Okay - entire Single Player campaign complete - final map and score http://imgur.com/a/bYYHP achievements http://imgur.com/a/s8rx0 4am exhausted. Final zones are a mixture of twitchy timing, mechanics, memory, and luck. Not going to try to get Gold Medals on everything, happy with 4 total and a total score of 17494. I need a turn-based strategy game for the next week to detox after that!

group should add min. SG-ratio and some other rules to avoid leecher...!
will do more gibs if this get changed... :)
Comment has been collapsed.
i ment the ratio on SG when u enter... peope with 0.1 etc. shouldnt be allowed... :/
this will prevent me and maybe others to from creating...
Comment has been collapsed.
It probably won't matter since this group is about games being played and not ratios but you should really clarify what you are talking about because I have no idea if you mean Sent: Won, Level, CV or Real CV.
Comment has been collapsed.
Hi :)
sent/won ratio... i don't have a good feeling wih those people entering my giveaways...
Comment has been collapsed.
That's total ok... 0.7 is a fine ratio...
talking about very low 0.1 - 0.4 as example... :)
EDIT: btw, your real value sent ratio i pretty higher...^^
Comment has been collapsed.
So far I've only given away 2 games in this group but both times I've been extremely lucky with my winners both ratio and playingwise.
But yeah, I've had my doubts with some people I've seen in the recruitment thread as well. Not so much for ratio but when it comes to idling.
Comment has been collapsed.
yes that's what i saw when i checked a few gibs, winners and members...
i think a ratio with 0.5+ would lower this...
Comment has been collapsed.
i don't want kick low level out of my gibs, just heavy leecher, idler etc... :(
Comment has been collapsed.
I understand, I try to encourage people myself to level up by making a few nice giveaways. However, as mentioned, the goal of our group is to see people play their games and as long as they do so, they are very welcome here. To prevent leeching I think the contributor levels work out well enough for that goal. When people don't want to create giveaways for the group, that's fine. If you feel like your extra gibs are more appreciated in some other group, please make them there and also public giveaways should still be there after all. :) We like SteamGifts and want to go as much as possible with how things work out here. One thing I like to point out is that we have some members here that seem to win allot, but also allot of giveaways that gain only a few entries. I'm happy they want to play it then, low ratio or not. Big giveaways gain 200+ entries anyway, so you have to be very lucky winning them.
Comment has been collapsed.
like i said a level cap wouldn't help, it's not ratio related... and i still want lowlevels to enter... maybe should wait till BLAEO gets a few spots... :(

Just won Renowned Explorers: International Society. Going to give it a try right away ^^.
Update: Not sure if I like it. Just completed the tutorial (which mainly consisted of reading a bunch of stuff) and completed my first expedition. Upgraded a character with an archeologist perk with excavation specialty, but during these choices I had no idea what which thing would do what (10+ specialty choiced with only the name and no explanation what would happen).

Hi Wargharbl! Your welcome to join. Renowned Explorers: International Society will do fine. Since you mentioned your not sure you like it, your free to change it if you want. Otherwise I hope you have fun playing it further and please check back here when you have finished the game. :)
Comment has been collapsed.
Hi Wargharbl, we are currently in the process of clearing out all our old join requests and I came across yours. I would like to know if you would still be interested to join the group?
If I won't get a reply in a week I will simply mark you as not interested to join on our list, but you would still be welcome to join once you have beaten the game :)
Comment has been collapsed.
Ok sure, if you ever end up changing your mind feel free to reapply :)

Hi! You posted a message on my thread and I really like the concept of this group. :)
Wanted to join by creating a giveaway but I can't right now so I will play my recent win: Nightmares from the Deep: The Cursed Heart
I really like HOG in general, so I can't wait to play it! Will probably play it with my father, since when I was little we played HOG together and it was really fun. (▰˘◡˘▰)
Comment has been collapsed.
Hello Croquemitaine! :) I'm happy to hear so and that you like to join, your very welcome. ^^ Nightmares from the Deep: The Cursed Heart will do fine. We seem to have allot of HOG fans in our group, and so many HOG giveaways that they don't get enough entries anymore, so I guess you'll be happy in the group. :) Please check back here when you have finished playing Nightmares from the Deep and I'll send you the invitation!
Comment has been collapsed.
And it's done! :D Still have to replay it to have the Mahjong achievements but I will keep that for later!
I won't say no to some more HOG, I don't have that much on Steam (but still have those I had on CD back then) and I like to play these!
Comment has been collapsed.
Thank you, I will check them out! :3 Can't wait to post some giveaways too, when I can. ^^
Comment has been collapsed.
Alright, won four games with 3 HOG! I'm kinda fast when it comes to those type of games, so after my exams I will have some fun and try to do some giveaways too. :3

I'm interested in joining! I'll be getting started once I finish sniper elite 😂. I love the concept of this group and I would love to put my giveaways in it

Hello there Chief!
DARK SOULS™ II: Scholar of the First Sin - from the Humble Monthly is waiting impatiently in my key list to be given away.
Would like to see that one played, so why not sign me up?

Hi MaxMadness, your profile went to private while one of the group rules it that you need to have a public profile. Please change it back to public at your earliest convenience if you like to remain part of the group. Please understand that this is needed in order to check if you are playing the games you may win in this group.
Comment has been collapsed.
Hi Reforced!
Since you need to check my profile NOW, i've sent you an invite on steam. my profile is <friends only> for a reason and will stay that way for a couple of days more.
According to the rules, i've already played one of my two wins from the group for a decent amount of time. This took me like 1/3 into the game so far, as can be checked in my screenshots.
Feel free to check anytime you like or at the end of the week, which gives me still 2 weeks to play the game. The other game was won only two days ago, so plenty of time left.
Comment has been collapsed.
Hi MaxMadness! The rule is very clear stated above, "You have and keep a public Steam profile". Giveaway creators and others interested also like to see your statistics, we use our group tool to grab this data to make this transparent, which requires you to have a public profile. Since you like the rules, we formally give members three days to change it back after a warning has been issued. I hope that within the next two days you have made it public again and whatever the reason not to do so will be gone.

Hello, I would love to join the group.
I will play Tracks of Triumph: Industrial Zone. It is one I have won only recently, so I don't have any playtime on it at all.
I do however still have some exams this week, so I think I will start playing the game in the weekend if that is not problem.
Comment has been collapsed.
Hi timeblizzard, your welcome to join! Tracks of Triumph: Industrial Zone will do fine for your introduction play. I hope you will enjoy playing it (after your exams) and let me know when you did. :)
Comment has been collapsed.
Hi timeblizzard, we are currently in the process of clearing out all our old join requests and I came across yours. I would like to know if you would still be interested to join the group?
If I won't get a reply in a week I will simply mark you as not interested to join on our list, but you would still be welcome to join once you have beaten the game :)

Hello Reforced :) I'd love to join your group. Thats a time in a year when I have a lot of exams so I will make a giveaway for classic RollerCoaster Tycoon® 2 for someone who will have more time for that :). Of course If i join and win giveaway that I wanted I will play it ;)
Comment has been collapsed.
Already made a giveaway :) Thanks for your wishes and inviting ;)
Comment has been collapsed.
Hi guys, I would like to join, but I have no unplayed games xD I started Allan Wake today, so I am only 71 mins in and got only 3 achievements. If that counts, invite away :) If not, let me know and I shall wait for my next win :)
Comment has been collapsed.
Ah, great idea and I love the alternative! :) I will pick something out then! :)
Comment has been collapsed.
Alright, I pick something that I bought on a sale and haven't touched it since, because it is a rather huge project and I wanted to beat as many SG wins as I could before I take on my library :) The game is Baldur's Gate: Enhanced Edition.
Comment has been collapsed.
Hehe, oh I definitely will enjoy playing it, since I love RPGs, love Forgotten Realms games and I'm a sucker for Isometric RPG's in general :D
Comment has been collapsed.
Two months later - here I am xD Phaha, life, huh? :D
Anyway, I knew BG will be a too massive project to use it for applying, but I had no other unplayed wins and I didn't mind using this one anyway :D However, the achievements are a b***h to get in this game, so I decided to rack up some more hours in it... and then other wins came xD So I had to give those a proper attention too, at least try them out xD
All reasons aside - I am ready to join, if you guys still want me on board, that is. :D
Comment has been collapsed.
Well, thank you very much, I appreciate it. I just didn't want you to think I idled the game for so many hours so I had to get more achievements :D
Comment has been collapsed.
Thanks. Sadly the public Steam profile is a requirement. We use our own group tool who syncs your winnings at random times and we want to make it possible for giveaway creators to look at your Steam profile as well.
Comment has been collapsed.
I'll be playing my sole steamgift winning, Torchlight II.
https://www.steamgifts.com/go/comment/JOr9xgb
From my understanding of the above discussion I should be able to join the group either when I finish Torchlight II or when I have played it for at least 5 hours and earned some achievements.
Am I right?
Comment has been collapsed.
Hi again! Happy you have read the OP and commented how you'd like to enter. :) Torchlight II will do, but it should take you about 20 hours to finish. As it's your only win and you don't have enough to choose from, I'll allow you to play it shorter than that -- indeed 5 hours. You are also free to pick a unplayed game from your Steam library instead if you'd like, that you will finish completely. Let me know. :)
As for group giveaways, always join with the intention to play the game completely, only if it's disappointing, we'll not torture you more than half of the game up to 5 hours. That how it's meant. More information you can find on our groups Steam page and the FAQ posted there, if you're interested. :)
Comment has been collapsed.
Normally we'd like to see that introduction game played at least half of the average playtime, but in this case as it's (still) your only win you may. Invitation was send, welcome to the group! :) You may also want to check out the Unlucky-7, it's a Steam group for members that won less than 8 gifts here. You certainly seem to qualify.
Comment has been collapsed.
Never mind, it looks like all GA (public, group, private, etc) do show up on my https://www.steamgifts.com/giveaways/search?type=new and are filtered already.
Comment has been collapsed.
That's good to hear. It's not available if you look at our group giveaways page (as it gives a complete overview), however on the front page of SteamGifts the group giveaways will also show up between the public ones. You can click on Group in the browse menu to filter out the public giveaways, and only show group/whitelist giveaways. :)
Comment has been collapsed.
Hi LZW! Your welcome to join. That game doesn't have achievements sadly. Seeing your options are limited I'll allow it, but only if you make a few screenshots capturing your progress and upload them to Steam. Otherwise, please pick another game; you may also pick one from your Steam library. Let me know! ^^
Comment has been collapsed.
No problem :) The Janitor will do fine! Have fun playing that and please check back here when you did.
Comment has been collapsed.
Hi Shadders! Your welcome to join. There are collector groups as well, I like to see SteamGifts as a place for everything concerning sharing games. ^^ This indeed is the right place if you like to see your giveaway games getting played. Invitation was send!
Comment has been collapsed.
Hi Reforced, I'd like to join by making a gib ( ՞ਊ՞)ノ
Comment has been collapsed.
Why is there no option 3 for people who haven't won anything yet? ;D
Comment has been collapsed.
Nice :)
I can play through Nihilumbra before the end of the next week. It has an achievement for beating the story mode. Is it ok for you? ;)
Comment has been collapsed.
I started playing it today but turns out that I'm only getting the in-game achievements (it's one of those games which have them) but not on Steam :(
I don't want to play it until I find a solution to this problem, but as it most likely will take some time I would like to switch the game. I won a few since my original post here and I'm picking CastleStorm: http://steamcommunity.com/id/pietruszka11/stats/CastleStorm?tab=achievements
Comment has been collapsed.
Strange, for me they worked fine when playing that game. Anyway, changing for CasteStorm is fine! Have fun playing that game then and please check back here when you did. :)
Comment has been collapsed.
Almost at 100% with CastleStorm. I'm searching right now for someone to do the multiplayer achievements :)
Also I've found out what was the problem with Nihilumbra. Turns out it was this time of the year for me when some games stop working correctly because you need to manually update Microsoft Visual C++ 2005/2008/2010 libraries ;)
So I'll probably play that one soon too :)
