I'm posting today and in the next Fridays a series of private giveaways for forum members. Your SteamGifts account must be at least 3 weeks old and you can enter only one of the giveaways of the list.

There will be more rounds but the special rule applies to all giveaways linked in the thread, you can't enter in one of the giveaways of the first round and later enter again.

You will not know what giveaways will be created and how long this event will last. You can try to guess, though. I don't want set my Steam inventory privacy to private, but you can't be sure all the giveaways will be from the Steam store, or if I buy the game after the giveaway has been closed, or if the giveaway is always from me, or so...

You will have to pick your giveaway wisely, considering what you can win and how many chances you have to win.

This special rule was approved by Support. If you ignore the rule and enter multiple giveaways and win one, I'll request a new winner.

All rounds will start, indicatively, Friday, and end Monday, 19:00 CEST (17:00 GMT, it's the time when the Steam store front page gets updated with the new deals). They can be private giveaways or puzzle giveaways (not hard puzzles, presumably).

Everyone is welcome to enter my giveaways, just make sure you follow the rules.

--- Round 1 (10 April - 14 April) --

Total participants: 760 (69 invalid)
Total entries: 923 instead of 760 (163 invalid)

They are all quality games. That is critically acclaimed games or games I enjoyed. And I'm going on with this.


--- Round 2 (18 April - 21 April) --

Total participants: 1021 (102 invalid), 305 (round 2 only, 37 invalid)
Total entries: 1214 (193 invalid)

More good games here. Sorry, I was forced not to use direct links, due to an unwanted number of invalid entries. I feel like I forgot something but let's start...


--- Round 3 (25 April - 28 April) --

Total participants: 1117 (106 invalid)
Total entries: 1316 (199 invalid)

They are hungry and want to eat you. Do you hear them coming? You should, they are not sweet-smelling. I don't know how can they always attack by surprise so easily in the movies and so...

I hope you aren't disappointed for the number of giveaways, there is no fixed number for that.

This looks like a fun idea, thank you for giving away all these games! Looks like you will be keeping the support people busy with rerolls for some time as well... :)

It's discouraging to see how many people enter giveaways without reading a single word you've written. :(

I'm not really worried about them. The number of valid entries is very close to what you can see. In a giveaway with 33 entries, for example, your win chance is actually something close to 3%. The total number of who break the rules is very low (5%-7%) compared to the total number of participants.

You do not need any special knowledge of TF2.

So basically we can enter only one of all GA that are posted here and will be posted in future ?

In that case I'll wait for the next round :)

I know Brutal Legend never got a lot of love, but I really enjoyed it. Its a heavy metal dork fantasy come true.

Not everyone like the setting or the kind of fighitng of this game, I think. Anyway, it seems to me Brutal Legend is generally very appreciated.

I end up loving everything Tim Schafer has touched. I didn't realize it until years later, when I went back and looked at the things he's worked on, and they're some of my favorite games.

QA1 has only the 57% of solvers, that is really really unexpected.

I think the issue with QA1 and Q1 is that people don't understand what they're supposed to be answering/identifying, myself included. I've made it past QA1, but I'm thoroughly confused on why its the same video for QA1 and Q1, but the solutions are clearly different.

Put yourself in my shoes: a video as question and an answer to write, it should be something that once it's conceived makes you to think it's clearly recognizable ideally by everyone as a possible answer (in the case of QA1+Q1 the subject is well known). As solver, you have to understand what may be simply background noise and what may be meaningful to solve the problem.

My problem with the puzzles most people create is that I'm overthinking it. Someone will show a picture of a painting and I'll think "Kandinsky" while the answer will be "yellow".

Impossible, I knew that chour can sometimes even find the right answers of a quiz without reading the questions.

Of course, perception is more than something of just subjective, it's never exactly the same. Despite this, when you send a message you can get a reliable idea of what first impressions you give to the recipient. If I post an image like this, I'm sure everyone will look at the center of the table and notice 2-3 things in that zone, probably the same things noticed by me. Q1 is based on this.
