    Update this morning - a mod unbanned me "pending review from an admin". So watch this space I suppose. I'll still ask you to gift the game if you don't mind Axwell? Just in case the ban is upheld in the middle of the giveaway.

    Hopefully the mods will see sense and remove your ban permanently.

    It's not like you were entering giveaways with multiple accounts .

    You even explained why you had two accounts ( and asked for one of them to be deleted )

    :)

    You've also wrongly chosen above average, when you have the below average key.

    Thats the one cheers.

    I paid the above average price though, I'm not sure if the extra games came with only above or both.

    Check the humble bundle link. If it's above average, there's two keys available. So there should also be Saints Row 2, Saints Row 3, Dead Island and the SR3 DLC set.

    I've used the other keys though, I just don't want Metro 2033, Risen, and Sacred Citadel. They are all in one key and that's what I want to give away.

    Then that's still not what's described on the giveaway.

    I only paid the minimum $1 (for two sets) and got two sets of keys (ie the new Metro one for both)

    There's a set C now that's also being given. The one with Metro and the others is set C. But he chose the above average option which means set A and B as well.

    As Spear says ,

    You have incorrectly listed your giveaway as "Humble Deep Silver Bundle (Above Average) "

    You should delete that giveaway and make a new one for " Humble Deep Silver Bundle (Below Average) "


    It doesn't matter that you paid the above average price - you are only giving away the below average bundle of games .

    The games given away must match the giveaway exactly ( Risk of Steamgifts bans for the giveaway creator and winner )

    OK, I've deleted the giveaway. I thought I could just put in the description that I only had the three games.

    I still can't see this option on the drop down on the steamgifts website. Will it be added later or something? Can I not give away just part of the bundle?

    You can't give away part of a bundle . The games you are trying to give away don't match any of the Deep Silver giveaway options .


    If the games you are giving away don't match the bundle description exactly , you risk being banned / suspended from Steamgifts .



    There are three options for giving away the Humble Deep Silver Bundle -

    1-
    Below average , includes Saints Row 2 , Saints Row 3 , Risen 2 Dark Waters and Sacred 2 Gold .

    2-
    Above Average , includes all the above PLUS Metro , Dead Island , Risen 1 ,Sacred Citadel and SR3 DLC package .

    3-
    Above Average w/Riptide .
    This includes all games from the bundle including Dead Island Riptide .


    If the games you are giving away don't match the games available in the dropdown on Steamgifts exactly , it can't be given away .


    Hope this helps :)

    I've the three newly added games from the humble bundle too. I already have Metro, and have no real interest in Risen, and Sacred Citadel. Would it be ok to put that up as one of the games and just send the key for the three..? or is that also against the rules?

    It might be against SteamGifts rules but I imagine it'll be fine. If anyone complains about getting extra games they're an idiot.

    Surely the gaming freebie thread should be used for anything than doesn't comply with the Steamgifts rules ?

    I for one, won't be putting it on the freebie tread. Most of the people on that seem to be just chancing their arm after googling "free steam games" and have no interest in giving back, or even posting on boards. If enough people say no, I won't post it at all


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,467 ✭✭✭McSasquatch


    Right, so here's my last giveaway for now. It was graciously created by Axwell on my behalf, so big thanks go to him. It has a $20 contributor requirement. Hopefully it will go to a deserving fan.

    I'd like to think folks in this group won't go reporting members to steamgifts if they make a give away and fully explain what they're giving away. Pretty crappy thing to do tbh.
