The most obvious one. It would have been much harder to figure out what they were originally using if he used something like base64 encoding. Which also has translators.
Here is an example of what that looks like:
" VGhpcyBpcyBhIHNhbXBsZSBvZiBiYXNlNjQgZW5jb2Rpbmcu"
If this was really meant to be that hard of a puzzle. This would have left everyone scratching their heads for days. Look up a base64 decoder and type in that message and you will see what I mean. Everyone else would have just considered this nonsense and spam until an actual hint was given that it was a hidden message.
