Post FREE STEAM GAMES!
http://www.steamgifts.com/

As shady as it may seem about free Steam games, it's real. People have giveaways for random Steam games and you enter for your chance to win. I've been entering since a little after Xmas and finally won something(took about 80 entries for me to win one) and the guy came through and delivered. Wasn't going to post it until i was sure everyone wouldn't be wasting their time trying to enter fake giveaways possibly getting scammed.

So basically you log in with your Steam account through the Steam API. For those of you who have played TF2 and tried to trade something on another website have dealt with Steam API before. That is just to make sure you only have 1 account tied to your Steam account so you can't enter 50 times on 50 accounts for the same game.

They use this point system for entries, and here is how everything goes down quoted from the site

Quote:
New users will start with 25 points. Now, how it works.

When a giveaway is created on the site, every single member gets 10% of that value in points. So, if I started a giveaway at this moment, for a $50 Steam game, everyone would now have an extra 5 points. When you enter a giveaway, you spend these points. If you enter for a game worth $20, you spend 20 points, and you'll see the number next to Logout drop by 20. If you decide to remove your entry while the giveaway is still open, those 20 points are returned. And of course, if you don't have the required number of points, you're unable to enter that giveaway.

At most, you can save up to 300 points. This way, people can't be inactive for months, and then return to thousands of points, entering everything.

Numbers are rounded up, so if someone creates a giveaway for a $1 game, 1/10 = 0.1 points, but that's rounded to 1, so it helps to contribute to everyone.


So good luck everyone that signs up!

I entered that one too! It was on reddit :)


Is DoD:S good? I never played it. I have the original but I played it once but the graphics too outdated for me.

I entered in the HL2 giveaway too :) wish there was a CS:GO one besides the survey, still no key :/

On the DOD:S thing, just me and my conspiracies, does it or does it not make sense that Valve is gonna make a new DOD? possibly present day, future, or go back a few back steps a la Vietnam War and above (i really doubt they'll make a Vietnam game but who knows right?). Any ways my 2 cents for all of ya'll

I have been using this a lot lately, and I quite enjoy it. I might start doing giveaways of my own and maybe do one just for the rct group.
