Encrypted messages, coding puzzles, etc. ;-) Thread

We'll see how smart guys at Moddb are. ;->

Rules:
1. The puzzle content must be written by the author himself - to prevent googling. ;-P
2. The person who guessed the most recent puzzle has the right to post the next puzzle (or give this right to somebody else).
3. If nobody has solved the problem, the author is obliged to post the solution one week after posting (and anyone can post his puzzle).

Any languages or encryption methods can be used, except foreign languages - we take English as the base language. Hints can be given at any time. ;-) The puzzle shouldn't be too difficult or too easy to solve.

The puzzle:

%{ ^.%]-;^ (> ]^[[%<^  ){$)\)$_%; ;^))^}[ *^}^ }^-;%,;^$ !# ()'^} ,;'%}%,;)^}[  ,;}^%)){< %{ ^{,;}#-)^$ ]^[[%<^  ^%[# )( $^,;)-'^} )> ({^ ,;%{ >)<_}^ (_) '(* )( >){$ )'^ +^#  )'^ ]^)'($ (> }^-;%,;){< (} /_[) -%})),;_;%} ]^%{){<[ (> ,;'%}%,;)^}[  ,;(}}^,;);# 

Hint: an encryption method used in one of Edgar Allan Poe's tales (IIRC).

you have one problem in your challenge sir, you don't use the same symbols as in the story
i do know that everything is written backwards and symbols(spaces, commas, etc..) are ommited
so since yours is incomplete, i hereby post my own "riddle" :p untill you have "fixed" yours xD

EDIT; mkay lets go :p should be easy enough (note the i omitted the usings and class code, since i did not put anything there anyway
its C# mixed with something else, the result from the C# program is written in something else
(yes, the C# code is in face a bit useless, but this wasn't about writing usefull code was it :3)

namespace ModDBRiddle
{
	class Program
	{
		static void Main(string[] args)
		{
			int x = 1;
			string[] input = new string[2] = {"--.--.<<----.>>>+++++.>++++.<<<<.>>>-----.---.<<<.>>>>.<+++++++.+.>>----.<<+++++.-----.>+.>.<<<<<+...-.>++++.>++.", "++++++++++++++++++[>++>+++>++++>+++++>++++++>+++++++<<<<<<-]++++++++++++++++++>>>+++++.>>+++.<++++++++++.<-------"};
			string output = "";
			
			while(x != 7)
			{
				input.reverse;
				x++;
			}
			
			for (int i = 0; i < input.length; i++)
			{
				ouput += output[i];
			}
			
			// What does output mean at this point, in english? :x
		}
	}
}

EDIT: little error, fixed now :p

Yes, because I use my own code. ;-P

The riddle is correct - the BASE language must be English and it is English.

And no, it isn't written backwards - it is written as it is. :-) Just other characters. ;-> Yup, and commas/dots are omitted, same with uppercase letters.

well you said that is the encryption method used in a Edgar Allen Poe story, but now you say it is your own? which one of the 2 is it now? xD

Because it is SIMILAR... well, IDENTICAL, just other characters. ;-P It'd be 'too easy'. :-D

Anyway:
whoever solves one of the two - can ask another one. ;-) (Then others can choose between solving the remaining one and the new one.) Sigma, you made it a bit more complicated. ;-D

the C# part is easy, the other one is easy to once you know what it is :3
Allso i want to add another rule if i may: you have to explain how you got it So you can enlighten the rest of us and prove you solved it :p

Sigma: the equation of the output of the void is over 9000 while you then add the variable of y into the equation which raises it. then the message comes out as: 80085.

It's Boobs. Boobs is the answer.

Edit: Found the other part.
Input the value of 80085 and do a simple equation of (x)80085/12x14. Take the number, put it through a 1337 to english translator and then you get sinep. sinep backwords is penis.

The answer...It's boobs and penis!
