As the title says, I've completed my fresher year in Steamgifts. I found this site while searching for a free games that I could enjoy in one of reddit thread. At that time I had only few games so I couldn't register to Steamgifts. I had to wait for almost 6-7 months to finally pass the $100 CV restriction.
I never would have known about Steam at all if it wasn't for my friend who played Dota. Prior to this all I did was torrent games from skidrowreloaded and piratebay. I joined Steam on Feb 14, 2015 guess I needed something to divert my mind from the fact that I didn't have a GF XD
Later being involved in the IT sector I kinda developed a thing for at least supporting the developers when ever you can. My first purchase for games were done during the Steam summer sales of 2016, for games that I had already played earlier by downloading pirated copies. The Talos Principle, Ori and the Blind Forest, Tomb Raider and GTA:San Andreas. Since then I haven't downloaded/played pirated copies of games.
At first I used to enter for all of my games from my wishlist on SG. Now I am choosy about it too. I mostly visit the wishlist section of GA on SG and rarely the recommended section for a game that I might like.

I like to share my stats on my first year on SG.

  • I now have 69 games in my steam library which includes 20 games that I won on SG, thanks to this community and members for gifting me game that I wanted to play or giving me a chance to win a game.
  • I have given out 56 games till now.
  • I have entered for 4,885 GAs till now.
  • I have commented 931 times, not much of a talker really.
  • I have 99 people on my blacklist 96 are for rulebreakers 1 is personal and 2 are BL return. Among 96 BL almost 60-70% are those who Re-gifted or tried to regift after winning games here on SG. If you are on my BL but haven't broken any rule ask me, I'll un-blacklist you if it has been mistake from my side, but if you did break the rule which I usually add in tags and user note, I won't reply your comment. If still not satisfied add me on steam, we can talk about it.
  • I have created 5 discussion threads. 1 for Bugs and suggestion, 1 for Sci-fi movie recommendation, 1 for advice regarding my career, 1 BDay Thread and 1 CakeDay thread this one.
  • I haven't created any train or used SGtools to protect the train till now, I guess this is a chance for me to try new things.
    That sums up my activities in SG of the 1st year.

So now to GAs.

SGTools protected Train : Basic SG Rules and Level 2+

Whitelist/Group

I will temporarily add members to my white-list by looking at their stats on Do You Even Play, Bro? Script. Leave me a comment with your stat if you want to enter the whitelist GA. So rules are following:

  • For 5-10 wins, have >25% achievment more than 35%.
  • For 11-30 wins have >25% achievment more than 25%.
  • For 31-100 wins have >25% achievment more than 20%
  • For 101 and plus wins have >25% achievment more than 18%

This is my first time creating a SGTools protected train. I've tried to consider multiple wins that were before 2016/01/01 and allow it. Tell me if something goes wrong.

Games are as following:

By re-gifting are you referring to people that win a game and like it so much they decide to buy another copy to let others win? If so, I don't see the problem with that.

Anyhow, happy cake day, and thanks for the gibs!

No, by ReGifting I mean people winning game from mass giveaways here in SG (those with 500+ copies), and rather than activating game for themselves they decide to create a new GA on SG.

Doesn't have to be from a mass giveaway, but yeah. :)

I meant in my cases. Most of BL are from mass GAs like that example.

regifting = you win a game but instead of activating it on your account you create a giveaway for this game.

2 are BL return

Two-way blacklist. You dont need to blacklist them in return. Thats a waste of space.

Well they still can temporarily remove BL, wait some time, enter GA and re-blacklist.
Saving both of us time :P
