I have the following Steam games to give away:

AaaaaaAAaaaAAAaa
Audiosurf
Defense Gird
Super Meat Boy
Toki Tori


My question for you is how to decide who on DC should get them?

You could offer them up for DC's April Giveaway drawing.

I've thought about doing that.  If I don't decide on a method to determine who gets them sometime soon I'll drop them into the giveaway.

However, I would love to find some kind of hoop to make people jump through to get the games.  :)

Perhaps a contest of some kind?

Oh, or give a license, get a license? Like a flea-market trade away something whatever you call it?

Filling out the DC Giveaway form seems like jumping through a hoop to me. :P
