For starters I doubt I need to explain any giveaways I do just like no one ask bahn to explain the notion behind his intriguing puzzles though some benefited from it. But I will do this for the sake of making everyone understand.

My giveaways for Control are out of pocket (I paid for them) so I can put any rules to my giveaways as I wish (my keys my rules). I could have taken the money of getting those 2 keys and perhaps buy those dollar bundles (as and when I see them) from fanatical and give them out on Steamgifts to level up for joining some neat level 5/6 giveaways (or even a level 6 gated group). But I do wish to give back to a community that has given me so much and that satisfaction weighs far beyond what some leveling can bring to me.

If we look at SkeetSurfer's quote of my initial post (Thanks for quoting my initial post so it saves my ass SkeetSurfer! ;)) you can see that I have set the rules "Not putting this up on a wheel or whatsoever but also not on a first request first served basis! Replying to this might also not work. If you understand the rules to this you just might otherwise keep trying!"

Furthermore I made 2 links in that post (see SkeetSurfer's quote post 👆, a from want and 2 before copies, the links still are evidently there but links to nowhere as I have removed them) to where to start the quest for the keys on the post hidden among the words.

Sadly I don't have a fairy dust like immerbeaner does (please bless immerbeaner with more great keys for sharing with us :ROFLMAO:) else I could perhaps entertain some request.

Also I did mention since some time ago that I am not doing much of first come first serve for my giveaways unless they are really common keys. Say if this puzzle was for a Commandos 3 (or even Bad Rats) game I can bet maybe there will be so much less interest and the game might be on there even after a week. Games are meant to be played and if you really want to win to play them you might have to be observant on what I post (I could have hidden something here for all you know? Nah I'm just lying :whistle:) to try win a key. Simply said simply done 😊

Just another heads up, the Control game puzzle was just a trial, if I do giveaways for such games in future you might just expect the difficulty to be bumped up somewhat 🙃

Apologies for the long post I just want to clear the air up lest I get more unhappiness going around. o_O
There is a problem with puzzles. Since not everyone has the same country culture and is not the same age, a question that is very easy for the person who created the puzzle can be very difficult for someone who is stuck in these barriers.

I guess it's fine then. I will not do anymore of these puzzle that requires the winner to DM me with the code/keyphrases to get the keys. Saves my money as well. So in future I wish not to hear any complains with regards to the wheel only draws for uncommon/rarer keys and now it is perceived as unfair :)

This is starting to become a hard please.. o_O
I really appreciate and thank you co2no for what you're doing. I think you should just do whatever is easiest for you. After all, what you're doing shouldn't make you tired

Actually my intention for my puzzles are all game answers as the passphrase after all we are a gaming community and for revealing these were my end puzzles. You can try them yourself below. Disclaimer this is just for fun no prizes and I also will not be doing anymore of such giveaways.

Shouldn't be overly hard to guess the passphrase with these 2 as they are quite well known over the world. You guys can make a guess (Blitz and Chaosttc no help please ;))

I would also like to propose to you another raffles - this time for LEGO® The Hobbit, F1 2018 & Ancestors Legacy..
Rules are as usual - send me a private message if you would like to participate (you can participate in all of them), and I will add your name to the list. The raffle will be concluded after several days (depending on the activity of new participants, I will wait 2 or 3 days to give you all the chance to sign in).

Got another idea to make the drawing much easier - maybe we should create a private group on the Steamgifts? co2no could be an admin, no special rules except to be kind to all people, we would apply here to be a part of the group, and then everyone could create a draw whenever they want to... Just an idea, what do you think?
Hello, may I participate in draw 3 Ancestors Legacy? Thank you

Congratulations Karen Petrosyan, SkeetSurfer, and Ortega for winning previous giveaway.

@co2no, no good deed goes unpunished.
Thanks! Really appreciate that ;)

I dont yhink you need to explain...i only understood part of the explanation and i stayed more confused o_O i think i will pass your puzzles. 2 hard for my head.
I will just stick to normal giveaways from henceforth that way I also need not think of how to do those puzzles and source for the clues.


Wheel Draw Season 2
Anyway for the Season 2 of wheel giveaways what will happen is everyone will have 4 tickets per month to join for up to 4 giveaways. I will list all the games on giveaways starting of the month and add them to the 1st page where I summarize all my giveaways so that everyone will be able to view them anytime rather than having to search back the thread. Tickets will not stack for the month and will reset every month.

I won't be tracking how many tickets you have used for giveaways so I trust everyone to keep track of your joins but please don't cheat and make your fifth entry for the month :LOL:

Any further feedback to this scheme please feel free to make inputs. Thanks lots!

You never heard of 4-fingers Zombie's Journey to the West? Where have you been living?
Strike that. I haven't heard of him/her/them either. ;)
But googling makes you find the answers yep? I am not overly sure of either but when cluing things together I came across them and thus put them up.

Maybe this one is for Left 4 dead game? :unsure:
Yep! See you can clue them together :)(y)

I've given a hint that it is a game so don't look at the pictures for their face value but rather what the clues are hinting. And if we follow this direction the second clue is also easy furthermore as part of my hint yesterday I did mention that on this thread I have written about it.

Whatever the case is this will be the first and last puzzle I will throw in since it is not really appreciated why waste my money to slap my own face? :cautious:

Oh, please do not do the cautious face. You can still throw puzzles at us if you have time to spare.
There will just not be a prize for us when solving them. :)
It saves you money, and some of us frustration. Win win!

Well, puzzle 1 is (may be) simple one for someone who have seen left 4 dead game logo.
Puzzle 2 is mystery for me too, but i try this game:
Do not feed the monkeys
🤣😂🤣😂😅
