What is Touhou Giveaways?

The Touhou Giveaways group was founded by Archi on February 18th 2015. We're a small, ratio-based group, sharing the spirit of giving away and winning games on SteamGifts. You might already recognize us from awesome events that we organize from time to time.

We have implemented many unique features into the simple concept of a private giveaway group, and today we are probably the most "technologically advanced" group that exists on SG. The objective is simple: the group should be a nice addition to the SteamGifts community and should require no extra effort from the member.

All group giveaways are tracked by our bot, which automatically handles everything - adding new giveaways to the database, tracking winners, calculating points and ratio, detecting current/finished giveaways, statistics, and more. We even reward members with our very own touhou achievements! Our group is fully automated, and thanks to that, our members can focus on creating and winning giveaways, instead of being forced to manually add them through the website or post links in a group thread. This way everybody is happy to make giveaways the same way as public or private ones, and ArchiBoT does everything else. We even created our own userscript which enhances further SG experience. All 2hus love it :3.

Basically you could say that the entire group is run by ArchiBoT, and humans are only helping him :3

To make the precious data gathered by the bot available for the members, we also coded our very own Touhou Giveaways website, which acts as a "frontend" to the data gathered by the bot. Members can check their stats, ongoing giveaways, giveaways won and many other useful information we provide in a nice, fancy and modern way. Hell, we even have a shop with some extra neat features.

We're always actively working on improving our group even further. Many things are being added and improved as the time goes.

Group goals

Touhou Giveaways is not a typical giveaway group that can be found on SG - we're more like our own small community of people that like spending time with each other, be it by chatting, playing or discussing SG rants threads. We actively focus on the community aspect of the group - everybody knows each other, we chat together, play together and win giveaways together. If you treat SG group as a source of games only, most likely this group is not for you.

I highly recommend joining us on the chat if you want to get more info, ask a question, or simply talk with us. Doing so will greatly increase your chances of joining, while at the same time finding out if you like our companionship or not :3. We don't force any member or candidate to stay on our chat for the entire time, but no interaction with group members apart from SG is rather discouraged and decreases your chances of joining. Show us that you care and you're really determined to join, and most likely you'll get rewarded for your effort.

Members

We're looking for members who:

• Fulfill all of our requirements (rules), that can be found on the website
