There were only 1 entry , maybe thats the reason?

It is. You need at least two participants to make it count.

I don't think posting this was the brightest idea.

There are legitimate one entry giveaways you know? Your avatar seems more fishy.

If they looked at his profile they would see the only group he is in is an actual giveaway group.

I don't think posting your reply without even investigating one bit was the brightest idea.

So basically another way of saying that you wanted to cheat the system

Since the comment I replied to was deleted, I'll attach this here instead. Honestly, I'm more inclined to suspend anyone claiming it's a fake giveaway with no other basis but it ended with one entry. That's, frankly, ridiculously fucking rude and stupid of you. If it was the same group that most of OP's wins came from, then it has seventy-two members and is highly unlikely to be a fake.

No calling out. Please read the FAQ.

So basically you came to that conclusion without looking into things such as whether the OP is in a 1 or 2 person group?

I just noticed this document is very important, especially if you are newbie of this site. There are common mistakes rookies do...

Last time I read the FAQ all the way through, there wasn't anything about this, so I'm not sure how this is relevant?

Based on what? Did you even look into the group the OP is in?

SG doesn't award contributor points for giveaways that end with only 1 entry. This is to combat scammers that try to cheat the system by making a private giveaway for a high value game, where either a friend enters or the giveaway creator enters themselves with a 2nd account or whatnot. I've also encountered the same problem as you where a 2 day group giveaway I created (that has 70+ members) ended with only 1 entry. I've spoken to support to see if they could manually enter contributor points to legitimate 1 entry giveaways but since mine was the first suggestion of the sort, I'm not sure if and when it would come into fruition.

For those of you who automatically assume that the OP's group giveaway is a scam or seems fishy could do a little work by seeing what groups the OP is in (1 group with 72 members). This would save you folks some time in replying with your false assumptions and resulting embarrassment.

I'm in a closed Steam group, and we keep a ratio for people not enter all the giveaways. You can win three games if you gifted one. Because this, and because we are a small group, is very often giveaways end with 1 entry. It's a pity the system thinks that we are scamming the site.

I assumed from not doing any background stuff that it was someone trying to cheat... But I read the thread before posting xD.

If the OP had added details about his groups to the post, people may not have been so quick to call him/her as a cheater :/

I didn't say he had to, only that if he had, some of the snide comments on here could have been avoided.

Yeah that's stupid. I had 50$ worth of giveaway that had only one entry...
And he never played the game thus breaking my heart. :'(
