Giveaway: The Witcher 3 - Wild Hunt

Hey guys,

This is my first time giving away something. I'm giving away a copy of The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt since it is a great game that I really enjoyed. I'm doing this as a thank you to VORGundam for the very generous giveaway.

This is also my first time doing a giveaway, so I'll have to buy the game and add the winner to my Steam friends list in order to gift it. I'm not entirely sure how it works yet, but we'll figure it out! (If it's region locked, I'm sorry.)

Since he liked puzzles, I'm also giving you guys one.

Read the story carefully, including the Morse code.

To have a chance to win your comment must include:

1. A combined digit:

Add together every individual digit that appears in the storytext. For example, 61 = 6 + 1 and 599 = 5 + 9 + 9. (Hint: don't forget to decode the Morse code!)

2. Count the total number of meow's in the story. Don't forget to count any hidden in the Morse code. Use that number to pick a letter from your username. For example, if there are 2 meows, use the second letter of your username. Then make an English word that starts with that letter.

Yes, its a bit of a challenge/Hustle, but i think you'll manage!

Answer in the comments what the solution is.
I will keep it up for a bit till maybe the end of today.

Goodluck!

Edit : Winner: LocalFolivora

The answer was 88

(most forgot to count the 1's in the CW1, this often happens when people use ai aswell)

Resource list

This is a list of resources for learning morse code. Its currently incomplete and I would love to add more things that are either unique or something that many people advice/use.

Free/paid apps: all things listed here are available without paying, but some have a premium/paid version. In that case there will be a dollar/$ sign behind it.

#Serious learning:

LCWO

Morse Ninja Amazing amount of audio recourses for learning to copy morse code!

Vband for communicating with other people ( a lot of good CW operators are on here

RufZXP

 ______________________________________________________________________________________

#Specific Phone apps:

Morse chat $ Free/premium versions. Premium truly helps getting an understanding of how to get better at sending.

Morse mania $ An app designed for learning characters. There is a free version, but the paid version will give you many more options.

____________________________________________________________________________________________

#Fun Games with morse: Some of these help you learn. Some are just for fun.

SOS forgotten planet is video game where you send more code to open doors and flee from monsters. Its free as of now.

Morsle : a site like wordle but fun for morse copy training(a bit more advanced) good for a Dailey challenge.

MORSE $ video game where you destroy ships sending charachters. There is a paid version, but the demo is quite big and free.
