Prior to brushing up on the rules, I entered multiple giveaways for the same five games from the previous Humble Weekly. I found out from a quick FAQ read over that to complete the process of receiving the game you have to activate it, and that you can't attempt to win another copy of a game you own, so do I just decline?
Not that I'm going to win anyway, very low esteem for my odds; just a QQ, ignorance is thhe enemy

Once you know you've won a game, maybe after you actually receive it though...., you should go through your entries and remove yourself from any entries for that game.

I know the chances are rare, but I've always been worried about this.

I've won the same game twice within an hour of each other. By the time I had realized it they had both already sent the codes. So the first e-mail I opened I used that code for myself and then contacted the second person and told them that I had just won the game from another person and to request a reroll. I also contacted SG support and told them what was going on.

In the end, the other one rerolled and someone else got the key.

Oh and every I win a game, I always go and remove extra entries for the same game.

Just contact the giveaway maker of one of them, (the second one you won would probably be best) and ask him/her to request a re-roll. Writing something in the comment section of the giveaway saying what happened would also help. The giveaway creator could then point SG support towards your comment at the time of making the request.

I won the same game off the same guy at the same time the other week in 2 different groups I'm in and went through the process.

Just inform one of them that you won the game twice. It's one of the options the giveaway creator can choose when requesting a reroll. It's up to you to decide which one to take, but it's definitely against the rules to accept both.
