Hey, the giveaways have ended, so it's safe to give the solution to the super difficult ultra-puzzle...

Well, perhaps it's not quite that difficult. Actually it's so not difficult I can quote the solution verbatim from the puzzle guide:

IMGUR DESCRIPTION - when puzzle maker is posting image from IMGUR (or other image sharing hosting) he may sometimes hide some info in page description for the file, but post link to img file otself, not to this page. In imgur it's quite easy to get to the page itself. you just have to delete .jpg from the link. If you're seeing image posted on ITH or other pages different than SG forum instead of link you will see image itself - in such a case right click image and choose "Show Image" - it will lead you to the site it's hosted on, and then proceed normally. As a practice try to find a HIDDEN TEXT in this image original page :>

So, umm, in case it's still too many words for you to bother with, you take "http://i.imgur.com/hIweFqs.jpg" and remove the ".jpg" part, leaving "http://i.imgur.com/hIweFqs" ... Umm...

Visiting the super difficult ultra-solution would reveal:

Y 2 s T C

See? What a difficult puzzle!

Hopefully you know what to do with Y 2 s T C. :) If not, you're probably browsing the wrong forum category... :)

Thank you for all the interesting messages, and congratulations to the winners! :) Better luck next time! :)


Original message:

No way! Bloodlines 2!! Hooray!!! :)

Are you excited too? No? Well, you're in the wrong puzzle then, so would you kindly get lost? :) Thank you! :) Mostly kidding... :)


Ok, now that's out of the way, woohoo! :) Did you wishlist it already? Or maybe already preordered it? Yeah, me too. Couldn't help myself.

Well, for everyone else... Unless this disappears from Steam before next Saturday, one lucky person is going to win a copy. Maybe you!

Ehh, probably not. I mean, you would have to solve a super difficult ultra-puzzle, and ain't nobody got time for that. Oh well. At least there's a consolation giveaway for the lazy people!

Also, by popular demand, some distracting but completely irrelevant leftover Steam keys masquerading as a puzzle hint!

And finally, some Neil Young lyrics that have nothing to do with this game. Couldn't think of any Smiths songs, sorry.

CONSOLATION GIVEAWAY!!!!

PUZZLE GUIDE!!!!!

Good luck! :)

Oh, I just remembered, I might be slow commenting due to trying Sekiro, assuming I remember to play it this weekend... Don't worry, I'll be back whenever with inane replies for everyone... :)

Random Steam Bloodlines games, pick one! For no reason, just seemed fun. And don't worry, I'm not giving away one of those non-vampirey games to troll you. Didn't think of it... Oh well. :)

I've never played VtM:Bloodlines even though I have a copy of it.

Never played Castlevania Bloodlines either. Great soundtrack though.

Hmm, I never played any Castlevania games, I guess not having a console takes the fun out of the console nostalgia... :( Oh well...

Thank you! :)

Castlevania Bloodlines is an underappreciated title. It doesn't get much attention compared to the rest of the 8-bit and 16-bit titles.

Okay, I figured it out. It was in the guide fiftykyu linked, I just had to read the whole guide carefully to find the relevant part.

I feel dumb again but it's ok, I'm used to it. I have read this puzzle guide so much over the last year, I pretty much know it by heart but even reading it again leaves me with a wall of letters and numbers and no pattern. It's alright though, I'll learn from the solution and I never once won a GA I entered from a puzzle so it's just for education purposes. I love to learn no matter how painful it is.

Check the puzzle guide, it's all explained in there somewhere... :) But if you don't know where to look you'll end up reading the whole thing, which may be more reading than you want to do for a dumb puzzle... :)

Thank you! :)

Well, this puzzle sure seems super difficult. Or it's so simple that it's beyond me. :(

But I am excited for the sequel! I'm hoping it turns out great!
