Will SG gods be mad at me?
yes you can, but it'll start showing up as "not activated" everywhere afterwards

You cannot. It will be considered an unactivated win. I posted about cleaning up my library a while back and the most common response was to not remove any games I had won here. I'd just hide the game

No disrespect in that... most of the people give away mostly unwanted or straight-out bad games, no need to treat them like treasure. Especially if you need to play it to realize it's not for you, or even bad. Based on that thought I shouldn't write negative reviews about any game won on SG because it would be disrespectful to the creator.

If you were talking about removing previously as well, then I agree 100%. It's a lot of problem for OP if he removes, it's a lot of problem for the creator to reroll, and people better learn with their mistakes, especially if it's just a bad game :)

I thought your main problem was calling a game bad - I've seen some people flip out in the topic about worst won games, because they thought everyone is disrespectful to the creators - even the guys who knew the game bad, wanted to win it, and said yap, it was bad :D

Well, it's not like I'm going to forget about them. I have special place for won games in my Steam categories and they have priority, but I have yet to finish games which I am currently playing. Besides, it's not easy task to get them with my 500kb/s internet... So, just taking my time. Whole different situation.

Right click (game name) --> Set Categories --> Hide this game in my library (checked)
Walla.

I swear, i don't understand the permanent removal of a game.
Mine are not even hidden, let alone removed.

Nice solution! I knew you mods were good for something.

I'm going to add my perspective to that:
I also recommend giving the GA creator an extra key as a courtesy for them having to deal with the hassle of dealing with an old giveaway after so long (assuming the win wasn't recent). If the GA was for an unbundled game that has since become bundled, you may have to make up for that difference as well, especially if the original giveaway was one with few entries. Alternatively, if the game was a junk bundle game, you could probably convince the GA creator to agree-to-delete just by giving them a key for a bundle game of higher CV value.

I really don't understand the mindset; just ignore it. Why would you need to remove that permenantly?
Comment has been collapsed.
No it won't as we found out recently.
I still wouldn't recommend it.

I'm not sure what you're referencing, but even when I joined the site a year ago and all other negative forum behaviors (that've since been cracked down more) were shamelessly allowed to run rampant, direct death wishes were the one thing that staff did suspend for.

I've entered two games now that looked great at the time and had decent reviews, and ended up getting slammed by subsequent reviews in ways that make it clear they're not actually worth playing. If you include games that got slammed but I'm still willing to give a shot (because the complaints don't seem like they'd bother me as much as they did the reviewers), that's 4 games.
And that all with me always making sure I still want a game both before entering for it and before activating it after I win it.
Sometimes you simply make errors in judgement, or work off of faulty information. Some games on Steam have even been patched into a broken state and then abandoned. Sometimes you learn a negative aspect of the developer in question after the fact, and feel shamed to have their products in your library.
There's plenty of reasons you may want to remove a won game that aren't based in "having entered for a game you don't like".

You can hide games in your steam library. Right click > Set Categories > Check the box to "Hide this game in my library"

You have an interesting giveaways ratio. Giveaways count are exactly 1:1, and your value is extremely similar. Neat.

Fallen Enchantress is back on steam as a standalone purchase. You've made 5 giveaways for it, each used to give you 40 CV, as Fallen Enchantress was, for a while, only available in a collection together with its sequel. Now it's back, so now the steam API reports a value of $10.
Comment has been collapsed.
Well, I found one culprit (don't worry, that will fix itself). I don't know exactly when Fallen Enchantress was returned, but for a while, you did at least get more CV from it than you do now.

I win so few things in life, that when I win a game here I'm estastic. It doesn't matter if it's not good, I won it. I try to play all the games I win and have found some good and some not so good. Since I'm on SS (social security) and have absolutely no extra money for things like games, I have come to rely on you lovely people who donate good (and sometimes not so good games). So bless all of you! Thanks.

Some time ago I've won a crappy game on SG and now I want to remove it permanently from my account. Can I do that?
