By my count, I have entered 313 of the train giveaways. I've been very picky about what to enter, I've gone back several times to exit a giveaway because I didn't think the odds were worth the prize - for instance, a 6p game that looks kinda fun but is not super important to me has over 300 entries. I've still been at zero points most of the last 10 days. I believe I've entered every game I want to be in for.
I often ask myself, "Would I be disappointed if I won this game?" if the answer is yes, I exit the giveaway.
My percentage chance to win something tomorrow now stands at 98%. I will only be disappointed I think if I win nothing.

checked up to 3700, how the hell do you even cope with checking the train?

no bad feelings, but your ga's are for me among the slowest to ride through, because of how you format the navigation links, compared to ppl that use extra big fonts and spacing, take in account I'm in the go with my handy, my thumb and... multitasking ;p
(thanks for them ofc:)

but they are most fun to make for me xD
Also may I suggest trying out ESGST? Among many functionalities it has keyboard shortcuts for train navigation - so you can navigate trains with one click of a keyboard without having to 'navigate where the next button is' ;p

maybe it was not clear, but I'm using a mobile phone with the android app, which is great in normal situations but it less than ideal for a thousand cars train. click wise (difficulty to click quickly) and memory wise (the app consumes a lot of memory when you run through hundreds of ga's and performance is slower).
these days I don't use sg on computer any more, they even made keys redeemable by browser ;p

Thank you all for your contributions, I am curious what this will influx of invite-only giveaways will look like in the Steamgifts statistics.

IMPORTANT EDIT!
I would like to give a special thanks to both Canis and icaio for not only their HUGE contribution , but for also pretty much helping me organize this event. this train would be no where near where it is right now if not for both of them. we are now THE LONGEST TRAIN ON THIS SITE! and i couldn't ... we couldn't have done this without them. so , form the bottom of my heart. thank you. i never thought we would end up here , but here we are. I am honestly overwhelmed by how big this has gotten. when i first made this event , i never thought we would break the 400 mark. but many contributions later we are almost at 1300. AND WE STILL HAVE 11 DAYS LEFT!
i will make a complete list of people that have contributed in the train later on with links to their profile by the time we are done with a special thanks. there are way too many to list now.
so i just noticed that not only have we had a lack of events going on in the forum , but that this month had the worst number of GAs made since April 2015.
so instead of bitching about how dead this site is like a number of people do , i decided to actually try to help fix it (Crazy right? actually doing something instead of complaining?) so here is a community Train
RULES ARE RULES! : EDITED ONE MORE RULE IN ABOUT 0P GAMES
Must end September 28
No region restrictions
Set to "Invite Only"
Game value 5P or more
No DLCs
Set Contributor Level no higher than 3
Post URL in the comments of the last cart in the train.
If there is already a link for another cart in the comments of the last cart, wait until a new cart is added.
Number your cart in the description.
In case of games that haven't been released yet and games that were just added to the SteamGifts database. they will have a 0P cost until release or the Database catches up. so the rule for those is that as long as their cost wont be 5P once that happens , then the game is good. it is easy to figure out what the price range is going to be by simply look at the store page. had to add this rule mid event cause there was nothing about stuff like this and i honestly didn't think about it.
Check your GA comments regularly until you get a link for the next cart. You are responsible for adding the NEXT link in your GA description to keep the train
growing.
Punch your tickets HERE
Will add more stations as we get further in.
WE JUST BEAT COMMUNITY TRAIN 2.0 IN THE NUMBER OF CARTS!
578 CARTS REACHED , WE ARE OFFICIALLY THE LONGEST COMMUNITY TRAIN YET!
Sorry it took so long to add this in , but i actually forgot to do this even though i should have.
while i did say this was the 3.0 event , i forgot to explain or even mention the origin and the real person behind this idea.
The OG behind this event is Xarlor who came up with the first community train about 10 months ago.
it was done again by UserCar007 about 8 months ago with some changes that i have decided to keep. which were disallowing DLCs and adding a game value requirement .
I am simply adding into this event by restarting it for the third time , and i should have done this sooner but i really would like to thank both of Xarlor and UserCar007.
EDIT 2:
So someone asked what songs are in the poll.
so i decided to share them with you all. they are all from my favorite Broadway Musical / movie. Fiddler On The Roof. its kind of weird to be honest. being a Middle Eastern Ex-Muslim whose favorite movie is Fiddler on The Roof. anyway . here are the songs.
If i Were A Rich Man
Far From The Home I Love
L'chaim (To Life)
MatchMaker
SunRise , SunSet
its kind of hard to get a good and clean version of L'chaim since its set in a Bar where they are all partying and having a good time. so that one will do.
EDIT 3:
Thank you EmotionEngine for making a spread sheet with EXTREMELY detailed information about the train. i was struggeling with merely writing names down. i honestly cant imagine going through the train and writing down all the data and information you have noted in this thing.
THE AWESOME SPREADSHEET
