How many holes have you dug? I'm having trouble deciphering your clues.
Comment has been collapsed.
I found some letters, but they don't get me to a giveaway. Tried to bruteforce the right order of them, but nothing worked for me :/

No brute forcing should be required, the hints should help. Make sure you have the correct upper/lower case as well, that might be causing your issues if no permutations of the characters works, assuming what you have found is correct (they should be fairly obvious).

Nevermind, I've read the hints again and got it now :)
Thanks for your help!

Good thing you said which holes are yours. The hints for those two would have been useless if we didn't know they were yours.
Edit: nevermind, what I thought your hint meant does not seem to be correct.

Added you on Steam, I need to discuss something with you.

I'm pretty good at this sort of thing. Let's do this

I signed up, now to find a rabbit.
Youtube is a piece of shit ><

Wait, do I have to sign up in the participants list? I thought it was for people creating holes, but there are many names there.

Oh ok, I thought if you didn't sign up you weren't allowed to enter the hole giveaways. :P

It really bothers me that i haven't found 11 and 23 yet because they are entry holes so there are in this very thread.
Comment has been collapsed.
I found some leads but I don't have time to follow them right now, probably later tonight.

I'm a bit confused about the color coding myself. It seems to me that anything not orange should be green.
Comment has been collapsed.
green = outside this topic AND the rabbit holes' giveaways
Comment has been collapsed.
Uncoloured ones are found inside the other holes.
Orange denotes those that are found directly in this thread.
Green is those that are found outside of this thread but not in the other holes.
Purple is ambiguous as to the location, but indicates that an ITH puzzle is involved, which leads to the hole.

Hm, can't figure out 25 and 26 even though I found clues to them both.
Comment has been collapsed.
Hmm, 27 has me stumped for now. I've found some.. things.. some of which I've made into something usable, 1 or 2 of them though are either quite ambiguous or I just haven't figured them out at all. Even brute forcing some of the seemingly more likely possibilities with what I thought I had didn't go anywhere, so I'm probably wrong somewhere (or not brute forcing hard enough).
On a positive note, it has inspired me to fix and improve my brute forcing program, so it now no longer gives a false positive on both non-private contributor giveaways and private giveaways that are already closed, while at the same time reducing the number of lines of code I needed down to 49. Also I made a modified copy of the program to test for valid itstoohard.com puzzle URLs in case that ever becomes useful. So yay for that I suppose.

No brute-forcing would be required. No external pages except the ones directly linked.

if you can't find the hole...track down the rabbit who made it
Comment has been collapsed.
I know who's the rabbit, I'm currently raking his steam profile but to no avail :\
Comment has been collapsed.
I figured... I always had a general idea for every hole except for this one. Meh, I guess I'll figure it out eventually
Comment has been collapsed.
remember that you have a walkthrough for the first 22 holes...it will help you find your way home Tzell

I haven't found 11, 12, 25, 26 and 28(although that's new so I can't say if it's hard or not)
Comment has been collapsed.
But 25 and 26 I'm still not sure of even if I found clues to their whereabouts. Haven't given 28 a try yet.
Comment has been collapsed.
25 is maybe the hardest as I'm looking where the hints asks me to look, and I have still no idea.
Comment has been collapsed.
Neither did I until I found it (it is kind of obvious though). Remember that it is a green hole, i.e. entry point but not in this thread.
Comment has been collapsed.
I heard some had trouble with it, try it with a phone if you have one that is capable of it (I use neoreader on Android). Otherwise crop and set contrast.
Comment has been collapsed.
The problem with that is I start inferring bluffs and double bluffs, until I don't know whether to trust that deceptions are the deceptions they might be, or whether I'm supposed to not be deceived into thinking that. Presumably I have to trust something otherwise I have no information to go on at all.
Also things that look like clues seem to be all over the place to the point that brute forcing is impractical without more information, which presumably I am missing (not that I haven't tried about 1000 combinations of suspicious characters).

Rabbit Holes III - OVER
Thank you all for playing and helping out!
Reception wasn't as big as the past event, but I think it has to do with summer sale.
I thought summer sale distracts people from events such as this, but it seems to be the other way around.
Regardless - Alot of people played and contributed gifts and giveaways.
Hope you had fun!
See you next time!
