Hi everyone. You've probably noticed those puzzle giveaways where you have to find out every letter either by all night googling or you need to be an active gamer for last 30 years. Well...I'll do it a bit different :)

My band and I are making a record and we try to promote it (and raise some funds, but I don't require you to donate :)).
I set up a private giveaway with link: http://www.steamgifts.com/giveaway/XXXXx/ but I don't want to complicate the finding of those letters, I'd just like you to visit our campaign page at IndieGoGo and find the following letters:

-L
-P
-R
-T
-the letter that is present in our band's name and it's not U M B L K A :P

I trust you won't cheat ;) If we see an increase in visits I'll make another giveaway with a bit trickier questions, please share the word if you like our music :)

Please keep the puzzles this simple. I much prefer it this way.

I tried going to MySpace to listen to more, but it had some unclear complaint about my flash player (tried both FF and IE). If others are getting this then this will certainly slow down contributions.

It would be nice to see a $1 contribution level even without a perk (or a perk like getting a thank you note). I'm willing to pay $1 just to support you without hearing more, and maybe others will, too. For example from the printrbot project:

"Pledge $1 or more

124 Backers

You'll receive our sincere gratitude and your name proudly displayed on the Printrbot.com website "Supporters" page."

I think you should do this too. Some people are willing to donate 1$ just to support the project and not request anything in return.

Yes I agree, the Myspace is crap but I can't do anything about it, I'll deferentially try to upload songs to some more reliable site.

You're right about 1$ perk, I completely forgot about it, even though there is no minimum set right now (you can easily donate 1$) it would probably help if it'd be more obvious :) I'll fix it right away, thanks!

Didn't realise it was possible to donate any amount. Never used that site before (the example I used, printrbot, was from Kickstarter, and I'm not all that familiar with it, either).

Anyway, I donated the $1 and didn't enter the giveaway, because I don't think I'll play this game even if I win it.

Thank you, every dollar helps :)
I strongly believe that we should make everything as clear as possible so adding a 1$ perk only helps :)

I seriously almost didn't get the "Puzzle". Yes, that's how much I suck at these. lol

Your pretty good, though not my kind (Which quite frankly I don't even really listen to music. Yes, I'm crazy like that.).

The reason people are having trouble is because the instructions aren't clear so here's what he's asking you to do:

1) he gives you the template: XXXXx (i.e. 4 upper-case letters with one lower-case letter)

2) he then gives you the first four letters of the code: LPRT

3) he then tells you that the last remaining letter is a letter in his band's name (i.e. Umbilikal) and that it is NOT one of the following: U, M, B, L, K, or A.

Now no one has an excuse not to get the "puzzle".

P.S. I already own this game so that's why I didn't enter.

long story short: in the first half of 20th century (before, during and after the world wars) a lot of Slovenians (his parents included) emigrated over the ocean, mostly to USA, Canada, Australia and Argentina. When he was studying he decided to come here and stayed.

Music was pretty good. Maybe a little light for my tastes, but it is certainly something I would be happy listening to. If I had a source of disposable income I might even have donated a little, unfortunately this is not the case.

Best of luck to your band and thank you very much for the giveaway. :)

When I started playing with those guys I had the same opinion but it grew on me, it's fun making this kind of music when everyone in the band has at least a part of metal/hard rock in their blood ;)

Thanks
