So, where did everyone go?

Closed

Is today just a weird day or did people really leave the site for good after the Contribution Value change?

No one seems to join giveaways anymore, especially contributor giveaways. Where there THAT many abusers in the community?

Also, my first Thread here, i thought i should make a worthless one like everyone else does :)

Nope, do i sound like that? I'm just curios.
I think this is the best thing that could have happened to the site.

Most of the giveaways right now are bundle keys / the ship / nuclear dawn. If you notice those games get 100/200 entries while others have alot more

I think it's too soon to make any conclusions about the effect of the change.

I did, one of the reason i'm asking.. that one had like 600 entries right? A few days ago that would have been at least twice as many.

More chances for everyone. Why do you complain? Less jerks and abusers.

He's not complaining.. he's just curious and asking. I'm sure everyone is happy about less jerks and abusers... well except the jerks and the abusers of course :P.

Well, it's not that few for me but I also observed that people who didn't met the requirements after the Great Purge were still in this giveaway... In my opinion there's at least a week to wait for results and see (when most of ongoing giveaways right now will end).

I asked about that in the first "we're thinking of changing things" thread, and the response I got (I think from jade) was basically... the system won't auto-remove people who retroactively don't qualify, points will not be returned (unless you remove yourself normally), and if you win but don't meet the requirements... reroll, unless the gifter is understanding and lets it slide.

This is likely to be the most dramatic readjustment unless the contributor system gets a major overhaul again, so it's only going to affect a reasonably small number of contributor giveaways over the long run.

Contributor giveaways have less entries because a shit load of people got dropped in value.

I get the opposite impression. Yesterday I got barely any points...Today, after the new system was up, points are flowing too fast to spend :)

I'm not sure what you're talking about.

I gave away one of those "cheap games everyone already has" in celebration of bundle keys being allowed, and got over 500 entries in a 12-hour period.

If no one entered the giveaways, I would win them.
I just know that when I get my first free "game", It's going to be a DLC or something and I won't get anything else 'till 1000 more entries :I

Don't enter things you wouldn't want to win..

It's not "no one" but the numbers are quite low, when it comes to public giveaways, the last 24 hours have probably been the best in the whole month.. if you didn't want to win Shadowgrounds that is.

I'm not entering anything except Fortix and Magic Crystals since my backlog looks menacing.
