The world record for the fastest constructed steam engine was set on 10-11 December in 1891, commissioned by Great Eastern Railway at the Stratford Works in the United Kingdom. That train was a GER Class Y14, made up of some 169,452 combined parts and constructed in 9 hours 47 minutes by a combined team of 142 men and boys.
(Sources & Great Eastern Journal)

Random train fact just because I wanted some kind of excuse to finally post this, after spending nearly five hours on the setting everything up. More so, if you count doing surveys to collect the games... But, as part of cakeday celebrating an entire year here on SG, decided what better way to celebrate than to put up my first ever train? This will last until Next Wednesday, February 3rd.

Note that trains #1 to #5 end earlier or later than planned. #6 onwards are the main ones set to all the same time!

You can collect your ticket over at the Ticket Station.
Note there are some minor rules. a 0.5 Ratio of Wins to Gives (so, give 1, won 2 is acceptable), all wins activated, and you must not have won the same game more than once.

Good luck, and have fun!

I also have another thread running with a singular - nonbundled, though nothing extreme - giveaway for Lv2+.
That one ends on Saturday, January 3rd.

10 and 13 hours respectively between both threads since last bump... Seems time for a new one, doesn't it? Still a few days on em both left to enter!

Don't all try to jump on at once though.

Quite chilly last night, and no bumps for 12 hours again. Elsa must have visited and froze the place!
Still 5 days + odd hours left on this one~ I'll be tossing some public GA's up soon, Lv1s, to advertise a little with different end times. Keep an eye open as they're different from the train!

I'm just looking through, and it seems some of the timers went a bit... wonky on the train carts.
Some giveaways are set to end at 11am, others at 1pm, and others still at 10pm
Which is kinda odd, since I was copy-pasting the end dates to try to set them all to 1pm, a time I'd be around to get everything sent out easily.

The earliest ends in about 12 hours from this post. #2 & #5 end in 12 hours, #1, #3 and #4 in about 23 hours. The rest in 14 hours. Be sure to enter while you can and enjoy!

"Your account is flagged as having some unactivated Wins or your profile is Private."

Weird, I activated everything and my Steam profile is set to public. Is sgtools acting up somehow? I noticed the page took longer than usual to load.

Keys have been delivered for all ended giveaways.
#1 Aerannis, #3 SimpleRockets & #4 Advent Rising from the train will end in about 6 hours.
At the same time as a public giveaway for Rooms: The Main Building (Lv1)

Once the winners have been selected for those four, they'll be delivered as well <3

I was at 5.11 at the time of starting the train, lets see where I get too after the train + random public ones. Also awaiting a small delay on a non-bundled separate giveaway since the winner doesn't have computer access at the moment. I doubt I'll end up much above 5.3 I suppose, so obviously, may be doing this again some time. Whenever I have the patience and a few more bundles have gone by~

Enjoy and congrats to the winners. For Lv1 giveaways, the odds were pretty dang good.
