Wish I could give more for this occasion, but I presently have zero income... which makes having time to play all these games a little easier, but doesn't make it so easy to acquire more. Thankfully, bundles and SteamGifts have both been significant contributors to this milestone and to my gaming experiences. So thank you to everyone on SG!

Plus it'll be my cakeday soon (four years!), so all giveaways will end then. According to SG, that's August 13th at 10:21am (presumably my local time, but it might be server time -- in any case, giveaways will end at my local Pacific time).

I wish I felt like taking the time to make some of those wonderfully-logical puzzles I love and don't seem to find the time to solve anymore, and I wish I felt like going through all my past bundles to find which keys I haven't used yet. But unfortunately, I'm plagued by bouts of laziness. So instead, you get a smattering of giveaways -- not even a train! But they're nearly all Steam Inventory gifts -- and that makes it easier on my end! :D

Also, I think it's likely that I'll finally hit Level 7 with these giveaways. That's never really been a goal, but it'll be nice to jump another tier and enter a few additional giveaways that I've otherwise just watched come and go -- definitely some nice stuff from you giveaway creators at Level 7!

And so... my 3,000th game on Steam is... drumroll... Blur.
I actually picked that one up back in 2012 before it had been removed from the store and it's been sitting in my inventory ever since. I could probably get some nice amount of keys for it, but I don't trade much, and I actually wanted Blur ever since I had a lot of fun playing it on a console system at a friend's house a few weeks before I picked it up.

Finally, and without any further ado... the giveaways!...

(Whitelist and Private Groups (7 giveaways + 1 one awaiting support to add it to the giveaway list))
These may not all be the best giveaways, but they're more personal -- a better reflection of my own gaming past and present.

Whitelist + Multi-Group: Castle: Never Judge a Book by its Cover
Whitelist + Multi-Group: Puzzle Dimension
Whitelist + Multi-Group: Dungeon Siege
Whitelist + Multi-Group: SimCity 4 Deluxe Edition
Whitelist + Multi-Group: Armikrog. (the winner may have to be a little patient on this one)
Whitelist only: Life is Strange Complete Season (Episodes 1-5)
Whitelist only: Batman: Arkham Knight (ends 1wk later than the rest due to delay in its selectability on SG)
Single Group: Gunpoint Exclusive Edition

And that'll be all 28 of my giveaway slots! (And the first time I've maxed that out, I think...)

i have 1200+ games and i have no phisically time to play all of them.
And the question i make myself sometimes is ... Why i have this quantity of games, and 30 % of them i will no play them never?
i think people with 3k and up, is collection, no game and play purposes.
So congrats :) for your 3K badge.

Like smoke that kills, I think it's more of just being a bad habit. :)
And don't worry, there's still game playing involved -- umm... try not to look at my stats for those free clicker games though....

3000 games, that's quite an impressive accomplishment. Congratulations are in order, for the milestone and cakeday alike =)
I'm approaching the midpoint myself, and guessing the 3k went by in a Blur?
Thank you for celebrating with us and being a fine part of the community of course!

1k-2.5k seemed to go pretty quickly, but the last 500 felt like it took quite a while. Don't know if that's from watching that number a little closer (in the vein of "a watched pot never boils"...) or if it's my dramatically decreased availability of fundage lately. Probably a little of both. :) Post- reaching that goal though, I've been able to hold steady at 3,001 (one of the latest free games apparently counted) and avoided buying any more bundles. Humble's definitely tempting me though....

Congratulations! 4 Years is quite some time. Only been here three myself. Also you seem to hate me. Not sure what I did, but you have my sincere apology. Probably got tired of my puns! Have a bump anyway.

Sorry about that -- and no hate at all; you're actually pretty fun to have around here! :)
As a rule, I BL developer/publisher accounts who do giveaways of their own games (which is awesome!) and win some stuffs off the CV built from that. To me, it feels unfair to the rest of us plebs. ;) For others, it probably balances out with the generosity of gifts. In any case, thank you for the congrats and bump!

That's perfectly fine! Funny thing is, I don't even get CV for P2 anymore after that 50 pack (which I gave away before I even was a Dev! lol,) I gave away the PIII (which built the CV up a fair bit) out of pocket because people kept adding me/commenting requesting giveaways of that. Akella controls that game (That's why we don't even advertise it exists and usually trash talk it when we mention it). P1 gives no CV due to being given away free on GMG (or I don't think it does) either way the first few were out of pocket anyway and both P1 and P2 are bundled anyway). PL, yep, that gave some and those were promotional! Either way! I accept my place and give another bump. Since you have a very sound reason, I won't counter list. You are free to enter mine.
