Solution: (Step by step)

  1. [HINT] First hint (here) "You might want to read the full post, but who am I to command you around."
  2. [HINT] Second hint (here) "I repeat, read "between" the lines and discover knowledge that is behind what humans normaly percieve."
  3. Solve the jidigi linked here in the thread, leading here.
  4. Click the link on the questionmark in the description leading to the SG-Tools and leading here.
  5. [HINT] (bad rats GA) "Trivia of the day: Did you know that the SG Profile shows all GAs someone created (even invite Only), you do not see the game or the link, but you see how many gibs there are." (= there might be more).
  6. [HINT] (here) "stats of the first week". (= there might be more).
  7. Look at the source code of the second Bad Rats GA (look behind^^) to find this.
  8. Follow train to reach some shit
  9. [HINT] "Trivia of the day: If you have a jigidi URL "...solve=XXX" you can change it to "....puzzle=XXX" to see a preview image of the full puzzle." (= Do NOT solve the puzzle^^)
  10. [HINT] "Where should I hide a link to a Jigidi anyways? Everyone sees these blue links, so hiding would be in plain sight..." (= search the blue links)
  11. Click on "check" from the SG Tools message leading to this jidi
  12. Use previous trivia to view picture without solving and follow it here.
  13. More or less straight foward train with some sidesteps.
  14. [HINT] "I think for the other games from the Bestof Bundle I must have still hundreds of copies to give"
  15. For some GAs follow the code in the image for more copys.

In total 22 GAs for 18 different games (3 unbundled) with a total of 35 copies (6 unbundled).
2 blacklists and 5 whitelists (during time of event, might be unrelated, but one blacklist is related for sure ;->).

I tried to make it ultra hard for bots and not the usual "clickthrough" ;->

I added the check webpage so people do not have to waste their time and I tried to give hints, if someone commented, to lead people to the end.

I hope all participants had fun and no one raged to much, when he got stuck at 7.

PS: two people solved the second puzzle, one by not reading properly and thinking he had to and one to show off ;-> (Do not take me to seriously here)

old statistic: 38 solves, 32 SG Tools passes and ... well just for randomness "8" so far.
current: 98 solves, 85 SG tools passes and 30 people reaching the "End" and 26 reaching the End (judged from GA entries).
(Contains 35 GAs (counting multi copy GAs) in total.)

Hi,

I finally finished testing ;->

You might want to read the full post, but who am I to command you around.

Here is a Jigidi made from a screenshot in Bioshock Infinite, when I was bugging through the walls and fell down from the city in the clouds ;->
Jigidi

If you feel unsure about doing the puzzle or not. Go here to find out if you are missing stuff.

The complete train is protected by SG-Tools (test here if you pass the rules) and is Level 2+. The giveaways are running until April the 6th (11am, for me). The first wagoon is not protected for easier typing.^^

Furthermore I just want to say, that I actually like people taking their time to read descriptions and especially people that read them so carefully they even read "between" the lines and discover knowledge that is behind what humans normaly percieve.

I repeat

read "between" the lines and discover knowledge that is behind what humans normaly percieve.

I do not have to celebrate anything special, but since I missed my cakeday, my last birthday (next is coming up in a few weeks again ;-<) the 3000 games and the 3333 games on steam without a train... here you go.

Anyways I hope you have fun ;->

Regards
KlappPC

PS: Actually wanted to proofread stuff again, but eh. Well here ja go people.

Thank you for the ride KlappPc, the SGTools gate works without error. ^^

Thank you also for the Jigidi puzzle, that will be for later. :-)

Well it's not so much of a "puzzle" ^^

Really only testing for a bigger event with better games in the upcomming weeks ;->
And since I never did anything with sgtools or jigidi so far ... ;->

But you are welcome. Despite being pretty sure you own all these games ;->

Testing is always a good plan buddy, I did several tests before and during my SGTools trains and thankfulness/gratitude isn't limited to owning the games or not. ;-)

Test was successful. However, it doesn't state much with just one game. Also DLCs and different packages might not work due to API's issues. But great idea!

Thanks for testing.

Jep, Might run into the same issues as SG itself. The data from your own store page is more detailed, so it should cover more (Basically when the app page shows "you own this" it's in that list).

Thinking about if I should tell how many games in each category (wishlist/not owned/ owned) are, but that would spoil it for hidden GAs ;->

I am not sure if it is really practically. But for the event I am testing for I plan on doing a big puzzle for starters and people might not like the idea to "work" a few hours just to get some leftovers they already own ;->

PS: It's 4 games in total ;->

Ooops, it's a train, not only one GA, I missed that in the first place.

Well, I was already in the situation (hours of jigidi solving just to see "already own"), therefore I'd really appreciate it.

going to thank you for the jigidi in advance since I love those things I don't even care what games are behind it. For that matter I spent 2 days solving progressivly harder jigidis even though I knew I already owned all the games.

Report:
Tool told me, "there are some games you do NOT own in this train (at least 1)."
But I do own all of them.

Thank you for testing.

For the SGTools AND the puzzle?
The game behind the puzzle is Neo Hardcorps.

Sorry for putting that missleading.

PS: 45minutes from now, if you want to enter.

No, the puzzle is fine. Oh, does the check include both SGTools AND the puzzle? Nevermind, then! :)
I had already entered, thanks for caring, though!
