Sigh. I give up. I put about 7 hours into trying to figure this out now. If I haven't gotten it in that time, I am probably over thinking it and will likely never come up with the answer.

You're not the only one.
I've tried every number/letter combination I could find in the OP. I've tried reading between the lines (the possibility of a missing "a" in the first sentence. That Monday is the 2nd day of the week. The missing space between "Even" and "though".) I've gone through OGrady's past posts and giveaways to see if a new post has been made or updated. After all of that, I decided to read more into the time it ends and looked through the posts in all of the giveaways ending around that time for a clue.
I am completely out of ideas.

"Apparently I am TOO AWESOME for Steam to handle. You may not be able to participate at the moment, but then again, it might work. I can't actually test it. Give me a moment."
And then a later edit to the main post: "ALSO: IT ACTUALLY WORKS NOW."
Maybe something to do with Steam.

Thought of that too. Found nothing in any of his groups, his page, his videos, his screenshots, etc. I thought maybe the forums, but they're down lol

so basically you are either picking random people for it or to specific people that stand out to you? seems like a smart idea actually...

Checked his name and steamgifts on google, nothing.

Question, the XXXXX, is it randomly generated or does the user get to pick it?

The game also appears to not have cheats either, so it can't be that.

Is there a direction we should be heading in? Because honestly, I've tried everything I can think of, and aside from locating the steam profile of some asian kid that I thought might be related until I checked it out further, I got nothing. I feel like I'm just grasping at straws here. It's hard to hunt for treasure when you have no idea what the treasure looks like or on what continent it is located.
-Not complaining, if that's how you want the puzzle to be, so be it, it's your game and your rules. I'm just worried I'm missing something obvious, and staring at this for howevermany hours is not helping me feel less stupid.

I think you should know what the "treasure" looks like: It's the "XXXXX" in http://www.steamgifts.com/giveaway/XXXXX/deus-ex-human-revolution/
And apparently this thing is not nearly as hard as I imagined, so no hints.

You'll have to add me onto the pile of those not clever enough to figure it out. But thanks anyway for the shot at it. You're pretty devious!
