ROT13 on thmyl : t→g, h→u, m→z, y→l, l→y → guzly (no).

Test ly (l=12, y=25) decrypt -5: 12-5=7→h, 25-5=20→u → hu not common. Given the year 2000 and the phrase "useful paper", maybe it's a simple shift of ? Try first word thmyl : t(20)-7=13→n, h(8)-7=1→b, m(13)-7=6→g, y(25)-7=18→s, l(12)-7=5→f → nbgsf — not English. I think the most common quick cipher in such puzzles is ROT13 , but ROT13 on thmyl = guzly , not obvious.

Atbash: a↔z, b↔y, c↔x, etc.

b↔y r↔i n↔m a↔z m↔n j↔q → yimznq

But simpler: maybe but with kn2000 as hint: kn = xa in ROT13? kn in ROT13: k→x, n→a, so xa2000 . Not helpful. Step 10: Try ROT13 on kn2000 → xa2000 not meaningful.

So gsnbo yimznq not promising. thmyl reversed = lymht no. Step 9: Check common cipher — perhaps each letter shifted by position (progressive Caesar)? thmyl brnamj zf awrj ly alkybwrd kn2000

Better: Try ROT13 on whole phrase:

This looks like a simple substitution cipher (likely a shift cipher or a monoalphabetic cipher). Let me attempt to decode it.

If ly = in , then: l → i (shift -3) y → n (shift -3) So it might be a in cipher (or -3 in plaintext). Step 2: Test shift -3 on first word thmyl : t-3 = q? Wait, let's map carefully: ROT13 on thmyl : t→g, h→u, m→z, y→l,

But check alkybwrd → could be alkybwrd = something ?

Wait, if ly = in , then l→i (-3), y→n (-3) consistent! Yes! Because y (25) -3 = 22 = w? No — 25-3=22→w, not n. So not consistent. So ly can't be in with a fixed Caesar shift.

But maybe ? (a↔z, b↔y, etc.) ly → ob (not "in"), so no. Step 3: Try ROT13 (common for obfuscation) b↔y r↔i n↔m a↔z m↔n j↔q → yimznq
