4DM A Caesar cipher with a shift of one was used to encode the text "sequence": EIGHT SEVEN SIX FIVE FOUR THREE TWO ONE But first, to make things a little more interesting, any group of letters that could be viewed as Roman numerals were replaced by their Arabic counterparts and the entire text was split into 5-character groups. Through the encoding process "SEVEN" became "SE5EN" and then by Caesar substitution "RD4DM".
