Edit:
Well, this was underwhelming, to say the least. Top 20 spot on the wishlist of the entire community and barely a few hundred votes gave a fuck.
At any rate, as I promised, here is the link to the giveaway. The undisclosed/secret SGTools-protected choice won, so, here it is:

http://www.sgtools.info/giveaways/b7604ad0-d50c-11e8-a57a-fa163ee2f826


Let's play a little community game, shall we? You may call it Greed-o-Meter, if you wish. Or, if you are the rarer kind of SteamGifts user, call it Altruism 'R' Us.

It is a simple game.
I have one key (supposedly worldwide) for the recently released ReCore PC port. It is currently sitting on the prestigious 16th spot of the SteamGifts community wishlist, and had only two giveaways created for it (one pritave, one groups-only).

Normally, I would post the key in the form of a 4-week-long fully public L0 giveaway with some snarky comments about the user base around here.
Now, however, I am letting the community decide its fate in the form of a little poll. A poll combined with a reading comprehension exercise, meaning, the actual winner will be the one that had the second highest number of votes. (This setup should be familiar for Americans. :3)

The choices are the only ones posted in the poll. No other possibilities exist in this little game, no matter how much you want to voice your dissatisfaction. If you don't like the choices, you are free to spend the 17 bucks on a key you give away the way you choose to.

The rules for the disclosed SGT choice are as follows:
You have at least one multiple win infraction (you fail the "no multiple wins" rule) and one of these: community ban, VAC ban, or unactivated wins.
OR
Your number of won games to number of sent games ratio is over 500 (and not the other way around).
OR
You have fewer than 100 games on your Steam account, and none of them can be a game published or developed by Valve, nor a game in the battle royale genre.
OR
You have more than 10000 wishlisted items on Steam, including ReCore, which also has to be wishlisted before 2018-09-21.
OR
Your level is in the 6.65–6.67 range
OR
You own every single game published on Steam by Microsoft Studios but this one (24 in total).

As for the unsisclosed one, if it wins, it will remain hidden. There is an equal chance for it to be a lot harsher than the listed ruleset or have no restrictions at all beyond being an SGTools link. Its ambiguity is mandatory.

The poll runs until this Sunday (2018-10-21), the day I will create the decided giveaway.

So true. Thanks!
Honestly, I wasn't really aware there were MSS games other than Age of Empires of Steam. I know they certainly don't have my favorite vintage game by them, aka Combat Flight Simulator 2 (or any other CFS game) :(

undisclosed rules - Nope. It will be decided on the very spot, totally on my whim.>

Thats what I voted for. Because why not. 🤞

But I like the idea of making those who want to enter to add a bunch of wishlist items. Is there a way to create a rule so that they have to have added 100 games to the total over the last day? I could just set a number but making everyone add a few would be more fun.

No. You can make a rule that they had to add 100 specific items to the wishlist since a certain date, but not what you said.

Super sophisticated and elaborate self-bump, because that number of votes on a game from the top 20 spots of the community wishlist is just sad.

Here is the winning choice. Granted, I would have assumed a little higher numbers.

I will not self-bump any more, if you guys are this disinterested, then I see little point trying to keep the thread alive.

The rules are completely different. They are rather lax, honestly, on mid-to-high levels it just shuts out those with massive libraries.

since so low no. of votes, my preffered option came third (for undisclosed reasons). Did not pass current rule, will it be public after finishing? :P

No, it will remain secret. This is the consequence of the final outcome in the voting.

My vote got 3rd place, too bad. Though depending on the secret rules, there's a chance this would give better odds.
