My last non-bundle GA just ended 4h ago, so cannot say yet if winner will like it or not ;p It was a group-giveaway for Can't Stop Laughing Bundle.
Previous one was forum hidden private GA and gave me few laughts when I was posting it in F5 event and it ended 2 weeks ago. At least 9 people found it, and of them 4 entered it (GA had a CV requirement, so I guess quite a few ppl just left without saying a word when they've seen it's contributor GA).

2 weeks ago I gave away the first Lego Batman game and was happy with the happiness that stemmed from it :D
The winner was really awesome too. He invited me and some others he had won games from for a private giveaway as thanks. Really stand up guy that Bloosh is :D
I've got some more giveaways coming soon for my 100th giveaway. Not sure how i'm gonna handle that yet though. :D

My last giveaway was 3 weeks ago and the game was Prototype.
I was pretty satisfied with it, and the person who won seemed happy as he wanted to try the game. :)
I do want to put up another giveaway but don't know what game to put. :3

Good idea, hope you can encourage some people with extra goodies in their inventory to find them a good home! :)
Last non-bundled giveaway was hmm, last week I think. Didn't expect many entries since it was one of those group giveaways. Always have plans to make some puzzle giveaways, but haven't found any good ideas yet. Well, ok I have had some ideas but they would require too much effort on my part so I'm hoping to think of something easier... :)
I try not to check up on giveaway winners any more - it can be discouraging to give away a game you love, and months later you see the lucky winner couldn't be bothered even to install it... :)
Occasionally I get curious and discover someone's won scores of games, and never playesd a single one. :)

A month ago, State of Decay and EYE. Not as many people entered as I hoped, but it was a puzzle GA, so... meh. The winners seemed politely grateful, which I personally consider totally sufficient.
Planning on doing a GA next month, not even sure why, considering that only half of my games given away were ever played. Reciprocal altruism, I guess :D

I haven't done a non-group non-bundled one in a while, might have to fix that soon. I have a couple of group ones open now and the last successful one finished 2 or 3 days back.
It went ok, got about as many entries as I expected - it's a group where about half the people enter for every giveaway and 14/30 entered. Gift was accepted and marked as received in timely fashion.

The last non bundled one i made was some months ago..quite a long time. Time to change that. :)

Right now. Unless that doesn't count. If group ones don't count, then 2 weeks ago from my TL2 giveaway. :p

When was you last non-bundled giveaway, and how well did it go for you? Did you get as many entries as you'd hoped? Was the winner happy to receive his or her gift? Do you plan on creating another giveaway anytime soon?
I am hopeful that this thread will prove inspirational to those who are considering making a giveaway. It can be quite fun! D For myself, I am in the process of setting up some more giveaways, but haven't pulled the trigger, yet.
