I'll take Grim Dawn and...

You know what? I want to Spread the Love, so in the name of love, give my second choice to someone who submitted one review over the course of this entire event (the first and second weeks). I feel like it means more that a poor man should give a little than a rich man should give a lot and I've absolutely flooded the queue with reviews, soo...

Give it to someone who put their faith in the possibility that they might be chosen; someone who thought "well, it's not much, but you never know." And if that person wanted Grim Dawn, give it to them first and I'll make a different choice.

I love you all and thank you for giving me this opportunity to give back. =D
Based on that set of criteria, I randomly chose... todpole
Wow, I COMPLETELY .. ok, almost missed this!
Well, now that's even more motivation haha.

Good job kenton sir~ loving the theme
The final week's theme for Spread the Love is (obviously) Vegemite.

Next year (if I do another review jam) I will get on it sooner so that we have more than 4 weeks.
Remember when my review jams generated real excitement?

I got plenty excited about the makerscore.
If one person is excited about it, then that's enough for me.
i'm always excited for any review event since that's the only event i can seem to participate in so yeah.
I used to be excited. But then life threw a curveball at me that I simply couldn’t avoid...

Seriously, I would have usually participated in this, but this summer I’ve been real busy as of late so I couldn’t do it this time around. Besides, I never win any of the raffles for any of the steam games here unless the odds are like 100 - 1 like it was for Reviewrim that one time I DID manage to win anything, lol.

So the lesson for me here is that unless the odds are high as shit to win, don't bother.

this event have a high odds of winning though.
first week: 2/17 winning chance - 11%
second week: 2/15 winning chance - 13%

and that's if you only submit one review. if you submitted more than one, you can get a higher chance.
Yeah, but even with favorable odds like that I’ll probably still end up losing. It’s fate, I tell you.

But thanks for trying to cheer me up a bit, though.
