After going through a recent event where someone very close to me was feeling depressed and suicidal, thought I'd make some GA's to get a point across. If you are feeling this way, there is help, and people out there want to help. You're not alone and you are cared about. If you are not of this state of mind, realize that you could be the difference between them getting help, or doing the unthinkable. You will most likely never know how, who, or how many you helped, but that should make no difference. It just matters that you were there. Go and be the best you that you can be. If anyone out there needs someone, i accept all steam friend requests and will reply as soon as i see your message.

Try and keep the thread alive for a while so that more can see it. May i suggest pictures of cats? Anything really.

I'm going to attempt to update this thread once again once a week, between Friday and Sundays.

EDIT: If you choose to bump with a GA, especially a higher level, and wish for it to be featured on the active GA portion, I suggest a week or longer running length. It can sometimes be a number of days before I can edit this to add new GA's. It's also super helpful if it's in

`[Your Name Here](Profile URL)` | `[Your GA Here](Link to GA here)` | Date Ending

formatI'm switching to a table format. Not required, but it would let me update the main post more, as it currently takes a while, which means less updates.

EDIT: Total number of GA's added to thread as of last update- 1687+
Note that this is likely much higher. From pages 54-94, I assume all trains to contain only 3 games, while they are likely much higher in number.
GA log of past record

I'm no longer going to keep a detailed log of past GA's. It was simply too much work.

The following, continuously updated, users are the real VIP's of this thread. They have contributed to the development of this ever growing thread, either through exceptional giveaways, an exceptional amount of giveaways, or relentlessly bumping the topic, even when it is/was in a period of disarray, and I wanted to thank them for it, not to cheapen anybody else that has contributed, but to celebrate them for it. Treat them kindly.

I am very aware. Please read the updated first edit. Long story short, I will be detailing my absence as soon as I can, however, I currently, and for the foreseeable future, have less than half an hour of free time a day to do anything, including spending time with family, pay bills, etc, and am working over 60 hours a week with over an hour commute each way. It has not been forgotten, I do have more pressing priorities which will be explained when I can.

Certainly understandable, things taking priority over SG. Hope you're doing ok man, besides the time-crunch

No worries. I wasn't trying to harass, only leave a bump/reminder since there are so many things going on in this thread. While trying to deal with what seems to be overwhelming commitments, remember that you are not alone. Many of us have been in similar situations and have struggled through until we were finally able to reduce our commitments. Do what you've got to do.

Don't worry DesertMouse... I know firsthand those times in your life where you barely have time to eat/sleep/work... they can be stressful as hell but the good thing is that one way or another it shall pass... in the meantime we will keep on talking here and hyping this thread :P

GL with your work and other commitments ...

oh, look, a bump!

As per the OP, ...

EDIT: If you choose to bump with a GA, especially a higher level, I suggest a week or longer running length. It can sometimes be a number of days before I can edit this to add new GA's. It's also super helpful if it's in [Your-user-name-here-](URL-of-giveaway-here) format. Not required, but it would let me update the main post more, as it currently takes a while, which means less updates.

So, you want to post a message with the following format:

```
[Name of game](URL-of-giveaway-here) by Your-user-name-here
```

What is blue/green "free" next to my invite only GAs mean?

I think those are just some of your script acting up. Don't mind it, your giveaways are fine :)

Do you have any idea what it might mean?

No problem. You have Extended SG script installed, right? I have it too in my profile, the [FREE] tag. I think maybe because since it's an Invite Only giveaway, the script can't actually read the Steam API, and tagged it as free. I might be wrong but there's no problem for me so far :)

I've had a few (2 to be exact) friends in real life that were being suicidal and I've managed to talk them out of it somehow, however I've had several people tell me they are suicidal as well on steam. People I like playing with but don't really know. The people I knew IRL I could tell that people really loved them and would be sad if they left, their friends, me, their family, etc. because I KNEW it was right. However to people I don't really know on steam, I have no clue how I can help them, so I'm usually just awkwardly telling them that life is good. It seems like you guys have some experience doing this. Any tips on what I can say to them? Without stepping on their toes?

Yes, I know it is overdone to say I talked them out of it completely. Or it's much to say I did so at atll, let's just say I helped in slowing the bomb down at least :)
Furthermore, thanks for the tips :)
