A person with a very suspicious account joined an invite only giveaway that they shouldn't have. The giveaway didn't leak, it was more like a loophole in rules - so kicking that one person would be enough. So, my question is - what happens if the creator blacklists that person? Are they kept in the giveaway they already joined?

You can't kick anyone using blacklist, but you can reroll that guy (if he wins) if there are valid reasons for this.

Best case scenario is to recreate the GA and to make the replacement in such a way that the sus account cant access it. Which means either sharing it to a few or in a restricted capacity or a ratio restriction like Sgtools. In any case, since u have them Blacklisted they wont be able to reenter.

I highly doubt u will be able to reroll the current one, since it wasnt leaked. BL-ing the user isnt a valid reason afaik. So if they win, u would be forced to unblock them and gift ๐Ÿ™ˆ

You don't need to unblock/unblacklist them if it's a key, only if it's a steam gift.

Ah ur right, Idk why I imagined being unable to access the GA link as hoster. Thankfully, this scenario has never happened to me so far.๐Ÿคž

Well, they'd either have to be in your whitelist or in the group giveaway to be able to enter.
If they have violated a group rule, then you should be able to re-roll, but if they've technically done nothing wrong... tough luck.

Also, sorry, I'll remove myself.

It's better to delete the giveaway now if you haven't already, so that you can recreate as required.
