So far zero people have entered either of the GA's, or at least thats what you see when you check nick's profile

It seems nobody is even trying, so your chance to win is pretty high.:-) I posted a hint.

Was expecting something easier when clicking the title...

Have a bump!
Yet I just found a pattern, but no solution.

At least, how many 5-character strings should it be? One or two?

Just one solution will give you access to both giveaways.

Bump and good luck to those less dumb than I am. :D

I guess the great SG puzzle community is really dead for good. Let's try it with a hint.

Oh... but I'm sure it at least closed a lot of dead ends.

Would it violate the rules, if I posted my thoughts so far (not solved yet) here on the comment section, or would you mind? Still zero entries so far, do the GAs have.

Sure, since so few people are trying, we can make it something like a community puzzle. Have at least some fun. But try to be a bit obscure, so that others stiil need to put some thought into it.

Personally I think I can make sense of the two hints, the second one most of all (on the 1st one I'm still not entirely sure).
Seems like now that I'm seeing what I'm seeing I'd need something that would help me pick the right ones. I assumed I had what I needed but I don't get anything that makes sense to my single braincell at the moment, I'm using them in the wrong way most likely. I'm trying to remain as vague as possible sorry.
I have the feeling the answer is right there looking at me, but I'm overthinking things as usual.
(All this assuming I'm on the right path, which is a big guess 😅)

Let me ask this: Did you manage to make all lines have the same length?
Comment has been collapsed.
I am also still looking now and then into it and really spend quite some time figuring out how to solve this. So I do not think nobody is trying.
As posted above I have found some patterns, but couldn't solve the other "half". I also did not yet solve the "same length" problem even though I thought about it even before the hint was there since you could somewhat understand that from the riddle itself.
Let's see if I can make it. I just wanted to let you know, we are here we are trying. Puzzle community still present, do not be frustrated. But it seams to be a though challenge.
And I really appreciate you making this puzzle. The puzzle community can only life if it gets something to eat ☺️.

Thanks. I made a slight adjustment to the puzzle which might help you with the "same length" problem.
Comment has been collapsed.
Yes, I did, and your adjustment confirmed me I did it the right way.

Nice, I believe that is the hardest part of the puzzle. Now, you need to pick the right ones, as you said, but also arrange them in the correct order..

And we have the first solver -- it is actually possible to get there, guys!

Games: The Talos Principle + The Witness
Level: 3+
Region Restrictions: No
Time: Until 24th December
Hints: 1) all you need for solving this is to know the English alphabet
2) actually, all lines are of the same length
Puzzle:
C is the third letter of the alphabet.
The eleventh letter on this line is the N.
Letter A takes the ninth spot in here.
Do not look for any help on eighteenth line.
This is just as short as line fifteen is.
Try to read this quickly sixteen times.
I made more than ten puzzles for SG.
I hope for at least seventeen solves here.
This is solvable in under six days.
I created it in less than eight hours.
You can win at most two great games.
I wonder who works it out first of all.
Line seven isn’t shorter than this is.
Nor is four any bit longer than this.
Possibly fifth line brings insight.
Text here or line twelve has no import.
You adjust line fourteen if it is untrue.
Tough to say what is number thirteen for.
Edit: I realized the second line was a bit misleading, breaking the true concept of the puzzle, therefore I adjusted it
