It just looks like a load of bull to me. Good luck, puzzlers!

I'd be interested to see if anyone actually gets this, or if this is another one of those cases of someone conflating Incredibly Specific with Intellectually Challenging.

Of course. Look for the previous parts ;)
I've never made a puzzle which couldn't have been solved by a newcomer. They all require above-the-average intelligence perhaps, but they do provide all the information needed and are perfectly logical. Prior knowledge of some things certainly helps in some cases, but it is never mandatory -- one can safely assume everyone here has the access to the global network.
Ah, and also I should say one of the active giveaways had been created by mistake, so it's not relevant to this puzzle.

Considering you've got a total of ten entries spread over seven private giveaways... I'm starting to wonder if maybe you underestimate just how much simpler it is to create a puzzle than to solve one.

Oh, my eyes are open now! Why in the world should a handful of really smart people get all the prizes?..
Truth is, this way I can have great respect for all the solvers, that being very much my desire. I prefer to give to people who deserve the gift in my eyes -- the people who are sharp enough, in these cases. And you should know that creating a problem that is challenging but solvable, creative but short, transparent but interesting, self-contained but leading to new discoveries requires at least as much intelligence and diligence as needed to break it open, and I believe most of the puzzle-makers here, as well as most of the solvers, know it to be true.
People who follow the Quick Fixes line, by the way, know perfectly well what all those zero-entry giveaways are about.

If you want to make tricky puzzles, all power to you. There's no harm in making people think!
Anyway, gifter's game, gifter's rules.
Once it's over, would appreciate you posting the solution on here though :D

Until you gloated.
Now I'm starting to wonder if the URL was leaked...

I have broken my brain. :| Nothing I have tried has worked which is quite soul destroying as I know what it is. So, I will have to give up before I start eating my desk. blargh. Though I have three days...So may come back to it after I've cooked the kids their dinner. lol

No clue as usual. I guess I'm kind of borderline when it comes to this things at least.

I don't think I have a tool to understand what this cow is saying. I think I know what tool it ought to be, but I haven't a clue how to use them.

I'm still trying to solve the previous one. I must have missed something.

You know, recently I've got tired of my desktop's old case, it being too cumbersome and blocky, so I decided to swap it. But having grown quite nostalgic by today -- you know, these new cases are really too damn sleek and big -- I switched back grudgingly, settling for a familiar look and feel. So I can only recommend trying the same if you aren't at all satisfied with yours.
Ok, this had to be somewhat esoteric.
