Notable Odds - A close-knit gaming community on Steamgifts since February 2012!

Deadline to make applications: June 3, 2013

UPDATE: Recruitment open

Greetings, community!

It's my pleasure to announce that the Notable Odds is recruiting new members for both the open and private portions of the group again. The open part of the group is open for anyone to join, assuming they meet some minimal requirements.

By being a member of the Notable Odds, you will be able to participate in many events that we organize, such as Creative contests(Writing/Drawing/Photography/Singing, with prizes), poker tournaments (with prizes), inter-group battles in TF2 and other games(and co-ops), maybe even some giveaways now and then and etc..

We are looking for people who:

• 1) are active;

• 2) nice to chat with;

• 3) and interested in playing games together and joining contests/events.

We are NOT looking for people to make giveaways, and you will never be expected to.

We are not interested in beggars, cheaters, or annoying people in general.

If you're interested in being a part of our community, please make a comment below indicating your interest, and whether you wish to also be considered for the private part of the group, and make sure you meet these requirements:

• 1) A good Steam rating

• 2) A good comment/entry ratio(2:1), my profile as an example

• 3) To keep the number of members manageable: at least $50 contribution value on steamgifts.com

• 4) Not someone who was just kicked from the group due to inactivity.

Those wishing to join the private portion are subject to a few further requirements. In addition to meeting the usual requirements and abiding by the usual rules:

• Applicants should have a minimum gifted value of $150.

• Members are expected not to leak private giveaway links (obviously).

• Members are required to have at least 15 points' worth of giveaways shared only with the other members of the private part of the group every two months.

Some final information:

1) If you are interested in joining the giveaways part of the group, you will have a better chance if you participate in the group and show us that you are a nice fellow. We still re-evaluate that kind of membership at the beginning of every month.

2) The admins reserve the right to kick people out of the group without explanations. However, this only happens when people are caught disrespecting SG rules, leaking private links, or disrespecting people in general.

Please note that these requirements are guidelines to give you an idea of how we select new members from amongst the applicants*. They are ultimately flexible and if you are interested in joining, you should feel free to say so in this thread.

*We use them as rough benchmarks for character, experience, activity, participation, and similar qualities we desire in applicants. We very frequently take mitigating circumstances into account.

TL;DR? - You won't be invited ;)

Feel free to join our chat. It’s open for guests, but don’t beg for invites there, don’t idle, and don’t attempt to add or message group members privately to ask for invites.
