Survivor: Indigenous People

[Vonner]

Alright, here is what I got.

Coded Message
Sax "nxbnfx br sax fbehmbzpx" kbpsfw fjdxc jp sax ebqsmxvps
zejsxc pshsxp. Sax jqjgbzjp dberxcxqvsjbe uvp kvcx zn br rjdx
sqjlxp.

De-coded Message
THE "PEOPLE OF THE LONGHOUSE" MOSTLY LIVED IS THE NORTmEAST
UNITED SThTES. THE IRIQOUIS VONFEDERATION WAS MADE UP OF FIVE
TRIBES.

bold letters = not sure, I think it's a coding mistake.

Code
actual letter - code letter
A <= V
B <= L
C <=
D <= C
E <= X
F <= R
G <=
H <= A
I <= J
J <=
K <=
L <= F
M <= K
N <= E
O <= B
P <= N
Q <= G
R <= Q
S <= P
T <= S
U <= Z
V <= D
W <= U
X <=
Y <= W
Z <=

It appears that some of the code letters and actual letters are reversed in the code. I think the phrase charfred posted is what chris was looking for, but what I have should be the literal translation.

Either I'm wrong or Kai's message is a tad off
The people of the lonahouse(?) mostly lived is(?) the northeast United States. The Iriqouis(sp?) vonfederation(?) was made up of five tribes.

discrepancies
h=a, should lonahouse be longhouse?
d=v, but should vonfederation be confederation?
p=s, should jp in mostly lived IN the northeast, the "n" in IN should be e instead of p

So if I didn't get the message right I"ll be surprised.

I would've gotten this way earlier if the message hadn't been messed up.

[Vonner]

Did I miss something? How did both charfred and madonniac get the "h" in "Northeast"? It's coded as "m", and the code for "H" is "a" everywhere else.

Wow, that's confusing.

Doh! By chris, I really meant Kai. (I'm getting my game hosts messed up.)

I didn't get that mixed up....now I'm confused.

[Smitty]

Man, it was a good thing I got eliminated, or I'd go through THIS!

I here ya...were we forgotten?

[Vonner]

Maybe all our talk of potential spelling errors, and backwards codes, and stuff in our part of the challenge has KaiProbst confused. It might be time for marshall law. We all just settle this little thing on our own.

This game is entirely too lengthy and drawn out. One challenge is taking two weeks.
