calling out is not allowed on steamgifts - so I am hoping that is not a user here and you are not implying anything untowards ? your not are you? As that could actually lead to you being repreimanded by the mods here, rather than the other person - hope that helps as info
Also - this section is for bugs and suggestions with regards to steamgifts - of which this point appears to relate to neither - perhaps move to off-topic should you want to keep it open (but I could be wrong and you are suggesting this is a bug with steamgifts - am I ?)

noone is passive-aggressive to you, he just warned you about the calling out rule and wrong category. and you are anyway wrong, if you check the archive, you'll see that not "every single" giveaway was created by that user

thanks for that - appreciated - and what you just linked is exactly why I think we have the no calling out rule - as both points have now been disproven - 0cv and not just that person giving away a game, means this could have just led to a named user being targeted for no reason :( - which in itself could lead to the op being reprimanded by mods and was the reason for my post

that is okay - you edited it to remove the user names, which is probably best - but if you think they are in cahoots with the developers then you yourself have just admitted that you did think something dodgy was going on and you were attempting to bring our attention to it - which is why I was hoping to warn you that this could lead to as suspension for you - people have been suspended for less and so I was hoping to alleviate this potentially happening to you.
again, I appologise if you did not want my warnings - but your subsequent actions suggest that they might have been required - sorry

game gives 0CV so no scheme is obvious at all here - and my questions were not passive aggressive, they were information meant to prevent you from falling into a suspension for potentially calling out - and the other thing was a suggestion to move catagory - which you did (thanks for that)
the fact that you saw it as passive aggressive is not something I can help you with, but does suggest that you might have been tending towards calling out some potential scam - which does not exist and hence my warning
sorry if you felt that my help was not required - I appologise unreservedlly for your misunderstanding :)

It's a game, the person chose to give it away, people chose to enter it as they either wanted it or wanted the +1 - that is what alot of my giveaways could be described as, so I choose not to throw stones in glass houses - as long as people enter these giveaways then I consider it to be acceptable (the recent rule chage by CG allows these 0CV games, so who are we to argue against this newly adopted rule)

We are OK with all the things you can giveaway under site rules, even we are OK with your wins, value of things is on the eye.

we are even OK with your wins
Just because we tolerate it doesn't mean we're ok with it :P

hey can you tell me - with the manhunt game from humble bundle how do I do a region restricted giveaway - sorry to thread hijack as well - do I tick the ones that need to be restricted - or do I tick all of the regions and then untick the regions that are to be restricted thus leaving them out - never actually done one before :P
Comment has been collapsed.
Don't worry :) So far I've only done one region restricted GA myself (Deponia Doomsday when it was brand new and was included in some german gaming magazine) but according to the small explanation on the Create GA page you tick the countries where it CAN be activated ;)

I'm 99,7% positive but you can double check after you have created the GA by clicking on the region restricted icon and the countries listed there should be those you ticked when creating the GA ;)

okay so I unticked the 9 that cannot be included (AU, CU, DE, JP, NZ, SD, SG, SY, YE)

or is that wrong - starting to have brain ache LOL

Looks good. I can't enter due to already having it in my account but normally when a gib is not for my region there is no button at all, where it says "Exists in Account" now.
starting to have brain ache
Yeah, I get that. I hate all this region restriction stuff. Not really looking forward to making one for Civ VI soon :\

Blackscreen Simulator has ** mark and gives 0 CV since December 29, 2017

that was the best bit of investigative work that this game deserves - nice :)

Mhh. I would say at least the user is trying to create giveaways.
Comment has been collapsed.
Game is already free here - giveaway creator won't get any cv.
If ppl still enter giveaways - i believe it should stay, if ppl want to spend 50 points for game worth $0,03 and currently free on shady russian site - let them do this
Comment has been collapsed.
This - so this :) - also damn I have it already :( so I am a saddo who got it :P
Comment has been collapsed.
Honestly it's clearly another one of those money laundering games like that viewpoint one (I think was the title) but if people want to throw points at it I say as long as it's set to 0 cv then I'm happy. If it were still worth so many points then that I would object to.

game isn't even working as intended.
see graphics and colors instead of a perma black screen

I think it should be removed from Steam not steamgifts

There's been a similar case before, it was solved by setting the CV to 0 I think, which sounds like the best option IMO. Removing the game completely punishes collectors, removing just the CV prevents the CV abuse which seems to be the issue here.
Edit: apparently the game already gives no CV here, so... nothing more to do
