I've actually been here a week or so. I've entered a couple of giveaways, but I've never actually bothered asking: How does the 'giveaway' part of a giveaway actually work? How do people receive the gifts? Sorry if it's been asked before.

The person giving the gift will use your valid email address or steam trade to get it to you.

The person is chosen randomly from those entered and the person who created it will either add you on Steam and give you the game that way, could be a CD-key, gift or Humble Bundle link, or they will email it to you.

O_O I clicked on the support tab at the top and there was nothing so I thought I should ask. Somehow I missed the sticky on the forums. :P

Don't worry. The fact that you actually tried to find it puts you WAY above a lot of people who join the site.
If you keep an eye on the forum you'll soon realize how 2-3 topics are adressed constantly, every single day. :D

I'll suggest you to install the great "steamgift plus" (<- search for it in the forum): it will help you keep the giveaways organized.

Patience is virtue on this site. Welcome and have fun! :)

The support tab is where you make tickets to send into the Support team for them to answer. That is also where you see their response to your ticket.

The person who is giving it away sees the email address you've provided, and sends it to that email. Alternatively they add you and give you the game.

They either email it to you or add you to give you directly. Keys or steam gifts.

You have made a polite first post, you have read the FAQ, and you have thus far managed to avoid posting one of the "three dreaded topics." You are way ahead of the crowd and well on your way to becoming popular at SteamGifts. Welcome! D

Reputation is tarnished now.. 4 more in one group. At least no public one yet, one with actual low odds.
