Last time I did a wishlist GA, a certain someone couldn't participate because they already owned Cats are Liquid, the game I carefully selected to be owned by almost nobody. I won't call out that person, except to say they have the most cat-obsessed profile on Steam, and own every game related in any way to cats in their massive, 6000+ games collection and holy crap will you stop with the cats already?

Because I like a challenge, this time, as promised, the game to enter for is a game not owned by the cat who has everything. It wasn't easy to find, but of the 473 people on my friends list (all SG users), nobody owns this. Let's go.

The winner of this giveaway will receive Combat Raccoon, but also one random game from their wishlist! The rules:

  • The game must have been on your wishlist before 2017-09-02 00:00 UTC. I can see the date, so no quickly adding new stuff!
  • You must have at least three eligible games on your wishlist. No quickly removing everything so you're sure to win one game!
  • Only standalone games are eligible. Not apps, not hardware, not bundles/packs of multiple games, not DLC (game + DLC is OK, though, this doesn't count as a bundle).
  • A game is ineligible if:
    • You already own it;
    • It's free to play;
    • It's not available for purchase on Steam;
    • It's available only as a preorder;
    • It's Bad Rats;
    • It's Combat Raccoon. This should go without saying, but there's always someone who asks.
  • You can have as many ineligible games on your wishlist as you like, I'll just skip them.
  • The game is picked by a true random draw, results are non-negotiable, offer void where prohibited by law, regional restrictions or Congressional budget freezes.

Read all that? Good, then I want you to do one thing to prove it, to prevent people who don't have awesome wishlists from blindly entering: add Combat Raccoon to your wishlist. And now you can enter the giveaway. If it doesn't let you enter, be sure to synchronize SGTools first, using Home -> Synchronize (this is not the same thing as syncing SteamGifts). For those people who are worried about keeping their wishlist clean: if you're not really interested in Combat Raccoon on its own, you can remove it from your wishlist immediately after entering; this will not invalidate your entry.

Here's to hoping I don't run into someone obsessed with raccoons instead of cats.

I NEED to win one of these, then I can die happy.

I even remember one time you dropped a key in S.Gifts chat aimed for me and I couldn't grab it. It's almost as if lady luck doesn't like me.

We've all been friendzoned by lady Luck at some point. It's just her thing.

Looks interesting. Added it to my wishlist but I still fail the secret rules. Oh well. I like platformers and this one looks well done. So It can remain on my list. Everything on my wishlist is something I would be interested in.

Have a bump.

The wishlist is literally the only requirement. Try syncing.

I did.... but with steamgifts. While I know SGTools is a separate thing I did not know it cached. Of course it makes sense that it does. Thanks, forcing a sync within sgtools itself did the trick. I will remember that next time.

You can't, my profile is private! Don't trust me? Soo rude! Seriously though, this looks like a nice initiative

Edit: I won't participate though because I'd quite honestly feel mighty silly if someone would gift me a game from my wishlist. This thread has however inspired me to clean up my wishlist. My current use has shifted somewhat from when I started added things anyway

I've had a few people with private profiles who won GAs (not yet wishlist GAs, though). So far none have refused when I asked them to temporarily un-private their profile (or at least make it visible to friends) so I could check for ownership before activation. If any did, I'd wait the full 7 days before sending over the gift. :-P

I'm was just being deliberately spiteful because of your statement. I get like this sometimes. I hope the humorous part comes a cross though because I'm, at least trying to, just joking around :)

Also, just checked your profile. Kudos!

Oh God, there actually is someone obsessed with raccoons.

Honestly, this shouldn't have surprised me, but still.

And she owns the game too so she can't enter. The mind boggles.

Ha, I had to read all the comments to see if someone told you about tsukichild (and to see if you were feigning ignorance of her existence).

If one wins, but does not want Combat Raccoon, would you delete the GA so that you can use the key for another purpose?

No. The same rules apply as any other GA; if the winner refuses, I reroll. (And obviously they don't get any wishlist game then either.)
