Please, Alienware, stop with the beta codes. I wish there was a way to blacklist those kind of giveaways, there's a lot of them 😣
What is the problem with 'Free games from Humble Bundle'?
Oh, and it cannot be offtopic, 'cause this whole thread is offtopic.
:unsure: Maybe this means ontopic is offtopic for this thread, mwah, let me think about this. :unsure:

Oh, it's really simple. As far as I remember, there's a limited supply of keys in some Humble Bundle giveaways, it happened to me once that they ran out of keys and never restocked them.

There's always people who use multiple accounts to claim more than one. I'd rather see those keys go to people who really want then.

Offtopic from the current topic? :LOL:

There is a Chrome extension for Indiegala, that allows you to have a lot of things on the giveaways page : load them all in one page (got to use your scroll wheel) and filter the games. It will automatically filter the games you have, and you'll have a button to remove the games you don't want to see.

Yes, I have won 0.02 and 0.04 credits from Picking Saplings. The ones that don't seem to drop higher rewards are Sickling Grass and Hoeing - I have been making one or two attempts on each of them every day trying to test that and in the last four or five months they've never dropped more than 0.01 credits.

I think 0.02 and 0.04 credits can only drop on 99% completed challenges. No "getting closer raises chance of higher reward" in my experience - you're either just one off the target and get a chance of 0.02 or 0.04 drop or you're in the general prize range and you might get 0.01 credits max.
I never seem to have myself raking in 2 or 4 cents from the pickings so I skipped them after awhile. Might be wrong to do that so I shall do them from now on since it's confirmed by you that higher credits are attainable. Shall do that up to 6 or 8 malus otherwise can't even get above 35. I did also notice sicking I don't get anything more than 1 cent.. :unsure:
But I can't exactly remember for Hoeing since I am still working on my techniques to even bother how I am getting :ROFLMAO:

I kind of remember getting 2 cents from plants at 14/16 but just that once as my plants usually either end up with 12/14/16 over 16 seldom does it do 15/16. Otherwise chopping, mining and archers yes definitely more chances on 2 and 4 cents when just 1 away from target! ;)

There is no stopping the hoard of abusers, we just have to be alert when joining giveaways. I hardly win so I just go full challenge mode. Can rake in about 2-3 dollars a month for future games. But as the challenge is very wonky today.. I am not getting any so I might just dump into giveaways for once and pray for the very best :ROFLMAO:

I think free games from Humble Bundle especially those with limited activation period could pose some problems once they expire. For example if anyone still does giveaway for Surviving Mars it probably would no longer activate since the activation period was over (of course unless I misinterpreted it)

The activation period is for you to reveal the key on Humble. If you revealed the key on time it is yours forever.

Yeah, I play the challenges daily, but when I have too much malus to even win galacredit, I use the rest in the giveaways to keep the number below 240 :ROFLMAO:

It's like MadLibrarian said, there's no activation period. Although what happened to me is that they ran out of keys and didn't restocked them before the giveaway ended, so I got nothing.
