(English is not my native language) I thought it is a common sense to be there for friends who need to talk, or to make small thing for your SO, hold the door for people behind you etc...But I will be trying to be even more nice :)) Still very good idea, bump ^^

Pay it Forward
I've been kicking around a thought in my head for quite a while now, and here's the end result. Before you, is a table of GA's. Trains are overrated. So much clicking, and you never know what you're getting yourself into. I'mma bring the table into the mainstream for the benefit of all I tell you what
For each GA you enter, you will commit to a week of small generosities. That is, a minimum of once a day, you will go out of your way to help somebody else. It doesn't have to cost much, nor involve much effort or time. You could buy the coffee for the person behind you in line, bring home flowers for your significant other for no particular reason, or just be there to talk when somebody is down, particularly if you might not have otherwise. I ask that you fully commit to these tasks. Go ahead and mark it on your calendar, don't push it to the back of your mind, particularly if you're the type to say "I do that already", even if you do. There's always that little bit extra you could be doing. With luck, a small act of kindness can propagate forward, and with enough of them, can change the world. Be what changed the world. Tell nobody you don't have to that you did these things. Humility is an attribute there is far too little of in this world.
For each GA you WIN, I'm asking that you pay it forward in two occasions/two people in some relatively significant fashion. Helping for a day at your local food shelter, choose to be late for work and assist the stranded motorist by the highway instead or driving by, whatever floats your boat. Instead of taking any reward for these actions yourself should they be offered, instead insist that the receiver then pay it forward to somebody else instead, at their own time and ability.
Now, I know, there are some of you thinking "but the Guidelines says
I know. I obviously have no way of checking whether an entrant has completed these tasks, nor do I have any desire to. I will send the keys no matter what, nor will I blacklist them upon somehow discovering they completed nothing.
If somebody else wishes to post their own GA as you guys are wont to do. It's not expected however, I will update my table once a week. I will close the thread when my last GA ends, unless others have been added. After all, we are never alone
Big Batch GA's sent. Re-rolls incoming shortly.
