Wrong games listed in Bundle List screwing my CV

Closed
barokas

When you go to list of bundled games in SG and look under "The Humble Bundle 9", you see 'Trine: Complete', 'Trine Complete Collection' and 'Trine Franchise' listed in the bundle, even though that bundle only included 'Trine 2: Complete Story'. Well, 'Trine: Complete' includes the first 'Trine' as well, which was NOT included in "The Humble Bundle 9", so today they suddenly decided to list that there and now I'm being screwed over by 100 CV?

What can I do to remedy this? Who should I address this mistake to?

I guess the reason why Trine Complete is listed as a bundled game is because all the individual components have been bundled.

Both games have been in previous bundles so the combo of both is also considered a "bundle game".

The combo? But when you gift something in SG it's implied you gift one key?? The only way one could have taken advantage of that separate bundled combo was by buying multiple 'The Humble Frozenbyte Bundle', guessing Trine 2 would eventually be in a bundle and then gift multiple Trine: Complete by giving away both keys separately? How does that even make any sense? Am I not supposed to gift whole franchises now because there might have been separate past bundles which included each separate item?
Am I really in the wrong here or does that not make much sense?

doesn't matter how many keys you give to winner to get all things you gave away

SG allows people to "create" a franchise/bundle giveaway and just give separate keys for each game.

ie: I could make a giveaway for The Hitman Collection and give the winner 4 separate keys; doesn't have to be 1 combined key as long as the winner gets all the items in the "set".

As for your CV, I would suggest checking the giveaway list first and make sure the item doesn't have the Bundle List asterisk (*) next to it before deciding to buy it. If giving a franchise/bundle like this, you may want to also check if all the items in the set have been added to the bundle list individually. If they have, there is a good chance the franchise will also be added.

I did get my CV for about a month, 4 Trine: Completes bought in legitimate Steam sales. Luckily I didn't buy more given they stripped me of it all today...

Since Trine 2 was bundled "recently" after Trine was in IndieGala, I was thinking people would do that.

I'd be more concerned about the one winner who hasn't activated their gift and has it sitting in their inventory still.

EDIT: It says your giveaway was four weeks ago, yet the bundle list shows Trine Complete being added on September 11, 2013.

I'm assuming that was the date of the Humble Bundle, though I created my giveaway before they added 'Trine Complete' in there yesterday/today. Whatever, I'm following ageofarmageddon's advice. I did get those 4 copies 90% off on Steam, I just thought it was a decent investment to make.

Pretty much. Well, I did love playing the Trine franchise, especially the first one.
At least I hope the winners get to enjoy them as much as I did.

I don't know why people consider CV to be an "investment"...

OP had better not give any money to beggars. Otherwise he might ask for a blowjob from the beggar as his CV.
