I have my birthday on 28th of June. So sharing something with you guys to celebrate it.
I was hoping for a bit bigger celebration than this, to mark my B'Day and 1st CakeDay which happens to be exactly 1 month later on 28th July (I guess there will be next celebration on CakeDay too.. yaaaaayyyyy). I was planning to run month long GAs starting from 28th June and ended on 28th July. But due to latest change in Steam's gifting policies, my plan failed.
I can't hold gifts in my inventory to give out later. And another thing I don't know if the winner can accept the gift from me or not. Steam hasn't properly defined which region my country falls under so I can't directly choose the region restrictions for each GA.
Lets hope this small celebration doesn't become a pain-in-the-ass.

So there are two categories of GA, including 5 games in total. Each game has level 2+ restriction sorry for others can't make everyone happy it was the minimum I could do. Three GA are invite only and 2 are whitelist only.

I will temporarily add members to whitelist. For this I borrowed the concept of LastM's recent threads but with a bit more strict rules. Comment in this thread with your playtime and achievement stats using kelnage's Do You Even Play, Bro? Script. The rules are following

  • For 5-10 wins, have >25% achievment more than 40%.
  • For 11-30 wins have >25% achievment more than 30%.
  • For 31-100 wins have >25% achievment more than 25%
  • For 101 and plus wins have >25% achievment more than 20%
    I know it might be harsh, because achievment are not everything, but this is the most effective matrix for checking if the winner plays the game or not. And If you do not meet this criteria, GA are not that awesome. They are from 2008 and 2009 Left 4 Dead series.

Here are the clicky things.

Game Type Restriction GA Link
Portal Invite only Level: 2+ Enter
Clockwork Invite only Level: 2+ Enter
The Vanishing of Ethan Carter - Collector's Edition Upgrade Invite only Level: 2+ Enter
Left 4 Dead Whitelist Level: 2+ ; WL Enter
Left 4 Dead 2 Whitelist Level: 2+; WL Enter

And before entering in any GA, I am not sure the winner can accept the gift or not so you have to agree on the following clause:
If the winner is not able to accept the gift you agree on allowing the GA creator to re-roll you or delete this GA

And finally some questions I want to make a PayPal account, so I can buy from humblebundles or bundlestars but it requires a bank account. I have heard about Payoneer which offers a debit mastercard which I can link to Paypal and use it. i have tried to order it, but still haven't received it till now while they say it has already been shipped.
I am looking for an alternative methods for transactions mainly for game purchases. I have tried tremorgames but it is useless to be because I can't earn enough coins to purchase games. The task to earn points/coin are limited and almost nonexistent because of my country.
Few days ago I tried pointprizes but I am skeptical about that site.

Happy upcoming birthday!

I just use Paypal so I'm not really able to help with alternative payment methods.

Its actually now. 30 minutes past.
I also want to create PayPal because its more versatile but the thing is my country doesn't allow international transactions unless its a business entity. So I can't link my cards to PayPal. That is the reason why I ordered Payoneer car. But it failed me.

I have almost 3% of games with 25%, while 54% with more than 1 xD
I'm not that good with achievments as long as they aren't given for a playthrough but for some special attempts =p

I know what you mean, but don't you think most games give you almost 50-60% achievement just for playing the main story line only, without even playing the side quests.
I would have added you if you had 15-20%. Sorry.

Ah, just sharing my experience with achievements, some of my wins require me to finish the game (Divine Slice of Life) to get any or to exceed my physical abilities (Devil Daggers) =d
I will try though, just for a challenge xD

I know, that's why I said most. Don't worry for next month's GA, I think you'll be ready. As I am planning to decrease the numbers.

Before I had a paypal account, I used Amazon pay (works with some debit cards) but that changed so much ...
I think only Humble Bundle (only the bundles) and Amazon itself are left with this payment method.

I guess so, I saw it while I tried to checkout with Humble Bundle.
Amazon pay can be a good alternative too, you can almost buy Giftcards for other stores.

Get a Neteller debit Mastercard if you can / is convenient for you. Look it up, they give you the option to get a Virtual card so you don't need a card shipped to your home

Happy birthday and thanks for the GAs! It's a nice WL idea. Not there yet, but I'm working on it.

Can't really help with that payment method issue, since I can easily choose between them. But I'm now curious where you're from. I've checked your profile and found a possible hint, but can't imagine that these restrictions are a thing in Central Europe (if you don't want to state it, just ignore it).

Thanks.
Nah, not from Europe actually, I guess you thought of Poland, isn't it? :P
I am from Nepal, not much of online scenario so I guess that is the reason why there are no international payment portals and a bit restrictive Central Bank policy.
15.5% is not bad though. Keep it up. :)

Not Poland, but the Netherlands, since you're in a group. Nepal, wow!
