I am about to hit the $500 CV mark (as soon as my current giveaway completes), so I thought I would do what anyone else would do to celebrate: spend more money! er... I mean, make another giveaway! So, after having checked the wishlists of the SG users, it seems that Borderlands 2 is still pretty popular. OK, we'll go with that game, then.

This will be a Hunter giveaway. Unlike puzzle giveaways, you will not need to be super smart or have esoteric knowledge or be able to mind-read. Unlike group giveaways, you will not need to "know the right people." Unlike giveaways with a high CV requirement, you will not need to be wealthy. And unlike hidden giveaways, you will not need specialized training to get to the giveaway. It will be there right in front of your face. O8XNz. How soon will depend on you.

For those of you who have not yet done a Hunter Giveaway, here is how it works:
--The original post will announce the coming giveaway so that you may prepare for it.
--The start of the giveaway (and game name) will then be announced. The giveaway will be available, and my avatar will change.
--Throughout the giveaway, a "trail" will be planted which leads to the giveaway. You just have to find/notice it and follow.

In effect, you only need two things to find this "hidden" giveaway: patience, and an attention to detail. Every person should have sufficient amounts of both to enter if they wish (and have the points). Some people will be better stalkers than others and may find the giveaway earlier, but everyone who wants to will be able to find it, eventually.

The first time I made a Hunter giveaway, we had 13 entries. The second time, we had only one entry. How many will enter this time? Time will tell....

As always, please no spoilers or hints in your forum postings.

Well, what are you waiting for? It's time to GET THING.

[EDIT: This OP led to this old giveaway, which led to this old posting, which led to this old giveaway, which led to this closed topic, which led to the giveaway itself. A few people pounced on the closed topic as soon as it was posted. Various others caught the trail at different points as it was being planted. There were some people who simply waited until late before they started following the trail pointed to in the OP.]

Final Number of Entries = 15

It's similar in that one breadcrumb leads to the next, but it different in that the trail is easy to follow (once you find it). All you really need is to be patient, and you should be able to manage that. Check the prior two Hunter's Giveaways to see how it works.

I found part one. Now I have no idea where to go. And I'm an avid user of that website, too. D:

You're barking up the wrong tree. Otherwise, there would be four entries, not three.

I'll give it a shot. Only one question tho. Will the breadcrumbs disappear over time or no?

No, the breadcrumbs do not disappear. Some people will pick up the trail earlier than others, depending upon their hunting skills, but this type of giveaway is mostly about patience and persistence. Three people were waiting in ambush, so they attacked almost instantly.

Bumping will increase the exposure, which will increase the number of people playing, which will increase the number of entries, which will increase your competition for the prize. Are you sure you want that? )

On second thought, no. Alright, I'll stop bumping the thread.

Are you able to follow the trails of the past giveaways to their respective giveaways?

Ok im confused I found the borderlands 2 giveaway you mentioned as the starting point but it is already close....is the hunter giveaway closed too? I dont think so because i see in your profile you have a private giveaway with 3 entries still up for a week....my confusion is that there is no clue in the borderlands giveaway and I'm not sure how exactly tracking the clues helps enter the private giveaway...kinda new to this thing.

BTW NOT looking for a hint or anything just kinda of a suggestion on how to track the clues (like you must enter all the giveaway hinted at to unlock the private one??) or if there is a certain giveaway option in the interface I should be using?

I linked the two previous giveaways so that you could see the mechanics of a Hunter giveaway. You should be able to follow both "trails" to their respective giveaways. If you can, then you should also be able to manage with this latest giveaway.

Wait... "Throughout the giveaway, a trail will be planted" does this mean more will be added to the trail the longer we wait?

Hmm, I don't see it yet right now, but by hitting the 500cv mark, you should get a badge for that on your sg profile. As you have more likely than not already seen on the profiles of others that hit it before you. :)
