It's my 5th Cakeday on the 12th and my 22nd birthday on the 28th, that leaves us with seventeen days to celebrate. And what better way to celebrate, in the middle of May, than... a Chrismas song?

How does this work? Every day I'll add one more game than the day before. So one GA on day 1, two more GAs on day 2, three more on day 3... for a total of 153. ONE HUNDRED AND FIFTHY THREE. ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED?!
But where's the catch, you ask? Simple. They're all games I either liked or would like to play. So you'll have to abide by my horrible, terrible taste.
Dont worry now, there's a double catch. Day 17 is made of games entirely picked out by my Whitelist, so you can count on them to have better taste than me. And to thank them, they get an official Day 18.

Huge thanks to support for providing me with 100 extra slots, making this all possible!
Some of the games will be delivered as keys, some as gifts, so keep an eye out.

All GAs are level 3+ to 5+, depending on how I feel that day. They all last 36 hours so you have more than enough time, and are locked behind minor bot protections. They double as human protections because I put some horrible jokes in there.
I'll also be posting every GA a bit ahead of its beginning, I change shifts at work every two days so I can't guarantee I'm gonna be up at midnight to put them online at the exact right moment.

And now, without further ado, let's all sing together to the notes of one of the worst Christmas song ever:

Ahem

On the seventeenth day of Conti, my Space Cat sent to me...

seventeen WL picks
sixteen spectacular fights
fifteen childhood classics
fourteen jumping jackasses
thirteen RPG ruckusses
twelve open world excursions
eleven action flicks
ten coop shenanigans
nine car crashing criminals
eight good disappointments
seven brainless zombies
six creative copycats
five cozy farms
four automated bases
three caped crusaders
two anime tie-ins
and the one game you always thank for.

WL-EXCLUSIVE DAY 18

Why am I doing all this? Eh. On one hand it's to give back to the community for all I've got in these years- but I can't deny it's a massive ego thing for me. So by all means, comment, celebrate and state just how awesome I am.

CLOSING THOUGHTS:
I'd like to thank once more everyone for partecipating and ESPECIALLY the kind comments. My birthday is usually a pretty sad day for me, one of the few which make me regret being such a loner. But this year, instead of sulking alone, I woke up to over 280 messages of awesome awesome people like you wishing me a happy birthday. I won't lie, I was very, very moved. Just for that, I'd say the event was a huge success!
Maybe it had a couple flaw, from 4 keys which had to be replaced due to region locks to the quality taking a dip in the later days, from me honestly losing steam around day 10 to getting sick which made staying up late making GAs a pain... but the one thing I wouldn't have changed is you guys. You're the best community I could ever be part with.
Except those 2 people who couldn't be bothered to thank me after winning. Yes, I'm still salty about that :P
All in all, that's that. The last GAs will run a bit more, but we're pretty much closing shop here. I don't know if I'll do it again next year or I'll do something different, we'll see. And one last thing: I may have been the one who put the money, time and effort in, but it was you guys that made this event really, truly special. So... thank you! :)

Happy 🎂 day and early birthday

"They double as human protections because I put some horrible jokes in there" OK, I am afraid to know what horrible jokes we will suffer

I see people saying they wanted to be in your WL because Clair Obscur. I wanted to be in your WL because of Everlasting Flowers - Where there is a will, there is a way, because it's from the creators of Aokana - Four Rhythms Across the Blue

The original plan was to buy myself a new PC... but you'll see, this event will cost me A LOT. There's SO MANY good unbundled games coming up... so instead I'll just get myself Burger King. Love myself a burger with enough calories to kill a small primate.

Good morning, Conti.
First of all, happy birthday and happy Cake Day!
Ever since you told me you were planning an event, I’ve been really looking forward to it.
But I never imagined it would turn out to be such a huge, amazing event.
(Well, considering how much you contributed to the mega event in March, maybe I should have expected it.)
At the very least, I don’t think I had such a wonderful spirit of contributing to a community when I was your age.
You said this event was “massive ego thing for me,” but your actions have brought joy, smiles, and happiness to many people.
Even if it were truly your ego, it’s the kind of ego that makes people happy—and that’s something to be valued.
If there were words greater than “thank you,” I would use them without hesitation.
But since I’m not good at English and rely on translation, I can’t find the perfect words to express it.
So, from the bottom of my heart—thank you so much!

Happy Cakeday Conti, and that's a big GA commitment you madman.
Remember to drink water in between all the cakes people sent your way.

P.S. Conti's Ego by the end of the event
