The Touhou Giveaways group was founded by Archi on February 18th 2015. We're a small, ratio-based group, sharing the spirit of giving away and winning games on SteamGifts.

To make things even cooler, we have implemented many unique features into the simple concept of a private giveaway group, and today we are one of the most "technologically advanced" group that exists on SG. The objective is simple: the group should be a nice addition to the SteamGifts community and should require no extra effort from the member.

All group giveaways are tracked by our bot, which automatically adds new giveaways to the database, track winners, calculate points and ratio, detect current/finished giveaways, statistics, and even reward members with our very own touhou achievements! Yep! You read it right, our group is fully automated. And thanks to that, our members can focus on what is the most important - creating and winning giveaways, instead of being forced to manually add them through the website or post links in a group thread. Thanks to that, we achieved our main objective - our members are happy to make giveaways the same way they would do public or private giveaways, and ArchiBoT does everything else.

To make the precious data gathered by the bot available for the members, we also coded our very own Touhou Giveaways website, which acts as a "frontend" to the data gathered by the bot. Users can now check their stats, ongoing giveaways, giveaways won and many other useful information we have gathered in a nice, fancy and modern way.

We're still actively working on improving our group even further.

We're looking for members who:

  • Fulfill all of our requirements (rules)
  • Like our group concept
  • Enjoy winning and giving away games in a nice, small group of friends
  • Being active in our Touhou group chat will be a plus
  • Being "recognized" on SG forums will be a plus
  • Having good ratio of giveaway won/created on SG will be a plus

If you think that you'd be a good addition to our group, do not wait any longer and send in your application right away!

Currently we're looking for up to 5 new members. Tell us why you're interested in joining, and perhaps you'll have an opportunity to get our precious touhou cheevos

Oh, yeah, mandatory amine giveaway, free for all. We'll choose lucky winners after the giveaway finishes, until then we're accepting applications.

I'm lv2 and I gave more games than I won :)
I can do some GAs, but don't expect AAA titles, I don't work yet, so I can give only bundled games for now.

Can I join your group please ? =3

I've made it to level 4. I don't know if I'm "known" but I like making puzzles and such.
At present I've only given away bundle games because this summer was my first summer vacation as a Substitute and I'm waiting to work more this year. So far I've had one day for the 2015-16 school year. Yay. :/ Hopefully this will change shortly and I can do some non-bundled games.

Anyways, I'm pretty sure my ratio is okay... And I'm interested because I think it would be nice to get to know more people.

I am still learning certain rules about SG and Steam (Never really occurred to me before about something that someone taught me today, but hey, we all learn.)

Anyways... So, yes. Hi, JustArchi. Here is my declaration of interest.
However, if I'm not selected, I would understand, there are much older, more prominent members that are around, and may be interested. I'm sure if they tried to join, you could find 5 more qualified people than me, but it never hurts to apply :)

Thanks! :D

There's nothing wrong in giving away bundle games, while some recently recruited members do make bunch of non-bundle gibs, most of the groups still consists of bundle games. Also, perfect application. I can't say anything more (yet), but I foresee a bright future :3.

It's not a requirement to fullfill any of those, it's just a hint what may affect the decision. The only "real" requirement is L2+, but group is rather exclusive and we're not inviting everyone, rather a dedicated group of people that will be grateful for the opportunity.

If you ever be interested in joining, you know what to do :). Cheers!

I'm quite interested in joining this group, it seems to be somewhat a bundled games focused group just like BundleQuest for example, which sounds quite appealing.
The whole ratio system sounds somewhat interesting to be honest.
I'd love to join, peace! ;D

To be honest, I never state it officially but BQ was the main inspiration for Touhou Giveaways. I just wanted to fix it flaws, automate it more and achieve something even more ambitious. It took some time (half a year!) but now I think I achieved what I initially wanted.

Touhou games is accepting applications, yey!
I'd really love to join, you know u.u
I have not been here for the longest time but yesterday I finally managed to reach level 3, giving away games is extremely satisfying to me and having the chance to win them is of course exciting.
Also I'd love to be able to make a group of friends that love games as I do, since I don't have many people to play/chat with at th moment!
I hope you'll consider me β™‘
Lots of love!

It's sad that I can't get ROW games 'cause they're so freaking expensive over here (after currency conversion), so even if I meet the requirements (which I don't), I can't even give away anything that is not region-restricted. x:

Best of luck to the people who wants to join~ :3

We have some members from region-restricted regions and while they indeed can't buy steam gifts, they're doing pretty well with bundles.

Everything is still hella expensive here after currency conversion (I mean, 5 USD, give or take, can get you 3 square meals over here).

Maybe someday. x'D

Well, I don't force anyone into making giveaways or joining the group. I'm just saying that region restriction is not an excuse :3.

Mm, I thought my name would speak for itself, but I guess I was mistaken. Allow me to start over.

My name is Maxwell Thunder II, and it is my intention to join your group! I must say I heard some pretty good things about it from a very recent friend (ayane), and it interested me very much. But I also must say that when I saw the achievements you had on your webpage a burning desire to acquire them all suddenly surged through my intestines. I'm not really an achievement hunter but if you make me a member I promise to dedicate my whole life on getting each and everyone of those achievements! And so concludes my application form.

Oh, and I'm also level 4, have a pretty good ratio, make forum threads often, have plenty of time, so being active in the group won't be a problem, fullfill most (since some must be done inside the group) rules, enjoy giving and winning drools games and I like cheese.

Some for sure, but I wouldn't call it many. You can check yourself on SG group page or our website.

I'd like to apply. I'm one of the original members of Bundle Quest and I was part of the old Bundlelicious group. Some of the giveaways I create on BQ end with 0 entries but I checked the Touhou Giveaways stats page and many of those games got multiple entries in your group so it'd be great to give away some of those on Touhou. I buy bundles every week so I end up with a lot of spare keys, I have a .txt with hundreds of games. Even though I have a +247/-0 feedback, it's more difficult to trade right now because I have close to 3k games so I usually already own all the games people are offering in exchange of mine. Even though I mainly give away bundle games I normally create giveaways for non-bundle games too.
I'm currently level 5 on SteamGifts (I'm on the road to lvl 6) and you may recognize me from PB, BQ and SG as I usually comment in the forums and take part in the discussions. I'm also pretty active in other steam-related sites/communities.
Great work with the bot and the website btw, congratulations
