XMAS/NY 2021 GIVEAWAY
« on: December 23, 2021, 06:27:07 am »

It's that time of the year again, and since no one will step up, it falls to me to run this again.

We are starting very late, so the first giveaway will be tomorrow. The last will be on the 5th of January.

Rules shamelessly stolen from aristabulus:

Quote


The Rules for Everyone Joining The Giveaway:


1 ) You must have made your Bay12 account before November 22, 2019. This giveaway is meant to contribute back to the community.
2 ) You must not be an Escaped Lunatic. We appreciate people who contribute to our community, so don't be shy!  :)
3 ) Link to your Steam account. If you do not know how to do this, please PM me.
4 ) It is not necessary to donate games to participate, but definitely appreciated!  Also, you do not need to sign up to win games if you wish to only donate.
5 ) Please list all games you wish to sign up for in alphabetical order.  Please be moderate with your entries, so that everyone gets a chance to win.
5a ) The title must be explicitly stated, not in a quote or spoiler fold, for a successful sign-up.  Any variation on "me too", "this", "that", or other vague language will be ignored.

Quote
    There is no firm rule for what "moderate" really means; it does kinda depend on how much is donated.  From a quick glance at last year, the person that signed up for the most stuff did not exceed 10% of the units on the schedule, and several of those were adoptions (they were the sole entrant).  Last year, I stopped counting at around 550 units donated; the final number was probably closer to 650.

    So... Don't feel guilty about being liberal with your entries.  Please don't sign up for games that you don't actually have interest in playing...  but y'all can lay it on a bit thick.  If you get carried away, I'll let you know.

6 ) This is not a wishlist.  The games donated are the games available.
6a ) This is not a giveaway for your friends or family.  This is a giveaway for dorfs, by dorfs.
7 ) If you decide later to join more games, make sure you alert me that you've already signed up.
7a ) Any changes you wish to make are preferred in a format more like "Add: XYZ, Withdraw: ABC"; I only need to see the alterations.  Replace (List A) with (List B) type posts will be ignored.
7b ) Please do not edit posts to add things.  New posts are literally my intake box; once I see it and process it, it is gone from my mind.  If anything more than about 5 minutes passes, I'd rather see a double post.
7c ) It is your own responsibility to keep a list of which game drawings you have entered.  I do not have a list of all the games for which each person is signed up...  I have a list of games that have names attached; the stuff in the OP is the only data I have.  If you don't remember all your entries, you can quote the schedule sign-ups post and use Find (ctrl+F) to search within the quoted post.
8 ) If there are multiple copies being offered for a single game, or if more copies turn up later, you only need to sign up once...  you're in it 'till you win it!
8a ) I will not be adding names directly to remainder lists.  When a new copy appears, remainders get reinstated, and anyone else can sign up like normal.
9 ) You must acknowledge that you've read these rules.
10 ) Failure to follow the rules may result in a variety of responses, including but not limited to: polite nudging, civil ignorance, being offered up as a flesh sacrifice to eldritch horrors, criminally terrible puns.

-------

The Rules for Game Donators:

1 ) I do not choose who wins your drawings. This is to maintain fairness; I will only be keeping the lists up to date, to keep things flowing smoothly for everyone.
2 ) Do NOT send me the game.  I'm just The Guy Wot Wrangles Lists.
3 ) If your game is NOT on Steam, please let me know when you sign up.
3a ) The Humble Store has gone back to a simple key generator for Steam copies, because Valve deprecated the API that ran the whole link-your-steam-account system... much simpler for everyone, including us.
3b ) If you are located in a country with a currency that is weak on the global market, any donations you might have will be region locked.  Please see this article and thisreddit post for more information.

4 ) Donations must be a game, or a game related item (like an expansion or DLC).  Bundle leftovers (like F2P starter/booster packs, or beta keys if still relevant) are allowed, but don't be surprised if no one bites.  Coupons are not allowed.  Indie Game: The Movie has a restraining order issued.
4a ) Cash equivalent "wild card" gifts are not allowed; they generate too much work for a single item, and they make people a little crazy.  For people that want to donate but don't know what to get, I'll be making a suggestion list in the days ahead.
5 ) Post the name of the game(s), and the date(s) you wish to give away.  Alphabetical order will save me time.  I would vastly prefer if people picked their dates.  If no dates are stated, I will find spots on the schedule; let me know if you'd rather do all-on-a-single-day or spread out.  Please keep in mind your availability / holiday plans / etc., and keep me informed so I don't schedule you for a day you can't make it online.  If a conflict occurs, tell me ASAP, so we can reschedule the drawing.
5a ) If your donation is more than 8 items, I'd appreciate if you'd PM me the list first, so I can do some formatting before it is publicly posted.
6 ) You are responsible for showing up on the day(s) in question to do the drawing and declare the winner.
6a ) A common method for finding the winner of a drawing is to copy-paste the name list into random.org's List Randomizer, hit randomize 5 or 6 times, and copy-paste the results into your post... the name that floats to the top of the list is the lucky winner!
6b ) If your game is scheduled alongside identical donations on the same day, please discuss timing with the other donators, so that winners are correctly removed from subsequent drawings.


FOR DONATORS: Please link to the steam page or some other identifier if possible (its ok if you dont, it just makes my life harder)
please mention if a game you are giving away has no entrants when you would have given it away


In general: I'll try to keep things correct, but mistakes may occur so please point them out for me.

If a game is unclaimed it will go to the orphanage to become first come first served.

After the 6th of next year any games still unclaimed will be the donator's problem I guess.

About-the-game links may not match up with the source of the gift.  They will mostly be Steam pages, or an easily linkable info source for the game.

Items listed on a single line are considered one item to be given away, because of bundling.

The schedule is clustered by donator (except where there's an overlap).

Once drawings start, recent additions will have a size bump and a date added note for a few days after the add.

Thanks for taking the reigns on this, a1s. I've never donated before, but I guess I'll send the games via email? (is there a way to generate a steam key for a gift that's sitting in your inventory?)

I have a few (some not very good) games that have been in my inventory for a while. Hopefully someone puts them to good use!
Cubemen (Dec 24th)
Foreign Legion: Multi Massacre - I have 3 copies to give away (Dec 24th)
Hotline Miami (Dec 24th)
State of Decay (Dec 24th)
The Ship: Murder Party (Dec 24th)
Thirty Flights of Loving (Dec 24th)



Awesomenauts has gone free to play, but I have 3 skin packs in case anyone is interested in that.

The usual way is to befriend them on Steam. And then send the gift from your inventory directly through Steam.

P.S. to facilitate the above, please add a link to your steam profile (It's in the rules)

Cool will do after baby goes to sleep. I'd like to add that Foreign Legion's 3 keys should all go to the same person. It's nothing special, and best played with a handful of pals for a night or two.

Rest of the sigs
The helicopter is rent apart by the collision, its steel unable to resist its inevitable reunion with the ground, and the meat within is smashed by the crumpling cockpit beyond any practical hope of recovery. What comes up, must come down again. Ore and ape, returned to mother planet's embrace.
