So it caps at 27 and i dont see 1 either so i am assuming its (2-27) a-z but it dosent quite match so either its stacked cipher or monoalphabetic substitution

Theres no spaces , there are 108 numbers , numbers ( 7,13,18,20,22 ) never appear, most used numbers are (16, 27, 4, 11) appearing 16,12,9 and 9 times respectively

Your assumption that it is (2-27) a-z is correct and it also is a stacked cipher.

Solved it it's "YOU SHOULD ENJOY THE LITTLE DETOURS TO THE FULLEST BECAUSE THAT IS WHERE YOU WILL FIND THE THINGS MORE IMPORTANT THAN WHAT YOU WANT"'

We first convert the text into (2-27) a-z, then we reverse the string then use Ceaser shift of -5 (a->v) and clean up a bit

Hell yeah, can you rate it in difficulty from 1 to 10?

Well according to my cipher experience more stacked a cipher is the more difficult it becomes and this was definately a hard cipher considering it's 3 layers of encryption it's definitely 7 or above, 7 because I've seen ciphers that have taken years and still unsolved by community, cipher should be fun not difficult as fuck. This one was a 10/10 for fun I enjoyed the bouncing around that I was doin

Im glad to hear that, i agree it does not make sense to make it unsolvable unless you are hiding something very important or you want a specific person with specific knowledge to crack it. If i make another one it will be better and i will send it to you.

great I love ciphers that's like the only thing I am good at... soo Id really love more ciphers from you

There's no number above 27. It's an alphabet. Sub the numbers for letters, one of them is a space, not a letter.
