    Received an email from Eanan this morning to say he already won this. So I have requested a new winner - anyone know how long it takes to get a new winner?

    Eanan will have to confirm with them that he already won it before they'll pick a new winner

    Sorry to bring this up again, but if somebody could clarify I would be very grateful.

    I emailed Eanan and told him he needs to confirm the re-selection of a winner for this gift, but I have not been informed of the new winner. He emailed me a few minutes ago to confirm he has accepted the new winner request. I only see this screen attached. Do I play the waiting game now or have I done something wrong? :P

    Again, I apologise, but I just want to make sure someone gets to play this game :D

    Yeah I think you probably shouldn't have clicked the "I sent this gift" box :P.
    Your probably better off just picking a winner at random and letting steamgifts know about it.

    Ohhhhh that's not good....


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,660 ✭✭✭COYVB


    That happened me before. Send it through steam and it'll work. If it was sent through email it can bring up that error


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 450 ✭✭taytothief


    Well it's no worries really, I have 2, but the one I sent should work because I never used it.... :(

    When I try entering the code myself Zillah it comes up product already owned, and not code already used. Maybe I sent you the wrong code. I'll pm you anyway.

    Ahhh shíte :P Sent Eanan an email about it. We might be able to work something out or worse case scenario; he can raffle it off.

    New winner requests require manual confirmation and triggering by support, I believe. Just hang tight and they'll get around to it.

    I don't want to put a downer on this , but did you not know that Beta access only games are not allowed as giveaways and against the terms of Steamgifts ?

    Betas should be given out in the forums , saves getting into trouble / suspended form Steamgifts :)

    Thank you Falthyron, nice one :)

    Yup, trying to give away an Arma 3 Alpha Lite invite got me a three day ban on there. But it was lifted since I had found about the restriction before the ban, and had bought and sent a full Arma 3 Alpha edition to Nollog instead, so as to honour the giveaway properly.

    Maybe the Steamgifts FAQ should be stickied in the forst post ?

    http://www.steamgifts.com/forum/91wob/faq-and-guidelines

    Everyone should have a read anyway :)

    Sugar sorry about that. I would honour it as a full game but I literally have no money left.

    It seems they search for common terms and then ban even after the giveaway is complete, so I'd recommend removing the giveaway.

    Lol, just lucky I guess. I'm gonna have to do the lotto this week. :p

    Oh no, I hope SteamGifts doesn't go the way GalaGiveaways seems to be going.
    I won 2 giveaways on there and when I went to get the games the users had been banned.
