Can I put a private giveaway on my blog, and then link my blog here? I wouldn't require anyone to do anything other than go to the blog to enter. No personal info, no liking on facebook, nothing like that at all. Of course, sharing it would be appreciated, but I'd never require it. I would just make a blog post with the url to the private giveaway.

It's probably okay, though you can just give the link to the giveaway on this site.... guess the real question I need to ask is "Why only on your blog?"

Probably in the hope of some people taking a liking to it as they pass by :)

I wouldn't consider it wrong, don't think the rules go against it (much) either (in this particular case).

Right exactly. Most people will probably just click blog link, click giveaway link, and be done. Which I'm ok with. But maybe a few people as a way of saying thanks for the giveaway, might click the like button and share my blog on facebook. I plan on doing the giveaway for the game either way.

So it's kinda like a mix. Well that isn't too bad I guess.

Just do what ND1Razor does, and you should be fine.

Sounds like spam/advertising to me.

That is fine. People link to their youtube/blogs/groups/streams all the time. Go ahead.

from the FAQ:
"If you would like to include some self-promotion in the chat or forum, please run it by a mod first."

But how do I do that besides posting in the forum and hoping one sees it?

with a support ticket, or contact TheJadeFalcon directly in steam, he loves that (of course... don't do that, the last thing)
no, really, make a support asking for it.
