Code #3
Observations
28 letters, numbers and symbols. Notice how symbols are always repeating.
This is Base64, here’s how
First convert lowercase to uppercase
QUF!!M&&ZGVU5DVE((PT&&Y3OE9H
Remember a few days ago we had a cipher that used symbols to specify the keyboard row and letter numbers. Those symbols are exactly that. !! is first letter of second row (a) && is 7th letter of second row and (( is 9th letter of second row. This gives us the needed lowercase letters to finish the base64 string
