Did you add users from whom you won the most in your whitelist?
I think, the users from whom you won the most for sure should be in your whitelist. What do you think, should they?
Nope. In many cases they are just sharing groups, then being lucky... in public cases as well. I don't feel like I owe anything to people anything more than to others, as they only made giveaways and then SG randomizer rolled me

I had to re-new my scripts after SG changed the way their data can be retrieved. Only got the time and access to my code now. But better late than never, so the site is working again!

Interesting and useful tool!!! Bookmarked!!!
Thanks for sharing!!! 😸👍🏽

Hi, ercalote. Thanks for your work here. Nice coding!
Was wondering. There is a cumbersome script out there that is supposed to allow you to check all the members in a Steam Group for Owning or Wishlisting a particular game.
-Pull Member List of Steam Group
-Scan Members for Owning a Particular Game
-Scan Members who don't own for Wishlisting the Game
(the last two steps could be combined into a single step)
-Show results For x/members don't own the game, and x have it Wishlisted.
This is supposed to help determine if a specific game GA to a specific group is a good match, but could have other uses as well.
Not sure how much work it would be, but the script is awkward to use and clunky, and I would rather remove it from my system since I don't use it as much as I would like since it isn't straightforward to use and buggy.
If you think you could add this functionality to your site without much trouble, that would be so awesome.
Your coding, layout, and so forth are all clean and well thought out. Hopefully, you would be willing to take a couple of hours and make this a reality. I realize the Steam API and SteamGifts API are probably not the same, but I thought you might be up to the challenge.
Thanks for your consideration!

Thanks for appreciating my work :)
Concerning your request about owning/wishing functionality, I would try to allocate some time to implement it. The fact that steam web api does not have anything about wish lists does not help unfortunately.

Keep us posted if you are able to make any headway.

Can you give me an example of group you want to get information about? Just for testing.
Comment has been collapsed.
Well, the groups I would personally use it with are the "Jedi Training" and "My Trash Your Treasure" discussion groups.
I believe they are both closed groups that you have to be invited to. The functionality should work the same with any group,
though, I would think.
Let me know if I can be of actual help with anything else.

Have no easy way to cross check the results, but that can certainly be useful!
A bit more of a job, but would you be able to check members ownership and wishlist for a specific game title?
The other script utilized the Steam AppID or something like that. Wonder if you could figure out a way to do it
without having to find the AppID to enter in,
Please add what you were already successful with doing to your web page so it can be used by others.
I admire your ability. I haven't programmed for decades, and miss the joy of creating something.

Nice coding! Can be useful! I did add 2 of the top 3 I have won from to my Whitelist!
I took into consideration the quality of the wins and their P value as well which is why 1 didn't make it.

Never knew about this until today :o
Hope it's up again soon

Thank you very much for getting the site back up! :)
Considering "Sent games": If you hover the mouse pointer over the username, it correctly lists all the games user B has won from user A. But the text above mixed up "won" and "sent" and thus lists "Games user A has won from user B". It has to be "Games user A has sent user B" oder "Games user B has won from user A":
I hope you can understand what I'm trying to say without providing screenshots :)

LOL... Did you notice you're responding to comments from over a year ago?
Cool little website though. Add a few other bits of functionality to it, and you could start to gather regular traffic.

Sadly, "Error. An error occurred while processing your request." Could you possibly fix it again, please?
Comment has been collapsed.
Works for the from who we have won but it still gives this error for when we try to see who won from us.
Thanks for dropping by! :D

Damn, that strange. I applied another fix now, let me know if it helped.
Comment has been collapsed.
It did! 126 unique and 3 tie on #1 with 2 xD
Still that takes a lot of luck as I make public ga's and not with multi-copies.. Huh..
Thanks :D
Comment has been collapsed.
Welp, I broke it: "An Error occurred while processing your request."
Could it have anything to do with a bunch of GAs and hitting some kind of variable limits (you didn't define anything as smallint, did you ;) )?
Comment has been collapsed.
It does something with SSL and TLS setting of HTTP client. Not sure what changed, why, and where. But it seems I managed to fix it. Can you try again?
Comment has been collapsed.
Nope, still broken. Before, I could get the "wins" to come up for me (although it took a long time...not surprising, as I have some pretty large numbers for SG, so if nothing else, this is a good test of your utility at scale 😁) but the "sent" failed. Now they both fail, although they fail a lot faster. 😜
Comment has been collapsed.
Yeah, you case is special.. My script gets banned by IP because it makes too many requests to SG in a short time due to your amazing gifting history😅 I will think what I can do to make it work, but this is not a trivial problem.
Comment has been collapsed.
Lol, I figured it was something like that. Yeah, with the timing limits on number of calls via the API, you'll have to batch the requests via a timer event/function to prevent long lists from making it crash. :)
Comment has been collapsed.
SG does not expose any APIs, so the only way to get information is to download html pages one by one, and SG does not like it apparently. The limits for the number of calls are unknown, which makes it difficult.
Comment has been collapsed.
There actually is a json interface: https://www.steamgifts.com/discussion/XFaPQ/json-support
And the rate limits are also public: https://www.steamgifts.com/discussion/yLOhv/rate-limiting-limits
Comment has been collapsed.
Ohhh thanks so much for the links! In 2016 when I created this script, json api was not available and the limits were not known :) And in 2020 I was not much around anymore.
I now changed the script to use the api. Works much faster now, so awesome!

I missed it as well and only found out when I was looking into making a quick python script cause your site was down :-)
Comment has been collapsed.
Aargh. That's inconvenient. You should talk with the author of ESGST and see how they coded all of the necessary timing bits into that plugin. ESGST discussion page They can probably help. :)

There was an api as a matter of fact, but I was not aware. I changed my script now, finally it should work for you :)

Hi ercalote, thanks for the Deeper SG stats! The site is still working great!
I see you still visit SteamGifts. May I ask you for a favor?
Would it be possible for you to add one extra drop down option to the Deeper SG stats?
Option to list all the won games but by points value of the game listed by desc order. Just the list of "games name" and "point size" with tab as a separator (for easy copy to spreadsheet). Other users might be interested also in 3rd field "user name" from whom they have won the game.
Recently (a year ago, and again few days ago) some publishers started to have big price hikes (from $1 to $200). This started making havoc in groups that use the ratio. This new option would be easy way to find in personal Steam library won games which got overpriced recently.
I used your site to list the games, then I have edited web page source code to get regular list and then copied that to Excel sheet, created table, so i could have an option to list all the games by point size. This is not really practical for other users, and also other games will change prices drastically in time, so doing this manual process is not practical in long run for more regular use.
Thanks!

Hey there! I do not visit SG often anymore, sorry for the delay!
I implemented a new section 'Ledger' at the bottom of both Sent and Won pages.
Let me know if this helps!

Deeper SG stats
When returning from work today I was thinking from which users at steamgifts I won the most games. To find this out I decided to create a little tool. But then I thought that other users would probably also want to know from whom they won the most, that's why I created a small website. Probably it is a bit slow, the GUI is bad, the code is awful but I spent only 1.5 hours on it and it seems to be working, so I hope it is fine for now.
I think, the users from whom you won the most for sure should be in your whitelist. What do you think, should they? Please also share your results, it is always interesting thing to see :) Mine results are attached.
Update 29.07: you can check which games you have won from which user. Just hover the mouse other any username.
Update 29.07: you can now sort not only by the number of wins, but also by the total points! Try it out!
Update 31.07: you can now check which users won the most from you!
