I created a private giveaway that nobody is likely to win so instead of cancelling it I thought I'd give everyone another chance.

I'm going on a trip to five places.

Xyliatos, Cyprus
Khasar, Tajikistan
Gatitu Kenya
Mangrol, Gujarat
Sambava, Madagascar

The giveaway closes in about a day so don't take too long.

Clue: Don't think too laterally.

Edit: a different site to the one I used is giving a different result for the one in Tajikistan so you might need to add 1 to it

Edit: Google seems to think Khasar is in Afghanistan. Wow it updates fast these days. Anyway, their one works too.

You need to use the clues (which it seems you are doing correctly) to figure out the five digit code at the end of the giveaway URL. You don't post the answer here.

Is it really five digits (and not letters or other characters)? (I've got 5 numbers, but no idea how to convert them into one digit each. They could be converted into letters and/or digits, but there are at least 6 different possibilities, depending on certain ordering; none of the 6 I tried worked. Of course, I may very well be on a completely wrong track. :-])

I know what to do, but do you think you could at least give hints as to whether or not you use a letter or number and whether or not they're in caps? :S
