Oh, and Jones was there too.



:gifttank: Well, here we are! It's Summer and a good portion of us are still stuck at home, so what else to do than play video games!

What is the Gift Train, and how do I participate? It's a gift-chain, everyone who signs up both gives and gets a gift, so it's basically a more convoluted way of buying games for yourself and of introducing your favourite game to others!

Just join the list by posting your Steam ID in thread, and then friend and gift to the person who signed up previous to you in the list! Everyone gives a gift, everyone gets a gift! It's that simple!

Newcomers are always welcome to join, and if you hang around, you may even get to spin THE WHEEL, OF TRASH!

:siren: Wishlists aren't public by default, check your privacy settings.


You give a gift to the previous person to sign up to the train, and you get one from the person below you! Simple as that!

To join the train, just post your steam ID URL and your country in thread, this is because you can no longer gift to a region with a price differential of more than 10%, and you can no longer save games to your inventory for later. If you have problems, just send me a message (Discord: Ko#2807 , Steam) and we'll get it sorted!

:siren: Minimum spend this sale is going to be $10 / £7 / €8.50
- If you run off without gifting, or gift below that amount, you will be permanently blacklisted.
- It's a good idea to post your country along with your Steam ID.
- Keep your wishlists up to date with affordable games!
- Please either update your spot-post, or put up a new post once you've given/revived your gifts, so I don't have to chase you down later. Chatting in thread is fine, just make it clear if you're not jumping back on!
- Communicate with the other person you're gifting to/from, make sure they want what you're giving them![/b] This is meant to be fun and a way of making new friends!

If you have to go to other places to get gifts, as Steam won't let you send anything, make sure your giftee know this before you commit. Don't buy from shady crack sites, and the Steam value is what counts for price. Be sensible with it.

Hmm, I should contact somebody for a sticky? Normally just kinda happens on it's own!

Today's gonna be a hell of a day so I won't be around until later, gotta take the dog to get spayed, amongst other things.

Gifting outside Steam, or Steam keys from Humble is okay as long as everyone involved agrees on and is happy with it and it hits the price point for Steam. I'd say throw in a couple more cheap games to make up for the inconvenience and to make it over the minimum, though.

It's better to ride less times, than try and game the system by hitting the minimum each time. People do pay attention to what you give, and give like in return!

And that's that, some of you may still have messages or friend requests from me on Steam. :3: Thanks for riding the train this sale, it's been great!

Xander has been in contact with me, and discussion can move on from him specifically now, thanks. I'm online in Steam if you want to message me about it.
