Nice idea and thanks Starlynk!

<3

That's an interesting experiment. :-D Did all of them have the same duration?

(Also, thanks for the cities!)

Thank you, again! ^ ^

Thanks Starlynk! I don't understand why people don't read descriptions on giveaways. It doesn't take long, and quite often it's something interesting :)

I rarely read descriptions, so I guess you could count me out of your experiment.

I can read! :D

Went incognito with my comment in public giveaway to not to destroy an experiment but it's still not to generic. Often first comment can make people more alert I think. Let me know if I should change it cause I'm also quite interested I result of your experiment ;).

I'm glad I can read too. :) Thank you for being awesome! :-D

By the way: Did you know, that we're generally very used to learning to read and write at the same time, that it's hard for us to imagine how somebody could not learn both things at onces. It's therefore hard for us to imagine how it was in ancient cultures, where there were actually quite few people able to read to some amount but only very few able to write.
Just a random fact about being able to read for your (not so) secret GA. :)

Look at all these sexy people in this here hidden comments.

And to think, I used to say reading was overrated...jokingly of course :D

The only time I find myself skipping the description is if it appears to simply be a verbatim description of the game taken from the store page. Otherwise, I try to take the time to read what the giveaway creator has said. I know I'm always happy when people answer the questions I sometimes ask in my giveaways.

interesting experiment :)

I recognise you experiments, maybe from some discussion? I've managed to stumble upon them some other way. Anyhow, Skylines is a game I really look forward to playing, so thank you so much for the chance! Will probably only enter the "hidden" one :-)

I always knew I was special !

HIdden giveaways. Such fun!

Thats not the only thing, that i can read

View attached image.

Yay, I can read :D

Haha, nice experiment. I usually read the description. Hey, if you took the time to give a free game, I can read a few lines.
Thanks for the chance! Have a great [insert time of day here]

Thank you for this... hmmm... scientific experiment. :D

Haha thanks for another chance :)

thanks for adding this second chance to win the game! :-)

I think that higher levels are more likely to read descriptions, i tested that in a giveaway some time ago

Ha! Good thing I can read.

Ha! I've never done a private giveaway and didn't even know how they worked. (I'd see them in people's profiles but had no idea.) So you've taught me that a private giveaway just a link (I think). btw - Sim City in its various iterations is one of my favorite games of all time.

Feedback on your ratios above - it's sometimes difficult to spend my points here on steamgifts, so I'll often just fly through the listings and select a few. I'm not purposely not reading the listings, but 300 points is a lot of entries to work through.

also, out of curiosity I looked to see if I'd previously entered any of your giveaways and missed your hidden link, but it turns out this is the first giveaway from you that I've entered.
