How would you return to the community?
So, with unlimited budget, you would...do all of the above?

with unlimited budget
I really don't know what would i do in imaginary situations but in current situation which is considered as real situation with zero budget I think that what I'm doing is more like magic!

Have you got a picture for every Situation appearing here on SG? xD
I think to read your comments is quite amussing :D

Would you consider the ratio in term of value of game or in term of number of game?
Comment has been collapsed.
both :3
anyway, whatever you consider more important.

With the sg tools rules people can use for giveaways both ratios can be important. You can set a rule for ratio of items given compared to received and you can also set a rule for ratio of real cv value. Not the values you see on your profile but the values seen when you check your account on sg tools which is after the 15% value for bundled games and the decline in value when 5+ copies are given away.
But like MuIIins said, whatever you find more important, it's entirely up to you.

If you're willing to spend money, I'd give some stand-alone things that I'd personally recommend over buying a bundle to give the whole thing away.
But that's because I somehow find it more gratifying to give away games that aren't given too often.

Depends on what you're comfortable with.
Some people think just giving away a partial bundle (giving away leftovers) isn't a form of "giving back", but some people think making a giveaway is already giving back to the community.

I would go for whatever i can afford but if i can afford of course non bundle games are better to giveaway imo.

It's hard for me to vote.
Let me see, I started GA with bundle leftover and from time to time I still do.
Recently, I bought full bundle solely for balance my Karma... Too much wins during short time period.
Sometimes, if there is a good deal or I want to support sellers or developers, I purchase not-yet-bundle games for GAs.
So, I cannot vote. =ㅅ=a

I'd say any of the above. I've mostly given away just left over bundle games. Only a couple of games I've actually bought to giveaway but didn't spend much. I consider and giveaway a contribution, whether it's bundled or not. One idea I have is keep an eye on indie gala's happy hour bundles. If you want to give a bit back you can always buy a bundle on happy hour, costs the same and doubles your giveaways. Or if they bring out a bundle that interests you, wait until it goes on happy hour and then buy it, you get what you're after plus an entire bundle to giveaway as well. Just remember if you do decide to do this to select that the purchase is a gift.

It feels like I've won a lot of giveaways in the last months. I've been wondering how to give back.
Most of the games I've won were games inside a bundle from the time it was won. Likewise, most of the giveaways I've created were the same (except Torchlight, which was in my Steam Inventory).
So, what would you do, oh SG community?
Edit:
In the end, I did a little of two thing: noticed unredeemed key, and bought two games (Satellite Reign, and Skyrim)
