Playing Appreciated: Giveaways with the intention for the games to be played within a month

Introduction

Playing Appreciated is a group for members that like to play games they win and for giveaway creators that like to see their games getting played. This sounds simple, yet requires commitment and dedication from members by filtering out games they like to play from all group giveaways and when won playing those within one month. In return members will get higher chances of winning games they want and creators will know their giveaways have a high chance of getting played. The group has more than 1000 members and over 25000 historical giveaways.

Group rules

• You need to set and keep your Steam privacy settings for My profile and Game details public (example);

How to join

1. Make sure you are not violating any SteamGifts rules;

Comment with the name of the game before you start playing it and comment again when you finished playing it. Please upload some screenshots to Steam as well. The game needs to be played in online mode on your own Steam account.
   • Option 2: Supporting the cause by creating a group exclusive giveaway of a game that you would like to see getting played by other group members within a month as soon as your membership request was approved. The game should not have been given away free before (marked by ** when creating a giveaway on SteamGifts). Please leave the name of the game you would like to giveaway in the application comment.
