Actually, as I recall, the trick was to write down the alphabet, then write down the alphabet backwards below it, lining up a with z, b with y, etc. Then using that as a cypher, translate the word rumplestiltskin.
I'm wondering if anyone ever actually figured that out on their own. It's been so long ago that I can't remember if I did or not.. I have a feeling I called the help line.:)
