so... this is my 4th round of recruiting white list members on this discussion board.
round 1 was about making me laugh.....
round 2 was be very picky
round 3 was have played last 5 wins

this time around it is going to be a bit different.

this time i will let you explain to me, why you think you deserve to be on my white list.

do not bother to try, if you
1) do not play your wins
2) entered over 15,000 ga's / year
3) have not given away any AA title in the last 6 months
4) are sg level below 5 - unless for some reason you think otherwise

and last but not least, if you saw on the main giveaway page the game name Homefront, and this is your first time visiting the discussion board, you really should not bother.....

current active white list giveaways (till Dec 21st)
Rage 4 copies
Homefront: the Revolution 4 copies


then there is my steam group mrGreen's whitelist where i give away the really good stuff - the only way to join this, is by creating a GA to a game that i decide to join, while you are on my white list....

edit : random signups to this group are met with a blacklist, cause i do not think you are funny

Not really interested in these games, but I do wonder if I qualify...

  1. I didn't play all my wins (yet), but I'm slowly working on it (either playing until finish, or until I decide this is not a game for me):
    https://www.backlog-assassins.net/lists/xlm7npl?view=table
  2. Haven't entered that many in my 2 years here
  3. I think I've given away quite a few
  4. Passed that milestone a while back

Hahaha... Did I?
I don't remember saying it, but I might have implied it :D
But you must admit, you do tend to be overly dramatic/serious sometimes...

:) nice rules, i like it when people make incentives for, 'lets call it 'good behaviour'

like the idea of an elite group creation by the way, "then there is my steam group mrGreen's whitelist where i give away the really good stuff - the only way to join this, is by creating a GA to a game that i decide to join, while you are on my white list...."

small sidenote. as for rule nr 1, i join wishlisted games for playing and small tiny games for card drops or plus 1 if there are no 'wishlist' takers within those groups.. but thats pretty hard to validate playing if people do the same as me... :) or does that count as not played?
just curious how you qualify those, (already own those games btw, homefront is a nice one really enjoyed playing it)

my opinion about joining a giveaway with the intention not to play it , is "bad behavior"

  1. I put most of my wins in my backlog, but unfortunately they get buried from time to time. It's an ongoing process that I'm always working on.
  2. I've been here for almost 2 years and I haven't entered that many.
  3. I think I give AA games away frequently.
  4. I'm level 4, but as I'm trying to do more giveaways on a frequent basis, I should be at 5 in no time.

Thank you for your consideration, Happy Holidays!

should i have said, AAA games (not bundled) ?

Yea, AA and AAA games can both be bundled, so those are certainly in a different category.

so what would be a better way to get my point over ??

for example, instead of given away any AA game in the last 6 months, given away any game over 35P in the last 6 months ?

Well, I believe AA games are usually thought to be Indie games with high production values, big studioโ€™s side projects, or something like that. These games, like any other game, can be bundled at any point.

If you are specifically look for games that havenโ€™t been bundled, then you should say you are looking for folks that have given away โ€œunbundledโ€ games. AA and AAA could mean anything.

What are AA titles really?
Like I know they used to be called A list titles, but then the major studios wanted to seperate themselves from the pack, so they invented the AA titles. And now we have the big-buget/blockbuster AAA titles.
And in the future we'll probably have AAAAA or AAA++ titles, to show us how much better than the rest they are.

But what are considered AA titles (as opposed to AAA titles) at the moment?

  1. Since some time ago, I enter only for the games I'm interested in. And although it's not that often that I actually finish them, even if I actually bought the game myself, I like to think that I at least tried.
  2. Entered just over 12k per year on average.
  3. My giveaway history is inconsistent, but I do try to give away both bundled and unbundled games, triple A and indie ones, region restricted and ROW keys.
  4. Over level 5 since February 15, 2016 :)

I'm not sure what is considered AA, but I should qualify in general.

Dear mrGreen, here's my resume. Do I qualify? If so, should I show up to the office every morning at 8.00 am sharp?

  1. I'm trying to finish to play every SG wins I got in my list, right now I'm nearly at 70%. I often spend much more time than needed on a game only to unlock every achievements (but it depends on how much the game hits me).
  2. I entered 6200 and counting GAs during the year and an half I'm here on SG, so I should be under that threshold. XD
  3. I usually create giveaways for AA titles, but mainly for the groups I'm in.
  4. Lvl 9 atm
  5. "I'm awesome!" "You're in my wishlist, why am I not in yours?" Btw, have I ever told you I definitely don't copy other people's idea. ๐Ÿ˜†
  6. I just noticed I sent exactly 666 gifts on SG. You sure you don't wanna accept me? ๐Ÿ˜ˆ
  7. I love to add useless points to a list and that's my greatest talent. ๐Ÿ˜Ž

Almost right! I didn't came in because of homefront revolution, no, but rage -and admittedly- odyssey did seemed promising.
Anyways, I'm not lv5 yet and I don't think I'd be for the foreseeable future, I'm close but not quite there yet.

Also, I'm not quite sure what you qualify as AA game; I've only heard about AAA ones. (and for those spanish-speakers, "BBB" which means Bueno, Bonito, Barato :P)
I'm playing my wins, but I've started from first to last, including achievements. Again, not quite there yet. (if you search you'll find me in Playing Appreciated, BLAEO (veeery recent) and comments in other groups where I didn't made the cut or just stopped by to say hi.

Think this was also my 1st time in one of your topics, either that or my memory sucks XD
Alright, think that's it for me. Good luck to those who got Greenlight :) and thanks mr Chuck Green for reading. if you have, not if you didn't!

  • I've not gotten to all of them yet, but I have every intention to complete all my wins. They go in a category named !SteamGifts near the top of my library until I complete them 100%.
  • Most of what I give is quality I'd hope someone will play
  • I lurk the discussions at least every other day,
  • I'm five, and a half!

Let's see if I qaualify...

  1. I didn't play all my wins but I always finish every game I play. And I'm trying to play only won games. In december I finished 5 my wins. Generally i played and finished ~18% of my wins. I am a regular member of "play a game you won on Steamgifts"
  2. 68 months here and 45,5k entries - 666 entries/month
  3. I always try to give something nice from time to time, especially for all kind of events.
  4. I'm on level 10

I don't really know if I could join, but I'll try :)

1) I play some of my wins, not all, because there are a lot of games, but, little by little :)
2) My average entries are 14.000/year
3) I have gived away 819 full value games. I don't know if AA or not, but of course, non-bundled
4) Level 8 since some time ago, so here no problem :)

You are already on my WL, since three days ago, nice, I didn't remember it :P
Anyway, if not, have a bump ^_^

then there is my steam group mrGreen's whitelist where i give away the really good stuff - the only way to join this, is by creating a GA to a game that i decide to join, while you are on my white list....

Good luck with that. ;P

1) I have to admit that I haven't played every game that I won so far. I also haven't played really good games like Mad Max or Tomb Raider yet, but a few months ago I started clearing my backlog and trying to 100 % the games that I won (though some games make it really difficult) out of respect to the generous people that give away games to total strangers. I am making good progress so far!
2) Well, apparently I have been on this site for 3 years and I haven't entered 15.000 giveaways yet.
3) Check - I did give away some AA games in the past 6 months.
4) I am Level 8, so check
5) Ok, now comes the trickiest part. Why should I deserve it to be on your whitelist? I do appreciate every game that I win, no matter if it's a cheap bundle game or an expensive AAA title, so I don't join giveaways for that +1 on my steam library, but to rather play them for real and enjoy my time doing so. When I was new to the site I was kind of a leech, I joined a lot of giveaways and didn't play and appreciate them, but this has changed since then. Any games that I win are in good hands and will be played and appreciated.

Why would I deserve to be on your list?
Because I'm winning games here to play them.๐Ÿ™„
I'm not really picky on joining games (and thus have 47k entered in 6years) because I do really like almost everything and I love playing small indie games as much as AAA games (and even like to test the "trash" that's thrown onto steam the past couple years, because even there you sometimes find neat gems).

Apart from the last two months I've nearly played all my games, but starting in november I wasn't home and had no access to a PC that would run games so I've fallen a bit behind. :(
But hopefully that changes once the holidays/new year starts^^

No idea what you exactly mean by AA-titles, but I think there should be something in the past 6 months there that meets this criteria.^^

Oh and I have both Rage and Homefront: The Revolution wishlisted and really want to play them once I get them...๐Ÿ˜

1) I try to play the games i win here and only enter giveaways for those I am interested in
2) In my 4 years on this site I entered less than 20k giveaways
3) I giveaway non bundled giveaways once in a while
4) I am level 6 so this shouldn't be a problem

Saw this on the discussions and thought I would try my luck here. Thank you for being a giving member of this community!
