Yes, that's right, since everyone else and their grandmother has been up to their sleeves in gooey buttery giveaways, it's my turn, and now I'm going to drive you crazy for it. The name of the game is 23, and my birthday runs up on March 4th. That means from the time of this posting, it'll be the 23rd day on the 23rd hour on the 23rd minute on the 23rd second (United States Central Time) when this is posted.
What's at stake? The first 23 posters to this thread will get entered into a giveaway for a $10 GOG game of their choice, name your choice in your post please, you only have 23 hours to get into it! Then those first 23 and the next 207 for a total of 230 people will be entered into a second giveaway for another $10 game of your choice, post your option, as well as one $6 game that's on sale for that weekend (The $6 game has been ejected for comprehensive, and saturation reasons. The two $10 are still available. In addition, if you're not interested in a $10 right now, you can also ask to have a $6 title as well. Basically, anything but Witcher 2 ), for a prize total of roughly $23 USD (Which is now innacurate, holy crap have things slapped around). Yes, I'm going all out with this. If we don't have anywhere near 230 people when we reach March then I'll open up the contest to allow people to double post, with notification in thread.
That's not all though, if you'd got a code you want to give away through this, Steam GOG Gamersgate or so on, then let me know and I'll offer your name and game through the first post as part of the giveaway. If I get exactly 23 games to giveaway including my own, the person to sign up that 23rd code gets the second $10 game automatically, leaving the 230 people in the thread to gamble over the remaining 21 games (Redeemed by joek0, see below for details. Don't worry though, I've decided to add in one more $10 game for the folks past post 23.... and remove the one $6 since it's confusing everyone.). And if you'd like to offer me a gift..... well, I'd appreciate it lots but I'm not expecting it, I might even turn it down! Easier if you don't offer. So come on guys, we've got a hearty 23 days to post, and exactly 23 days from now I'll announce the winners of the giveaway once I figure out how to do the random.org thingy.
Due to the growing size of the list, it's been moved to this page: http://www.gog.com/en/forum/general/the_qc_giveaway_game_list Have a gander and make sure to give a big thanks to all our contributors! Edit: To clarify, the list of games being given is moved there, not the giveaway. This one is the only thread that I'll be accepting entries in.
Edit 2: Okay, since we've got a few double posts, I'm writing up a list of posts that are invalid for the competition, this way I don't get mixed up. Invalid entries are basically all second posts by a user in this thread, except for the lightning round where I open up a second slot for old posters in the start of March, if it doesn't seem like I'll get 230 people, and the posts I myself have made in the thread.
Invalid posts: #1, 58, 59, 60, 63, 64, 70, 72 (replaced by post 75), 74-83, 85, 86, 88, 97, 98, 116, 169, 171, 174-176, 178, 188, 190, 191, 198-200. Current post number required for 230 entries: 265.
Total number of entries: 202 posts - 35 invalid posts = 167 entries.
