Our group name is also a statement of purpose. We strive to create an environment where all our members can have access to Quality Game Giveaways and a proper chance to win them.

It is a simple aim, or at least, it should be. Since the conception of the group, roughly 6 years have passed and time has shown us that while a goal might appear simple and direct, it will still require a proper structure for it to work. This means that our group rules came into shape after countless revisions and discussions, and while there is always room for flexibility and change, the most important thing is that they are there for good reason: to make things as fair as possible for everyone and ensure that only those who want the same things stay in the same group.

So if you....
...like to give back and enjoy quality games giveaways, this is the group for you.
...like for your games to be played and play the games you win, this can be the group for you.

Here are some giveaways that got 12+ entries in our group in the last month (you can see the top 10 from previous months here)

How to join:

  1. Read all the group rules (especially the "new members rules"), understand them (if anything is unclear - ask me), and be willing to follow them. Full group rules can be found here.
  2. See that you comply with all the general rules. if you don't, I won't add you to the group, so there's no point applying.
  3. Leave a message in this thread with the name of the game you're planning for your "new member first giveaway".
  4. I (Mdk25) will add you as a friend on Steam (so I can communicate with you)
  5. I will invite you to the group

Group recruitment window is from the 1st to the 20th of each month.

GENERAL RULES

• At least Level 3 on SteamGifts
• Have given away "QGG Monthly"-quality games in the past
• If you're new to SteamGifts, you need to be a member for at least 3 months, and be a member of at least one other closed group (a group where you need approval to join).
• For users below level 5: User must have a positive Real CV ratio (Check ratio here) OR Positive SteamGifts won/sent ratio
• Clean slate at SteamRep (https://steamrep.com)
• Steam profile has to be public
• Multiple or unredeemed wins within the last year - are forbidden.

NEW MEMBERS FIRST GIVEAWAY

Please read these rules carefully, and only apply if you're sure you can follow them.
• New members need to create a giveaway in 48h upon receiving an invite to the group
• New members first giveaway must be a QGG group-exclusive giveaway
• New members first giveaway must last at least 7 days
• New members CANNOT enter any group giveaways until their first giveaway is finished. (Finished = marked as received by the winner)
• New members first giveaway must have at least 12 entries when it's finished. To check how many entries individual games received in QGG giveaways - see insturctions at the bottom.
• New members first giveaway counts as the monthly giveaway of the month he joined
• New members first giveaway cannot be region locked
• New members first giveaway must have at least 10P value, and one of the following:

  • 10,000+ reviews on Steam and 70%+ Steam rating
  • 1,000+ reviews on Steam and 80%+ Steam rating
  • 100+ reviews on Steam and 90%+ Steam rating

(I recommend using the tool provided below, to checking how many entries it got last time this game was given away in the group, to prevent the situation where your first giveaway doesn't get enough entries, and you're forced to create a new one to replace it and wait another week)

For full list of rules, see our group rules page

Rules still unclear? Check here

How to check how many entries a game received when it was given away in QGG:

  1. Go to http://www.sgmt.name:8080/SGMT/CheckGameGiveawaysUI
  2. Under “Group” choose from a dropdown: “Quality Games Giveaways”
  3. Under “Name of the Game” write the full or partial name of a game
  4. Optional: You can add “Start Date” if you only want to see GAs from last 3 months for example.
  5. Click on “Get Giveaways Data” at the bottom

A word of advice: This is not one of those groups where nobody really checks what you do, so you can do whatever and nobody will care. This group is more similar to "Actually Playing Games" or "Playing Appreciated" where there are strict rules, and everyone needs to follow them to the T. If you're more a free spirit, who just wants to give some games and win some games, and not to think about it too much - this is not the group for you!

A word of advice #2: If you're thinking of joining the group, and entering as many giveaways as possible until you're kicked from the group - please don't!
Many have tried. All have failed. Our group management tool allows me to see exactly which GAs each member joins, and as soon as I detect new members trying this, this person is kicked from the group and blacklisted by all members.

Management of this group is done using the SGMT tool. All checks and verifications (new user, monthly, GA quality, etc.) are fully automatic.

Hi SNK7,
Prototype 2 is problematic - as it doesn't fit the "new member GA" requirements.
Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel is OK.

  2. If you want to join, please make sure you read are group rules, and let me know what your "new member" GA is going to be.
  3. Welcome back to SteamGifts! :D

Fran Bow has a chance to pass the minimum required entries, but Beholder 2 is a safer bet - so I recommend it.

Hi andreeeeeww,
Unfortunately, Battletech only got 8 entries last time it was given away in our group (yesterday), so it will not fit as your "new member giveaway".
Please choose a different game.
And feel free to use the tool mentioned in the description to check number of entries in previous giveaways.

my fault, i used the wrong group in the tool. the only other game i have now that i thought could fit the criteria is 'sonic mania', but that even falls a little short. money is a little tight right now so i can't buy anything specially for the giveaway. i'll reapply again in the future at a better time. 😉

Hello, I have a question, I reread the rules but I don't find my answer. Can a game that was given away for free be given away as an "extra" (so not monthly ga)? Aside from the fact that it was given away it fits the criteria for QQ giveaways and I got it in a bundle. (it's Deponia: The Complete Journey)

Pretty sure you can but it can only be given as a group only giveaway now. Chances are you will get no entries.
Just checked the last giveaway for the game was made a month or so ago and it got no entries.

As steveywonder75 correctly answered, it can only be given away as a group-exclusive giveaway (to prevent abuse).
This rule (and other smaller / specific rules) does not appear here, but it does appear on our group rules page.
Under "ANTI-ABUSE RULES" section.

It looks like HERO DEFENSE doesn't qualify according to our "new member giveaway" requirements (It only has 367 reviews, only 71% of which are positive).
Please see our group rules (look for the words NEW MEMBERS on top of this page) for our "new member giveaway" requirements.

Hi logvip08,
Motorsport Manager is indeed a fine game, unfortunately, it only got 8 entries last time it was given away in QGG, so it doesn't fit the "new member giveaway" requirements.
Please choose a different game.

Unfortunately "Hover" only got 10 entires last time it was given away in the group (a year ago), and has been bundled multiple times since.
So it's unlikely it will pass our "new member giveaway" requirements.
Feel free to use the SGMT tool described under "How to check how many entries a game received when it was given away in QGG" to find an appropriate game.

but from history of the group from the link u sent me, 1 got 17 entries, anyways, i will find another one

You are correct.
However, if you look in the "start time" and "end time" columns, you will see that the giveaway with 17 entries is from March 2019, while the last giveaway (from November) got only 2 entires (and previous giveaways, got 0-2 entries each).
Which makes sense, as the game was much more popuar when it just released and was unbundled, and as soon as it was bundled many people got it from the bundle, so much less people are willing to enter the giveaway.

Hi eeev,
Unfortunately, each of the games you proposed only got 10 entries in QGG last time they were given away. And that was a month ago.
So you can try with either game if you like, but there is a large chance you won't reach the needed number of entries.
How would you like to proceed?

Hi Mdk25,
thanks for getting back to my request in such a timely manner. Could you please clarify a thing for me? I found different pieces of information among your rules for new members: OP up there says New Member Giveaway (NMG) needs 12 entries, somewhere else I read it needs 17; and in another place I found a requirement of 16 entries.

How many entries would I need? If it was indeed 12, I might be successful with Yakuza Kiwami or My Time at Portia

Hi,
You're indeed correct.
It's written in several places, that's why it's a chore to change all of them :)
The number has changed over the years (and group size), and currently stands at 12 (as written here).
I've changed the other links you found to be correct as well (for the near future at least).
