I originally made this post in thanks for 300 giveaways entered due to your generosity and in honour of my 300th post. I now have my first giveaway won to add to that. I believe w00t is in order. Now, to solve the puzzle for my third giveaway and my first puzzler!

For those of you not in the know on how to deal with these, you just answer my questions and you type in the first letter or number of the answer into the correct X slot of the website address. If the answer is capitalised (say, a person's name), so is the letter. Get all of the answers right and you get into the giveaway. The game is King's Bounty: Platinum Edition, which is worth 35 points, and it ends in two weeks. Google should be all you need. Good luck!

  1. In the series A Song of Ice and Fire, Tywin Lannister retreats his army to what location after being driven back by the armies of Winterfell?

  2. The opposite of death is? (Clarification: death, not dying)

  3. If you kill the next boss, who will be happy soul?

  4. If you ask for a trade on this site rather than on this one, what sort of prehistorical weapon will you be banned with?

  5. 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 1 X 0 = ?

If you think I should change something on this to make it simpler (or harder, if you have an idea), then friend me on Steam and I'll talk to you first time I can.

Edit: Answers are here.

Just a simple question (no interest in the giveaway):
Did you miss the brackets in 5? Or was that intended?

It sure seems like it, but out of the "alternatives" i see, none of them work, which could mean there's another mistake somewhere else, or i'm still screwing that up hehe.

It might be one of the others. Another common issue is number 4 (in mistakes anyway. 1 and 3 are tied for "WTF am I Googling here?!"). Oddly, only one person got stuck on 5 so far.

I know of at least 12 people got stuck on 5 that added me on Steam asking for the answer. Didn't supply anyone with it though.

At least they were slightly more slick than the ones going to Yahoo Answers. Thanks for reminding me about the giveaway, too. Forgot all about it...

How the heck do you get stuck on 5??? =/

Because of the way it was written, it may not be obvious.

Nope. 3 is damn easy and 1 is also very obvious if you're searching the right things. :D

Get the fuck out. If you win the game, it's getting fucking rerolled. I don't even care if it was the simplest answer.

In case you're worried, you're okay. I'll gift it to you happily if you win. I'm not going to punish you for someone leaking part of the solution.

45 minutes. Now I'm giving away a legit clue. Your answer for four most likely contains a prefix. Not needed. Just the weapon. :)

Those were my answers what the fuuuu

I guess it's because I didn't capitalise Life or Hammer..

They weren't capitalised.

It could be you ran into an unfortunate server glitch. Very occasionally, I get a puzzle right beyond all doubt, but it still says it's an invalid giveaway code. When I happen to try again later, the same code works perfectly.

Failed 2 and 4. Should have taken the obvious answer on 2, I guess. :)

Can't believe it, I got the right code several times (with the right capitalization), but every single time it was bad giveaway error :(

Oh, and opposite of death is birth, by the way :P :D Life comes between birth and death, so there really is no opposite to it!? Except in some context, than it would probably be Forever Alone (get a life) xD

Good puzzle, only wish I didn't get screwed by the error :( Thanks anyway!

Death, as in the state of already being dead, not dying. Life was correct.

For every death, there is a birth - balance of the universe.

Dying - Immortality

Dead - Alive

Death - Birth

Life - !?

Alive = life.

Also, births > deaths.

Isn't alive the state of human condition? But life is a stage between birth and death, where you are alive?
