There is something wrong if I won a game and then I make a GA of that game? Also, I have to activate a game when I won it, that's mandatory?

From the FAQ Can I enter a giveaway for a friend?

You should only enter to win giveaways for yourself, and if you win a game, it must be activated and redeemed to the Steam account used during registration. If a friend is interesting in joining giveaways, they'll need to register for their own account.

Yes, if you win a game you must activate it on YOUR account. Otherwise, you might as well not enter the giveaway.

You can make a giveaway of the same game as long as it is another copy you've bought/traded for.

  2. Yes, it's mandatory.

You ahve to activate game you've won on your account. If you do so then you are free to make GA for this game - as long as you buy it yourself, not give away copy you won.

Not activating / regifting won game will get you suspended. Repeated offence may get you permabanned.

yes u have to activate it, else you are risking getting banned!
So only participate in GA's, which you really want to play.
