So I finally passed the $1K mark today, and also created the first ever Bientôt l'été and The Bridge giveaways on SG this week. Think it's time to do my first forum giveaway! So I present you with...


¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º° Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ THE GIRLY PUZZLE Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ °º¤ø,¸¸,ø¤º°°º¤ø,¸


I didn't have much time (and I'm lazy), so I've kept the quizzes short and sweet. If people are struggling, I will post hints (hints for Pt. 1 in here, the others in first and second giveaways), so keep an eye out.

Theme is quite obvious - they're all questions relating to things a stereotypical girl would like. A couple of questions might be easier for people in the UK, but can be solved by anyone with a bit of Googling :)

There are 5 games to win in total: two pre-orders, a very popular DLC, its base game if not owned and a collection. Total value of $160, and none of them are bundle games.

Here's some music to listen to on your journey. It might help you out a little. It might not.

You risk losing man points, but if you get to the end I promise I'll send them back in the post :)

No leaking, sharing answers, or bitching in and outside of this thread. If I suspect a leak, I will investigate and delete the giveaway immediately if need be. Don't cheat and don't ruin anybody else's fun.

All 3 giveaways end on Valentine's Day (Thursday) at 9pm GMT and require $30.01 in contribution value.

Keep clucken, motherflockers.

Funny thing is I just recently wanted to ask in the forums how in the world anyone ever finds those entrycodes, because I sure as hell almost never find any. Except those rather obvious ones with capital letters or every sentence beginning with a the needed letter.

I feel like I'm about to have a brain aneurysm and I'm not even inside the door yet. For the past hour and a half I've been thinking girly. I feel like I'm on the right track with the code, I can see something that is most likely intentional in it, but I'm not getting any further. If I start thinking any girlier, I'm worried I might have a crisis of gender.

If you see something intentional, you're halfway there. Now see if you can find a pattern.

THIRD SET OF HINTS

The puzzle is hosted on itstoohard.com. If you're still stuck on getting there, think of how most users on SG hide things in threads, and then think girly.

Q1. I have lost a lot of money to this site.
Q2. Don't answer the question itself.
Q3. There is a clue somewhere on this page.
Q4. Split me in half before searching.
Q5. G'day mate!
Q6. Aesthetically unpleasing.

That first question could be almost anything though, right?

Aside from "establishing the mood", the multiplayer isn't essential to the story.

If it's so "kick ass" then why is no one ever on multiplayer? You can't really do anything just find a new item outside of the house go back in come out do it again and repeat. I thought that this would be similar to Journey from PS3, but ugh.

People are on multiplayer, it just doesn't seem to work (as I have tried with the OP). There's more to the game than it first seems though. I was wondering around for an hour looking for stuff and started to find more and more. Was quite interesting to find out the idea behind the game too.

I tried all sorts of stuff too, but it's really not that complicated! I guess what makes it more difficult is that you don't actually know what you're looking for lol.

Dear miss, question 4 on puzzle one is the only thing keeping me from continuing on in this stripping of my manhood. Please, give a hint, so I can continue on my makeover. I have tried what you hinted at, splitting it in half, but I only get one result, and it's wrong (The Notebook). I am not even sure if the answer should be a movie or a literal answer to "How many children?" I feel so lost and alone, like a frightened deer trapped in some dark hollow in a tree, all alone without its' mommy ;_;
