I was wondering if any one else has bought games deliberately to give away on here on here because of how rewarding it is?

Have you ever bought a game just to give it away on here?

I even bought a game that was on my wishlist and gave it away rather than kept it for myself. Now that is insane! Although, mostly it's cuz I was already in the middle of other games and didn't want to start another one, or else I mostly just wanted it for cards and knew others wanted to actually play it for fun and they would enjoy it more than I would.

I've done that a lot XD But my reasoning was I know they are good games and want people to enjoy them.

Yes, I mostly give away my bundle leftovers but I sometimes buy a bundle just to give it away, or buy a non bundled game to give it away (sometimes even a game from my wishlist)

I buy a lot more games to give away than I do for myself. Right now, I'm in that limbo where I'm just a tad burnt out from playing games. Luckily there are a lot of people here that benefit from my problem. :D

Yes. 3/4 until now. I can't really bother giving away all the small bundle leftovers as they barely give any CV.

One day though, I'll make a super long train with all of them. After-exams maybe.

I once came to this site because I was looking for a place to give my bundle leftovers a good home. But then I started to win some really good games on here and I pretty soon wanted to give back to the community. And found out figuring out fun ways to do giveaways is just as much rewarding as winning good stuff. And a fun event is only good when you give away good (non-bundle)games too (at least in my humble opinion, these are the ones that put the smiles on people's faces). So the answer is: yes. I bought quite a few games only to give them away.
