Well, we've had a lot of fun with some interesting giveaways for the group. However, after getting extremely small numbers of entries like 4 for Saints Row 3, I believe it is time to open the group up for a little more competition. We're going to close it at 100 and next openings will probably be fewer and longer between.

I'm sure some people have been able to experience these 0-entry giveaways, but in a nutshell:
-We create a 1hour giveaway (low value)
-As long as there are 0 entries, bigger and better 1 hour giveaways are created
-As soon as a giveaway ends with entries, the particular round of giveaways are over, and anyone entered at the end will be removed from the group (and don't bother trying to rejoin when we make the group public, I guess steam won't allow that)

We've been brainstorming about readmittance, and we've some up with a solution for the time being. Anyone that is kicked will have a one month probationary period.

If you entered and did not win, simply wait out the month and then message one of the admins (preferably me) asking to be invited and PLEASE PROVIDE THE GIVEAWAY LINK WHERE YOU WERE KICKED. I would appreciate it if you don't make us do all of the legwork/logistics.
If you entered and did win, the above conditions also apply to you. However, you must also provide evidence that you actually played whatever you won. Either adequate playtime for whatever game/DLC you had won and/or achievements.

Group Link

Again putting out the call to anyone who may want to participate with us in making these giveaways. Usually they end up in hands of people that actually want them. Please contact one of the admins so we can maybe set you up with admin as well. Unfortunately the 3 people doing giveaways are all around the same time zone and it would be great for this group to be more active (especially midweek while I'm working).

I'm curious what we would get for not entering giveaways.

We create another giveaway with a higher value if there are no entries. If you simply don't enter anything, you honestly get nothing. No risk, no reward.

But what's the risk of entering? I'm confused. XD

If you enter, you might win a game but you get kicked out afterwards.

If you don't enter, you get to stay in the group and possibly win a better game later on.

I think you get kicked after the giveaway you entered ends.

I believe your reward is to retain your status as a member if you don't enter.

Oh, so it's a question of only being about to enter one giveaway per month or what?

Yes, but take it with a grain of salt.
You have to reapply at the end of the month if you entered any of the giveaways offered at all.

I didn't expect it to fill that quickly. Wormy was spamming me to close the group when I was still editing the group description. I can't think of any other way to do this that would be fair, so my apologies.

That's okay, I was joking. But it got filled in no time, it wasn't even a minute after you opened the thread, I read the text and clicked and it was closed.

Well, I noticed the thread five minutes after creation which was already too late but I have a question. I was kicked one week ago at day #0 in that Torchlight 2 giveaway, is the rule about one month including giveaways before this rule was created or not, aplying only to those who are right now in the group?

Applies to everyone. The only person that has been reinvited was Jeyko and it was only because I had threatened the group with it for not entering giveaways they had wanted.
