how did you try to solve it? XD I really have no clue what to do here hahahah
Comment has been collapsed.
It is a cipher... i tried using one simple model to substitute the letters, but the message got all weird, maybe it isn't.

Be yourself, don't eat too much before going to bed, and the way I wrote it was to mislead. Those aren't five letter words.

already have the game,but what the da heck is this xd

Really wish I could solve this for the game, but I have seriously no clue what to do with this

Just hope it's not just a joke because I'm frying my brain in order to search for clues...

Haha, it's not a joke. I would have done it two days ago if it were.

Giveaway. Leaking solutions for riddles is forbidden ;-)
Comment has been collapsed.
I didn't mean to leak the solution, I just posted it here so you could tell me if it's right. Had no clue it could be the right answer and don't know what to do with it...

Just have a look of the overall link formatting of the giveaways. You'll find out. ;-)

I possibily would, but Aeshma has already shown me what to do. Thanks for your patience and sorry for almost killing the fun...

z is the only letter of the alphabet not present. Is that of any importance?
edit: p and n actually are

I don't usually write in forums, chats or anything on the internet, so I don't know how to add an image to this comment, but I'm sure you've seen that one with a baby saying "You can do it". (Act as if I had put it in this comment)
Just don't let me fool you with things that look like 5 letter words xD

Hahaha sure thing.... to your problem of formatting comments

but... really.. i tried some.. maybe in the wrong way haha... but i'm not good with ciphers... ;/ so, my hands are down.

you actually need the [ ] before. (without spaces)

I'll put hints from time to time if people don't solve it because I wanted to give something, and the more people in the giveaway the better.
So, those spaces between the five letters "words" are there to mislead. And, someone pointed out that there weren't any z, but you can have a z if you put it where the d or the p letters are. Wink wink
Comment has been collapsed.
I think it's easier than you might be thinking it is.
You can exchange the b and the n, the r and the y or the i and the a, for example

Another hint: Try to form a word with the bold letters

hooray ! I'm a genius ! not. And the fun thing is that I know a little bit about it.
I still can't see the connection, i thought as much after your previous hint but it led me to further confusion. I just can't seem to understand the logic behind the riddle :P
Comment has been collapsed.
Well, maybe it doesn't have to much logic. Live and learn, next time I'll try to do something that makes more sense.
Mayor hint? or maybe something more confusing? It is the opposite of what you did
As much as I love puzzles, riddles and things like that, i get really REALLY frustrated when I can't solve something, and the thing is that I did this GA as a puzzle just to make people think at least a little.
If you (anyone) can't o don't want to keep trying things or you give up but want to have a chance to get the game, here is the solution -> that was already the binary code, with vowels and consonants
Comment has been collapsed.
brainy? So we have to use our brain... Thanks ;->
Got it after the "do the opposite tip" Maybe spoiled a bit to much, but recently started with puzzles and I would never guessed that without tips^^. Was quite fun though and brought me to the border of insanety.
It confused the hell out of me, that there were 5 As and only 4 of the other vocals and every consonant only once.

have you guys figured it yet ?

By this time 3 people have already figured it out.

I was looking for a key but tried "gift" as a key. After the clue I tried with the right one. I don't usually padticipate in this kinds of giveaways but I found this one interesting since we done this 3 years ago on university

This reminds of Carl Sagan's Cosmos Episode 12: Encyclopædia Galactica
æ -> nice letter here
“Many had tried and failed to read the hieroglyphics. One group of scholars thought they were kind of a picture code full of metaphors, mostly about eyeballs, wavy lines and animals, birds, especially birds, lots of birds. There were those who deduced from the hieroglyphics that the Egyptians had been colonists from China, there were those who deduced the other way around.
There’s one (Champollion) who, from one single look at the Rosetta Stone deduced its meaning. He said that the quickness of his decipherment enabled him “to avoid the systematic errors which invariably arise from prolonged reflection. You get better results, he was saying, if you don’t think about it too much.”
Man... I love Carl Sagan...

So I guess you dudes struggling to find the answer are going far beyond it, it's relatively simple!

I think I'll just... go sleep somewhere now. o.O Before mind explodes since apparently looking too deeply.
Have a bump anyway.

Day 2
So far the words i have deciphered are
"go back jump-view iraq
die xenos filth"
Now I'm left with these letters which form a strange loop
aeouaouau
The meaning of those words remains a mystery...

Omg i have an exam tomorrow and I am all thinking of this puzzle
Till now i found vowels
FIrst arrangment is : io uae ou aei ouae io ua
Second arrangment is : ae io uaei ou aei ouae io ua
I did a little research and found out that seperate vowels have its own word
For example :
A - E - I - O - U (ATENlSODUS)
A - E - I - OU (ANNELIDOUS)
A - E - IO - U (ARTERIOSUS )
A - EI - O - U (TAPEINOTl!S)
AE - I - O -U (CAESPITQSUS)
A - EI - OU (MARVElLOUS)
AE - I - OU / AE - IO - U (PRAEDIOLllM)
A - E - IOU (ABSTEMIOUS)
A - EIO - U (PAREIOPHUS)
AEI - O - U (AEILNODUS)
AE - IOU (AERIOUS)
AEI - OU / A - EIOU (HAREIOUS)
AEIO - U (GAEIOCHUS)
AEIOU
That's enough for today .. I will go study for my exam XD

When this is finished please post the logic of the solution :v
Comment has been collapsed.
Hmmm, what can binary be converted to in order to get only 5 letters/numbers? Am I missing anything? I suck at this...
Comment has been collapsed.
So do we get the exact code when we solve or should try some alternatives for upper cases etc.?
Comment has been collapsed.
I found Steamgifts back in February and, since then, I've wanted to do something for you to solve. So here it is:
abcde fgioh uaeij kolum anepi qouae riost vuwax
The game is Half Life 2. A gift, not a key, so I'll add the winner in Steam.
Edit: I guess you already know it but you are looking for a 5 letters/numbers code.
Edit 2: I wrote some hints in comments if you are stuck.
Edit 3: forgot to say: the giveaway finish in April 17th, so you've got plenty of time.
