Thanks for doing this event! It's a nice way to keep spirits up during this crisis. I'll have to see if I have any worthwhile keys lying around that I can contribute.
Just a point of clarification: the old thread won't be updated with any more giveaways, they'll all be included on this thread now?

I don't know why, but recently a lot of users have been posting links in the discussions without the / at the end of the 5 character giveaway code in the URL and it won't work that way.
Example: The first URL is https://www.steamgifts.com/giveaway/vy4ie, but it is missing the / at the end so it doesn't work when you click it. Click the link and then add the / so it looks like this: https://www.steamgifts.com/giveaway/vy4ie/
This is really annoying because it wastes a lot of time, especially when trying to move through long trains and it probably does nothing to stop bots, so I don't understand why so many people are doing it.

It's certainly not the best way of stopping bots, but at least it will stop some? I don't think you would like to click a link looking something like: https://www.steamgibs.com/disscussions/vy-nobot-4ie/ which would certainly stop bots.

But if a lot of people are using this method in the discussions, wouldn't the people making the bots realize and just adjust the bot so it copies the 5 character code after giveaway/? If I used one, I would add that option the first time I saw someone doing it because it seems like it would be such a simple fix. I would be surprised if bots didn't already do it.

REBOOT
A community-ran event:
As countries continue to wait for lockdowns to ease up and find Covid-19 to come back around a lot of us have found ourselves (hopefully) staying/stuck at home, hopefully not too bored, and more importantly, staying safe. (And a special thanks to those who can't stay home during this time, such as medical, food, and emergency services workers, etc!). This community-ran event is dedicated to letting people know that we're here for one another and helping those who are staying at home by giving away a game (for free) everyday in light of Covid-19!
This thread is a continuation of this event, giving away a game every day in light of the current situation. All these keys come from fellow community members, who've dedicated not only Steam keys, but also their time and effort to bring the community a spot of sunshine and merriment. The giveaways will be open to all viewing this thread; you simply need to follow the link (and replace the "#" with a " / " on the end of the link (this is to (hopefully) prevent bots)).
For those ever-curious souls, always inquiring into what's coming next: we have got a little fun trivia for you! Puzzles and hints will be available to give you some insights into what the games will be, or at the least narrow it down. Feel free to discuss what the games are down below! Thank you for reading this far, now you deserve to know that there's a train hidden somewhere in here...(which have now ended.) With that said, we hope you enjoy the event and wish you all the best of luck with the giveaways!
Stay safe,

P.S. WEAR YOUR MASKS. Please. Thank you.
Day 100 announcement update:
We have finally reached day 100 of the Lonely Quarantine Days giveaway event! A hundred days ago, this event was started to let people know we're here for one another in light of the current situation, and still continuing to do so today. Unfortunately, Covid19 still doesn’t want to leave us be yet, so we're going to change how this event works a bit; in the past, the helper/host needs to join in a discord server, then put the game in a spreadsheet, then make a giveaway for the assigned date. Now, you can simply create a giveaway and post a link of it in the comments in this format:
Example:
Please note that there are still guidelines in place for the games to be featured in this event. For the day assignment, you just have to look in the comments or the thread and see which days have been taken already.
We would like to thank everyone for the support, and to you, for being a responsible person who respects social distancing and always wears a mask in public. Together, we can make the world a safer place tomorrow. ^^ I would also like to personally thank the team who have helped with and contributed to this event in every step of the way, without these amazing people this event wouldn't have gone anywhere near as far as this.
It has been one long hell of a ride, thank you, and as always, stay safe,
