I worked out what went wrong P funk - by the nature of how each rotor works, if I understand correctly, every time you press a letter it turns the relevant rotor one position forward. You can only hit each letter once from the starting order for the message to decipher properly. Here I was thinking in 21st century logic that you could repeatedly press a character as if it were electronic, and it would repeat the same encoding. I'm not sure if that made sense, but I've worked out what I did wrong :p
Basically you cant start trying to decode your message again (if you muck up half way through it) unless the "Walzenlage" are in the correct beginning position. Quote:
