SG_UGD is a different kind of giveaway group. The idea of this group is giving away games at unlucky chance. It's a lot of fun, and gets real (well somewhat) intense when the rolling begins!

(If you happen to get be lucky, you might go months without needing to create a giveaway.)


How it works:

  • Looking for 75 members, so currently recruiting 10 people.

  • (Example of how it works.) Every 2 weeks I will use a random word/name picker generator and 25 out of 75 people will be picked. (1/3 of the group is how many people will be picked. With 66 people it'd be 22 people picked, not 25. Etc.)

  • I will stream/make a video when doing the roll session.

  • The 25 people picked will have to make a giveaway.

  • No games on the bundle list nor DLC can be used as your primary giveaway, but if you want to do it as a secondary/bonus giveaway that is fine. They just can't be your primary giveaway. (I may make exceptions for very popular/very wanted DLC. If someone wanted to do a DLC, I'd want them to tell me first.) (ALSO 30%[23 people] of the group need to NOT own the game. 30% of the group doesn't need to enter it, they just need to not own it.)

  • There is no mark for entering/winning a giveaway, so you can go crazy and enter them all!(Just make sure you want it. ;p)

  • The 25 people picked for the session will be safe for the next roll session meaning they will not be able to picked again for the next session. This is done so they won't have to make a giveaway every 2 weeks if they are unlucky(So basically if they are unlucky it will be once a month.)

  • The giveaway must be made sometime in those 2 weeks before the next roll. (To be more specific, must be made within the first week, and last a week long.)

~If you aren't picked during the roll of the dice, you CAN still make giveaways for the group if you want to(Which will just be a bonus/random giveaway.), HOWEVER making a giveaway doesn't make you safe for the next roll.

Requirements to join: (Meaning for a chance to enter this does, it does not mean you will auto enter the group.)

  • Need at least 100$ minimum of value for gifted games.
  • A good entry to comment ratio is a plus.
  • Being an active chatter for the steam chat is also a plus.
  • Don't be super cheap. (I'm not expecting nor asking for TRIPLE A 60$ games[though feel free to make those if you want. ;p lol], but I'd rather you not being doing the minimum of paying 1$ for a game to give away. I'm not gonna post a minimum value, but just don't be super cheap please. <3 )
  • Comment on ALL giveaways you join.(Give them your thanks, and say how sorry you are that they were picked that session. ;p Etc.)(This is mandatory. You get 3 warnings if you forget to comment on a giveaway, the 4th time will result in a kick.)[There will be resets so people with 3 warnings go to 0 but it will only happen once every few months.)
  • You must make a giveaway within the first 2 days of being in the group. I don't like having this requirement and never had it before. But we have had some members leech and leave when it there turn to give. To make this fair when you join, you will be put on the safe list for that roll(After making your giveaway). So you will not be picked on this Sunday's roll.
    I may make some exceptions if you don't meet the comment ratio or whatever, so feel free to comment.(Don't bother posting if you've never given away anything and have like 4 comments)

Here is the group page.

Roll 44 will be on November 23rd, 9pm UTC(2pm PST). (It's always every other Sunday.)

If you have any questions about the group feel free to ask, just post it here. :3

Welcome giveaway later.

Recruiting ending Saturday night 11/22/14

Intriguing, even though I still don't know how to pick a game with 30% member not owning, I'm interested in joining

There are special websites (all listed on group page) that check any game you choose. So you want to make ga for game X, go to website, check it, you see number of users that have it and don't have it, if more than 30% don't have it you create GA, if less you look for other game.

If a person is lucky, then they don't need to make a giveaway.

It's been awhile since we've had any super lucky people, but at one point I had some members that went like 4 months without needing to make any.

my record was 9 rolls without being picked, so it's 2.25 months without need to create GA. But there were more extreme cases - afair Sleepy went for 1X rolls without being picked xD
