So I was looking at my profile earlier and I saw that I can make 41 active giveaways at once. I thought that this might be a good way to get rid of some of my games from my list of 500+ keys/urls/gifts. I mean, these are games just sitting around collecting dust and waiting to be played. What better way to get rid of them than a train right?

Well that is up to you guys and it is also up to you guys how I do it as well.

A: The Free Ride Option
I do a train and start it right in this thread and anyone and everyone can hop on. This makes for a ton of entries and less of a chance of winning for everyone involved. It will be mostly bundle games and a few non-bundle games.

B: Pay For Your Tickets Please
I do a train and start it right in this thread but instead of a direct URL it starts with a puzzle. The first puzzle gets you into the first tier of games which is level 0 and bundles only. From there you will eventually hit a transfer. The transfer will be another puzzle that will get you into the next set of giveaways that will be level 2+ and be a mix of bundle and non bundle games. The final transfer will be another puzzle that will get you into the final giveaways that will be Non-bundle awesome games (No bad rats crap here people). The final giveaways will be for level 3+.

C: No Train For Me Son
I don't do a train and instead just make a random non-bundle giveaway right in this thread. There will be a puzzle to get the link though.

D: What's A Train?
You don't know or you don't care, either way you don't want a giveaway. This option makes it easy for me.

So it is time to decide our fate people! To train or not to train?

No decisions are made until there are at least 700 votes

EDIT For option B, the puzzles start easy and get progressively harder.

EDIT For option B, The 3rd Tier would consist of games like GTA V, The WItcher 3, Evolve, Dying Light, etc...

EDIT So the votes are in and free ride is the winner but I think I'm going to do it a little different. Since people were obviously interested in the other option I will be doing a little of both. More info to come soon, watch the thread for the train...

EDIT The train is rolling out! All are welcome to board but not all will make it to the final destination! This first part of the train is ready, The second part will be available soon so keep an eye on that last giveaway for a description update! Hop on the Nazty Train!

EDIT The 2nd part of the train is complete. There are a mix of bundle and non-bundle games. The contributor level required is 2+. Working on a puzzle for the final part of the train now. Part 3 = 3 AAA Titles...

EDIT The Final part of the train is complete and ready for those who can finish the puzzle. This one requires more thinking. The giveaways for the final games are open for 2 weeks.

EDIT To help spur you guys on, I will reveal one of the games for completing the final puzzle... The Witcher 3

Yes get the choo choo going! I want a free ride!
Yes let me on the Nazty Express but I'd rather pay, it makes it more exclusive!
No I hate trains, trains are for conformists...

on one hand - train with transfers sounds good - less entries, more chances to win.
on the other hand - I'm quite bad at puzzles... From any I saw on SG - I only could solve a few, and those were so easy...
How about making those lvl2 and lvl3 giveaways on the forum instead? That would limit entries as well...

Hmmm, I'm torn between puzzles and a free ride. On one hand I love puzzles... on another hand... there are some puzzles I really dislike (like "what was my favourite game when I was 12 years old?" or "what kind of smartphone do I use?" and similar) :S

Yeah, that, in my book, is called 'guessing game' and not puzzles. I dislike those too

Instead of one huge train, make a few smaller trains.
1 free train, 1 easy puzzle train, 1 hard puzzle train

I was going to suggest something sorta similar, one long train but entry level would be free for the option A people and then level 2 puzzle and then level 3 hard puzzle. You then pretty much get option A and option B all in one.

I voted for B. If I can't solve a puzzle for a triple A 60$ title then I don't deserve the chance to win it anyway.

I totally suck at puzzle. I prefer the option A with some level restriction. Anyway, thanks for your events.

Another option kind of inbetween A & B above - make a train without puzzles, but make them Level 1. That way they aren't exclusive but they block the leechers.
