So put these together: He sends a handful of old games, which add up to somewhere above the minimum - and gets a brand new game in return. Is this breaking any rules? No. But I think we can all understand that this is a violation of the spirit of things. In the same way that 6 minimum rides are worse than 3 'double' rides.

This was one of the things that really stuck out to me this year, I think? Like......i went through and checked and 13 out of the 15 games he gave were bundle games you could find on keysites for $1-2.

I don't think giving keys is inherently bad, and I think like.......outright banning anything ever in a bundle might be coming down a little too hard*, but there's a point where it starts looking like someone isn't engaging with this dumb fun dead gay comedy forum game's subforum gift exchange so much as they're using it as a steam gacha with $3-4 pulls, I guess? (And that kind of thing is unfair to everyone, but it's especially unfair to new riders who put effort into giving nice gifts and get excited about participating and end up with a few dollars' worth of bundle leftovers.)

*Like, I think some people gift things through Steam that have been in bundles because they're not thinking about minmaxing the dumb gift exchange thing? And sometimes I add bundle keys to whatever else I'm gifting 'cos it feels like 'oh this way I can give someone a nicer gift!,' but I still make sure to spend more than the minimum 'cos I'd feel really guilty about passing off a $3 or $5 or whatever gift as some big generous Thing.

This being my first train, I tried to follow a certain etiquette. I hope I did well.

I believe the average I spent was around $21.00 USD, and the average I received was around $28.00. I only gifted stuff I had previously played (and highly recommended), and tried to gift everyone above me around (or higher than) the same price they spent. I made sure to remove most of the stuff from my wishlist that I was only marginally interested in, so everything I received was of high value to me. I notice most of ya'll are pretty drat generous anyways, so I can't really seem to be a reason against raising the min to $15 or even 20 next time around. Maybe let newcomers in one time at $10 to attract some new blood, if that doesn't over complicate things.
You were wonderful! Like, you were really conscientious about gifting and I know when you gifted me I could tell you were excited about the things you were sharing!

Also I think '$10 your first time, $15 after that' could be a good idea, honestly?
