Alright guys, in light of the fun times Steyene has brought us with his fun little puzzle... I present to you another puzzle.

Feel free to work together on this one. It's a multi-layer puzzle so... consider this level 1.


309 101 231 . 306 294 113 2592 30 84 313 1043 124 61 223 820 . 1158 6063 20508 / 71 5 367 2540 31 306 / 198 1 11848 53 1980 139 45 57 . 7 165 228624

CLUES:
1: It's based off the English Alphabet
2: It works similar to a bicycle lock.
3: Non numeric characters such as "." and "/" will not be altered and remain the same.
4: Alphabetically letters can be assigned to numbers.
5:The spaces are only present to separate the numbers (and symbols) themselves for you to be able to decipher them

As a hard working buisiness man, I'm going to have to reject your puzzle on the grounds that my head hurts.

Guys, normally I would help but I had about four hours of sleep last night and despite being a caffeine addict my brain is working pretty slowly

Lets tick off what we know it isn't.

Binary (Since there isn't a shit load of 1's and 0's).
Dec (Since ASCII doesn't go into the thousands. At least there is no actual letters that high).
Hex (As there is no A's, B's, C's, D' or E's.)

My guess is with that level, is numbers to a random base. Then maybe decimal or hex.

The lowest number there is 7. So going of that it means that the puzzle is to the base 7.

Converting to binary.

All I see is a bunch of numbers and dots. I'm not going anywhere with this, so yeah...

I'll just wait for Steyene to figure it out.

I still don't understand the last one, or any of these in fact...

Well, if I dropped a few hints it'd be pretty easy, but where would the fun in that be?

I hope someone solves it though >.>

Actually the opener is more of a code, the rest is more a puzzle... borderline code... for now.

this isn't even a puzzle, you're just throwing a random code at us and expecting us to decode it without any clues or leads as to how we should even start

Ok ok ok... I'll drop ONE... but that's it for a while...

>.>

<.<

edit: updated with clue.

edit 2: It's a vague, weak hint for now... mainly because I want everyone to work together as a team to rule out possibilities. I find the idea of intercepting a code and decoding it.. fun =)
