Something you will see often on this forum are puzzles. Private giveaways that you can only get to if you solve what the OP has presented. Sometimes you are given a link to the puzzle, and other times you have to work a bit to even get that far. Those that make it through usually have pretty decent odds for whatever game awaits.

This ^
Using the code at the top, you can solve a puzzle which will take you to a giveaway ^^ As of now it has 6 entries and will end in 2 hours, so their chances of winning are much higher than public giveaways :D

I'm probably going to kick myself when I find out the answer. Oh well. Besides the frustrations of the second question, I really enjoyed figuring out the rest of the questions. ^_^

Yeah, I went through a lot of versions, so I thought that given the vagueness of the question it would at least support a variety of formats, so I didn't check all the formats for all the versions.
