Hi DrP! I got your key for GTA Vice City, unfortunately it seems that you gave me a non-ROW key for the game :(
I can't activate it here, I'm from Canada. Your key is probably still working, so I gave it back to you.
You are probably russian with restricted games, do you think you can provide me a ROW version of your giveaway ?
Thanks and have a nice week-end ;)
E.M.Y.T.
PS : I'm a big fan of the NOLF games too, I'me the one who created a thread about it just here, I remember you responded to it ;)
Hey man sorry it's not working, give me a day to check why that is, I'm in EU1 and the key should work for me and I thought EU1 = automatically ROW since it's the highest priced region. Posting that screenshot with the key included is not very wise though, I can ask the support of the store I bought it in to change the region perhaps but I'm not sure they will take the key back if it is used and chances are it might be since you posted it publicly. Let me get back to you on this, I'd rather see everyone happy here but I will need some time depending on how long the store support takes to respond.
Well semi-publicly then, ninjas are everywhere
Anyways I emailed the support, I'll keep you updated, Im not really sure what is up with the key tbh, in my eyes I should have gotten a region-free key, unless I'm ignorant somehow. I guess and hope it's a mistake on their side.
... OH SHIT I get it now: you're right! I though you were talking abour Imgur public board... I completely forgot about the fact that comments from giveaways are open to the ones who reach the point here :'(
Really sorry to add this... I'm a real idiot, completely fooled by the fact we don't use a solid private message system...
It seems that you are the only one notified by my messages from the comments, do you really think people check the old giveaways they don't win ? The probability should be minimal :P
Well thanks again for doing all the efforts, with my mistake I don't deserve your game now :(
99,9% no one saw it but still.
I've got a reply from the store, it seems the game is region-free except for:
Australia
Canada
Germany
Mexico
Puerto Rico
United States
Sorry about this, I've never heard of this before, I'm asking them if they also sell keys which can be activated in Canada then I'll just buy another one for you.
Yeah listen, no problem for me. It's a game I really wanted to have in my library but I really don't want you to loose more of your money just for me ;)
This is my suggestion: ask support if you can reroll your giveaway by telling them it's a restricted key for non-America resident and see what they think about it. Maybe the new winner will have the opportunity to activate the key if not living in one of these regions.
Don't bother yourself with this giveaway. Have a nice day and good luck again at SG.com
Oh cool! You remembered :)
Thank you very very much for your patience, I really wasn't expecting that you'll wait so long for a discount.
Have a nice day, good luck too at SG.com and see ya around!
Okay so today I got a reply again, the store I bought it in does not have the rights to sell a Canadian version.
If it's possible we could leave the feedback part open for now and I can buy you the game when it's on sale again because I can't get it at full price, moreover, that would be a waste of money since it has been on sale before and will be every now and then, sorry it went like this I never heard of these kind of region-blocks before, I'll keep on eye on it in the future.

I didn't publish the image publicly, but if it does bother you I already deleted it :P
It was just a proof of the message sent by my Steam account.
Sorry about the situation so, I though the same as you : according to SteamDB only the Russians seem to have a restriction :(
