I started trading less than a month ago, and have had a great experience so far (barring that one incident). Now that I've reached 100 +rep on SteamTrades, I thought I'd celebrate this occasion with a little giveaway. So here it is! No. Actually I want to hold a contest event of sorts. Here are the rules:

There will be two giveaways. One for Payday: The Heist and another for Unreal Deal Pack

You may enter the contest by:

Uploading a video of your performing 25 pushups or 50 situps without pause (with your SG username visible somewhere without adding it in digitally) and post it here.
Taking a picture of your pet doing a handstand (with your SG username visible somewhere in the picture) and post it here.
Record an original song or sing along to an existing song (include your username by speaking/singing it) and post it here.
Provide a loan at Kiva and post proof of your loan (again, with your username) here.
Record a podcast episode of your own (5 minutes minimum and 30 minutes maximum) and must include your SG username) about any topic and link it here.
Write an original essay about why you want to enter (yes, please include your username). 100-1000 words and it must be in English. Please cite all your sources if applicable.

When you post in response to this thread, please include whether you want to be considered for the Payday giveaway or the Unreal giveaway. You may submit multiple entries but can only submit once per category. Contestants whose entries I like will be invited to the appropriate Steam group for the giveaway. If your entry is exceptionally good, you may be invited to both groups and giveaways!

The event has ended. Thank you for participating and congratulations to the winners!

I think I won't take any part in this, after reading the first optional task I'm pretty sure OP wants to kill me.

I can't really do any of these things, except for the Kiva loan, but I'm not sure if I can trust that website.

Same here, don't think my dog is a fan of handstands xD

Can we film the event rather than take a picture? It'll be a lot easier with an unruly dog :P

A critical analysis on why DrSpychology should be allowed to enter Mew’s lovely PAYDAY™ The Heist giveaway

Besides the fact that DrSpychology is clearly a doctor and thus very trustworthy (source: telegraph.co.uk), this game will go to a good cause.

A good cause, you say? How so?

The game that Mew is giving away, PAYDAY™ The Heist, is a hyper-realistic bank-heisting simulator. I will train using this utility, so that I can heist a bank in Monaco. This might seem like a bad thing for me to do, until you realize where the money is going to. I will donate all the money I heisted to a number of good causes, including, but not limited to Child’s Play Charity, Charity Water and Kiva.

But how can we trust you on this?

I cannot provide you with evidence of my trustworthiness, but think about this. You have the chance of providing millions upon millions of Euros to a good cause and this isn’t a Euro Millions kind of chance, it’s a coin toss kind of chance. All it will take to make the heist a possibility, is to kick start my bank robbing career with a giveaway of PAYDAY™ The Heist.

Won’t I become an accomplice by providing you the training you need to rob a bank?

You will be an accomplice, but is it really such a bad thing to be an accomplice to a man who will provide millions of Euros to charity? I do not think so, and since the heist will be done completely non violent, there won’t be any blood on your hands.

Sorry, this is terrible, but this is the best I could do. I've been clearly beaten by Verksies, but I hope I will still be considered for this lovely giveaway

I thought about 25 pushups, but the thought of filming gave me a headache.
Here's a Kiva loan, instead! (I'd like to be considered for the Unreal Deal Pack, please)

Since nobody has done it yet, i'll try to go for the 50 situps, and why it'll give me extra chance to win? 'Cause haha it's funny cus he's fat!
