Why do you create CV and private giveaways?

Barmp for funny puzzle.

Private Giveaways allow you to limit the field to make the chances better. Same with Group GA... as for CV. If you set CV to $30.01 in order to enter you had to have given away at least 1 non bundled game...this keeps the leechers out.

CV giveaways are made to thank those who are contributing to the site. When I'm giving away steam keys, I'm almost always using CV to weed out those who don't understand how the site works.

Private giveaways, usually, are meant to reward those who are active in the community and at least spend some time in the forums.

Group giveaways are done either as requirements from various groups, or simply to share with a specific group of people.

Not giving my hard earned money to leeches, simple as that.

I add CV's to my giveaways because I like to reward those who have also contributed to the site and avoid rewarding leechers who contribute little to nothing and try to win free games. At least that's the way I look at it.

I like private (and group) giveaways because I have control (or knowledge) of who can enter and although I don't want anyone to feel obligated to play the games I give away, I do want the people who want to play a certain game I'm giving away to be the ones who win, the best way to do that is to be selective in who I invite to a giveaway.

cv..I only do public giveaways now in lieu of CV, I wish the CV system would be removed, personally.

Why elitism ofc! We are just better than everyone! Or is it?

I guess this says a lot about my thoughts on it... http://www.steamgifts.com/giveaway/gFTUS

Guys, how do I make a clicky, I forgot?!

At the moment, I only created 2 giveaways, but I like CV giveaways because, like many said, the winner knows the rules and create a bundle giveaway costs nothing. And I like private giveaways because puzzles are entertaining to solve and people in the forum are nice. Thank you, puzzle makers !

I enjoy puzzles and stuff but have never made one with fear it would be too easy or way too hard. I sometimes put the 30.01 cv on my non-bundle giveaways to avoid the people that don't understand how the site works. Everytime I give a cd key I worry the person will tell me the key didn't work to try to get two copies out of me.

Better odds. What do you want? A GA with 2000 people entering, or 200?

I don't normally do CV giveaways, but I just do Private giveaways cause I like giving to the people in the forum. I used to do Public Giveaways, but I stopped after several unpleasant winners.

my "check" box isnt working... too bad =/

i've not made many GA yet, but i prefer to ask for a low CV so that only ppl who have given something back to the community get rewarded
