Games started/finished before the start of this event(18/05/2018) do NOT count.

Just to complement Mully's post, it's ok if you have already idled the SGwin you wanna pick for this challenge as long as you haven't actually played it or unlocked achievements.
Comment has been collapsed.
just to say it was started before but was completed on the 22 (as seen on achievements) thats 4 days in to the challenge for a game thats takes ~90h to finish (which is X6 of the time you stated for a long game) :)
so is that qualify by you and ok as proof of intent? or do you still require another game for that? :)

You unlocked some achievements in april, so this game doesn't count for this challenge. You need to pick a game you won on SG but hasn't started before the first day of the challenge. From your wins, you could pick games like Swords Coast Legends, Homefront or even Stronghold Legends that you've idled a bit, for example.
It's to avoid people picking games that they have already played before, since it won't help them reduce their backlog, which is the goal of this event.

considering im a member of groups who aim for that same thing, and showed the length of time and dates its kindev contradict your aim in proof for example my profile on balaeo, but if that aint proof for you then your GA your roles :)

It's not about the amount of time invested in the game, it's just that you started the game before the start of this challenge, which wasn't allowed by the rules.
The rules in this challenge are very clear and they're are the same for everybody. I cannot, and will not, change them just for you, it wouldn't be fair with the rest of the participants. There is still plenty of time for you to play something else. Have fun! :)

its not about playing a game its about understanding the place of roles vs the point of them.
the first one is necessary to guide or to specify a parameter or a goal (in our case how to qualify to enter the challenge)
the 2nd one is necessary to know when the arnt needed or already met (in our case - actually playing SG wins and cutting backlog)
- both of them are met and with in the challenge time.
in other words a system needs to know when to not force the roles if the goals are met, as if not the system end up wasting time and resources :)
any way as i said - your GA, your roles.
i will go for Homefront (unless you change your mind) :)

I'm going to challenge Blackguards 2

Comment has been collapsed.
I'll go with 4 short games. I have some hours played on 3 first games but that's only idle hours :p

|---|---|---|
| Contrast | 3,5h | Completed |
| The Vanishing of Ethan Carter | 4h | Completed |
| To the Moon | 4h | Completed |
| SUPERHOT | 2h | Completed |
Comment has been collapsed.
Beaten all 4 ^^
Contrast - forgot to take a screenshot, I got achievement for completing the game tho
The Vanishing of Ethan Carder - Beaten on Redux version, I speedrunned the old version after for achievements :P
To The Moon - Steam overlay doesn't work in this game so no screenshots :/ Achievement as proof
SUPERHOT - I'm going to 100% this game for sure, but for now here's the proof for beating the "story" mode

Interesting event.
I'll give it a shot. I'll try to complete Toy Soldiers: Complete [24½ Hours].
Comment has been collapsed.
One question about achievements. Do i have to get all of them?
Comment has been collapsed.
no, not at all. Just play the game and finish the campaign. IIRC, this game has 3 campaigns. 1 is from a dlc (soviet one). Just the other 2 should be enough. (german and british)
Comment has been collapsed.
Nice event! Thank you! :)

I started and finished 2 short and 1 medium game. According to your math this should be enough for this event, right?
| Game | Achievements | HTLB |
|---|---|---|
| The Silent Age | 24 of 24 | 3½ Hours - Short |
| Jalopy | 12 of 23 | 5 Hours - Short |
| SOMA | 10 of 10 | 9 Hours - Medium |
I won all three games after this event started so that is checked too :)

Congrats! It's a very good game. It was one of my favorite games that I played last year.

I finished the only game I hadn't played before the event, No Time To Explain. The achievements
Comment has been collapsed.
Congrats!
It's enough, but you should give Lords of the Fallen another try in the future. It's a decent game.
Comment has been collapsed.
Thanks :)
About Lord of The Fallen, the only reason I didn't completed it is that my PC cannot run it properly :/
But I will definitely give it a try when I get my hands on a new Pc ! He should be coming soon hopefully

I love that doge pic :)
I'm afraid I don't have any wins that were unplayed when the event started. May I ask for a free pass, or should I pick some started-but-unfinished games to complete instead?
Comment has been collapsed.
Last... thank you so much for creating this event! I had the occasion to play two great adventures that I enjoyed till the last second. They were both of medium length.
| Game | Achievements | Screenshots | HLTB |
|---|---|---|---|
| The Raven Remastered | 33/34 | Screenshot | 10½ Hours |
| Kathy Rain | 20/20 | At the end of the game there weren't any end credits, but if you want, I have 4 screenshots taken during the game | 6 Hours |
Comment has been collapsed.
Yes, but playing only this game isn't enough for you to reach 100% games played anymore since you won a lot in the last 2 days. Therefore, since it's a medium game, you'll need to play another medium game or 2 short ones.
Comment has been collapsed.
ok I'll try this. I'll play La-Mulana (it already have 1 minute registered, from a distante past when I tried to see if it ran in my pc)
its a 40h game... when does the giveaway ends?

Comment has been collapsed.
Completed:
Ziggurat (4hours HLTB, Brother of Daedolon achievement)
Mythos: The Beginning - Director's Cut (wrote review afterwards) - it's also in the 4 hour range so short as well.
I think only this two so far, others aren't wins / did before the starting date.

Comment has been collapsed.
Lifeless Planet finished as well. only 5h according to HLTB, so it's a third short game.
Eventually I'll make a nice sum-up :D

Hello, I just noticed that while the game you played is a long game, it's not a SG win. Therefore it doesn't count for this event.
Comment has been collapsed.
just look your comment you say sure about sayvisual novel XD,i will try to give you another.
Comment has been collapsed.
I thought that visual novel had been won here on SG, which turned out to not be the case...
Comment has been collapsed.
ok done! hope them pass.
12 is Better Than 6
Mini Metro, Stories: The Path of Destinies, Rampage Knights three screen end
Comment has been collapsed.
Only 12 is better than 6 is a game you won here on SG. The rest of them don't count
As I said again and again this challenge is about playing games you won here, not random games.
If you don't even know where you got the games you have in your account, when it comes to SG you can check here

So...what does Beseiged and cuphead count as? Medium games?
I guess I'll try to beat those 2 then in a month. Or maybe one. I don't know how long it will take.
Comment has been collapsed.
besieged is a short game. Cuphead is a medium game. In case of doubt, just check Howlongtobeat.com

I've been thinking about a fresh start for a little while and I've decided that this event/GA was the way to do it. I emptied both my black and whitelist for this, therefore everyone has the exact same chance to win the game their heart desire.
The TL;DR: Play sg wins (if you have already played 100% of your wins or know someone who has done it, let me know and you/the person will get a free pass) -> get invited to a WL GA -> Write whatever game you want in the description of said WL GA before it ends -> if you win the WL GA, I'll buy the chosen game for you.
The complete rules:
1) Choose some games you won here and finish the required amount(The playtime should be based on Howlongtobeat.com average main story time), according to the table below:
Edit: Some people are having doubts, so let me explain. You either have to play 1 long game OR 2 medium games OR 4 short games.
Games started/finished before the start of this event(18/05/2018) do NOT count.
2) You will have until the end of the GA (~1 month) to prove it to me, either through a screenshot of the ending scene/credits or a link to the corresponding achievement page. (The game needs to be beaten/finished, which means no endless/multiplayer-only games)
3) If you manage to beat enough games and to show me some proof, I'll whitelist you, giving you access to a giveaway.
4) Write the name of the game you want inside the WL giveaway. If you win it, I'll buy that game for you. (The whitelist GA is more like a placeholder, but you'll still get it, if you want)
Don't forget to write the game you want before the WL ends. Think about it before writing it down, I won't accept changes later. Do NOT edit your post inside the WL giveaway. You'll be disqualified.
NO deluxe/gold/collector's/whatevernamemarketingiscallingthesedays edition. NO Preorders.(If it launches before the end of the WL GA, it's fine!) NO games from GOG, Origins, Blizzard, Uplay...
Some giveaways:
STRAFE: Millennium Edition
Death's Hangover
Mr. Shifty
Crazy Machines 3
If you don't care about any of this, here, have a picture of a cute doge. (You can also have fun with the poll)
PS: Thanks for the helping me set this up, Tempete! :)
PS2: It's good to be back!
