Confused BUMP
Not in, but thanks and +1 for your generosity, Lifthrasil!
hopefully in (unlikely c/o bollocks guesswork)

but
+1 Lifthrasil
Inscrutable. Is it a phone number? Serial number? Man I'm stumped
Some small hints about what it is not: The answer does not lie in maths (this time) and the numbers are not part of the redeemable code and the minus signs/dashes are actually not important. They are just separators. I could have also user blanks or underscores or whatever. Like 2(3) 4 222
This has been tumbling around in my head for a day now. No lightning strikes yet.
Solution?

No, it's not music-related either. Another hint: it has in some way something to do with this giveaway. Well, this might not seem like much of a hint, but it might weed out some more obscure trains of thought. So it's not the birthday of my mother-in-law or the date of the end of the world or something like that.

Drat, so my initial guess of your local emergency response line was off :P

:-) Yes. My local emergency response line is 110 or 112. Or if I'm at work it is 3333.
What it looks like is a govt. form and all the copies you must make:)

Puzzle bump
Last hour(ish) bump-and-hint: not every one of the numbers is used for it's numerical value.
So. After we had a last minute entrant, it's time to let Dr. Random decide which of the three clever guys will get the games.

...


And the winner is: *drumroll* stika! Congratulations!


...


By the way, the solution was the sentence: "2 GoG entries containing 3 games for 222 rep"
So 2(3) meant "Two (or rather three)", the 4 didn't stand for it's numerical value but for the word 'for' and 222 was my rep when starting the giveaway. I thought it unfair that only the round rep numbers get all the giveaways and wanted to make one giveaway for a repdigit. :-)
Congrats stika and thanks again Lifthrasil.
