I'll sit this one out, but it will be fun to see SG struggle again when all the giveaways end at the same time ;) I plan to do something small for Christmas on my own, and thus can't split my funds. And my pile of shame (won games that I've yet to beat) is big enough as it is and I'm trying to do something about that.

I didn't post before because I wasn't sure about this time. But now I am sure.
I've yet to miss any of the Simgive events.
Soooo if possible, I'd love to come back again! :3

Nope. Going to be out of the country from the 31st till the 7-8th and I can't guarantee that I'll have internet access during that time. That and finding a place to put my dog during that time is proving to be fucking expensive D:.

I would say I'm shocked but that's the reaction I kind of expected ;) I feel like I fell in neither of the most noticable categories of "above and beyond with lots of impressive GAS" or "leecher getting by with the minimum efford"...
But then again, every group need a few average people ;)

Already!?!?
Man, this year has totally been flying by. It's barely even been feeling like November, even though we're over half way through the month already. We finally got some snow here in Minnesota this week, so it's finally feeling like winter.
I missed out on the summer event because I knew I would be too busy with RL things and didn't want to use up a spot when I knew I wouldn't be able to live up to the standards set by this event and great group of people. Winter is always a slower time for me at work, so I'm definitely looking forward to participating this time around.
I'd love to join again if you'll have me!
Viva la synchronization !!

Hello again community!
Some of you may already know what this thread is for, so if you do please skip the introduction part, but read the rest:
Group Introduction
First of all you should know that this is not a new group, it was first created during Chrismas 2012 and since then we've had eight successful events:
The group's stats page can give you a glimpse of that success.
So it is obvious by the repetition pattern, that we operate close and during big Steam Sales. The goal of this group is to gather a certain amount of members that will create unique quality giveaways and share them with the rest. The tricky part is that ALL of those giveaways will end at exactly the same time, regardless of the time zone.
For that to work there are some rules to follow:
It's simpler than it looks, the hardest part is for me and the mods to organize and make sure people follow the rules.
For those that need more details, you should check on the group's profile here.
Also take a look at our Group Rules in Detail and our FAQ.

What's the group's timeline
(read this if you get to be a member of this group)
This time around I created Steam group calendar events (which still needs to be updated) but the general idea is as follows:
Group Site
Since we started this group I've been using Steam Groups and Spreadsheet to handle the proceedings. One of our members TheTimmaeh is kind enough to trying to take us to the next level of having a site to handle our event. We do our best to have it ready for this event but nothing is certain. If we do, some of our procedures might change but the mods and I will be around to guide you. Participating in our events is considered easy regarding the procedures on your behalf, but hopefully with the new site coming up, it will be made even easier.
Few last words
Our last event had 65 members and 1743 unique giveaways (average of 27 giveaways per member, which means also an average of 27 wins per member). Everyone who entered at least one giveaway won something. Almost everything went smoothly except the fact that a member was kicked for not complying with the rules, but as always I will do my best for things to go as best as possible.
tl;dr
This group is not for you
