Hey everyone. So I recently came upon the concept of "paying it forward" again. It's kinda like just taking the extra second to be polite - it just takes an extra second to pay it forward, and hopefully make someone's day better.

It's simple:

  1. Receive something of your own.

  2. Pay it forward by giving away three other things (well, three random acts of kindness, but in SG Style; gifts.)

  3. Feel happy that you may have just made someone's crappy day better.


It's not much - they're not very popular games in terms of people who actually want to play it. Regardless, some people out there might want to play these games.

I don't want the winners of these giveaways to feel obligated to give back, or even follow the concept of paying it forward, but...well...it's your choice.

If you've seen the film Pay It Forward (2000), you'll recall that it was a seventh grader who started this. A young, eleven years old, seventh grader. I'm not saying that just because they're young that it's worth noting - anyone who has the courage to try and make a difference in this world is worth noting. You can too. It doesn't matter how small your act of kindness can be. After all, I think it's worth it to give something away if it can make someone's day better.


Anyway, yeah, I won something today (well, yesterday by the time I'm done making this thread)...and I'm going to try and pay it forward, and hopefully make someone's day. Here are the giveaways:

It's all that I have, I'm just a student after all, with no income in the slightest. I suppose if anyone wants either Avadon - The Black Fortress, Crayon Physics Deluxe, Metro 2033, or DOTA 2, you can go ahead and contact me on Steam. Only if you're actually planning on playing the game/redeeming the key though.

Once again, it's not much. If you win, I leave it up to you to decide if you want to pay it forward or not. Happy holidays to you, whoever took the time to read this thread in its entirety. :)

My dad visits his local Tim Hortons so often that when he goes through the drive through he just has to say "It's Walter" and then drive to the window and they'll have his order ready.

its some interesting thing that you are saying, but keep in mind that some people might not have access to buying games, such as me, that i dont know anyone with a credit card and stuff like that XD but yes, it's kinda the honestiest thing to do (i dunno if honestiest is a word tho) i saw one post 2 days ago of one guy giving some beta keys of Firefall with a condition (when you activate your key you can give 5 to whoever you like to, he said that we all should post at least 2 of those 5 keys, so we all can get a chance to play it, i did it of course, and yes, things like that feel kinda good, becouse everyone can do that.

Sorry if my english isn't good enough. Greetings
