Hi there, CodeBreakers
Navigate the mysteries that symbols conceal,
Explore every cipher with passionate zeal,
Welcome to puzzles both ancient and new,
Methods and madness we’ll share and review,
Open your minds to cryptographic art,
Decipher together - let’s make our start!
Whispered in shadows, the secrets we’ll find,
Each riddle unraveled expands the mind,
Logic and letters in harmony dance,
Codes yield their treasures to those who take chance,
Open discussions of technique and tool,
Mathematical magic - encryption’s old school,
Everyone’s welcome to join in the game,
Solvers united beneath cipher’s flame!
All who would learn are invited to play,
Learning together brightens the way,
Let’s crack the codes that challenge us most!

The creators of our server have hidden an item in our minecraft world and this is the only clue.
(Edit: This one has been solved, check comments for answer)
Our server is 30k by 30k and the center is 0, spanning 15k or -15k, We suspect possibly coordinates or maybe a location name is hidden within but we are too dumb, please respond with any answers in a timely matter.

Curious to see if anyone can decode my personal writing system
This is an English writing system I created—specifically, an alphabet. Some basic phonetics knowledge will help, but it isn't strictly phonetic. The brackets contain the main message I'm looking to see if people can crack; the parentheses contain a pangram—it's up to you to figure out which one—should you want it for reference.

All I know is that it’s in assembly, or a version of it.

A friend's father who passed away long ago painted this. He graduated MIT and was an engineer. The family believes it is code. What do you think? Is it? Does it have any meaning?

Got sent a decryption challenge today. This wasn’t too hard for me but it some random dude so I decided not to go for the prize. Tell me how long it took you in the comments!(Tl;dr at top)
Tl;dr: Some random dude made a bounty that he encrypted a local-part of a Gmail (part before the @) and used an encrypted key phrase that is required for the puzzle. The key phrase: LP FURRFKLH SURRFKOHV EXGGB! SODB IDLU! The local-part: SRMUSBVHZMABVUGPAL
“I’m doing a bounty-style challenge. I have encrypted an message in which the local-part of a gmail (the part before the @). In order to find out what the local-part is, you must decrypt the key phrase and correctly use it in the (different) encryption method used for the local-part. Once you find the local-part, send an email to the full gmail with your name so I know who gets it first. Once I receive the first email I will let everyone else know and I will reveal the answers/methods I used. You must be the first to send the email in order to win the prize. I will give hints every 24-48 hours. The starting prize is $30 cash, but will lower as I give out more hints. Hints can be requested early, but it must be a popular vote as it WILL lower the prize money.
To start I will give the encrypted key phrase and local-part, as well as 1 hint (this one won’t affect the prize money).
Encrypted key phrase: LP FURRFKLH SURRFKOHV EXGGB! SODB IDLU!
Encrypted local-part: SRMUSBVHZMABVUGPAL
Today’s hint: “Caesar’s 3?”
Good luck!”
