orcishgamer: Now is this ticket thing some sort of monetary thing where Steam benefits (i.e. the more games you buy the more you get) or some sort of other reward system (maybe for being active in the forums or games, dunno)?

Foxhack: You got tickets two ways:

The non-game tickets were watching a trailer, playing a demo, linking your Facebook and Youtube profiles, leaving comments on friends' screenshots and profiles, reviewing a game, and I forget what else.

The game tickets were obtained by completing certain objectives on certain games. Said games were usually on sale (or free, in the case of TF2 and Spiral Knights.) In some cases these objectives were pretty easy (do X thing in a certain level.) In others... not so much (Wonderful End of the World had you delete your profile and finish the game in one sitting.)

Some people bought the games on sale to get the tickets... which is kinda silly since some of those games weren't very good, or had been on sale numerous times in the past in the indie packs.
I can't tell if I have a problem with people or Steam on this one... eh screw it. Beer.

Hey, and thanks for the answer.

Foxhack: I remember them keeping the list of winners secret so the winners wouldn't be... um, attacked, so I don't expect a list of winners to be released. Not by them, anyway.

Ah, so they do release their real names. I was thinking of Steam profile / usernames, not real names. Apologies.

The first winner has the same name as one of my classmates in primary school. I wonder if it's the same person.

I haven't won but for some reason in my game library there is a game called 'Sengoku' which isn't actually a real game on steam and it has no picture or anything....Weird.

Also it's installed for some reason and has the 'Purchase' option instead of play, this is weirding me out.

Kinda making me think... Sengoku = Japanese word, my number 1 game on my wishlist is Total War:Shogun 2... Strange.

Personally I did three of the five second ticket options. I linked facebook, posted a screen shot and something else, can't remember. Only reason I did that was to get the free Alien Breed game they were offering. I have trouble passing up easy to obtain free stuff.

Same here. I actually went for 6 tickets to get Alien Breed and the extra maps for Defense Grid. That was a nice bonus!

managed 9 tickets (Alien Breed 2, Magicka Maps, D.W.A.R.F.S. Maps).
But it seems to me, that I did not win as well again :(

Sengoku is IIRC an upcoming game by Paradox Interactive, more or less an adaptation of Crusader Kings to Japan during the Sengoku era.

It's not out yet though, and won't be until September. No idea how it could have gotten onto your account.

There is more info about it here if you want.

... The hell?

There's already a game series with that name - SNK's Sengoku / Sengoku Densho.

The draw is now made, and I didn't win. Well, no news there, I've never won anything in any raffle's I've participated :(

No win for me either; three of the games on my wishlist (Digital Combat Simulator: A-10C Warthog, Runaway: A Twist of Fate, Section 8: Prejudice) don't appear on the list of games selected by the winners.

To be fair, the odds were exceedingly low, even if you had the tickets.

I won. In the sense that we're all winners in our own hearts.
In the sense of getting free games, I got nothing.
