Ciphers

After scrolling on r/codes for too long, I decided to make my own cipher site. These ciphers are styled like Capture the Flag challenges, meaning that the first person to submit the correct answer for a stage gets "first blood" credit.
Answers to ciphers are in plain english, and there is a two hour delay between guesses for each stage. Good luck!
