Description

Lucky hour?
This is a chance for those who do not have either one of these games.

Please don't enter if you've ever won a game on Steam Gifts. Although I can't technically stop you, I want this giveaway to be for the people who haven't won anything yet! Thanks.

Please also do not enter if you already own ANY one of these games, as I will be checking profiles at the end.

Again, if you own even one of these games (Bioshock OR Bioshock 2), you are NOT eligible for the Franchise pack consisting of both games!

It is against the rules to enter for a game you already own, so please be fair and do not enter so that people who haven't actually won anything can get something. Tough luck if you enter knowingly breaking these rules and you are suspended from Steam Gifts, as I will report people who do so.

Good luck! :)


Some Afterthoughts

Out of 289 entries, only 40 entries were made by users with 0 wins. That is roughly 86.16% of the users entering who I assume
a) can not or do not read giveaway descriptions before entering.
b) do not respect the wishes of the giveaway creator upon entry.
c) do not have a strong sense of morality with regards to one's self.
d) have a very strong sense of morality with regards to one's self but still feel morally justified, where the chances at winning free games outweigh any guilt they may feel for entering.

Above all, no one here is a bad person. These are simply decisions made by individuals who have been through different experiences, and they may be in a situation different to everyone else's, with factors that have influenced the choices they've made.

And thanks also to those who did not comment here and still followed my rules.
Although I can't reward you for it, you have my gratitude. You are very honest and humble people. You know who you are! :)

I just have a little bit of advice for those people unsure of what to do when faced with situations like this:
Whatever you do in life, whether it's something as trivial as entering a Steam Gifts giveaway contest, or making the biggest decision of your life: don't make decisions based on what everyone else is doing. You have to make a conscious choice by yourself, and then follow through with the consequences. Don't waste time trying to convince yourself of something you've already made your mind on, looking for any excuse you can use to justify your actions. Just think carefully, do it, and then follow through. Also, a little bit of generosity every now and then wouldn't hurt. You'll find that a lot of things in life come more easily to you if you put others first. :)

Thanks for participating! I hope the Steam Gifts community gets better over time. :)

I respect your wishes and do not enter as I have already won a game on SG. Thank you for the giveaway and good luck to the others!

People can't get banned if they enter and they've won something, unless you talked to a admin to get that rule done.

No they can't, but it CAN get you suspended if you win something which you already own. I apologize for the wording, and to make it clear it is only MY WISH that if you've already won something please do not enter. Although if you (anyone in general) want to be a dick about it, and feel good about winning something not intended for you, then please, be my honourable guest. :)

Thank you to everyone who's respecting my wishes!

For a pack like this they would have to own BOTH Bioshock 1 and 2 to be breaking the rules. It's the same as entering a GotY giveaway when you only have the base game.

Ahh, I didn't know that. This should be more clear in the FAQ.
But it wouldn't make sense to gift the collection to someone who already owns one of the two games.

I'll respect your conditions. I don't have any of these games, but I did win a few giveaways. On behalf of many participants, thank you for being so generous. Good luck to all who enter!

Aw, I want to enter, but I'm too nice.

Unfortunately, I just know it will go to 3 people who have won.

I checked 3 random persons in the entries, all of them have already won.
A reroll is coming!

He CAN'T reroll. He can't enforce rules unless it is private and a mod allows the rule before creation. This has neither.

So that's stupid. What if he refuses to give the games to the winners who would already have won?

If he refuses to give the game for that reason, he will not be able to reroll, and it would only end in a Not Received for him. Which sucks, but those are the rules here. Special conditions in giveaways require moderator approval and a Private giveaway.

The only thing he can reroll for is if the winner already owns one of the two, though they won't be suspended. That being rerolled is up to the creator, mods would allow it.

They mark as not received and this guy takes a hit to his rep.

You should have made it a private giveaway if you wanted to enforce rules.

Yes, but some people don't visit the forums. As I've stated, even if I wanted to, there is no way I could enforce these rules.

Kudos for giving out a cool gift - I don't have both of them but won something from SG before so I will skip this one as you requested =)
