Why can't I enter Dota 2 giveaway?

Closed

K so well, I downloaded Dota 2 the spectator client and now I cant enter any of the dota 2 giveaways that are giving away the beta keys. I REALLY want to at least be able to enter them and have a chance. I keep force syncing my account to see if Dota 2 will disappear from my account games if I just uninstall but it doesnt work. PLEASE HELP!! D:

EDIT: I already entered a few BEFORE I had installed the spectator client so I have entered a few. BUT, if I remove my entry, I cannot replace it again. wtf.

Still appears on your game list as Dota 2 so you won't be able to. It's on steam's side, as long as it's on your games list, that will happen.

The fact that they actually made a spectator client is dumb. Well, only reason I'm saying this is because I can't get into the real one. D: Whyyyyy...

If you want to watch this boring game, then you can watch it on streams and not in the Gameclient. I saw a Stream of it on TeamLiquid.

Contact Steam support about it. Ask them to either change the spectator client to a different AppID or remove it from your account. If they do the latter, they'll need to repeat it for everyone using Steamgifts.
