I'm doing alright I think... Not so great, but not as bad as could be. Just have to deal with what we have, and try to make the most of that, I suppose.

Oh and, you meet requirements to be safe anyway, since you're already on my whitelist. Immunity is yours. Unless you'd like me to remove you so you can challenge the blacklist... :P

You are safe! Noticed you whitelisted me after checking, so that's good enough for me. Maybe I removed you for some reason, if you were on there... or maybe you just simply had me on there from another time. Your heart will indeed go on regardless! Welcome again to my own hearts if you weren't on there before now!

You're welcome! Pressure's off! ;)

• I may also break my own rule and grant immunity in the midst of things - if certain secret requirements are met.

The candy drawer is locked, but you can still open it. ;)

Haha good stuff :D Blacklist giveaways would be so much fun.

And yeah, it's true, "Evil Genome" looks nice but it feels too bad for me to participate. Too risky as well. I just don't wanna be blacklisted by the candy master himself.
I will resist. :)

I haven't played it... sadly. I haven't done a lot since I'm so backlogged, not just with things I want to play, but with a lot of curations I snagged up I'm trying to get a review in for... so I'm way back, but catching up a little bit. Always busy with a review game or three though...

Hmm... That's tough. I'll get some numbers in a sec. Immunity status can of course change if others find the golden ticket too!

View attached image.

As far as the winner goes: they will get a key, and they can also choose to play the game, and write a review of it. If I can see a link for their review and also a screenshot that shows they finished the game, or maybe some steam achievement proving it is beaten... then I will remove them from the blacklist. Everyone that enters will be blacklisted once my giveaway ends, unless they meet requirements I have made, but they are secret. If they were not "immune" according to my requirements, then yes, upon receiving key, they get blacklisted also. If they do the above review and play the game, they will be removed, as long as the review is a real and honest review. Not one sentence or something... for instance.

So, if somebody joins, and wants to leave giveaway later, I will not be adding them if they are no longer in at the end. Only people not meeting my requirements at the end of the giveaways, once the time is up and it is over.

If you were on my whitelist, you cannot be blacklisted, so they have a free chance. Everyone else will have to either rely on luck and hope they win, or meet those secret requirements I have. Entries not meeting any requirements I have will be added to my blacklist, and cannot join any more of my giveaways, until a day comes I decide to remove everybody off.

Let me know if that makes more sense!

But yeah, in short, they're blacklisted until they provide play information and a review. :D You can still send off a key to somebody and blacklist them after. They cannot respond on Steam through giveaways, but can still write on forums (like the one I have), or can friend request me after the giveaway, if they wanted to send some stuff through Steam instead to get around the whole blacklist communication problem - since there is no way to respond without forums. That's acceptable also - just showing the finished game and a review on the forum page, or anywhere I've created a discussion.

B-B-But you .... you're immune! I'm kidding (not about being immune, as you are, but I'm happy you plan to write something if you win). Always nice for the developers, and steam community as a whole, if we can give some feedback!

That's kinda why I got so sour and salty about them removing the curation links from steamgifts recruitment and forums pages in general.

• I may also break my own rule and grant immunity in the midst of things - if certain secret requirements are met. There are several ways to attain this status involving multiple parts.

Have no fear! You meet a special requirement after doing a check over some things... You're safe from the blacklist.

Added to my whitelist as well, for ... well... reasons! Karma? Yep, karma has shown itself!

So, you pass on several fronts - no problemo, if you feel the desire to still join up for this giveaway.

Onto the next! :D

You meet a requirement currently that gives you immunity, so no worries!

Next giveaway is up, plus results of the previous! ^_^

You're welcome! Let me know if you ever feel the desire to play it in depth and/or review! I'm not too concerned, but originally, developer asked me if I could put the word out to get some feedback on them, or a review. No pressure though, since you are already on my whitelist!
