11/01/2013 - Currently running simultaneous consolation event

Hopefully you'll read the first line at least, so know that we no longer take new members, there will be a new topic for our next event's recruitement.

Our first event was a success, and here are some numbers that prove it:

  • 87 members
  • 170+ simultaneous ending quality giveaways (list)
  • 68 members got at least one win (some got 6 simultaneous wins!) (stats)
  • Highest entries giveaway had 74 entries, lowest was with just 2. (stats)

For those 19 that won nothing, we have created a consolation group (which was one of the winner's idea btw) were they get a second chance on more simultaneous ending giveaways (list)

Yes there were some small issues during the process, but I'm certain that the majority of our members enjoyed the event. Thus, there will be another event some time in the future (probably close to a Steam grand Sale). This topic will soon be closed and a new one will be created when it's time to invite those interested. Please don't ask for invites yet.


14/12/2012 - We are live

Aaaand we are live. Please post if you want an invite but make sure you read the following text and group's rules carefully. Viva la synchronization! :P

A bunch of invites have been sent. I may have missed some, either on purpose or by accident. So please reply to your comments if you still want an invite and I haven't contacted you. It's one man's job so be patient.

There are already some quality giveaways created. Here is a teaser. :)

There is a requirement of 150$ contribution value, but if you are close to that and still want to join please state what giveaway you plan to make and we may consider your entry ;)


13/12/2012 - The Idea

Hello SteamGifts forumers, I'd like to share my idea of a group with you and if you like it, then this group will go live.

So the ambitious plan for this group is to have quality giveaways that all end at the same time. Here are some details:

  • No giveaways of bundle listed or exploited games are allowed.
  • All giveaways must end at a specific time (1/1/2013 0:00 UTC/GMT). Check here for your location's time
  • There should be no giveaways of the same game created more than once (multiple copies in a giveaway are ok), so people can't win the same game twice.
  • Every member must create a giveaway until 29th of December 23:59 or they will be kicked from the group and giveaways they may win, will be re-rolled.

This way you may win 3-4 different games at once or win none at all. I have already created the group, but I'll start inviting people only after I see there are people interested in participating. Wouldn't want to end up with a 5 member group. You can check more details about the group here:

So what do you think?

We have reached 74 members and 89 quality giveaways (more are on their way).

This bump is just for active contributors of this community so please don't bother asking for an invite if you haven't read the rules and are really sure you can follow up and contribute :)

I'd really expect from a 1k contributor to have something more than a game included in a 7,5$ Amazon Bundle to contribute to such a group :P

Anyway, welcome aboard, you fit the profile after all ;)

You can always make more than one giveaways, even though we don't force anyone to do that. ;)

Members should primarily follow the rules. The idea is to have quality giveaways that end at the same time. I am glad that this group is doing so great and I appreciate the fact that our members have created (and will probably create more) quality giveaways. I don't have the word "quality" in bold but all of us know what quality should be.

This is not a lecture to you personally, I just grabbed the chance to say that. Viva la synchronization!

I wouldn't mind an invite; haven't joined any of these holiday giveaway groups yet - this one seems pretty good! I also already know a bunch of the users in it :)

Will pick up something during steam sales, and will post up a Haunted: Hell's Reach giveaway as I don't see many of those, and it seems to be a fun little co-op game (social gameplay for during the holiday seasons! :3) that people pretty much pounced on when I made 2 of them before :)

Hook me up. I have been a good contributor to a bunch of groups. I can add Ship Simulator Extremes, Victoria II, Bioshock ... I'll work with you to ensure it's a game that hasn't been posted yet.

And regarding the $150 contribution level, I'll exceed that in about 24 hours. Two giveaways valued at $60 will be ending by then.

Still interested. Just checked spreadsheet. I can see most of those proposed are listed, with the exception of Ship Simulator Extremes. Also have a giftable copy of Kung-Fu Warriors (not bundle key version) or Starscape, which is a cool little game that I don't think has been gifted before on Steamgifts.
Anyway, happy to chat with you to discuss.

Great idea! May I join this group? I don't have the necessary contributor value yet. Look at my inventory and see if there's something interesting for you. Even if I'm not accepted, have fun!
