[BROADCASTING]

The Train is arriving at the final destinations today at different hours! Thank you all for these 2 months of adding carts, adding links, Bumps, and more bumps.

To the ones that kept the train moving: Thank you so much, even if you just contributed with one single GA. You all rock!

Thank you for the help, keeping the train clean, broadcasting derailed carts, malfunctions, bumps etc.

Hope you win something!

INBOUND TRAIN RULES/GUIDELINES

  • Must end September 30 (whatever time you want, no need to be syncing timezones :) )
  • No region restrictions
  • Set to "Invite Only"
  • Set Contributor Level no higher than 4, if your game is a super good one and you feel the need for a level 5 go for it... But try to avoid it... I'm already extending this to level 4 instead of 3 since most bot accounts and double accounters get to level 2 easily)
  • Number your cart in the description
  • Post URL in the comments of the last cart in the train.
  • Check your GA comments regularly until you get a link for the next cart. You are responsible for adding the NEXT link in your GA description to keep the train growing.
  • If there is already a link for another cart in the comments of the last one, wait until a new cart is added.
  • No DLCs
  • Game value 5P or more ( This is just a recommendation, we don't want the train carts full of those asset flips and hentai. However... Do as you please... I'm sure no one will kick you out of the train for making 1 or 2 carts with 1P games.)
  • If you're entering GAs, please try to add at least one cart to the train (Again... it's a recommendation. Not everyone can pay for games to offer. The train ride is free, but if you can't give back, try to not click "enter" on all the GA's for example, be a team player in this great community.)

If you are blacklisted: If you run into a cart where the creator blacklisted you, you can use another browser that is not logged into Steamgifts (or log off this one) to view the GA and get the link to the next cart in line or just ask in the previous GA for the link, some good samaritan should be able to give it to you or just right click on the link to the cart where the creator blacklisted you and select "open in new private window" (or "open link in new incognito window" for chrome).

Easy Template for the Carts:

[number of wagon]
<<< [Previous]("previous link") ||| [BUMP](https://www.steamgifts.com/discussion/qhziK/extended-new-rulescommunity-train-70lvl-0-5) ||| [Next]("next link") >>>
"optional text by creator"

Stay safe and have fun!!

even if they are undesired games or games you already own?

I think this is feature of all trains. And I don't think it's a flaw as I discovered some good games that were in "hidden" list.

you have to hunt for the little 'next'

As for this, you can use ESGST extension that allows you to scroll through the cart with hotkeys which is very convenient for me.

There is no fun here! We are just crazy people that like clicking stuff. Nothing enjoyable about it.

If you don't understand the community train, maybe participating in it is not for you...
It's about community,
About people making something happen together.
About filtering bots/auto joiners
About people talking to each other.
About better chances of winning
and many more...
If people stop doing events to engage people, we might as well just all create bots to enter stuff and turn off the forum part of the website...

You have been an SG user for 4 years and only on this year's train, you managed to be confused?

This^, and I can't imagine how annoying it would be for the creator to manually add every link into the page. It's annoying enough going through the trains to add in every 10th cart, but adding every link to the discussion, especially in trains with over 1000 and doubly (or quadrupley?) for Fiddler and his 4.5K train. This is just the best possible method so far

Honestly, it's just kind of cool to see how big we can make the chain of giveaways as a group and reading all the descriptions throughout. I also enjoy puzzle giveaways too though, and I guess the same could be argued with those, even more so since they require some effort that might end up leading to games you already own or don't like.

And no one is really forcing you to go through the train so if you really don't feel it's worth your time, you can just ignore it. There are community events out there and puzzles that I ended up skipping since I didn't feel it was worth my time, and I'm happy for those who did end up enjoying or having time for them and ended up having a better win chance as a result.

Yep, different strokes for different folks. I absolutely adore the puzzles but I also understand that it's not everyone's cup of tea.
