Unlucky-7

A group for people that have won 7 or less games on steamgifts.
The idea is to help boost morale and help make things a bit more fair and friendly for everyone.


Rules of application normal membership:

  1. (1a) Your steamgifts account needs to be older than 7 weeks (So 2 months and above)
    screenshot on how to check join date
    OR
    (1b) In case your account is less than 2 months old -
    you need to have 7 or more completed giveaways on steamgifts (You gave away 7 or more gifts)

  2. You need have won no more than 7 gifts on steamgifts (0-7 wins is ok, 8 or more will disqualify you).

  3. You need to have your previous wins on steamgifts activated in YOUR account (steamgifts rule).

  4. You need to activate all your wins in YOUR account (steamgifts rule).

  5. You are not a documented scammer (e.g steamrep)

Once you've won 8 gifts or more -
You need to leave the group (unless you want to stay as a gifter in which case you can't enter most group giveaways yourself).


Gifter membership

  1. Gifters create giveaways for group members.

  2. Gifters can only enter 'open to gifters' giveaways IF they have a +7 gift difference in group. screenshot check yours here

  3. Be atleast level 3 on steamgifts

  4. Have at least a give/sent ratio of 1:1 in numbers

  5. Make atleast one GA per week in case your gift difference is under +7 until you reach that mark

  6. Must keep a gift VALUE bigger than 0


Group giveaway guide - when you create a giveaway and someone wins DON'T deliver gift until:

  1. Check your winner has 7 or less wins on their profile.
    (unless it was open to gifters / multi group giveaway)
  2. Check your winner is still a group member by visiting their STEAM profile. Like this
  3. Make sure your winner has the gifts activated in their account, alot of new members don't bother reading rules.

When its time for you to leave the group:

  1. Leave all ongoing group giveaways you're a part of.
  2. Sync your steamgifts profile.

FAQs

  • How do I sync my profile?
    Like this

  • How do I check my steamgifts join date?
    Like this

  • Can I enter to win a gift for my friend / family / brother / cousin / dog / pet gerbil?
    Gifts have to be activated in your account. This is a steamgifts rule.
    If your friends want to join, have them apply here.

  • You don't have to enter all group giveaways - Remember you only have up to 8 gifts so choose wisely!
    Its actually much preferred if you only enter giveaways for games you actually want.

  • Can non gifters create giveaways for the group?
    'Normal' members can also create group giveaways for each other. Actually this is encouraged.

  • Can I join the group as both gifter as normal member?
    You can join the group as both, or become a gifter once you have won the gift quota.

  • I have more than 8 wins but not all wins are from the group, do I still have to leave?
    Yes, the win count refers to your steamgifts account, it is not group specific.

  • I have to leave the group but still have ongoing group giveaways I am part of, can I still win those?
    No, if you have to leave please exit all ongoing group giveaways you are a part of.
    We get very angry when we have to perform dozens of re-rolls on people that left / were kicked from group days ago and still "win" group giveaways.

  • I am a gifter but have less than 8 wins on steamgifts, can I enter group giveaways for normal members?
    yes, once you reach 8 or more wins you become a full 'gifter'. Until then you can enter all 'normal' group giveaways.

  • I am a gifter and want to enter 'open to gifters' giveaways. Why do I need this silly +7 gift difference rule?
    This is not a ratio group, however, we've had cases of people not understanding that 'gifter' members should be...gifting.
    So if we see a "Gifter" that won 20 gifts in group and only gave away 3 bad rats we will be angry.

Good idea to have this group?

View Results
Yes - We need more groups for new and unlucky people
No - People will find ways to scam the system / People need to just contribute more to advance in levels
Other (specify below)

I'd like to join since I have only won 3 games in almost 2 years.

A good point the, the value of games you've won as displayed on your SG profile should be less (not equal to) the value of games won. This will prevent leechers from joining.

sent. this is not a ratio group since the point is to help new people and people that can't afford alot of gifts.
I do know however, its a heaven for alt accounts and leechers, not sure how to solve this problem yet

Won't mind joining to occasionally gift, although hopefully people won't mind bundle fare. (I was once in a 'haven't won much' group and got very few entries for most giveaways. People were very picky.)

Yeah, sadly I go by the rule of thumb that if I'm not going to play it I shouldn't enter because someone ELSE could win it. Many hours have been wasted here and the only game I won had over 12k keys going at the time (5k+5k+2k), so I figured my 1 entry wouldn't hurt anything lol.

EDIT: Point of this post was I'm probably a picky one. However, had I not just purchased the current Humble Bundle I'd of totally been down for some of that. Shadowrun ftw!

Thanks for helping out. Well, I'm sure some people would still want bundle games

That made me sync. Last synced 10 September 2015. (I wonder why I synced then. Probably had a public profile for a while by mistake.)

I thought steamgifts auto-syncs every few days? Guess I was wrong.
I broke your unsync record though :P

I have a private profile. In the old SGv1 days I needed to sync every week just to be able to post, but the merciful cg took pity on my and in SGv1 syncing is only needed to enter giveaways.

hey there, awesome idea either if i won more than 7 games.
I really like the idea because i saw a lot people out there with ratio's like "100 games given away, 0 games won"

I will make myself a notice about those people and report than to this thread, maybe you can invite them then :D

Edit:
Saw the gifter status to late, do you need some more game-gifters?!
Will be a favour for me to help out whenever i can ;)
(also i'm mad about so much "leechers" won my giveaways :( )

Oh thanks for the Invation :D will start my first group GA tomorrow i think :D

leechers you mean people that won lots of gave nothing?

Yea, the people who won a lots, member since 2 years and never given away something.
Dont know the real word for them, someone called me a leecher after i won my 3th Game, since that im using this word :o
Thats why i really like your Idea about this Group, can be frustrating to see someone won so much games and there are users without a single win :o

I see you have not activated 'greyfox' win which you have gifted away in a giveaway? you re-gifted that one?

Comment has been collapsed.

yes because i dind't think that i would actually win something and my ideea was if I would win something I would gift a game myself (as seen in the gifts section at the same time I regifted that game I put a game i bought from steam , also steamgifts rules say " games should be activate" meaning it is not mandatory to activate , anyway as seen in gifts section that is the only game i did not activate)

ok.I will invite you since you were new and didn't know - however know that you need to activate all your gifts. in case you won something you didn't want - ask for a re-roll.
