I'd be interested. Always have a few bundle goodies left over and also geting to the point now where I am starting to miss some bundles as I only need 1 item from them.

I checked back to see if you responded, but so far not. :)
I have some questions:
1, The group is currently empty, you're the only member. In this way the 1-game-per-week-for-4-weeks system is LOOKING sharky, because it would take a week to eligible to enter a giveaway, and as only members could enter giveaways currently you're the only one eligible for it. Try to think it again, but after 1-2 dozens of members it's perfectly viable.
2, "A ratio below 0.3 is an immediate kick from the group." - sorry, but this is also not a good idea. You can win multiple giveaways on the same day, so you could get kicked without even having time to react and raising the ratio.
What about refining it to "If you are below 0.7 ratio, you have to revoke all your group giveaway entries. If you'd win a giveaway while your ratio is below 0.7, the maker of the giveaway must reroll." But.. some fine-tuning needed, as for example if I'd won a game I reeeally want with ratio of 0.6, I'd happily make two giveaway to fix my ratio. So the real question is if you can enter giveaway when under 0.7, and when can you raise your ratio.

Well for your last question you would need to win more than 3 games per 1 of your giveaways to get below 0,3 ratio.
You probably will not get below, unless you deliberately keep joining for personal gain.
But I must agree that rules should be changed for the start of group and after it starts working keep up those stated.

Absolutely agree with your points about honest people won't get under 0.3. But also, strange things can happen when luck is involved: for example what to do on steamgifts, when you win two similar games on the same day (happened with some folks)- of course keep the first, ask for reroll on a 2nd, but it's still a unique and funny thing if you think about it. :)
And as you can enter giveaways after your first giveaway, it could happen that you enter a few, go camping (or stuff) and win 2-3 while you only gave away one.
But,as you said, after the 4 week's 4 gifts it would be indeed like impossible to go below 0.3, winning 12 games just like that :)

Thank you for your interest.
1) This is a new group that will start in a few days. So right now there are no members invited yet.
I'm still trying to get some coding finished so that the ratio system is in place.
The ratio system will apply to myself as well. I will apply the same rules to myself as the rest of the group.
2) I see your point of how the ratio system might be somewhat strict at first when everyone is new. Actually I've given this some thought last night and came up with several solutions if it might be too strict. Like giving everyone a headstart on their ratio. I came to the conclusion that for now it's best to see how it goes when we start. I will be very lenient at first and won't kick people who obviously didn't intend to do anything wrong. I will probably expect some finetuning needed and welcome any feedback on the system.
Once the group is rolling, I expect this won't be that big of a problem any more.

Thank you all for your interest. Every application will be looked at and given the attention it deserves.
I will probably start with the invites in a few days, so don't expect them this weekend yet.
For now I'm working very hard on getting the last things ready for the start of the group.
See you soon.

Bundle Quest is recruiting and looking for new members who love bundle games.
The idea of this group is to make it a great place to share the spare bundle keys you still have laying around with a nice group of friends. And to make sure that sharing is actually fun, it will be done on a ratio system. That means that for every game you share, you are guaranteed a game back. Now that is a great way to build your game collection!
We are a new group that is just starting, so this is your chance to be part of this group from the very beginning.
How will this group work?
All giveaways will be handled by Steam Gifts. We make group only giveaways that the members of Bundle Quest can enter. We count the number of games you have given away in the group and the number of games you won, which determines your ratio. Just keep your ratio above 0.7. It’s that simple.
The main thing that matters is your ratio. Once you are a full member we don’t require you to make a giveaway every week to remain in in the group. This group is about fun and being a relaxed group of friends.
For new members however we ask that you proof that you want to be a part of the group, by making 1 giveaway each week, for the first four weeks. This way we ensure we only let active members be part of the group.
But that’s not all. I have some nice ideas to add some bonuses and rewards for the best members of the group. More about that later.
Once the group is off to a good start we will also have gaming events, where we pick a game to play together. That way we get to know each other and it’s more fun to play with people you know.
So this group is for sharing and playing together.
We require you to always follow the group rules.
For more information check the group page here: Bundle Quest
Who are we looking for?
If you are interested in joining this group, please apply by posting in this thread.
Note: Please do not send me a friend invite and ask for an invite.
