Hi everyone, we're testing out some pages for Steam groups. See the below as an example...

http://www.steamgifts.com/group/SJ7Bu/sgifts

The top of the page displays a few general stats for the group.

  • First Giveaway: When the first giveaway for the group was created.
  • Last Giveaway: When the last giveaway for the group ended, or if a giveaway is open.
  • Average Entries: The average number of entries for a giveaway in the group.
  • Contributors: The number of unique users that have contributed one successful gift or more to the group.
  • Winners: The number of unique users that have won a game from the group.
  • Gifts Sent: The number of gifts marked as received from the group, and the corresponding value. If a giveaway is for multiple groups, the value is divided. For example, if I created a $10 giveaway open to users of Group A or Group B, then each group page would show $5 when that gift was received.

The sidebar has four pages, giveaways, users, stats and wishlist.

  • Giveaways: As expected, this lists the giveaways available to the group. They're ordered similar to profiles, with coming soon giveaways first, then open giveaways, then closed giveaways.
  • Users: This page lists SG users that are in the group according to synced data. If a user hasn't synced in the past month, they appear faded out in the list to signify they're inactive. The table shows the gifts sent and received to the group from each user, and it's ordered by the difference between those values. Similar to above, this takes into account giveaways for multiple groups, and if I created a $10 giveaway open to users of Group A or Group B, then I would see $5 as my sent value for each group.
  • Stats: Displays a graph of giveaways created per month by the group.
  • Wishlist: You'll see a list of the top wishlisted games in the group. To improve load times, the results are estimated. The site looks at the last 500 users online in the group, finds their wishlisted games, and extrapolates the results for the entire group. For example, if a group has 5,000 users, and we see our sample group of 500 users have GTA5 wishlisted 8 times, then we assume GTA5 is on 80 wishlists for the entire group.

Hopefully this will allow groups to better manage their users. If you'd like to see any other data, let me know. You'll be able to view the above page for all of your groups in the next day or two.

Edit: Group pages are now setup. You can find the links to them on your account page. Or, if you're viewing a group giveaway, you can access the links there as well.

indeed. looks great.
can we get Real values of games..
like if X game is bundled then it's calculated as 15% right? can we have that 15% value shown in last column(if possible everywhere?) instead of it's full value?

It doesn't show members who have been inactive for more than 1 month? Not faded out, just missing completely ..

That's because we didn't resync group data for all users when updating to SGv2. So, if a user has never visited the new site, their groups have never been synced, and therefore SG doesn't recognize them as being a member of the group.

a suggestion:
is it possible to add the number of active GA at the groups main page? so i can see which groups are active.
instead of going into eveyone of the groups

That one doesn't tell you which group those GAs are for though... so looking at my 200 groups it's hard to know which have currently coing on games, etc

I like it! I love getting more stats :-D

It does remind me of the multiple open topics concerning "Show group names on main page"... which in turn reminds me of multiple other topics where people keep requesting the same feature. I'm definitely NOT going to ask you to work on what features we want, I totally accept your autonomy there, but it would be nice to get an "official word of god" on some of the requested features... A lot of those topics are just us users patting each others back for coming up with it, some with added wild speculation why it was not implemented but a definite "don't feel like it", "later", "this will slow down the server", ... would be nice :)

How can someone have 4,6 giveaways sent or 56,3 giveaways received?

Quick check shows it's multiple groups giveaways, using the same rule as for $ value
