I got the code in the mail and now it says I can't use it because it isn't available in my country. Since when are there games not available in the US?

Also, how do you deal with this? I mean, I can't use the code. So do i have to hit the received button anyway?

"Do not submit CD-keys or Steam gifts that have regional restrictions, or those that require VPN activation or methods to bypass regional restrictions."
It's in the rules. You should contact the GA creator for a non region restricted key.

If you hit the receive button you'll be suspended for not activating the key.

Well, should I wait the full 7 days for him to respond or just go ahead and hit not received?

Contact him and ask for a non restricted key and then wait to see if he sends one. If not then mark as not received.

You can't mark as not recieved until seven days have passed.

System will not allow you to mark it as not received. You have to wait for 7 days (from the moment the giveaway ended), and then you can mark it as not received.
