I hesitated a bit since I'm currently on a temporary layoff, but I believe I can still scrounge up enough to make a decent offering.
So, if you'll have me once again, I'm definitely willing to join.

Average of 40 entries per giveaway?! Good grief, you make me look bad. P

Edit: removed - Zelghadis convinced me not to apply.

my intention was not to convince you not to apply, but to fasirly warn you that it is a hardcore event and coming in with attitude "well, I can meet bare minimum requirements and enjoy all other GAs" may not be welcome as it was with other users in past events who shown such an attitude.

You assumed this was my intention? Awesome. Again I don't have the money for triple AAA titles. That's why I wanted to make sure beforehand I could even meet the minimum requirements before I have to spend money I don't have.
Again, my ratio isn't really proving the point of being after profitz like konrads would say.

I did not. But as your comment was "Only one non-bundled game, no matter what value and I'd be good to go? " I simply answered that no, you'd probably wouldn't be good to go, unless this one non-bundled game would be really really good one. It's not about you personally or anything. It's about what is the best from group perspective. It's better to invite a user who can contribute more to an event than an user who can do just a minimum. It does not mean that user who can do a minimum is a bad user or anything, but for the event it's better to choose someone else. Simple as that

Please don't let zelghadis' explanation discourage you from applying. As long as you're willing to meet the requirements, expectations of others are merely just that. Not being fortunate enough to afford catering to your collaborators shouldn't stop you, and if it does, you were already prepared to not participate in this event.

This was actually a lot of fun last time! A bit stressful in the beginning though :D I want to do it again :)
I hope to get an invite in the future. Not going to ask for an invite for this event but showing my face so I could try to squeeze in when winter comes :3

We tend to have more "heavy hitters" for New Year's than for Summer, but it's always a bit of a scramble when the bells go off and the gates are thrown open. It's sort of like a mini-game, innit? D

And once again it's time for SimGive huh? Although I'm mod of the group (didn't get kicked) and worked on the bot for the extended stats, I don't want to have a reserved spot or anything like that, therefore I want to apply for a spot in this event.
Last events were awesome and unbeatable, but can we beat the records once more?

I'm interested in participating. Seems like a fun event.

I'm gonna have to abstain from applying this time around. It was an absolute blast though, especially when it came time to pick and we were all in group chat! Have a bump and I wish you all the best event so far!

I'm willing to try, though I wouldn't be able to match the 34 gifts I did during the last event. I'll have to be more sensible with my money for this event.

Let's be fair. He did have an average of about 31 entries for each of his 21 giveaways, and he had fewer wins than expected, overall. P

Update 26th July
Our new record is now set to 1743 unique giveaways and over 1840 gifts sent. We didn't even need to have a consolation round since everyone had decent wins. This was probably our best event so far!
Update 28th November
Teasing for those interested in future events, we already have over 1200 unique giveaway reservations. Most of them (about 800) were reserved in the first hour of reservations.
Created 18th November
Hello again community!
Some of you may already know what this thread is for, so if you do please skip the introduction part, but read the rest:
Group Introduction
First of all you should know that this is not a new group, it was first created during Chrismas 2012 and since then we've had seven successful events:
The group's stats page can give you a glimpse of that success.
So it is obvious by the repetition pattern, that we operate close and during big Steam Sales. The goal of this group is to gather a certain amount of members that will create unique quality giveaways and share them with the rest. The tricky part is that ALL of those giveaways will end at exactly the same time, regardless of the time zone.
For that to work there are some rules to follow:
It's simpler than it looks, the hardest part is for me and the mods to organize and make sure people follow the rules.
For those that need more details, you should check on the group's profile here.
Also take a look at our FAQ.
How to enter the group
What you should also know
What's the group's timeline
(read this if you get to be a member of this group)
This time around I created Steam group calendar events but the general idea is as follows:
Few last words
Our last event had 70 members and 1711 unique giveaways (average of 24 giveaways per member, which means also an average of 24 wins per member). Everyone who entered at least one giveaway won something, but still the unluckiest eight got 1 extra game from their wishlist as "consolation" on behalf of many of our members who donated the amount needed. Almost everything went smoothly and I will do my best for things to go even better.
tl;dr
This group is not for you
