It's my birthday today

Closed

So I created a giveaway.

When the giveaway ends I encode it using base64 and also calculate it's md5 hash (lowercase), then I use 1st of original, 3rd and 9th of base64 string, 19th and 22nd of md5 hash in order: 9th of base64, ...

First giveaway entrant gets a bonus game!

No hints or links sharing!

Edit:
The game is $30, 80+ metascore, non-bundle game.

Hint:
For some reason it can be easier to solve over time.

"I give up" giveaway ;)

I figured you were just the first person to solve it. When I first saw this, nobody else had claimed to solve it, but there was one entry. So you're saying you did not solve it?

Haven't solved any puzzles in a good year now...
I posted this a few minutes after this thread was opened, but no one called my bluff :P

What the? Where is the giveaway?
Or are we meant to figure out the URL link to the giveaway from your second line? Isn't very clear.

Welcome to the world of puzzles. Some of them are evil, but they can be solved.

Don't believe so, I don't know if I want to know though, from what you are implying. I like a good puzzle, but with nothing to work off of, in regard to what goes were just trips me out, and I waste too much time on it.

I know about Fibonacci Sequence, but that puzzle is too convoluted for me. Especially early in the morning while trying to work at the same time. :P

First, happy birthday !

Can you please tell us what game it is ? It doesn't seem like an easy puzzle and I don't want to use time on something that I already own/want :}

I have a feeling it may be too hard, but then we would have two more characters, so who knows.

I take that back... I follow you. I do want to ask for one clarification because sometimes phrasing confuses me. Do you mean you take the hash of the ORIGINAL or the hash of the Base64?

That's true, English in not my native language. Md5 hash and base64 are both taken from original so they are separate from each other.
In a few hours I'll add a hint for what the ORIGINAL string is :)
