Happy Easter?
I'm stuck but I'm not giving up. Also I don't think I have the level :D

Hindsight is always 20-20. No need to beat yourself up.For all you knew, I could have been asking for origami, cause duh, I mentioned paper.
But I did wrtite that I didn't think it was gonna be too hard. While also serving as a clue, it was a true statement. 😅
And I think I know what happened. I never directly connected parts of url code with pieces of paper, making them seemingly separate issues for those bruteforcing. That's a blunder on my part. Sorry about that. If I make new puzzle, I'll try to think about such details a bit more.

A tip for the 'vellum sheets'? I VReally don't see the link between them...

Anything? I don't see the connection between the different cuts, I tried multiple VRoutes and combinations without success...

That's a tough cookie. On one hand, I understand your plight, but on the other, I don't intend to spoil the puzzle (and you're asking for half of the solution - that's a lot), escpecially knowing that ~3 out of 10 participants got through one way on another.
As such, I can only remind you to treat the whole thing as a puzzle, and pay attention to details.

I give up, I'll just wait for the solution when it's over...

Thanks. The problem was I never heard of this itstoohard website. I was aware of the 'too hard' hint, as well as the title of the queen song, but I didn't understand how to combine them. Same goes for the paper codes, I was looking to combine them in a 5 digit code for a giveaway, but it never made sense.

Crap I can't make it. Feeling super stupid right now :(
May I ask if these descriptions about "cuts" are here for something?

VReally
Vo Real
VeRy much so indeed
Vy R you so doubtful
Honestly, I don't think it's gonna be too hard, but hey, doesn't really matter to me. :3
I hope it's obvious, but no spoiling the eggs before they hatch.
Also, happy Easter!!!
Solutions below:
Part 1:
For part 1, you have to enter all 4 giveaways above, and find 2 characters in every one of them. They are all part of one, 8-character code, and your job is to put them together in proper order. Clues to that are characteristis of pieces of paper posted under each pair of characters: even, odd, outer, and inner, With 4 possible positions possible for each pair, even means 2nd or 4th, odd means 1st or 3rd, outer means 1st or 4th, and inner means 2nd or 3rd.
If you haven't figured it out, bruteforcing all combinations isn't off the table either. It's just 4! = 4x3x2x1 = 24 combinations. In case you did, you have only 2 possible combinations. A timesaver for observant people.
Next step is figuring out what do you even need said code for. Most of people around should be acquainted with itstoohard site, but in case 8 character long code wasn't clue enough, I included words "too hard" above to point you there anyway.
Ergo - solution is: http://www.itstoohard.com/puzzle/codehere + vG552wzv .
Part 2:
For part 2, you need to remember that you deleted something in order to get to original 4 giveaways in the 1st place. Those are lines from lyrics of "Bohemian Rhapsody". Whether you remember that tidbit, or google the lines, you shoud be able to find the song's title, which is the answer.
