Group has now been closed

It was an interesting journey and I wish to thank all who made it possible: Contributors who generously gave gifts to the unlucky, community for its support & kind words and lastly support members who endured our way too many reroll tickets.

You have my gratitude.

For those that still remain unlucky: There exists few unlucky groups. One could try applying in them. I also recommend visiting forum often for puzzles and hidden giveaways.

Finally some statistics:

  • Founded 15th August 2012. Closed 13th May 2013.
  • Sent over 313 invites (for cherry position). Small number of them were rejected for various reasons.
  • Out of those unlucky cherries, 270 won a game either in group or outside it. Fastest wins inside group were within few hours after joining. Some people won during the application process itself (waiting to get invited).
  • Stats of cherries at the time of invite. Average number of wins: 0.27 (DLCs, betas, soundtracks, public giveaways with 100% chance to win and in the beginning also developer giveaways). Average number of entries: 1013. Average member time: 5.3 months (actually higher as many members were older than year but it only showed as 12 months).
  • Highest number of entries for cherry when invited: 3065 (had zero wins too).
  • Group had 110 poppers. Some never made a giveaway but that was not mandatory.
  • There were 276 giveaways (counting only group giveaways i.e. no private ones), some of them had more than one gift. 63 giveaways ended without any entries. Range was broad: from Fortix to Bioshock Infinite. Lowest chance of winning was 1/56 and highest was 1 (multiple cases).

I ask you to reconsider it, please. Sure, I won a game already, but it was on a Private giveaway with only 57 entries. I have over 2000 entries, so that single win is ATM (2038 entries) only 0,00049% of my total entries. I have been on SteamGifts for 2 months, and I also have a perfect entries/comments ratio. Thanks for your time.

I understand that your case (and similar ones) falls just outside of current set of rules. In certain light, you are more unlucky than some of those that are accepted. However, if we would start allowing people with full wins to join, it would open quite big flood gates and make definition of unlucky even harder. How long or how many entries since last win would be enough? Is number of wins irrevelant if last win is long time ago? Should value of win be taken into account?

Current rules are thus kept as they are. Hopefully you got some of the magic dust and could enjoy a win soon.

I won a mass giveaway of Faerie Solitaire.. (Almost impossible to lose there was 25k copies.) I don't know if that counts as a full game. :s

Minimum required time from registration is at least one month, not one day. One cannot be considered unlucky if one has not tried luck first.

I know you must be bogged down in requests, but I put up another request to be a cherry a couple of days ago... and in case that doesn't go through, here's this:

I apply for cherry.

I'm hoping to hear a reply before I leave for christmas break, since I'll be stuck without internet access for three weeks, and doing the initiation process before I leave would help me out greatly. I apologize if I have been annoying throughout this request, and thanks in advance!

It is good to be active as it increases your chances to win e.g. forums have plenty of high chance giveaway in form of puzzle and hidden giveaways. Minimum requirements are to prevent group getting flooded with members as much as defining what at least is required to be considered to be unlucky.

Greetings double-oh-seven. Your current task is to find the hidden password and to provide it to the contact person. Doing this grants you access to the club where your main mission begins.
