Create a Contributor Giveaway

Puts on GLaDOS voice

cg you are doing a very good job of making this site amazing.
lokonopa...you make a good example.

The maximum number of giveaways based on your current feedback score has been reached. Once your current giveaways come to a close, and gifts are received, you'll be able to post additional gifts.

Now I have to wait for three weeks... :(

Awesome, cg! Keep up the good job :D

Not sure how to feel about this changes but sure as hell miss a lot the search giveaways filtered by group both with firefox add-on or steamgifts-mobile app...
Not very happy this time guys

Awesome indeed, congrats on getting steamgifts to where it is now.

Thanks, cg.

Interesting, thanks for the time you guys put into this. The UI changes to me are something of a drawback. It would be nice if we could choose to see only contributor, or only group giveaways at a time, like we can choose New, open and closed.
Visually, the additions are good, but I think they'd be better as additions, not a new format. I think that way, it would be more easily viewable.
Just my 2 cents.

its amazing how much the contributor giveaways cut down on entries. even if theyre as little as $1.00.

Thank you very much cg really gr8!!! :) btw did u consider my idea for spot limited giveaways here ?

Nice :D

Looking at some of the required amounts (like 59.98), it seems that some people are making the contribution limit the maximum they are allowed to. Interesting.

I would like a way to hide the contributor giveaways I'm not eligible to enter but, now that it's shown on the front page, that isn't as important.

already created 3 Xp

I like the UI updates.

I think contributor giveaways are a pretty shiny new feature, already created one. Hope to create more in the near future.
Thanks to loko and cg for all the great work you are doing for the site. :)

I approve, its a nice feature.

Love it, thanks

Could you put a filter for Contributor & Non-Contributor giveaways, please?

Great Feature!

Ohhh it's a little uncomfortable. Can you make a feature to choose to old style? I mean it's compact and more nice but... if you checking through the giveaways, you can enter the ones that contributer only accidentally.

Hello everyone,

This is probably going to be a longshot, but I might as well try anyway.

Basically, I have some concerns over the new contributor giveaways:

• For one, I'm concerned we'll begin to see a majority of contributor giveaways - and a large majority at that, something in the 80 contributor for 20 normal giveaways. If things continue this way, we'll reach 100/0 and basically there'll be no difference between a contributor giveaway and a normal one. Also, new users will have a hard time getting accepted since they'd have to give something away before entering. I'm seeing about 40/50 contributor/normal giveaways on the front page, but it might just be because it's a new feature and everybody wants to try it.
• Secondly, it seems there's apparently a limit on how much you can ask for people to enter your contributor, but I would like to make sure that's correct. I mean, I find it hard to believe I have to have given away 100$ of games to enter a 50$ game - at that point, I could have bought the game twice instead of entering a giveaway. Even needing 50$ in your account to enter a 50$ game is, I think, counterproductive.
• Third, I would love an option to filter out the contributor giveaways I can't enter.

Other than that, it's a very good addition, I just hope it doesn't create the vicious circle I described in my first point. I do have one last concern, and it's that I'm making an enormous amount of points - and by that extent, everybody does. I think I make more than 100 points per 8 hours. The problem is that I'm entering giveaways for games I don't necessarily want, so that I keep making points.

Please make a "Contributor only" everywhere! I hate freeloaders, who dont create giveaways!

So why not make it so that you can only see giveways you're eligible for?

I just noticed that when typing a game's name on the upper-right search box, the old format is used instead of the new layout. (Plus it doesn't even tells you if it's a contributor's giveaway.)

I think it's a good idea, but for some reason I think this can be exploited easily too, but I digress since I haven't contributed I don't have a say yet xD.

Nonetheless I think it is good for the people who do contribute out of free will.

very nice :)
