Topic: A secret message

The Africa started this discussion 1 day ago #132,678

I have encoded a secret message stored between two 56 character long hexadecimal strings. In order to decode the message you must perform some operation for which the following conditions are simultaneously true: a ? b = c, b ? a = c, c ? a = b, a ? c = b, b ? c = a, and c ? b = a. The last two characters of the corrected decoded string are 28.

I want to see if somebody can figure this out.

its a simple substitution cypher with the every digit of the output modified by a highschool teir algebra problem(no doubt of the scholastic level that it existed in before realizing its passion as a semen-powered ottoman and flunking out)

the secret message is thus: "We wuz kangz an sheeitt, now pound my nigussy, crackers."

@previous (decoder ring)
Is it possible for a substitution cypher to produce an output with 23 unique characters when the input only has 16 unique characters?

@previous (D)
The last two characters are 28… the decoded string is also 28 characters long…

Hint: 16^2 = 2^8

Nobody has figured it out yet. I’m surprised.
