EA Play and Giveaways

Probably due to how the subscription license works. Steam must think you have them

Hey,

Looks like subscriptions are treated just like free weekends are. You don't own license for a game and it will be removed from your account after x time, but Steam via SteamAPI reports you own it like any other game. Also you may not "own" them, but you can still play them for certain time.

Only solution will be the same as in case of free weekends - you need to wait till your subscription runs out before you can enter giveaways. It's not possible to manually remove games synced with SG database. And as EA Play is a new thing I don't know how the activation of a game (that is part of the subscription) would look like.

(Similar case is when users own 1st free episode of Hitman. Steam reports they own the whole game. So only way for them to enter in GAs is to remove Hitmon free episodes from their Steam account).
