Going to keep my points as they are, I think.

Granolaman · 01-26-2018, 10:13 AM

132 on Event[0]

You fool! Each of my points has undergone rigorous training at a secret Himalayan monastery in the art of winning raffles. Your measly 150 stand no chance!

Supernerd · 01-26-2018, 03:20 PM

Like lightning, I strike.

I remove 40 points from Mighty No. 9
I add 40 points to Event[0]

SupahKiven · 01-26-2018, 03:21 PM

hhhhhh...

move 25 points to Shantae

*Palamedes* · 01-26-2018, 05:44 PM

Alright so we had some big bids at the end of the round, let's take a look at the top ones:

Event[0]: 277 (Coldblooded - 105, Granolaman - 132, Supernerd - 40)
Hacknet + Hacknet Labyrinths DLC: 200 (Gatr - 100, ICan'tGiveCredit - 100)
Steamworld Heist: 100 (SupahKiven - 100)
Shantae and the Pirate's Curse: 75 (Druplesnubb - 50, SupahKiven - 25)
Sam & Max: Devil's Playhouse: 65 (spümpkin - 65)
Jotun: 50 (Druplesnubb - 50)
Magicka: 50 (Druplesnubb - 50)
Mighty No. 9: 90 (Supernerd - 50)
Rock of Ages: 50 (Gatr - 50)

First up comes our biggest competition yet, Event[0] has Granolaman trying to fend off the two players he done wronged. Will he succeed or will he face the cold sting of upset?

Second up we have an even match for Hacknet and its DLC. Credit and Gatr have been raising bids here all round, but it all comes to a head now?

Our last match of the round comes down to Druple and a last minute jump by Kiven. Was it worth it?

Finally we wrap up the uncontested wins and bid farewell to two more players!

Here are our remaining titles:

Remaining points:

Round six will end in just over 46 hours.

Druplesnubb · 01-26-2018, 10:56 PM

Druplesnubb · 01-29-2018, 01:04 AM

Did you just change my name into Tiny Echo?

*Palamedes* · 01-29-2018, 03:22 PM

I did, no regrets (it'll get fixed).

Also I apologize, there will be a slight delay. Results will be announced and the new round will start tomorrow.

Translation: I will abuse my mod powers to change your legal name IRL to Tiny Echo, thereby covering up any remaining trace of my mistakes.

*Palamedes* · 01-30-2018, 05:33 AM

Alright, let's get started! Courtesy of Paranoia, every game this round is technically competitive, so we can go through them one at a time and see if there are any crazy upsets because of it.

Our first title is our most competitive for the round, with almost 200 points invested into Mecharium. Let's see if spümpkin and, to a much lesser extent Paranoia, can foil Druplesnubb's move to secure his final games!

Next up comes Druplesnubb, which will be the most one sided battle this whole giveaway. Will it be pulled off or will Tiny Echo make off with an easy victory?

Third up comes War for the Overworld, with chimericWilder making a return after bowing out early in the competition. Will it be a triumphant one?

Fourth comes the first of our 51 point bids, and sees Credit trying to fend off Paranoia this time.

Fifth is Psychonauts, and Gatr is our newest competitor against the eternal underdog.

Sixth comes Credit again, playing things cautiously and splitting his points between two games instead of relying on one final win, though Paranoia might have messed with that...

Seventh comes our second most competitive game of the round, despite only having 51 points to its name.

Finally, Shadow of Mordor rounds off our list despite only having 11 points to its name, strangely enough it gives Paranoia the best odds for his one point thus far. Will it work out?

Remaining games:

Point Totals:

Unfortunately I need to sort out a few issues and won't be able to send out games until tonight or tomorrow morning. Round seven ends in just over 58 hours.

Vancho1 · 01-30-2018, 10:35 AM

Ha ha! Victory is mine!

**Coldblooded** · 01-30-2018, 11:39 AM

100 on Goat Simulator: GOATY

*Palamedes* · 02-02-2018, 02:32 AM

Bidding Tally - Nearing the End Edition

Not too much going on round seven, with only three bids made. Here they are:

Goat Simulator: GOATY: 100 (Coldblooded - 100)
BlazBlue: Chronophantasma Extend: 75 (spümpkin - 75)
Hurtworld: 25 (spümpkin - 25)

Congrats to our winners this round, both of whom are joining the winner's circle with five titles won. Will any others join them or are we facing the end?

It is worth mentioning that Morphblade is back on the list, as Credit chose Shadowrun Returns instead as his fifth title.

Remaining Games:

Remaining Points:

Since there were very few bids this round I'm going to keep the next one going for longer than usual, probably 5 days or so unless a bunch of bids come in. This way anyone left has some time to jump in and win a few more titles before we face a likely bonus round.

chimericWilder · 02-03-2018, 11:51 AM

I'd like to put 45 points up for grabs.

Fight for my amusement, minions! Or, err, i mean. May the lucky be blessed?

Supernerd · 02-03-2018, 12:25 PM

I bid 45 theoretical points on ChimericWilder's 45 points.

Of course theoretical points aren't even a thing. So I am basically making a bid of 0. I guess that bid could technically win if nobody else bids a positive number of their points on it?

While I am at it, I bid zero points on Neon Drive. If eight other games aren't bid on, it would technically be in a tie with all the other games with zero points?

Vancho1 · 02-03-2018, 12:52 PM

Uh, Supernerd, wait for the bonus round.

*Palamedes* · 02-09-2018, 03:00 AM

Bidding Tally - End of the Road Edition

A few of our remaining bids came on in, and with only one player left we'll wrap it up. Let's look at our final games:

Puzzle Agent 2: 20 (Granolaman - 20)
Holy Potatoes! A Weapon Shop?!: 10 (Paranoia - 10)
Killing Floor 2: 10 (Paranoia - 10)
Ziggurat: 10 (Paranoia - 10)

chimericWilder's 45 points - 0 (Supernerd - 0)

Our winners are clear. Granolaman and Paranoia have picked up their last games, and Supernerd has theoretically won theoretical points. With that we can move onto the bonus round!

Points will no longer matter, winning or losing will all be left up to the roll of the dice, and since this giveaway lasted a cool eight rounds, I'm going to make sure that all of those interested leave with just as many games. That's right that means you can win up to three extra games!

Just like last giveaway, all you have to do is PM me a list of games your interested in, with your most desired prize at the top and the rest at the bottom. Be sure to be greedy and include more games than you could actually win, assuming that you want them all of course, because prize allocation is random and if you only list three and other people choose some (or all) of them as well you might lose out.

In five more days I'll be going through the PMs and randomly giving people games from the top of their list, working down based on what's already been won by someone else. Each person will have to win a game before someone else can win their second, and we'll go until every list is empty or everyone's won three games. Whichever comes first.

Of course, chimericWilder has only won three titles in the normal round, so he has until the deadline to choose any two games he might want without competition as well.

Finally, in the spirit of giving I'm going to let anyone else PM me as well as if they've been part of the giveaway all along, though they're going to be limited to three games (not the full eight). If there somehow ends up not being enough to go around preference will be given to original competitors.

Anyways, good luck and thanks for playing!

Remaining Games:

*Palamedes* · 02-22-2018, 04:47 AM

Alright then, huge apologies to everyone for somehow managing to completely lose track of the bonus round, but finally we're here and ready to dish out some extra games!

First off, chimericWilder's come around and claimed two games for himself, Morphblade and Nex Machina. That means for the first time in giveaway history, everyone's walked away with all of their games! Next up, the bonus games!

Round 1:

Round 2:

Round 3:

Aaaand what the hell, since only half the players participated and I vanished for a while we can go a couple more rounds.

Round 4:

Round 5:

We'll call that a wrap then. 86 games later we've reached the end of the road, and as always I hope you've all had a great time and enjoy your prizes. Please let me know if you have any feedback or suggestions, and look forward to seeing you next time!
