Three-men-with-fancy-hairdos-looking-over-the-sea day already? That was sooner than I expected!

It sure has been a fun year in here... let's make it another!

Time for reminiscing and a little scavenger hunt!

300 is right where I started, and it's where I end up today... when I do my 300th giveaway!

It might be a lot of work, and it'll certainly take a keen eye, but trust me, it'll be worth it (^w^)

If you need a hint, just ask~

Time to go BACK!

Happy hairdo day! I just dismiss the rest...
Went through your old threads and it's funny how many of those I remember.
Unfortunately missing to many pieces to find anything ;_;
Anyway, enjoy your day!

Yes, I certainly made my puzzles a bit too obscure back in the day...

Don't hesitate to ask though, the final gib is definitely worth it! (^w^)

Well, I only found one part for #1; four parts for #2 and another four parts for #3 (I think).
Problem is, I wrote them down on a piece of paper which I can't find anymore ;_;

I'm sure you can find them again (^w^)

I did most of my puzzle threads at the beginning, that's probably why they're a little hard to find. The thing to look for with me is almost always the 5-character giveaway code.

There's one part in the first thread, 2 in the second, 1 in the third, and one in the fourth.

Just go through the train (all threads were edited to have a wagon below them) and explore the threads, solve some of the puzzles, find what I hid in them!

Happy, three-men-with-fancy-hairdos-looking-over-the-sea day.
I have no clue what you want me to do or if you want me to do anything, so let me be the first to ask a hint for 500$ (Disclaimer: not an actual redeemable amount in any sort of way or form, the money has purely fictional value only).

Don't worry, I'll accept 500$ worth of hugs and positive thoughts! (^w^)

I'll be pretty generous too!

  • There's three gibs, increasing in awesomeness
  • Explore the threads, find what's hidden!
  • Don't do it on your phone(^w^)

You're just not looking careful enough, it's a whole train you know (^w^)

It shouldn't be too hard, just a lot of work looking (^w^)

There's 15 things in total to find, pretty straightforward.

You have to find 1, 2 and 3 in that order, though.

Still only 3 entries/solvers, that seems awfully low...
The ITHs are stopping them?

Not a clue, really! (-_-)

I'll just share the three gibs with my whitelist in two days, I think.

I didn't even find a ITH link. I had 4 out of 5 letters for the third link and just 1 letter for the first one. As I already own Grim Dawn, it didn't seem worth the hassle. :)

Well, the second gib is pretty great too... and the giveaways can only be found in order (^w^)

I know some of my earlier puzzles where pretty whacky, I just wish anyone would ask for specific hints...

It's always difficult to ask. For one you might seem stupid, if you are the first one asking or mentioning troubles. Just yesterday I had this experience and suddenly lots of others mentioned similar problems. :)

And it is also often difficult to mention a problem without potentially revealing too much about the puzzle. I know that you hid some letters in older giveaways, using the spoiler protection. But it seems that you also used another method to hide letters, that I didn't recognize.

Oh yes, I wondered about that one too!

And to make it slightly less confusing (I realize that others might not know what was changed and what was already there):

There are 15 hidden bits to find, 5 for each giveaway, all of them hidden in giveaways. All the old giveaways remained the same except for the addition of a puzzle piece hidden by a spoiler tag. All threads remained exactly the same except for the addition of the "train" bits at the bottom of each of them.

And in case you hadn't noticed - it's pretty dang obscure - my very first thread contains a small puzzle train too.

ITHs are stopping some of us for sure. I already spent too much time on this, to bother with the ITHs too tbh.
I love the idea in this, I just think the ITHs are not appropriate and make it too time-consuming...

The thing is, i can probably bruteforce the 2nd and 3rd giveaway (just one part missing in each). But I'm not even sure if it's worth the effort... It probably isn't cause Grim Dawn will not be there anyway. Knowing the GAs beforehand would certainly help with motive.

Which ITH is giving you trouble?

As for the bruteforcing, grim dawn is in the 3rd, extra proof
