roelibex: Btw is sg always so freaking slow to respond to support? My last giveaway ended 5 days ago and went to someone who was not following the rules of the club nor the rules of sg. I still havent seen an answer nor a new winner.

Azrael360: Unfortunately, yes. Usually it takes 1 or 2 weeks, but the last time I contacted them (long ago) I received an answer exactly 40 days later... After that, I never bothered with them again. They have promised that with the new site they should be faster to respond, because of the new implementation to make the work much easier.
I think it's *very* variable. Last time I requested an reroll it took like 15 minutes!

Hello again!

And the fake giveaway for test purposes ended, and it's true: the Steam Key saved while creating the giveaway is available to send it when the giveaway ends, with the option to modify or delete it before sending it to the winner (e-mail edited for privacy reasons): http://www.imagebam.com/image/aad871360085183

Many thanks to all who tried it ^_^. For now, a new real giveaway for the group:

Hey Azrael360, glad the fake giveaway worked for you! Any feedback on the overall creation and sending process? Anything you would change? I'm curious to hear feedback on the beta site from the GOG community, there are usually some good opinions here, and I like to poke my head in from time to time.

These are just my personal opinions, but I really hope more members can take this opportunity to share their opinions with the group and with the people of SteamGifts:

At first with all the new changes I was worried about some functionalities and I was afraid that I wouldn't like it. The test worked for me and everything was okay. The idea of the Key is nice, that would work as a proof in case someone said that didn't receive it or something like that, and the creation of giveaways was slightly changed but nothing notorious. The Whitelist option to add more than one group is also good, that will help in case of sharing private links between friends from different groups to avoid leaks, but I guess this will have to be set as a new rule for private groups of how and for how much this will be tolerated.

So far, all the options are good and better than I thought it would be, but there's something I don't like it: the disappearance of the CV, which worked great for me, because I have used it as an automatic filter to reward people who have made giveaways for others. I have shared my opinion about that here:

http://www.steamsocial.com/discussion/WhUKg/why-erasing-cv-from-sg#sH1X7

For now we will have the Blacklist feature, and now I know how it works (by manually marking an option as blacklisted in each profile of the registered users in the new site), but I'm afraid that it will me overused, or better said, not properly used to be fair for many. I always thought of the CV as an incentive to do giveaways for others instead of just "leeching", now it'll probably be more people without the possibility to enter giveaways, even if they are from the same private groups, for the wrong reasons. I guess in some few cases that can be understandable, but using the CV was easier and automatic, but again, that's just my opinion. So far, the experience with the new site was better than I thought.

Another thing I didn't like, or at least, not 100%, is the notification system. It works great, but the notifications are never cleared after viewing the posts in giveaways, reply messages, "sending" the game, and they have to be cleared manually (marked as read). I would like an "automatic clearance" when you are in the pages where those messages are, or at least, using that system for everything else but the posts of the people; after some time there are too many notifications to mark as read... (maybe an option to receive or not notifications for those?).

Classy, giving away a game that is currently free:

Warlock 2:The Exiled is free on GamersGate.

http://www.gamersgate.co.uk/DD-WL2TE/warlock-2-the-exiled

Just redeem the key and it's yours.

"Unfortunately, we are out of serial keys. The developers have been contacted and we will supply keys as soon as they are delivered to us. We apologize for the inconvenience." That means this is going to last for awhile.
gamersgate is out of keys for that game make sure you have a key before making a giveaway for it and make sure its ok with steam gifts
