I have noticed how our gaming community or tag isn't all that active! So I thought what better way to start it up with than a fun little giveaway! The game we are giving away today is the popular Blizzard game: Overwatch! for the PC. Here is the gameplay trailer to the game!

Although what started off as just a simple giveaway evolved into a more detailed structure with "Shares" and to eliminate the abuse of bots or duplicate accounts I added some more bonus functionalities to it. But first off, the participation rules.

HOW TO PARTICIPATE

Create a Steemit account (if you don't have one) Comment on this thread with some information about yourself and/or why you would want this giveaway! (Remember what you write here may benefit in your favor later with added features)

These are the only requirements to join the Giveaway!

but this is where it gets exciting, you can earn more "shares" in the giveaway by contributing in different ways, here is how you can aquire more shares:

Linking to your main social platform account gives you 2 extra shares **

Sharing a link to this giveaway on your social platform and linking it here in a comment gives you 2 extra shares

Other users voting up your participation comment gives you extra shares User X with 100 SP votes on your comment: 1 extra share User X with 1000 SP votes on your comment: 1 extra share User X with 10000 SP votes on your comment: 1 extra shares (mind that a 1000 SP user vote gives total 2 shares and 10000 SP gives total of 3 shares)

Continuous participation, in the next giveaway you will start off with 2 extra shares for having participated in this one and not won

Winner can earn 5 extra shares for the next participation if they make a post with some pictures (for example) of them using the giveaway (not the 2 continuous participation shares that all users get)

** Some requirements of your linked social platform to get the extra shares:

Facebook must be over 1 month old and have 30 friends

Instagram must be over 1 month old and have 30 followers

Twitter must be over 1 month old and have 30 followers

Reddit must be over 1 month old and have 100 combined karma

Those are all! I hope you like this idea. I am going to create its own account for further future giveaways, so that the SP accumulated on the giveaways can be withdrawn at some point as well and with that create a bigger weekly giveaway where the divested SP goes directly to giveaways! Just wanted to see the reception it would get from the steemit users first. All SD raised from this giveaway post will go towards future giveaways. (doesn't necessarily always have to be PC games, but they are an easy way to exclude shipping for now)

A list of participating accounts will be held updated in the comments!

The Giveaway timer will run out when this posts payment timer runs out (~12h)

If you don't want the game and thus don't want to participate, feel free to leave some thoughts on the giveaway or better yet if you know how to make it even better! Thanks for reading, good luck to the participants! :)
