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.

Hello, none of the games you listed will work as they only got 1 or 0 entries the last time they were given away in the group.

Please use the search box, replace the text "age of wonders III" with other games you have and want to try and see if it has been given away in the group before and how many entries it had.

Hey Threepw00d,

So it's unlikley to reach the required minimum.
Do you have another game in mind?

Ah I see, that's too bad. Great looking game but I guess Humble Bundle games are typically going to be given away quickly.

I'll pass then my friend, but appreciate the invite and heads-up anyway. Cheers!

Not necessarily.
The more popular Humble Choice (Like Vampyr or Call of Cthulhu from last month) games get plenty of entries (especially near the start of the month).
The less popular ones, get given away plenty, and indeed drop in entries gained rather quickly.

In any case - thanks for considering us :)

Hi Escruidin,
Although BlazBlue Centralfiction has good enough Steam score, it was never given away in our group.
Therefore it's impossible to know if it gets enough entries.
You need to be aware that if it doesn't, you would need to create a new giveaway instead (and wait for it to end before being able to enter group giveaways)

Please let me know how you want to proceed.

I did check the tool before and noticed that as well. I would like to try with BlazBlue. In case I don't get enough entries, would it be okay for me to talk with the winner to delete the giveaway?

Yes, I am aware I would have to wait another week with the other giveaway. That is fine by me. :D

Hey Mdk! Thanks, already started the giveaway.

Question: I noticed I had already entered for two giveaways that are multi-group. I am part of that other group (TotalWarArena), so do I need to take my entries off?

I already had access to them prior to entering QGG.
Here are them:
https://www.steamgifts.com/giveaway/dfb3t/arcana-heart-3-love-max
https://www.steamgifts.com/giveaway/l9agW/degrees-of-separation

Degrees of separation specifically has been on my wishlist for some time, so if it would be pretty sad if I had to take the entry off, since I am a part of the other group already.

Thank you for this chance.
I have a question. I just checked https://www.steamgifts.com/group/6HSPr/qgg-group/users and it appears I already start handicapped. It must be from those few giveaways I won that were shared with other groups and WL. Does this count to the value I should maintain? Does this also work forward? Will winning shared giveaways from now on impact my ratio in this group?

Does this count to the value I should maintain?

Yes. This is how SteamGifts keeps score.
Fortunately your first giveaway will offset some of it.

Does this also work forward?

Yes.

Will winning shared giveaways from now on impact my ratio in this group?

Yes, this is a SteamGifts mechanism that is not unique to our group.
When you win a GA shared between two groups, your ratio is shared as well.
Same goes for creating giveaways for multiple groups.

Hey I would like to join, a game I can GA is vampyr/American fugitive

4 years ago
Permalink

Comment has been collapsed.

Hello WetCat,
Unfortunately Vampyr would not be a good choice, as it only got 12-13 entries when it was given away recently in our group.
American fugitive would not be a good choice either, as it only got 1 entry.

Feel free to use our SGMT tool to check for yourself.

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

and 12-13 is not good? I mean it's close to 15 I could just set extra time and it will prob get 15 no?
I can also GA the narcos game but I didn't saw any results there for it

4 years ago
Permalink

Comment has been collapsed.

A couple of things.

  1. It needs to be 16+, not 15.
  2. The giveaway lasted 7 days when it got 12 entries. So making it longer won't really help.
    Also, with time more and more people get the game from various sources (From the bundle, win in other groups, or even buy it themselves) so the number of entries only goes down as time passes.
  3. If you mean "Narcos: Rise of the Cartels" - it won't do. You didn't find it because it was never given away in our group, because it's Steam reviews are way below minimum group standards (51% positive with 166 reviews).

If you want examples of games that reach 16+ entries in our group, you can see the list of games from last month on the top of this page.
Or for example Humble Choice games from this month: Tropico 6, Fae Tactics or the Sunless Bundle games (probably).

4 years ago

Comment has been collapsed.

Honestly, I don't think any of the Humble Choice games are getting 16 entries this month, they kinda sucked. So yeah, I wouldn't suggest giving away those as a first GA.

The list on the main thread is your way to go tbh. Just note that some games there also didn't get 16 entries this month when given away (BlazBlue Centralfiction is a good example, only 15. I know this because I gave away all the copies of it :P). So remember to check using the tool provided or in the "Giveaways" section of the group page here on SG.

Also, note that the tool is more reliable, because the "Giveaways" section will also show shared GAs.

I still don't see the dropdown in the tool :( Also, when I search any game by editing the URL you just sent it always says 0 entries, is that just on my end?

Anyways, would it be possible to try giving jackbox away? I understand it might not get enough entries. The last time it was given away it was recently bundled, and it's been over a year now so I think demand might be back up a little.

Its preferable you choose a different game as your first giveaway.
If you still want to try with Jackbox I can allow it, but you need to consider that if it doesn't get enough entries you will need to create a different giveaway as well.
