If you're thinking you might create some giveaways for this train from the Jingle Jam... be aware that those keys are supposed to be redeemed by December 31, and this train doesn't end until December 31 (and then winners have 7 days to redeem).

Hi,

Thank you again for another great year of Steam Gifts

From all the awesome mods to the great people behind the new magazine and beyond

This place keeps growing from strength to strength and while not prefect it is still a place
to come and feel safe and enjoy gaming and friendship

This is where I come in again with my 3rd annual x-mas community train
(we know problems around using the word X-MAS have come up because not everybody has Christmas
but i chose to keep it the same as not to confuse people - if there is strong objection i'll change it)

Here for reference is links to the first to trains I ran:

Train 1 - https://www.steamgifts.com/discussion/IIini/community-xmas-train-feel-free-to-join-we-need-more-giveaways-to-be-able-to-continue-thanks
Train 2 - https://www.steamgifts.com/discussion/GFu5J/xmas-community-thread-train-2-happy-holidays-enjoy-the-spirit-of-giving

I show these not to brag about what happened before but to inspire and show what kind of games/dlc people included before

Now as i say this you might have seen others do trains and they show the rules of the train and carts (each giveaway linked)
and while this is more of a very super relaxed train there are still rules:

The Rules:

Rule 1 - Must be a Steam key (obvious but i thought i'd say it anyway)
Rule 2 - Level 3 maximum (to allow more people to enter but feel safe in their items going to real accounts)
Rule 3 - Must be invite only (so only people who see this thread can enter the giveaways)
Rule 4 - Important to not start you cart before the 1st of December and ends on 31st of December (anytime that day is fine) but it needs to last the month

Now that I have said this all what do I allow to be part of this train:

Everything and yes everything like the rules say as long as it is a Steam key

That means:
Free games (games given away at places like gleem)
DLC (of any kind it does not matter if you or anyone is giving away the base game)
Games currently in bundles
Games un-bundled
Your own games (as kinda a promotion)
games costing 1p to enter or 50p to enter (or even the rare 0p) or anything in-between
it doesn't matter if it gives full CV, part CV or no CV at all

Also I should say it doesn't matter for two points (which i had brought up to me in the former years trains)

1 - No it doesn't matter if someone is already giving away the game in the train - it doesn't matter if it's already given 1 time or 101 time it is ok to post
And
2 - If you have multi - copies of the same game they can be in the same giveaway or different giveaways (both are ok)

Here is the code for easy cart linking:

Cart #xxx
<<< [Previous]( "previous link" ) ||| BUMP ||| [Next]( "next link" ) >>>
"optional text by creator"

If you need help with linking just ask - also please put the number of the cart because like other years I am going to try
to do them A.S.A.P in blocks of 10 carts

oh and I didn't know where to say this but yes you can make as many carts in one go as you want or spread them out over the month (like I will be doing)

I do also know many of you participate in other Christmas events included CG'S wonderful box/present event (i also add to that) so feel free to save your best for those events and send me the junk carts (joke nothing is truly junk if somebody wants it)

I am posting this early this time so it might be included in to the SG magazine and to let people know to save up giveaways to be able to take part

Thanks and please ask any questions you might have

I will be taking the first cart and any that start before December 1st or end before 31st December (of course i ll take in to count time zones) or are high than level 3 will NOT be allowed (sorry)

All are welcome to join and please remember to have fun and if you can't or don't want to add any carts a bump is also needed to let more people know about this and (I know this is a lol coming from myself) please, please, please enter some giveaways this only works if carts get people ride on them

Thanks again and let's make the train and 2024 - even better

Please and this is important do NOT make fun or bully anyone for the carts they choose to add/donate to the train (if this is found I will de -link your carts and black list you)
This is to be friendly event for the season of giving

Here is cart 1 - https://www.steamgifts.com/giveaway/Fi53g/

Thanks to all contributors and to Wigglenose for the organization, we reached 1000!
Also sorry to my winners because due to an unplanned trip I only sent a small fraction of my keys yesterday. I'll try to send the rest tonight or tomorrow morning. Thanks for your patience.
