There area ton of users on SteamGifts. A lot of people are here to win free stuff, some people are here to give and get, and very few people just want to give. If asked the question of which group you are in, I bet most people would claim to be givers for the most part.

So the question is what kind of SG user are you? Will you answer truthfully or just live the lie?

Alien Isolation Giveaway if we hit 500 votes. Check my inventory and gaze upon its greatness.

EDIT Don't get upset at the poll choices, They are represented in more of a comical manner for certain options. Yes there are more categories that I didn't list and more specific users as well, and some that fall into multiple categories.

EDIT We hit over 500 votes now so that means Alien Isolation! Now the question is how should I give this game away? One private link inserted into this thread or some other nefarious way?

EDIT Ok guys, I decided not to just post a link and instead create a very simple puzzle. solve the puzzle to get into the Alien Isolation giveaway. Please don't give the private link out to anyone. If the link gets leaked the giveaway will be canceled, you will be blacklisted, and I will redo everything.

Here is the puzzle: http://www.itstoohard.com/puzzle/KEg9nqwI

If you enter the giveaway, answer the question or be blacklisted.

FINAL EDIT
The giveaway has ended! Thank you everyone who followed the rules. 9 people did not follow the rules and found themselves on my blacklist. It is surprising to see that many after having to do a puzzle to get in. I am guessing those who are on my blacklist are ones that got the link by other means so they deserve to be there.

As for the puzzle answers... Here are the Answers:

Q1:
to win a game
to win
to enter a giveaway
to get a game
to solve a puzzle
to get a link
to win alien isolation
because I am a leech
because I'm a leech
because I want to win

Q2:

no

Q3:

Q4:
Handsome Jack

Q5:

Q6-Q10:
Yes

Q11:
a color

Hope you all had fun and see you next time...

I'm so unlucky because I never win anything, but really I just don't understand simple math.

Oh c'mon! Everyone knows that Jem was hotter than Barbie! Although, the Misfits were hotter than either.

im a forum lurker, give away stuff when i can, unfortunately that has decreased dramatically ever since valve put those stupid region locks (i'm in an affected region) so i'm slowly turning into a leech :(

I do try to keep my won/given ratio roughly the same though i've been slipping a lot lately...

I originally signed to SG to give away games. Been giving them before and was happy to find a place. These days I'm mostly inactive. I give a little more at the GOG forum, but not by much.

Wanted to pick the Borderlands reference, but I changed my mind and decided to be honest instead. :D

"I truly give to the community because I enjoy giving games away to people and making them happy." makes me feel like an ass, so I'll say keeping things fair?

It does feel a bit smug, doesn't it? But I think the idea still comes through.

I voted "I'm so unlucky" but just because it's the funnier answer.

I'm unlucky, not stupid. When I have nearly 10 giveaways hosted, over 500 losses, and 0 wins, there's something wrong. And it's not like I'm predominantly giving away bundle cruft or cheap games.

It would seem to me that you need to enter more giveaways.

On the flip side, as your CV creeps up, you will start getting invited to more and more private groups where the odds of winning are greatly increased.

I'm somewhere between the 4th and 5th answers. I like to give more than I receive, but I also like participating in the community and have dropped a lot of keys/links. This place can really be a timesink, though.

None of the above...?
I don't keep up with my wins. A look at my profile clearly shows that. I pick up games on deals to giveaway not because of CV but because that's what I can afford to give. I have bought some games to giveaway just to give back that weren't too cheap at the time like dungeon siege 3 and hitman absolution (they've fallen in price a lot since then). But most of my wins are bundle games and most of my GAs are bundle games. I just participate mainly in a bundle group.

Why feel the need to put down people who can't give as much though? it's like you automatically assumed that if people haven't given away as much as they have won then they're immediately bad people. I know you don't say as much but your poll wording shows such an opinion. Not everyone can spare so much to giveaway. And before anyone pulls out examples of people in the community who give away lots even though they have little... yes, I'm aware of them... but management of money is a personal business. If that person feels that's how they want to spend their allotted money then kudos to them. Not everyone has the same priorities.

I usually join quite a few giveaways, but I try to make giveaways often. I can't really right now, but I hope soon I can go back to giving away multiple games.

Make users have a fight to the death for it. Or a link. That's good too.
