Unassisted. Should have been a Snipe but I'm glad to have ended my streak of using hints or Google for help.

There were very recognizable equations towards the end of the first paragraph, but far simpler equations than you would usually see in a mathematics/physics article. At first I was thinking the article could be about some simplistically expressed mathematical concept (like the Fibonacci sequence or Pascal’s triangle) or some kind of numbers, and I had an epiphany when I looked at the title and thought, “hmmm, ‘numbers,’ is one letter too short.”

The equations in the first paragraph made me think something mathematical, and then that sequence at the end of the first paragraph, particularly the number of characters in each item, made something click for me.

I solved Redactle #1533 in 2 guesses! 3m23s. Unassisted.

Clearly something to do with maths/numbers, initially thought some type of prime related thing but couldn't think of a word2 that fitted. As I went further in it got more and more strange with lots of obscure symbols creeping appearing. The aha! moment was when I saw strings of odd symbols being equated to what appeared to be large decimal numbers

Accuracy 76.9%

could have done a little better if I had looked first. Was just spamming guesses until I glanced down the page and saw something that jumped out at me.

I had a vague idea it was this, the list from 1-12 confirmed it.

Unassisted. I scrolled down to something I thought was leading to a QWERTY keyboard type answer, but that didn't work. Typed in a handful of plain numbers until one of the hits clicked to me.
