ted in myself.

Disclaimer: This is meant to be a "just for giggles" thread. It is not meant to attack anyone on Steam Gifts, nor is it meant to offend anyone. If any of the above two happen, I apologize in advance as it is not my intention. Most people will probably fall under the negative sections (because in reality, there's where everyone is at), so don't feel bad. We're all with you!

While coming up with an idea for Christmas, I have discovered that I am an atrocious dreadful winner.

Of the 97 games that I won:
I have launched or farmed: 85
I have tried (played for a bit then gave up): 44
I have played (I actually gave it some honest effort instead of playing the first level or first section and stopping): 27
I have completed (Completed, but not 100% achievements): 17
I have 100%'d (Includes games without achievements): 13

Only 17% of games completed and 27% of games played Atrocious Dreadful. What are your stats? (If you're not too embarassed to share them, of course.)

To the creators of giveaways that I have won: Don't you worry. I have every intention of completing every win. #NoGameLeftBehind.

Part of the reason I forced myself to create all these giveaways was so that I be more aware of how much people have spent on me, and how many games I haven't played yet. And of course, it was Christmas, so I decided to splurge a bit for you guys.

Here is the damage:
Total bundled CV won gifts: 659
Total non-bundled CV of won gifts: 799
Total bundled CV of holiday giveaways: 951
Total non-bundled CV of holiday giveaways: 803
Total giveaways: 173
Total spent on non-bundled giveaways: 209.17

My original budget? $100. I ended up spending way more than that. But I was commited. My wallet took a huge hit, even though I tried to be as cheap as possible by picking the cheaper (but still awesome) games.

Like a few others before me (RIP xScreamx. dkny, coezo, and a few others I can't think of off the top of my head), I have decided I need to tone down the Steam Gifts and focus more on completing the games I have won. My conscience has gotten the better of me, and lately I've been intentionally skipping on some pretty nice giveaways. I've reached a point where I feel like I don't need anymore games, because I know my backlog may never be finished (but I'm still going to keep trying).

Don't worry, I'm still going to be around the forums. Maybe not as much as I used to, but still enough for you to get annoyed at me since I'm on Steam Gifts almost all the time. :)

I strongly encourage you to also take some time and look at your wins. Remember, people spent that money on you, so please play your wins as time permits and don't let the games go to waste.

Thank you for listening. :)
Here's a bunch of recent bundles which I ended up not using for the Christmas giveaways. Nothing special. Don't get your hopes up.

All giveaways are level 4+, invite only, and end on 08 Jan 2016.
