Thnx for the helpful info Yirg.
It would be nice if they made some sort of dm/pm system where winners and giveaway creators could message one another, instead of trying to reach out through steam or email. This would be much more useful to creators as commenting on our giveaway has no real way of contacting the winner if they don't supply feedback.
This would also create a helpful log for support to view if necessary.
My thoughts are that the messaging system works only per giveaway, a private thread between the winner and creator if you will. It can then be closed once a certain requirement is met, for example key marked as received.
If there is already an easier alternative to making contact with winners, please let me know.

I think any new member should refer here so they have a clue on what to do!

If someone has a multiple win then in most of those cases if that person really wants to solve this then it shouldn't be a problem.

Update: Due to recent site changes it is no longer needed to perform extra steps to avoid winning the same game multiple times. However, many users still have multiple wins in their account, so the appendix below is still relevant.
If you win the same game multiple times and mark the wins as received, you are breaking the rule of this site and are very likely to get a suspension (and if you still continue to do it, get a permanent suspension). You will also be blocked from entering most SGTools-protected giveaways, so better avoid this unpleasant situation. Here's how:1. Activate the first win, and (assuming success) mark as Received2. Add a comment in the second win: "I won this game from another giveaway. Please request a new winner. Thanks!"3. Important: Do not mark the second giveaway as Received or as Not Received. After requesting the giveaway creator to reroll, your part is done. Just forget about it, and of course do not re-gift the key to anyone else and do not activate it on another account. For all intent it's not yours to use and should be assigned a new winner. If the giveaway creator didn't respond in a timely manner you may also mark as Not Received, but leaving giveaway feedback untouched is acceptable too. More info here.4. To reduce the chances of multiple wins in general, after winning, resync your account (this script can automate this after you mark as received), go over your entries to other giveaways of the game you just won and remove them manually.Appendix A - How to fix multiple wins
If you previously won the same game multiple times and already marked the wins as received, it's too late to follow the process above. There are however things you can still do to fix the situation. Getting rid of multiple wins is not easy, as it requires some co-operation from at least one of the GA creators. It can be difficult to get co-operation if they're not active on this site any more, or if the they gave a large number of keys. Still, the following procedure is worth a shot:
Good luck!EndedComment has been collapsed.
