Is it one word or a phrase?
The first 2 people solved it at the exact same time(less than a minute difference actually 3 second difference) after other 16 players couldn't figure it out for 20 minutes and 90 attempts.
Given up on this, made no sense to me after trying enough words that made more sense given the prompt, and people are working in groups to solve it so I'm probably just going to avoid 2solveme puzzles from now on after this one.

I solved it completely on my own if that's what you're implying. Are you really that surprised about people solving a relatively simple puzzle minutes after it was created?

Not talking about you, I think you were 3rd if I'm right.

I was either first or second, because I was one of the ones who solved it at almost the exact same time with another person. Me and the other dude made a comment on the landing page

Then yes I'm talking about you and I don't believe you.

¯_(ツ)_/¯
A three second difference would mean we would have had to input our answers at the same exact time. Now how do you think that would work if I was indeed working in a group and one of us found the answer? Then it would take more than 3 seconds, no?

You can solve jigidis without having an account, then it doesn't count you (i believe)

Sometimes less is better but sometimes smaller puzzles are the hardest ones, if you dont get it right, there isn't another question to see if there is a correlation or something, i am just lost with this one haha, if possible could we get a little hint? Like for example, does the jigidi have anything to do with the 2solve.me? i would ask a more specific question of something in the 2solve.me but i dont wanna ruin the puzzle either, i just don't get it.
Imma come back to this later tho... Thanks for the jigidi!

Bump for solved. It is so easy a foreigner like me get the answer in few tries!

Is that irony? It sounds like irony :D I'm not from a country with an abc channel either and I don't get it!
Do you have any hints? Is the answer related to the people in the jigidi?
Comment has been collapsed.
I think the picture might be the solution but as a european, I have trouble knowing whats going on on ABC or who these people are. Also the cifer/cider spelling as mentioned by 'Volcanic' is confusing.

These are actors from shows that are no longer on TV. All from the 80's / 90's, I think.
Family Matters, St. Elsewhere, Three's Company and.... Sabrina the Teenage Witch, I think.
None of these show names are the correct answer.

Do not think too hard is actually a very big clue already.
I think saying I am foreigner is pretty big clue, you just need to deduce that.
Also notice about things I didn't say; why I choose to reply to you?
Comment has been collapsed.
You won't just guess it, it's not word association, and the identities of the people don't matter. If you're on the right track, you'll know it.

Easy jigidi, thanks
Not familiar with that show though
and is the f in cifer intentional?
No clue what the answer to the riddle is after a few tries.

Heh, sneaky sneaky. Merry Christmas, Happy New Years, and Happy Holidays.

Would you mind sharing what`s the game being given away, and if there are any level restrictions? The jigidi was painless but the quiz is proving to take enough time from my life that I'll only continue if I know that there's a good prize behind, not a game that I already own. Thank you and happy holidays!

Not sure about revealing the games but I think it's safe to reveal that the level restrictions are all Level 2 with no apparent regional restrictions.
Comment has been collapsed.
I genuinely don't understand why people would not reveal the games. At least personally, if I'm gonna spend time doing a jigidi (some like DrTenma's take up to an hour), I think it's respectful to know what I'm using this time for. But again, that's just me
Comment has been collapsed.
It's generally considered polite, yes, but not mandatory, and sometimes people like to keep the treasure at the end a surprise. I once had a puzzle with the game at the end as the solution so obviously I couldn't reveal the game beforehand. At the end of the day, a giveaway's a giveaway and it's fair that the circumstances are at the discretion of the person setting up the puzzles and giveaways.

I was once banned for 48 hours from the site just for confirming a game in a train "hidden" behind a Jigi so I can confirm, it's not worth the hassle.

Of course it depends if the op is running multiple invite only giveaways for different events but usually you can just check op's sg profile and will see level restrictions as well as when the giveaways will end.

In my experience, Jigidis and 2solve.me tend to hid giveaways that are Invite Only. Those don't show the game being gifted until the GA is over
Comment has been collapsed.
Yeah you won't see the games until the giveaways end on the op's sg profile. For that you can only ask op to share that info.

I only recognize one character from the jigidi. So I'm stuck

im stuck on a secret word... absolutely zero idea, im from belarus, any hints?
Comment has been collapsed.
I have absolutely no idea how to solve the question. And there are no hints (that I know of) that can help get me there. Thanks, anyway.

Merry Christmas!
Weirdly enough I found it :P (ps. for those having trouble, it's nothing complicated, don't go looking for clues, just "feel" the vibes in a way :P )
Comment has been collapsed.
I got it! Seriously friends, don't overthink it like I did (googled, researched faces, looked into decoding, etc.)! Everything you need is right there!
Thank you for the puzzle!

Does the picture have anything to do with it? (lemme know if you dont wanna answer, no drama!)
Comment has been collapsed.
I don't want to be too explicit or give away too much but don't overthink it! The answer is there and you can guess as many times as you like, since it isn't case-sensitive, just keep trying! It really doesn't take a Sherlock or hard work to get it and I actually groaned out loud when I got it. It's always the straightforward or simple puzzles that trip me up like a dork, lol. Don't worry, you can absolutely get it with what's there!
Comment has been collapsed.
I think what's bothering me the most is being confused about what to take into account - the picture is the greatest offender, but also: do I want the sherlock title? the cider title? is it a reference to something?
i hate feeling like i have so many leads and none at all at the same time :(

It took me a while but I can finally say: bump for solved. Thanks for the cool puzzle!

bump for solved. Don't understand the answer, but I got it.

this riddle is dumb and stupid, been hours and just doesn't make sense, i'm not a brit so i don't get whatever local reference it's pointing to, we neither have abc channel in south america.
Comment has been collapsed.
OMG! I burned my brain overthinking this puzzle and how each part referenced a letter or number as upper case/lower case...
Thx for the "fun" XD
Merry Christmas! o/

Merry Christmas!
I made this puzzle last year, but didn't post it here. There's not much to it, but I hope you find something you enjoy!
The games are listed below... and apparently I flubbed up the end time for Wayout... sorry!
SOLUTION
The Secret Word was "GIFT".
There were actually several ways to come up with the secret word.
Familiarity or some Googling may have hinted to you that the faces were those of actors who all starred in shows that were a part of ABC’s TGIF, which is an anagram of GIFT. In addition to this, “abc Special Presentation!” was a play on words in the sense that “Presentation” is closely related to “present/gift”. It was also an indication that “abc”, or the alphabet, was being presented in a special way, a cipher -- a Dancing Men cipher to be precise, as hinted at by the flavor texts -- "You don't have to be Sherlock to solve this!" and "There's nothing quite as good as holiday specials with a cup of hot cifer!"
Besides googling/researching faces or certain key phrases such as "Sherlock + cifer/cipher", some people seemed to have had luck guessing the word, either randomly, based on the gift in each hand, or through brute force.
Merry Christmas, and congratulations to the winners! I hope some of you enjoyed the puzzle -- the next one will be more tedious!
