Current status: https://xyzgiveaways.com/Status

As you may know, sometimes I send /u/EdenSB money and he hosts giveaways with it. I do this, because he's really good at picking winners. However, sometimes you really want a game and he just doesn't pick you. I built this to help with that. :)

It works like this:

1. You post your relevant ID in this thread.
2. You go to https://xyzgiveaways.com/
3. You build a castle. At first it will probably be really confusing, but with a little bit of practice you can build a small castle in a couple of minutes.
4. When you feel that your castle is done, you archive it. You can then immediately start building a new castle if you feel like it.
5. As soon as possible, my girlfriend will rate your archived castle, giving it 0 or more stars.
6. Each star you have will be worth an amount of money.

You spend your money in /u/EdenSB's giveaway threads like this:

If you have the full amount required:

Hi! I have €60 from Castles and would like to buy Cyberpunk 2077. [Remember to include your SteamID or other relevant ID.]

Important: Since you have the full amount, you are guaranteed to win. However, /u/EdenSB is still allowed to say no for any reason, such as if he isn't comfortable buying from a certain site or if he feels that what you're asking of him is too much work. In that case, you will have to buy something else. Check his threads for information about what you can and can't get and also things to be aware of with prices.

If you don't have the full amount required:

Hi! I have €10 from Castles and would like Minecraft, which costs €15. [Remember to include your SteamID or other relevant ID.] Here's my request: I really want Minecraft, because...

In this case /u/EdenSB will decide whether to gift you the remaining amount and buy you the game.

Important: You have to put how much money you already have AND how much you believe the full price is.

Questions and answers:

"How much will each star be worth?"

That depends on how many my girlfriend gives out. I don't know how generous she will be and so each time she gives out stars, the value of stars will go down, while the rest of the time it will increase.

"I need a lot of stars to get €80!"

It doesn't matter. Every single star you get will help to show /u/EdenSB a little more how much you want your game.

"What kind of castles does your girlfriend like?"

I have no idea. I guess that makes it a puzzle in a way. :)
