As stated in the topic.

Don't you think it would be fair? Why should someone whose giveaways are restricted to his group of friends (and not accessible by me)be allowed to enter my open giveaways for contributors only?

A giveaway for a group is a contribution only for that group and not for steamgifts community - so it shouldn't count towards CV!

That's like saying they shouldn't get CV if they had made a 1 hour giveaway while you were asleep, since it wasn't "accessible to you". It doesn't matter whether it was accessible to you in particular, or me in particular, or anyone in particular, it juts matters that it was accessible to at least 2 Steamgifts members.

Contributor giveaways are totally and clearly flawed for that reason and because a 75% off game counts more than a new released game, let alone how the bundled games are counted... Everyone can say everything about the contributor giveaways system but that it is fair.

Just to be clear: I have created some group giveaways with a very limited number of entries and it isn't fair I have the same chance to win in a public contributor giveaway as another user with the same CV but with the 100% of public giveaways. I'm not complaining because I can't win.

If I make a crapton of non-group giveaways with CV requirements of like... $3,000, they would not be accessible by you either, so why single out groups?

You have been here four weeks and managed to win two giveaways. That is two more than many people win in twice as many giveaways. Thats a good enough reason for me to tell you to get over yourself.

It's also quite funny that you talk about CV, you've given away four bundles that cost $1.49 each and received nearly $60 in CV for them. This in itself is fine, people appreciate all giveaways but don't start telling everyone else how they should be using SG when you are using a similar system for your own benefit. Pot/Kettle/Black

This has been debated again and again. We all know the arguments. Bottom line, that particular change isn't going to happen, but SGv2 is, and we'll see how that goes.
