Current Events > Steam Gift Contest XV: The results

(+) Yeah! (+)

And it's over! Bit of an awkward ending this time around during New Year's Day, but what can you do.

This time around we got 92 gifts, which is the lowest result ever... but a lot of longtime participants had personal stuff going on, that's why there are two of these per year. And as always, it's the thought and generosity that matters, not the end result. As long as a single gift comes out of this topic, I'm happy.

As always, thank you a lot to the gifters and the people keeping the doc uptodate, without you this wouldn't work.

Now, without further ado, my last result screen. Each giftbox listed below is worth $10, redeemable as Steam gift / Paypal transfer / Amazon gift card / whichever. Just PM me what you want and I'll send it to you; though if you need the gift urgently (to buy something before the Steam sale ends, for example), do state so. You can also keep the gift stored for future use, even if I'm stopping hosting I'll still honor any and all past gifts.

First, the giftester of persons, with 17 gifts... @watertank ! You get 2 giftboxes!

Second place, with 11 gifts... @BMXJouster gets 1 giftbox!

Now for the 10 random giftboxes. I'll be using random.org to pull the results. The resulting number won't necessarily match the line in the Google Doc as I've taken out the Humble Bundle codes.

The lucky winners are:

• Set 9: 4 @Shake_Like_E
• Set 1: 5 @AuthenticZac
• Set 5: 9 @watertank
• Set 6: 28 ... @ArchangelBaruch . Forgot to delete myself. Rerolling...
• Set 6b: 30 @Shake_Like_E ( 2 total)
• Set 8: 36 @watertank
• Set 10: 40 @Archan-GODDAMMIT. brb
• Set 10b: 33 @superstud69x
• Set 3: 46 @BMXJouster
• Set 7: 49 @BMXJouster
• Set 2: 66 @watertank (6 total, with an old one in the doc from like 5 years ago)
• Set 4: 76 @BMXJouster (4 total)

Congratulations to all the lucky winners!

Now it's time for the closing thoughts. I'm leaving after 7 years of organizing the Steam Gift Contest. During this time I've personally given through gifts and prizes north of $3000, and people have gifted in the topics over 10 times that amount.

I'm really satisfied, ya know.

When I first started this I thought it would never work, CE being CE. You proved me wrong. Thanks for all these wonderful years to everyone.

I hope I'll see you around during Summer for Contest XVI, as a participant, if someone wants to take the mantle. I hope this will continue for years to come.

Farewell.

These contests have always been fun to participate in and it's always been nice seeing so much generosity each time.

Thanks for all the years you've put into this. Seven years is an amazing run.

Happy New Year everyone! :D

Once again, thanks for organizing these every year Baruch, it's been a pleasure participating all these years.

Congrats to all the winners!

Happy New Year all, and thanks to both Arch and everyone else who's taken part over the years. The generosity shown during these events, and the discussions that happened during them won't be forgotten.

An end of an era, the beginning of a new one.

Thanks for all the years you've put into this, and the 2 years I've participated

Just wish I could have given something this year. Bad timing for me financially, I'm afraid.

Congrats to all the winners.

To Arch, who has been our host for the last 15 events, as well as all those that have participated over the last 7 years, a huge thank you. Always puts a smile on my face seeing CE come together to share the love. And another thank you, not just for the gifts of games, but also for the knowledge of many of them as well - many gems have been discovered over the years thanks primarily to y'all during these contests.

Happy 2020 to all, and here's to an amazing new decade!
