Has the giveaway count increased? The last time this happened there was a huge flood of PA3 giveaways.

Because everything is a poker or extra odds giveaway. When people who don't contribute run out of points, they do a bunch of refill giveaways to drum up interest again. Same thing that happened a few months ago, before they made the horrible, horrible mistake of reducing the refills to five minutes, entries to 100, and points to 2500.

The refill system sucks, I really don't like it. Poker is pretty bad too. I hope the site dies and that people using it go here or to gameminer instead lol

GameMiner? I've never heard of that site before. Does anyone here use it and is it good? Just curious.

I use it. The website is okay, but getting points takes a while unless you contribute to it :P

Yeah, our copycat sites are mostly pretty bad. The ways they try to 'improve on' our system are usually awful and are frequently pretty blatant cash-grabs. They also often have poorly-enforced rules and altogether lack some rules which are important for maintaining a good community, but which tend to reduce things like overall giveaway volume, and they short-sightedly look the other way on those things because they prioritize the money ahead of trying to have a decent community. And really, most people using their sites who aren't also using ours are probably either permanently suspended here or can't register because they don't meet the minimum value threshold. As a result of all this, their communities tend to be rather less than amazing.

With these refills I got a lot of poits :D, the problem is I enter only for game I will play, so don't spending them at once, because there is too much indie crap.

Because there's a lot of poker giveaways, and points generate up to 20k now.

Why bother with refills? Just make one poker GA and earn over a million points... (it can even be bundle desura game)
