Sorry if i have any writing error as in this time my laptop broke, i just won a Saints Row game, but it is not redeemable on mu country and the giveaway DID NOT have any restrictions so i thought i could redeem if i won it, well, now in awaiting yhe giveaway's creator to reroll/delte it so i could atleast enter on the right giveaways to get a key that i could redeem in my country. So does anyone know what can i do meanwhile i wait for the GAs creator to delete it/reroll?

Edit: i just did what i think i can ti atleast be able to enter another GA, cuz i passed through something similar when i made my milk in a bag of milk blah blah blah GA even though i did what i could to be sorry to thw winner as i wasnt able to gift him and tried to gift him the game as fast as i could when i got the notification he won, but hey! It will just be a past thing, and i hope i win another giveaway with peace and a good game, i asked for the giveaway deletion so i could atleast enter another ga that can gift me the game if i win, i just hope that the guy will see in time and delete it. Thanks for yalls opinions!

Edit 2: i am sad now, this guy has seen me BEGGING for the deletion of the giveaway and did NOTHING if you are reading this "yo bbg love you wanna e sex later?" fuck you sincerely, u are blacklisted from my account, u are an asshole for seeing my comments and doing NOTHING, ik that its only a game but u are an asshole for seeing what i did and still doing nothing, i hope steamgifts does something o atleast he gives me a idk another game but for meanwhile i will just be sad abt losing a game i though i had won. I hope this idk south korean guy sees this and finally delete it so i can finally go and try another giveaway if it still exists one compatible with my region (LATAM) as the only one i know is now over. even though i hoped for a better update this is the only one at this time,goodbye

Why would they buy it, if it's creator's fault.

Even if most users will take this as a joke, someone may actually follow such advice 😐

Someone from Steam Gifts? I think not. The last thing that would actually happen is a SGer buying it on Steam when they can get it here, from Humble Choice, from bundle splits, etc...

Although...it is actually on sale on Steam currently, lol.

My laptop that i have now suffers playing Limbo at 12 fps so yea i think it doesnt quite handle it unless i delete all textures and do hardcore optimization. My future computer on the other hand i think will handle it at its lowest. i think in dollars its like 300 dolars or smth. living in brazil its hard (if u are talking abt the new one, but i think the original 2 games it can run smoothly)

Well, I guess, you could try to speed things up by creating yourself a ticket to select a new winner. Otherwise not much to do, except entering GAs for different games or creating your own GAs. Cheers :)

Obviously, but probably he could still create a ticket in Request New Winner category by pasting GAs link there, choosing Other reason and explaining the situation.

The creator could produce a working key, there is a reason they are the one who needs to open a ticket. A giveaway getting randomly rerolled because the winner decided, fully omitting the creator from the decision? That's just chaos

No. This is not how things are handled. They actually cannot even be handled like that. There's basically no reason for a winner to ever open a ticket - unless their win was revoked and feedback needs to be changed. Only the creator can open a ticket to delete a giveaway or request a new winner. And the latter can't be done if the giveaway they created wasn't properly region restricted while the gift is region restricted. So if the creator of the giveaway cannot provide a key that can be redeemed by the winner in their region then deletion is the only option IF the winner consents (besides accepting a "Not Received" feedback).
I can only recommend to read the FAQ and Guidelines to learn about the (rules and) proceedings of Steamgiffs where things like these and more are explained.

Other than what the mods said, this also makes useless tickets if you manage to go through the filters somehow, so it only makes the ticket queue worse than it already is. It's nice that you try to speed things up but by making an extra ticket that makes 2 tickets someone now has to go through.

Like others said, it's not their GA. It's impossible to manually re-roll GA, it must be started by the creator.

Yes, Saint's Row is heavily restricted. See here

When you enter a giveaway,and particularly when there are tons popping at the same time , it's better to check if this is not in a restriced bundle. Normallly the gifter should verify but it's not always the case.

You'll have to wait for the GA creator to release you from it or you'll be punished on your automatic reputation here.

How will the winner be punished, when creator did not set up region locks properly? If creator doesn't deliver a key that can be activated in winner region, they will mark as Not Received after 7 days. No reputation hit due to that for the winner, just the creator.

Winner marks it as received and then finds out later that it's region locked and therefore is locked out of certain giveaways afterwards.

First time here?

I can imagine accidentaly clicking recieved, but sounds not possible you won't find out soon. If you don't want be blocked from giveaways for that game, I assume you won't wait x days if you can redeem it.

I think you can just click received again and it will uncheck it, in fact I just tried it you can. You can also wait 7 days? and click not received.

All you can do is write a comment in the giveaway that you are okay with reroll/delete... To help support resolve it quicker, that's it.

Not possible to re-roll GA with wrong region locks. New user is as likely to not be able to activate the game.

Reroll will not be granted, because the next winner could also be in a region where the gift can not be redeemed. The giveaway can be deleted if you agree, but in a case like this you are losing the chance to win other giveaways for this game.

This is during the time when tons of giveaways for this game are being made because it was bundled so recently. You are losing a lot of opportunities because the giveaway creator did not properly set up the region restrictions for the giveaway. This is one of the few times I recommend NOT agreeing to allow the giveaway creator to delete the giveaway. They should be held responsible and either get you a copy of Saints Row that CAN be redeemed in your region, or they should be awarded a "Not Received" feedback if they fail to do so.

That's the issue in how SG is set up currently. Before, winner could leave negative feedback immediately, if they did not get key immediately. Which obviously lead to many problems, and so we get 7 day cooldown before negative feedback can be given.

But then the problem with region locked and duplicate keys exploded, due to gray market and devs cracking down on region trading. So winners are locked with either leave correct Not Received feedback to show that creator did not check region locks, or agree to deletion to be able to enter GAs again. So even when I don't like deletions in such situations, the fact that most GAs will be over in 7 days makes users "doing the right thing" look like martyrs.

Just replying, so winners understand they will be locked from entering more GAs of the won game, for 7 days "if they do the right thing". Don't want to start off-topic discussion 🙇‍♀️

If the winner agrees to allow deletion, they are punished by missing giveaways and the giveaway creator gets no punishment at all even though it's their fault. And yes, the winner will miss more giveaways for the won game if they wait 7 days to give the not received feedback. If the giveaway creator does the right thing the winner wouldn't need to enter more giveaways of the won game.

What's that attitude? You don't go around and fuck other people or call them asshole. Is this considered calling out, because name included?
Also, deletion ticket takes time to resolve.

Ya know, you might actually be a first for me. I don't believe I've ever commented when I blacklist someone!
Unfortunately, that's the upside of things.

The downside is that second edit is pure cringe, and you're going to end up suspended.

Ik, only made that to see if i can finally get the guy to see it cuz he can ignore his notifications, but not the thread on the site

Edit: its not because i said that u r supposed to remove my blacklist and anyone that blacklisted me too, u can keep it if u want as i know my action have consequences,but, blacklists are kinda ineffective as its just a way to block someone of getting on your giveaway and you from getting on said person giveaways l, its a lose lose situation depending on whoever you are blacklisting, you are just clicking a button on a silly forum and giveaway website, it doesnt make you more or less good of a person. All that said.my honest opinion.CUCUMBER SOLOS POTATO!

I value my peace of mind far more than I do any number of giveaways.
Blacklisting you is a guarantee I shall never have to deal with you as a winner.

It's really that simple.

Now there's no way I'd ever suggest the giveaway creator do something like this, but he could wait 6 days, 23 hours, and 59 minutes before sending the deletion request. But no, that's just cruel and unusual, and I would never suggest that after you made a thread all about him and called him an asshole. ;)

Remember - being angry is punishing yourself for somebody else behaviour.
Just read what support members wrote.

And either remove that user name from Edit2 to not be suspended for calling out or remove whole edit2 because it's pure cringe.
Shit happens and it's quite bad that you encountered that kind of stuff on you first month here, but just move on. More great GA and events await :)

At this point I'd like to ask you to close this post.
You have now been directly calling out the creator of the giveaway and even though you've removed their name from EDIT 2 you still are calling them out since the information you give basically let's everyone know who you are talking about. This is against the sites rules.
While I understand your frustration, making a rage post like this and keep adding to it by making edit after edit

cuz its kinda a update+ gains traction for being basically a rage bait.

is not how things are handled on Steamgifts, especially not even a day after the giveaway has ended.

Just like you claim the creator for sure has seen your comments you for sure have seen our (support) replies to this topic where we outlined how things are done.
Since you are on Steamgifts only for a month I would suggest to read the FAQ and Guidelines in order to familiarize yourself with the rules and proceedings of Steamgifts.
