72 valid nominations till now, check here to see who (disclaimer; clean sheet check at start of trains)

Click here to see who already made 1 or 2 nominations...

From time to time there's a big clickbait announcement of great games given away by someone and you enter the thread in anticipation ….

... to find out it's another nomination thread ...

In those threads you see the same names getting nominated time and again and not without reason: they are the ones making all those events, creating the puzzles we have fun with, commenting on anything&everything and giving away ludicrous amounts of games. They are the backbone of our community and they deserve some recognition.

But recently a few far too many!!! of those 'community leaders' have announced they'll be leaving SteamGifts temporarily?!. And that made me and Fruitbean wonder who will be the community leaders of tomorow...

So we thought of this event which is meant to be a nice way to shine a little light on the lesser known heroes of SteamGifts. The people who are kinda new and trying to find out what this community is all about... The people who aren't yet invited to all the cool inner circle groups that are around but will be after this!... The people who are not addicted yet... but have every sign they will be very soon

So please nominate 1 or 2 lesser known heroes who you think will be the community leaders of tomorrow and explain in a few words why (no explanation = no nomination). First come, first serve. So pick your favourites quickly! I wonder how many people find this sneaky link

Rules on nominees:

• level 2 to 5
• more than 50 % public giveaways (and/or private forum giveaways open to the community)
• clean sheet: no non activated games, no multiple wins, no vac bans

Rules on nominators:

• clean sheet: no non activated games, no multiple wins, no vac bans
• don’t nominate anyone who nominated you

All valid nominees will be invited to a group and get access to a train with Tomb Raider: Anniversary, Tomb Raider: Legend, Tomb Raider: Underworld, Primal Carnage, Yosumin, Sparkle 2 Evo, The Last Remnant, Bloodrayne 2, Gyromancer, Journal, Lara Croft & the Temple of Osiris, Bedlam, Just Cause Collection, Monochroma, Tomb Raider: GOTY Edition, Alien: Isolation, Hitman Absolution: Elite Edition, South Park™: The Stick of Truth™, Sniper Elite 3
All nominators of valid nominees will be invited to a group with access to a train with Murdered: Soul Suspect, Millie, Front Mission Evolved, Room 13 and Evil Within

But wait, there's more!

In 6 months we'll check on all nominees to see their progress in becoming the next community leaders. We'll measure their progress in 5 categories:

• most events/puzzles made since start of event (nominees have to provide links for this one)
• most ga's made since start of event
• most comments since start of event
• most real cv value of ga's made since start of event
• best known / most popular (measured by some sort of poll)

The top 3 of all categories will get invited to a special group with special goodies. If a winner of a previous category gets another top 3 spot, number 4 will take his/her place and so on. 15 winners in total, no more. Their nominators can expect something too.

NOTE: If a nominee doesn't want to be part of this event, just decline the invite to the group and you're out. Simple as that.
