The OG behind this event is Xarlor who came up with the first community train .
it was done again by UserCar007 with some changes that i have decided to keep. which were disallowing DLCs and adding a game value requirement .The Third one was done by me .And I was greatly helped by Canis and icaio.There was a 4th one byDragoZeroNova. 5th was again done by yours truly with the help of Canis and icaio. The 6TH also by me. and the 7TH by yours truly, Arwiee , The 8th and The 9th by me.

RULES !!

  • do not delete your GA comments after making them. this is to allow people on your blacklist to give you the link to the next GA even though they cant join your GA.
  • DO NOT HARASS/INSULT PEOPLE ON THE TRAIN FOR ANY REASON!
  • Must Start on August 29 (your time) on the earliest
    *The GA cant start in the future when you try to link it to the Train.
  • Must end sometime on September 28 (again , your time)
  • No region restrictions.
  • Set to "Invite Only"
  • Game value 5P or more
  • No DLCs
  • Set Contributor Level no higher than 4
  • Post URL in the comments of the last cart in the train.
  • If there is already a link for another cart in the comments of the last cart, wait until a new cart is added.
  • Number your cart in the description.
  • In case of games that haven't been released yet and games that were just added to the SteamGifts database. they will have a 0P cost until release or the Database catches up. so the rule for those is that as long as their cost wont be lower than 5P once that happens , then the game is good. it is easy to figure out what the price range is going to be by simply look at the store page.
  • No Games that are currently being given away for free (that means at the time you make your GA)
  • just delete and remake if you make a giveaway public on accident (Mods cant change it to invite only)
  • you can always make a ticket asking for more GA slots if you need those. mods are normally happy to do that. (not the reading your ticket part)
  • incase you are blacklisted, please open the giveaway in incognito mode so that you can get the link to the next cart, since opening it in incognito will log you out.
  • Check your GA comments regularly until you get a link for the next cart. You are responsible for adding the NEXT link in your GA description to keep the train
    growing.

You can skip over sections that you're blacklisted from by using incognito mode.

  • incase you are blacklisted, please open the giveaway in incognito mode so that you can get the link to the next cart, since opening it in incognito will log you out.

You can also use the links to skip forward and go backwards but the fact still remains the spirit of the event is greatly diminished due to blacklisting. :(

Relatively, it's not the fastest start.
But, firstly, the train departed early morning, 6-10 hours earlier than usual.
Secondly, the train that had a the slowest start in history was also the longest.

Good points, havent tought from that angle. But hey size aint everything (pun not intended? im not sure lol)

Now im realizing the kinds of data the community trains could reflect, like a reflection of the community; Quality of GAs, quantity of creators, numbers of entries. What could explain the longest, could that be repeated? Is it something else like the economy, or maybe even bundles quality affecting the overall keys available... idk, just thinking out loud.

I always liked the idea of big data (not so much some practices or actual results from it) and now im realizing how SG despite being its own micro-cosmos could possibly have some interesting data- regarding steam or the industry or something. So many users, for so many years, in some way it should be reflecting some things about the gaming market in general, steam, bundles, pc gaming.

I was also pondering the data to be found in the train. Obviously more recent carts would have less entries, but accounting for that, you can see popularity of games, but also seeing prevalence of ownership for some games which should have high entries because they're good, but don't have high entries because so many community members have Humble Bundle or the like.

And why does Lego Lord of the Rings always have so few entries? I know it just was free on Prime, but that was this week.

Anyway, interesting to see how each game goes.

Oh my i never tought of that- since i dont see GAs for the games i have (and have a bad habit of making more popular titles for groups) i never knew good games would generally have less entries... makes total sense

Now that i think of it thats great actually- the likelyhood of the winner being someone who doesnt have much games or good ones increases organically...
...and so does the chances of a bot wining.Because of course we cant have only nice things

Reasons why i will probably keep doing more GAs for groups like Unlucky 7 and Playing Apreciated. But i may do some public GA of the next really good but mostly owned next key i get

Well, popular unbundled games still have crazy high entries. :D

I'd like to join Playing Appreciated, but I can't quite commit to the time frame (was it 3 months?) with all the things I need to get done. But I'm enjoying Play a Game You Won on Steamgifts. Nice community.

And given how long it took for me to get a win, I appreciate the Unlucky 7 group, and the people who gift to it. When I found it I had just gotten my 8th win. :D But a cool idea for a group.

I got my 6th and 7th win from the unlucky if im not mitaken, but kept around as gifter.

I agree with you, Playing apreciated 1 month is harsh, nowadays i rarely enter their GAs because time been increasingly scarce for me. But lots of people agree with us and theyve made a similar- called TalePlay. Basically its the same as PA but with 3 months

And why does Lego Lord of the Rings always have so few entries? I know it just was free on Prime, but that was this week.

It was given away for free on Humble many years ago. And even if you missed it, afterwards it was a very common and cheap key for years.
