Games and gaming communities have been such a huge and pivotal part of my life and have given me so much, it's only fair I give back when I can, especially with the holiday season upon us.
What's the giveaway about? I'm giving away any game of your choosing. Basically and quite literally, any game(s) that you choose and isn't currently free to play and is lower than $100 is yours. You can get multiple cheap games, a $60 game + DLC deluxe deal, a $60 game and a $40 game, etc. Literally any combination of games that vary between $0.01 and $100
What platform? PC, PS4, XB1, Switch, etc. Basically anything that isn't a phone. If it's PC, then I'll probably be able to directly gift the game itself via Steam/Bnet/Origin/Uplay/etc. If it's another platform, I'll send over a $100 gift card.
I'm not entirely sure if region matters when it comes to digital gifting, but please feel free letting me know!
How to enter? Comment a number between 0 and 100,000. I'll randomly choose a number using an RNG website. Please don't mention anything else other than your number, i.e, don't mention the game(s) you want, the platform you're on, or your emotional backstory. All I'm interested in is the number you'll write :)
When does the giveaway end? November 19th at 8:00pm CT.
I'm not really interested in karma, but upvoting for visibility so that more people can get a chance would be appreciated, I'm sure. If there are way too many entrants (let's say, 1k is the threshold) I might pick another winner that will get exactly the same thing.
Good luck everyone!
Edit: Updated timezone for clarification
Edit2: Going to bed with 750+ entries. Geez! At this rate, I'm seriously thinking about picking 2 winners or organizing a similar giveaway soon! A huge thanks for people who upvoted for visibility, but more importantly to people who were kind enough not to downvote!
Edit3: Alright... I woke up to TWO THOUSAND AND SEVEN HUNDRED entrees! That's just insane! You can comment a number a number up to 100,000 (edited from 1609, cause apparently, I was naive to pick such a low number xD). Just to be safe. Thanks for the Platinum stranger <3 I'll be going around making sure no one has a number that's taken already, but if you're new here please also make sure you don't repeat numbers :)
Edit4: Just to be safe, if you've commented in the last 5 hour or so, change your number to a 100,000 limit
Edit5: I did my best to scroll and find duplicates, mainly the predictable ones like 420, 69, 13, etc, but my poor browser can't handle scrolling through all the comments. Please do your part and check if there's any duplicate(s) to your number!
Edit6: A lot of edits have been made :D but I'm trying to keep everyone updated as much as possible, so there's still gonna be at least a couple more. I've spent most of the day trying to prevent duplicate numbers. A couple of people have advised me to use Reddit Raffler. I've never used it before so I idiotically tried to run it with this post's link, but I didn't know it was a 1-time thing per post. TL;DR is: I'm an idiot :D For now, the plan looks like I'm gonna ask the mods to lock the post at the time mentioned above (11/19 - 8pm CT) to prevent further entries, then I'm gonna start filtering out the duplicates; asking them to change their numbers. As soon as everyone does, I'll pick a winner using random.org and notify them. I'll record my screen during the whole thing and upload it for transparency just to avoid any controversy :) I'm still undecided whether I'm gonna pick 1 or 2 winners; I'll keep you updated on that.
Edit7: Alright! The giveaway is officially locked with over 3.5k entries. No further entries can be submitted. Thanks mods for all your help through this <3 I'll now start filtering out the duplicate numbers and notify their OP. If you're notified about changing your number, please do so in 24 hours or your submission will be disqualified. Furthermore; I won't be able to pick 2 winners, but I *will* host a second giveaway identical to this one mid-December. Thanks for your patience everyone, and good luck!
Edit8: Well, 36 hours and 900+ people later, all duplicate numbers OP have been informed. The winner will be drawn out of 2000+ entries on Thursday 5pm CT. Good luck everyone!
Edit9 (and hopefully final one): There were 2263 total entries. The winner was randomly picked and I'm happy to announce that it's u/willymartin99! Congrats! I have recorded my screen and I here's a GIF of it. Better luck next time everyone else! The winner was notified and I'm awaiting the reply. I'd love to thank everyone who helped this Giveaway possible and easier, including u/CobaltSmith, u/YourPapy, and u/Chuckgofer. Just like I mentioned in Edit7, there's a very high possibility I'll host an identical giveaway before Christmas, so be on the lookout :)
