hello everyone,

Today I'm launching this group. You've asked me for something like this on several occasions. It was created with the intention of creating a strong community of SG users.
Are you tired of running giveaways and not getting any thanks if they win?
Would you like to be sure that the people who are going to win are people who are going to play or really want it?
Are you tired of seeing the same giveaways over and over again?
Do you want to have more chances to win by participating against fewer users?
If you have one or more yeses to these questions, this is the group for you.

To enter, you must be level +3 and have a ratio, that is, real CV divided by real RV, greater than 0.35. (Periodic checks will be carried out so that we are all within that minimum ratio.). Due to the large number of requests, I will personally evaluate each case, and be more receptive to people who play their wins, who do full-value GA, and who have good manners when winning.

It is very important to read the group rules and you can read them here

The group is performing spectacularly, and I'll be opening up spaces until we reach 150 members. That will be the final number for now, and no more applications will be accepted until there are no more members or a vote is taken to open the group to more people.

Your current ratio is 0,07.
I invite you to improve it to the minimum we ask and try again.

I'm going to pass and I won't be taking part in this group
I agree with the idea of being respectful and saying thank you when you win, I do it all the time. I also play the games I've won, with more or less delay but I play them.
Even though I respect what you're trying to do, I refuse to be forced to give, it should remain a pleasure and there are times when I give and others when I simply can't for lots of different reasons.
Plus, I'm not sure that creating closed groups will help steamgift's future. I may be wrong, but personally every private group I see being created makes me think that steamgift will have fewer and fewer participants (even if it's just an impression, because I don't see the activity of such groups, like a newcomer wouldn't see it)
It's the first time I've said this I think, it's nothing against you gus and it's in no way a reproach, in just one year you've become a pillar of the site and you're clearly one of those who keep steamgift going. Thank you for that.

Understandable, Gus might respond later to this.

No problem. You know I'm a staunch defender of public events, but I can't go around blacklisting 10 or 15 people for every event I do. In the group, there's no obligation, except if you're very lucky, which should be more routine than an obligation. I hope you reconsider. You know I really appreciate you. I love your regular threads, and I'm sure you'd have a great time here. Ultimately, it's just an extension of what I've been doing publicly.

I know that, and it's also out of respect for you that I wanted to give you my thoughts.
One of the rules stipulates a giveaway after 3 wins, which can happen quite quickly in a small group I think. As far as I'm concerned, even if it's pretty light (no price restrictions or metacritic) it's an obligation and not just a routine.
Anyway, I sincerely hope you find what you're looking for in this group. <3

You know the doors are open if you change your mind. If the group doesn't work out the way I have in mind, I'll be the first to close it, but I have faith in it.

in the 3rd rule i understand that for every 3 full cv games you win you have to give 1 full cv game back. i dont understand after the "although" what exactly do you mean, if it is exclusive but bundled(not full cv) still counts as a win?
also no in group value difference of any kind?

That part confused me as well. I think he means that if you've already done full value exclusive GAs when you were not obligated to, you get credit for them and won't have to make a new exclusive GA if you win 3 games. Probably can be phrased more clearly.

Yes, that's exactly what I wanted to explain, sorry for my English, as always.

I'm happy with my current group setup and not too eager to win more games, but how can I say no to a new project by gus?! Request sent!

Shame that I can't focus on SG too much right now (RL distractions) or I would've volunteered to help out with some of the mod tasks. Maybe down the line if you still need help.

I reread the rules several times, but still couldn't figure out one point. Does the mandatory full CV giveaway need to be created for every 3 full CV wins, or just for every 3 total wins?

1 week ago

Comment has been collapsed.

I've tried to clarify, the 1-3 ratio is only for full value, if you create a full value giveaway today, it counts when you win 3, that's what I mean.

I think the question is still open as to how it works with shared GAs that don't need a full CV.

1 week ago
Permalink

Comment has been collapsed.

Shared wins do not count as mandatory wins or as a mandatory giveaway when you get 3 wins in exclusive giveaways.I don't know if my English makes it understandable, I hope the idea is conveyed, if you have better words to describe it I would love to have them to change the thread header.

i think you mean "if you win 3 full CV exclusive giveaways in the group, that you need to make 1 full CV giveaway for the group as well." The ratio is 1 full CV giveaway for every 3 full CV giveaway won

Although your ratio is 0.37, I don't have good references for you, as you were expelled from another group. I'm sorry, but I think a good environment is essential for me.

I'll talk to the administrator of that group to find out what happened. The absence of conflict is important to me; it makes everything easier and more fun for everyone.

accepted, but You must be careful with your ratio, if you win any Full Value game, it will sink and you will not be able to continue.

By the way, I think it's important to clarify what is meant by a full-CV game in the rules. From what I understand, it's a noticeable high-quality game, right? Or does this rule apply to any full-CV non-shovelware game? I think the first option makes more sense.

They are the ones that do not have asterisks and have enough positive reviews

1 week ago

Comment has been collapsed.

I know about asterisks, but it seems like this could be heavily abused with cheap games from keyshops, i.e., participant X won 3 quality full-cv games worth $30, but created 1 full-cv game with a real price of $1.

I've already taken that into account, and it's in the rules. They must have reviews, but you can't force them all to be 50 euros; everyone has their own budget.
