Giving away keys from different bundles? (no keys inside, just a question)

Closed
Apolyon

Hi,
I have a bunch of different keys from Humble Bundle Bundles but there is no full bundle redeemable any more. There are keys from games I already have on Steam. Most of these keys are single game keys, one is for part of a bundle.

My questions now is how to give them away without exploiting the rules or maybe break them?
Is there a way to give them away by Bundle?
Or could I give them away separately without pushing my cv too much?

The goal is to give them away publicly and without a group. I won games here in public giveaways so want to give back the same way.

You can give them away however you want. That's what many people do here.

If they are single keys, you can make a normal giveaways for those games. Thoses games are already marked as bundled, If you notice when you are creating giveaways some games have an asterisk (*) because they were part of bundles before.

Oh, thanks, I noticed the asterisk but how do I do a bundle giveaway?

If you mean how to give away an entire bundle, search for its name in the drop-down list. Not all bundles are available, the ones that aren't can only be given away separately. Also, make sure to create a bundle giveaway only if you're giving the entire bundle, not parts of it.

If you mean how to create a giveaway for something that came from a bundle, these aren't separate from normal giveaways. Everything in the list that has an asterisk is considered a bundle giveaway, regardless of where it actually came from. This is because we can't check where it came from.

By that logic I could only give away separate giveaways because the bundles are all not complete anymore.
But there is one bundle that had three keys in it but they were for bundled parts. Do I do a bundle giveaway for that and say that there are only parts of the bundle available and list the games?

Most people do it this way.

If you state in the description of the giveaway what part of the bundle (which games) you are giving away, there shouldn't be a problem at all.

This raises another question I have: what's better? Do one giveaway for the whole bundle, or do several giveaways for each game in it?

Up to you. Giving away full bundles (the ones available in the drop-down list) counts toward your non-bundle contributions, but their contributor value is low. And make sure that you're giving away the whole bundle, not parts of it.

You technically can't give away Humble games unless you buy them as a gift and giveaway the gift url.

Don't be lame and take money from Humble bundles, even if you don't need the keys.
The good news is, if you buy gift bundles and give the money to charity, you can claim the donations on your taxes.
