Hi all!

Fire up your decryption algorythyms and sequence degenerators, the fun's
about to start...

Delete this if not interested.

1) Child's Play: What's the next letter in this sequence?

O,T,T,F,F,S,S,...

2) Teenagers Play: What's the next set of numbers in this sequence?

1,3;2,3;3,5;4,4;5,4;6,3;7,5,8,5;...

3) Adult's Play: What is the next number in this sequence?

1, 11, 21, 1211, 111221, ...

4) Expert play: Decrypt this substitution cypher with a common key used in
an uncommon way; three hints, it's not binary, ANY two differing symbols
could have been used, and the key allows for no numbers or punctuation.
P.S. It's not mathematical, either.

001111111011111111011111111100111111000011111111100111111010000011111111101111100111110011111111111100001110011011111111111110011101111111111110111110011111111111000011100111111111111001110111111110111110011111.
(END)

Here's the same message binary encoded alphamatic:

10100010000100110011000000100110011000000000100000101100010110010110010000000011011110110110000011000010111000.
(END)

Have fun!
