Have fun!

In general thanks for the GA :o)

I want to advice that you set for GA's a minimum level because each one that gave one, not free, game is, at least, level 1.
It's, sadly, a fact that 40% of the level 0 accounts have infractions for unactivated or multiple wins (= reselling wins and such stuff) + the ammount of used autojoiners are much more as in higher levels.

You can check each account, special the winners, on infractions with https://www.sgtools.info/activation and https://www.sgtools.info/multiple-wins

Scroll down to the bottom and look at the "per level" info and you see we have on sg 965k accounts that never gave one game away that weren't free and only around 165k that gave something.

Oh good point! I was wondering what's the point of doing it per level, but I will begin to do it like that from now on.

By the way, is there any way to search so only level 1+ giveaways appear in the search?

Sounds good and, in general, with each higher level you have lesser problems with your winners. So it helps in the end you too with saving time and avoiding stress.

To you question below:
https://www.steamgifts.com/giveaways/search?level_min=1 (only level 1)
https://www.steamgifts.com/giveaways/search?level_min=1&level_max=2 (from 1-2)

For more take a look into https://www.steamgifts.com/discussion/1kgzB/new-search-parameters

And you can set in the options that you only see the GA's till your level and not the ones above. That is nice at the begin because a lot are "out of range".

I will set it to my current level. Otherwise seems a bit unfair to people leveling up still like me, idk :P

Sounds absolutely reasonable. You are level 6, right? ;D

Don't feel pressured into anything, just because some others prefer to restrict their giveaways. Even someone who seems to be generous might just as well give only masses of trash games which they can get for few cents. Masafor above would be a good example for that mindset.

And someone who gives little or nothing might be from a poor country, being in much bigger need of your gifts than a rich and generous person.

tldr: Do whatever you want do with your games, not what others tell you to do.

Don't bring my name up when you speak from masses of trash games that someone (can) get for a few cents.
98% of my keys are from HumbleBundle and Fanatical and you know that. They are far from the cheapest shops and far from shady or black market ones.

The most of my GA's of the last months are freebies and banned games that piled up in a list and gets sorted out (not made for my own group).

So I checked your last 250 giveaways in the recent 6 months and I stand by my statement. The vast majority of your giveaways is cheap trash.

Congratulation that you picked exactly the timeframe when i started to sorting my freebies and banned games list out (not all GA's are from that but the most in that timeframe). For sure only a coincidence :-DDDD
If someone want to influence statistics to his gain he could limit the complete data to a small part that fit him.
But it have nothing to do with the reality.

Stand by whatever you mean, as long as it make you happy :-D

I know what i paid for the big majority of my keys and each one that buy on Fanatical and HumbleBundle know that too and that you try to let my GA's look worse as they are.

Ah, you did edit your previous comment and changed "last weeks" to "last months", eh?
And then you complain and argue my chosen time frame would be "a coincidence". Typical and reason enough not to bother about you, once again.

I edited that before you answered.
Last weeks could be months too, so anyway no/only a tiny difference.

And sure, only a "coincidence", that you picked exactly the GA's AFTER ~1k+ GA's from Fanatical and HB keys. You understood exactly what i wanted to say with it.

But moving the spotlight to freebie GA's don't let my other ones disappear. At least not for the ones that look closer and don't let other ones "think" for them.

You are right, but I think it is also sensible what they said before. I think that limiting it to my level is fair :)
