Oh hi there!

I will soon turn 29 and I have to say that life has been kind to me, since I joined this community back in 2013, I have managed to find the love of my life, to marry her, to find a place I could call home, to have a kid (he is now almost 2 years old, oh God, how the time flies), to find a job I actually enjoy and many many more. I don't think that I could have asked for more.

Nevertheless, I would like to say, that I have not been as active in this great community as I would like to - not just in terms of giveaway making but also engaging with all of you through discussion, events etc.... buuuuut as most of you know the saying "man proposes, God disposes". Same goes for the "tonight is the night that I will get to play all of those great games in my Steam library, amarite"?

I have won games here, I have gifted games here and I make this thread to appreciate all of you - the Steamgifters.

First of all, there are over 625 people that have added me to their whitelist. To all of you, I say thank you. Any time I notice this, I try to repay the kindness. However, I am quite picky when it comes to joining giveaways and extremely keen on hiding games that I have no interest in, so I often do not find out that you added me to your good boys and girls list (right away). So bear with me.

Here is something for my bluehearts in return! There are some other GAs too, feel free to join them too (those of you who are able to... or will be able to).

Secondly, I am part of a couple of great groups here on Steamgifts, including (but not limited to):

Unlucky-7 - first group I ever joined here. Amazing guys. Thank you. And my second favourite <Pandora>, great giveaways!

Also shout out to: Charitable Loosers, Anhänger des moppelversums, Positive Thoughts and Duquality.

There should be a couple of giveaways for you guys (the members of these groups) as well.

The times when I used to have plenty of time to make trains are now long gone but I couldn't resist to make one (well, two) for this occasion. So there should be something for the trains lovers out there too.

First up we have a train for everyone right here.
.
Aaaaand a train for those who like to share (minimum requirement to enter is LEVEL 3) right here.

You guys know the drill :-)

Anyways! Sorry for the this wall of text. Hope it makes at least a little bit of sense and good luck with your entries, if you do choose to join any of the above-posted giveaways.

Carry on!

P.S. The trains are quite a key cleanup too, some of them date to 2017 Humble bundles. I do not expect any problems, but if there are any issues, winners, please contact me directly and we will try to sort it out.

Thank you for your continuous giveaways! You have a career here.
I'm a bit older than you but my child is about the same, I'm always struggling to get the time (and energy lol) to play (I'm even selling my gaming pc), so congratulations and enjoy your family!

With all the ugliness, endless depressing news cycle and pandemic BS it 's good to read about nice things and it seems like you have yourself a good life. I know we're supposed to want to change the world but love, some stability, kids, it doesn't get any better than this, methinks.
Happy Birthday to you Ottis
oh and I'm loving your antibot measure ;)

There are downsides, to all of that of course. But the upsides outweigh them by a lot. I did not really want to get into all that negative stuff since it did not affect me (or rather us) in the long run.

Thank you for the kind words, Fluffster :)

Congrats!
It's a shame that we often don't have time for everything we want to do in life when we start working, hopefully we can expect positive changes there.
Oh, and
Hvala puno!

I may not know you, but, based on your post, you seem like a pretty awesome person, so I'm glad you're enjoying what life has bestowed unto you!

I'm not sure if I'm missing something, but the train links don't work for me.

Check the links in your browser. Maybe they are missing something or have something extra, that breaks them :)

There were a couple of obstacles on the way and even now, especially with the pandemic (and livimg in one of the hardest hit places statistically - Czech Republic)... I just try to focus on the positive and keep moving forward. Thank you for the nice comment :)

Heya Ottis, Firstly, Happy Birthday! I remembered the time when you were getting married, I believed you were so happy you shared the good news on SG forums :) Well, just look at how time flies by so fast, just not too long ago, you went from being a husband and now a father & before you know it, you'd get upgraded to become a grandfather in no time at all :P It's OK not to be active in SG as you used to after all, real life stuff & family comes first. So, cheers to you & family & the positivity on this tread :)

Oh, thanks for the GAs & bump!

You said it, the time DOES fly very fast. Sometimes I cant believe it. And sometimes I do wish, that I was still that highschool/university student with all that free time and nothing to worry about. But then I look at my son and there is no way I would go back, he means the world to me :)
