I did zero 0, two 1, zero 1, etc.:

(don't worry, I used a script)

Gives this in ternary to decimal:

Decided to pass to pass the answer of my first rant through the same, and then do the same thing again and again, here's what I got:
11111221111000001111120
1121110112
11112

I decided to sum those numbers and it gave me (11111221111001122232356)
I then refined that:
1121110222

111122

@JBSnorro @RAZERZ @RedBorg (@hube good guess) (@UnknownDev good guess) @hacker @stop
I'm giving you a hint!
2 are seperators!
Then each is a symbol on it's own

Got to H@KC:LC96O C?NP by assuming every segment is of length 4, encoded in tertiary and an empty space represents a 2...

separated the segments by the 2s : ['00', '101', '10', '111', '011', '11', '111', '010', '000', '1', '1010', '111', '100', '0', '']

@RedBorg if that's base 2, base 10 is
[ 0, 5, 2, 7, 3, 3, 7, 2, 0, 1, 10, 7, 4, 0, NaN ]

Doesn't make sense though, cause there is for example both 0 and 00 in there

Maybe 0=a, 1=b, 00=c, 01=d etc.

I'm worried the next hint will give it away...
The encoding is from English to Binary (obviously)
It uses variable lenght codes
(Hope doesn't make it too easy)

@Verstrahlter What?!
First of all, you shouldn't bruteforce this!
Second of all, on production servers?!!!!?!!

@Mitiko is this possible without the character mapping? I tested quite some alphabets now... 😶
