Asbeau: Thanks, but I think you intended to make a giveaway for the group and this one's public :)

If you want to make a giveaway for the group, when you create your giveaway and you get to '6: Who can enter' choose 'Whitelist / Steam Groups' and select 'GOG.com Gift Club' from the available groups. This will ensure only people in the group can enter.

EDIT: Oh shit, I only read the last post and was mega-ninja'd. Sorry!
I didn't realize, I had to be level 6 on steamgifts to do GA's to GGC, you can delete me from the group until I reach level 6. if you want.

Sorry about that

All the best

You do not read well Asbeau's instructions. You do not need to be level 6 to do giveaways for the group (I am level 5 only). He says that when you create a giveaway, in the sixth step '6: Who can enter', you need to check 'GOG.com Gift Club'.

I lost my Glasses at the time [found now!]

He said when I get to 6, I assumed level 6, not 'step 6' everything is clear now, thanks for taking the time to explain.

Have a good weekend.

Unfortunately, the 4 GAs you have done have less than 5 entries and do not count for Steamgifts CV.

well then... what's the point of using SG then if I can't rank up to get access to more GAs?

Unfortunately, for less popular games, it is horrible to say this, but it might not be beneficial to give them away exclusively to this group. You probably won't get enough entries (you need 5) for increasing your CV if you don't have it last long enough.
I usually search for the game I am planning to give away here: https://www.steamgifts.com/group/f2hXw/goggift/wishlist
Before making the giveaway, to make sure there is enough demand for it on gog.

For example, I searched all these games on the gog wishlist on sg, and none of them have over 4 people wishlisting it, so I ended up making a non-gog exclusive giveaway train:

Also, I didn't see your message earlier, or I might have set the CV limit lower, sorry cecil!

No worries! I don't own steamgifts, so I owe it no allegiance. Be as harsh as you like :D.

I meant that more to the group as a whole as in here I am invited finally get in and then it seems like I am complaining which is not my intent and I am honored to be part of this group.

Many thanks to Asbeau, siulebuo, babark, and everyone else helping the new members in this thread. Unfortunately, I haven't been around here because I've been suffering from Tendinitis & Bursitis in my left shoulder and arm since the past Sunday 4, and after a visit to my clinic after some days of agonizing pain and noticeable swelling, my whole left arm and shoulder had to be immobilized. For now, I can only type with one hand (and play only HOG games with my good hand, LOL :P).

Also, many thanks for the giveaways, guys ^_^

Don't worry about it ;). As babark said, you need at least 5 entries in your giveaways for it to count towards your CV, and because this group is kind of small, sometimes is hard to get enough entries for games that usually appear in bundles, because most of them are already own by the members.

In this link you can see past and current giveaways for the group, and for reference, you can see the number of entries of each one, in case you prefer to create giveaways for other groups/private/public instead with the games that normally always get few entries from this group to boost your CV:

https://www.steamgifts.com/group/f2hXw/goggift

But as you may know, this group is for gifting Steam games to active GOG members (that are part of this group), while the value/price and CV aspects are not considered just because we all are friendly gamers, and usually members enter for games they will play at some point, and not just for collecting. But is totally understandable that new and old SteamGifts members want to get more entries to boost the CV to reach new levels, so if you prefer to also gift games outside of the group, that's also okay.


P.S.: It took me a whole hour just to type this, LOL (ouch... :P)
