Multi-game giveaway puzzle II

Closed

Welcome to the second multi-game giveaway puzzle!

The structure is similar to the first one. You must solve each stage of the giveaway to advance to the next. Each challenge begins on the hour. You will have 45 minutes to solve the puzzle and unlock the private giveaway. After the giveaway ends, hints will be added to help those that are stuck. Rewards will be revealed prior to each stage start.

Unlike last time, there are no URI's to try to figure out and generate. You answer with full words (not case sensitive) and get immediate correct/wrong responses on each question. Hopefully this will take out some of the complexity and frustration from previous puzzles. It also prevents brute forcing the answers.

Click here for Stage 1

The giveaway is over.

Stage 1 reward: Shatter (there were 55 entries)
Stage 2 reward: Trine 2 (there were 87 entries)
Stage 3 reward: Borderlands: Game of the Year Edition (there were 50 entries)
Stage 4 reward: Dead Island (there were 68 entries)
Stage 5 reward: Alan Wake Collectors Edition (there were 9 entries)
Stage 6 reward: Kingdom of Amalur: Reckoning (there were 52 entries)
Bonus draw: Snuggle Truck (there were 65 entries)

Thanks for playing guys! I hope I didn't torture you too much. Some of those questions were mean, I know, but just remember: I'm your gummy bear.

Stupid 500 Errors...

we only got 15 mins to answer the stage 1 cuz 10 mins were delayed by the site in the beginning and then 5 mins from the ending time of the giveaway

12 years ago

Maybe 15 mins to validate but you could search for answers in the meantime while the site recovered.

So... now we've got 30 minutes until the next one?

You're extending the time, arent' you?

So really instead of 30 minutes we got like 10-15. :/

12 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

No, you got 30. Not only did I post the questions below so people could work on it while waiting for the site, Jexel even gave hints.

uhh, where are these hints?

The questions are:

Question: In what year was Pong originally released?" yadda yadda

He was asking about the hints you claimed had been given.

12 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

Right, but where are these hints that Jexel gave out?

12 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

Oh, in that case, they're on the server (which is perfectly fine right now). I didn't even notice them until after it had ended, so that's why I didn't add them.

12 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

Those hints were just added after the giveaway ended (apparently). Where did you see them before hand then?

12 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

"Unlocking the hints 5 minutes early since the server died temporarily and this is just a warm up. Refresh the page to see them."

12 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

Thing is, it takes a lot longer than 5 minutes just to successfully refresh the page.

12 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

I guess I was one of the lucky ones to still be getting 500 errors and never saw any of those hints until the giveaway had been over for several minutes.

Hopefully rd. 2 will go better for me.

12 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

Site was down for me for 25 minutes so even with answers I couldn't get in...

12 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

You sure did post the questions 5 minutes after it first went down, but knowing the questions doesn't really help people who can't submit the answers.

12 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

This.

12 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

Yes! Next one is Trine 2! I want that game so badly.

12 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

Sorry about the errors. Not much I can do about that. Its a basic hosting service. If you answer a question correctly though the server will remember. No need to refill those ones if you have to refresh. Just continue on and you'll get your link when you're done.

12 years ago

I'm still getting server error 500. Is time continuing to tick down while all this is happening?

12 years ago

I am stuck at stage 1, only the question 4 about number of levels... :-(

12 years ago

Use wikipedia xD

I'm stuck on the last one D:

I got it but Wikipedia (English version) doesn't help.

this

12 years ago

nah, it helps!

12 years ago

The answer was in wikipedia actually. Took me a while to figure it out lol.

Yeah same here. I skimmed it and didn't think much of it.

When's Stage 2?

Each challenge begins on the hour.

I'm still getting 500 - Internal server error(though I found the answers)...

12 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

Do a full refresh of the page to see the hints if they're not showing up. They're just below the question.

I'll be upping the time for each stage to 45 minutes due to the flakey nature of the server. Unfortunately the Trine 2 one has already begun, so that will still be 30 minutes. Maybe I'll start it a few minutes early.

12 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

The second one has already begun? I thought you said each challenge begins on the hour.

12 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

Wait, the Trine 2 one has already started? Where's the question link? I thought you were going to post it in the last giveaway :[

12 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

no, no the giveaway. because they have to been at least an hour long, i start them early.

12 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

Yeah, sorry, somebody explained that to me.

12 years ago

I tried all the logical responses via World of Warcraft, but none of them work :[

Anyone else having a problem with this?

12 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

Me too... Not sure what else to do with it. And I tried google too :-S

12 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

I'm stuck on that one too, I'm not sure whether to try races or classes or something third.
I've even consulted my friend who plays WoW since vanilla and his guesses are exactly the same as mine (and wrong) :(

I know this one was cheap a bit because i think there are multiple correct answers.( i posted about it in the giveaway link)

12 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

Ahm, are you sure about #5 in the second stage? I tried both songs the bush is singing right before/while and after he killed the invisible swordsman. But I get "Wrong" both times.

12 years ago

This

12 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

That and at least one other question (I'm thinking of #2, still haven't solved it) in there could have multiple valid answers, but it seems that only one specific answer is accepted in each case - a bit frustrating.

12 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

Yeah. I got this one but now I'm stuck on the other, arguably more vague one :P

12 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

nvm, I'm in :D

12 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

I got the answer for that one easily. Listen carefully.

12 years ago

The problem is that song is known by several different names.

12 years ago

Nevermind, I got it.

12 years ago

Aaand now internal server error.

And for fucks sake, I just got the answer but it won't..

OK! Got in. Jesus. Going to calm down now. Right.

You actually got parts 1 and 5 of 2? I was sure it was low bridge, I even watched the sequence of the movie to find out. But the site says I was wrong.

And of course, part one made no sense to me at all.

I'm still stuck there, just have to get the right combination of colors or whatever dragons
