The OG behind this event is Xarlor who came up with the first community train .
it was done again by UserCar007 with some changes that i have decided to keep. which were disallowing DLCs and adding a game value requirement .The Third one was done by me .And I was greatly helped by Canis and icaio.There was a 4th one byDragoZeroNova. 5th was again done by yours truly with the help of Canis and icaio. The 6TH also by me. and the 7TH by yours truly, Arwiee , The 8th also by me.

i know i promised last year that its gonna be the last community train i ever made and i even got mods to perma ban me to make sure of it.

well

i lied.

in my defense its your fault for believing me.

  • do not delete your GA comments after making them. this is to allow people on your blacklist to give you the link to the next GA even though they cant join your GA.
  • DO NOT HARASS/INSULT PEOPLE ON THE TRAIN FOR ANY REASON!
  • Must Start on August 29 (your time) on the earliest
    *The GA cant start in the future when you try to link it to the Train.
  • Must end sometime on September 28 (again , your time)
  • No region restrictions.
  • Set to "Invite Only"
  • Game value 5P or more
  • No DLCs
  • Set Contributor Level no higher than 4
  • Post URL in the comments of the last cart in the train.
  • If there is already a link for another cart in the comments of the last cart, wait until a new cart is added.
  • Number your cart in the description.
  • In case of games that haven't been released yet and games that were just added to the SteamGifts database. they will have a 0P cost until release or the Database catches up. so the rule for those is that as long as their cost wont be lower than 5P once that happens , then the game is good. it is easy to figure out what the price range is going to be by simply look at the store page.
  • No Games that are currently being given away for free (that means at the time you make your GA)
  • just delete and remake if you make a giveaway public on accident (Mods cant change it to invite only)
  • you can always make a ticket asking for more GA slots if you need those. mods are normally happy to do that. (not the reading your ticket part)
  • incase you are blacklisted, please use open the giveaway in incognito mode so that you can get the link to the next cart, since opening it in incognito will log you out.
  • Check your GA comments regularly until you get a link for the next cart. You are responsible for adding the NEXT link in your GA description to keep the train
    growing.

Great Train, Thanks a lot. Ended up 1 win of my wish list.

I didn't enter really many carts, I still had +74% chance of winning. I don't remember having won anything in community trains, this one is no exception. Oh well...

I also missed participating, but the thought of selecting games, making the links, assigning the numbers... Was too much for me after this summer. I hope to participate properly in the Xmas one.

Edit: I just talked and I won right now one of the remaining carts by Icaio, Heart Chain Kitty - which looks surreally cute.

sooo
my carts reached their destinations (only one ticket is awating validation): 9 giveawayas, 9 different winners, yay! :D
also no wins, but that was expected :V

a huge THANKS! first and foremost goes to our great conductor, Fiddler, what a way to come back to sg! and of course to all the wonderful people (many new travellers among them) that once again brought the train to life, for this long too!

..and now I can't wait to see what the double-digit-choochoo will have in store for us next year :D

Keeping my tradition of not winning anything on the community trains :D
It was a fun ride, as always, and I was happy to contribute!
Funny stat: I created 16 carts, and 2 of them were won by the same person! A younger and less tired me would have calculated the probability for this to happen XD

One of my giveaways turned out to be region locked in RU and BY and support wouldn't reroll it, so I ended up deleting it and redoing with the proper region lock and inserted back into the train so it wouldn't get disrupted by the deleted GA, so if you didn't manage to win it before here is your second chance.

might have some delayed winners in this.
one of my carts the winner hasn't been online in 2 weeks, needless to say they only have so long to log on and with me attempting to contact.

I am afraid we have same winner. I have one double winner who haven't logged over week and other one who haven't logged two weeks.

Well, I have one who has been logged in within the last two hours every time I've looked for the last three days. Still didn't look at the key though.

Didnt win a thing, but on the bright side enjoyed interacting with the many descriptions, memes and gifs along the way💚

Also this train helped me hide many games and discover some as well🙉

This community train supposedly has one day left to enter, but all of the giveaways that I've looked already ended. Where can I find the active ones?

hey Aerctaure -- this thread is for the 2023 community train. But the 2024 community train is over. Not sure where you saw one day left to enter but that was not the official SG community train.

The title of this one still says "1 day left to enter". That's probably why. ^^

Ha wow I did not notice that! I guess we need to tell Fiddler to do a final update to the thread title after the train ends every year!
