Thanks, I tried by hand for a while, got lost in the combinations and wrote a python script to output all the possible combinations:

a = "rgJIc"
b = "gQEV1"

use = [0,0,0,0,0]

def next(use):
    indices = [-1, -2, -3, -4, -5]
    for i in indices:
        if use[i] == 1:
            use[i] = 0
        else:
            use[i] = 1
            break
    return use

for i in range (32):
    use = next(use)
    out = "www.steamgifts.com/giveaway/"
    for i in range(5):
        if use[i] == 0:
            out = out + a[i]
        else:
            out = out + b[i]
    print out

Edit: damn code formatting, just assume that the " text is a " character.

I kind of wish it was a real cryptographical puzzle instead of "bruteforce these permutations". But still fun.

I just went with manual attempts and found it kind of quick (first wrote clue 1 with 1 letter from clue 2, then with 2 letters and found it =P)

Thanks for the 3 giveaways

I guess I'm in good company with the others that wrote a script to find the URL.
