I wonder what the chance is of at least one of us 90ish commenters dying before the 5 years is up:o To be unnecessarily grim, assuming we've got quite a decent region and age range (most being in the top 15 SG countries, and age-wise 18-60, most being in the lower middle) it can't be that small can it? I don't know how to go about working this out but I find it weirdly interesting. Could anyone good with math and stats help? There's gotta be some vague answer. P:

well if jbondguy's stats thread for his 1yr wait giveaway showed that only 35 (probably around 40-50 as some would have all the games) of the 180-200 commenters (+the lurkers) remembered and were able to join, probably^^ I can't imagine more than 15 users for this remembering and entering, especially as this is x5 the wait time for seemingly less of a reward. I'm sure this is also enough time for many of the current users to leave the site and move on to other things. A lot of the users that were active 5 years ago are no longer with us, or at least; no where near as active.

i bookmarked jbondguy's thread and in addition put a link with a date in my steam keys text file (which i use daily), and even then i forgot to check at that day. saw it a few days late. but i don't mind, i wouldn't have gone there for the giveaways anyway. just wanted to see what's exactly happening. ^^

Ah. Well you did more than me! If I'm remembering correctly I was dead set on remembering it and put it down in my phones calendar. Which in hindsight was really dumb as I think I ended up using that app for a total span of 2 weeks. P:

This thread is going to be like a time capsule in five years. Only a few of us will still be on the site while all the newcomers read our comments and enter the giveaway :)

Yeah I had this feeling when I read a thread created some years ago.

then maybe 2 big games and bad rats xD not everybody have bad rats ;p
Jokes aside - i wonder how many people will remember about it (including myself). Hell - I wonder if steamgifts will still exist.

Hope to get these games in 5 years(If I'm still alive)
And hey, is there a date to closing the thread or something?

Remind me to reply to myself and ask how I'm doing.
I hope the giveaway is Half Life 3.

You could give away the most amazing game and it still wouldn't be worth remembering something for so long for. Let's see if I'm right in 5 years!
