Actually I wanted to write this in a steam comment and give you the choice what to do with me and my questions about your puzzle.
But it excelled the allowed amount of content.

So I thought your 1st giveaway would be an appropriate place for this.
If you don't want me to ask this here (or don't want to answer) I will of course delete it.

But now for some (got quite a lot) questions that came up in the meantime.


Even a 'totally wrong idea' will help :)

• I really expected a hint in your first giveaway. Maybe you want to put this conversation there, I think that would be a fine idea^^?
• a) While I understood pretty early that your first hint is a hint I don't understand what to with it and what bugs me most: From other hard puzzles I know every mistake is intentional. Is there a reason why the never is written in lowercase despite being at the start of the sentence?
• b) About the nr 6 It's mirrored but that gives me a two more options: horizontally and vertically = two sets. Is this the right way or does it express another meaning and I have to leave the picture as it is?

Now some more direct questions which are bugging me:
• c) Is the number of words/letters in your hint sentence important?
• d) Does each of the four lines directly relate to one answer field?
• e) similar to a) I'm no native speaker but I think 'leave always games secret' should be 'always leave games secret' but am I right to think that was intentional?
• f) Do the 1,2,3,4 in the question field have any important meaning?

• g&h)

Get a minute eventually to inspect the lines.

Is there a deeper meaning to the word minute? & Does 'lines' refer especially to these few sentences or/and also to something else (the picture)
• i) I know this was asked before and you said ITH 1 has nothing to do with the picture... but with the puzzle as well?
• j) Would you say that instead off 'never ask to openly say it' -> openly spell it would be more appropriate here
•h) Asking j more directly as I'm doing this for the last couple of hours:
Do have have to write out the numbers somehow?
•k) Why did I label the above question h) again? No no please answer that one here.
• L) Also a more direct question is the answer(s) a number, a word, letters something mixed up?
• m) Something you don't want to answer but my frustration: Arghh what do do with these numbers? see Question j) and h) do I even need the numbers?

• n) redsweater's comment:

Still-working-it-all-out

Is there a tip (v-w-x-y-z?) hidden in there, if yes for which part?

• o) Anything else you might want to tell me/us to be able to crawl further?

And at this point a Thank You for creating this puzzle&giveaway and hopefully for answers as well :)

Ah! Nice thinking asking questions here ^^ Too many though ;P

Just work horizontally, 4 lines > 4 answers.
There are encoded hints in those phrases, that will tell what the flags are, what the numbers are, what the answers are.
The mistake you pointed out in question e) is intentional.
"never" is after ":" so grammatically it should be lowercase, as far as I know, but you can consider it like "Never" if it helps you more.
The meaning of the words there is secondary. Like I said somewhere else: it was just an excuse. The fact that I managed to fit in the hint about nr.6 is a plus.
Redsweater's comment isn't hiding anything.
It's been named ITH 1, just because there's an ITH 2 too.

No more questions. I wonder how many people will think of coming to this page.

Thank you very much :)
cries in a corner

When you were on the right track days ago but can't make something out of it, because you can't separate words properly or better should not try to separate them. cries again Not helpful little thing---> , ^^
