Oh wow, that's a pretty cool experiment! I'd like to see one done on the corresponding levels. That'd be interesting. I MIGHT DO THAT SO NO STEALING MY IDEA! :P
Bump.

On a serious note though, to echo HBNayr, I'd also be willing to make some giveaways too for the level idea if you ever wanted to do that. :)

i believe that the quality of the game correlates the effort on the giveaway, you can see this on the SA you did, valkyria is a great game, where the cave is ok-ish.
i probably entered some GA and just clicked enter, but the GA that have games i REALLY want to play i entered, read everything and said ty, and a few ones i even discussed something.
just something to you considerate.

Removed. You were blacklisted for winning one of my giveaways and not commenting.

Sadly my similar experiments had the same results (though I haven't blacklisted anybody), 90% of the people simply don't read descriptions on public GAs... at least those who did, had some more chance to win "hidden" GAs there.
Still I'm disappointed by the low participation rate..

If you were blacklisted and you wish to be removed, leave a comment here including something orange. It can be anything, but it has to be orange because orange is the new black. :P Show me that you read and pay attention.
The experiments will now continue to some private giveaways and the results will be posted in this thread after the giveaways have ended. I hope I won't have to reach the blacklist limit. It's 1k, right? Anyway, begin your ride here. Whoever enters a giveaway and doesn't leave a comment in that specific giveaway with the specific keyword will be blacklisted.
Edit: Updated the thread with the results of the private giveaways.
