Won this game on another site, maker won't re-roll here

If you're concerned, you could always contact support for an official take on the matter.

Well, I don't know. I only have what you're telling us. If all those premises you said are true, you're not breaking any rule, since in theory, you won the game here once, and it's activated on your account.

What makes the difference here is the ethics. You could've hid the fact that you won it in 2 different places, and keep both keys. But you actually asked the creator to do a reroll and he said he won't do it, and told you do whatever you want with the key. So, with that out of the way, since you're sure of the creator's position, and it wasn't 2 wins here, you're free from any punishment, the way I see it. Your profile is clear.

+1 to this also.

The Key you won is the Giveaway you won here. If you did not activate that key you are technically violating the Guidelines of this website. The Key you redeemed was for a different Giveaway won on another website. Just because they are the same game does not mean that you won the same Gift in multiple locations.

I know. My point is that if it wasn't for this whole thread, it wouldn't have been an issue - and by this I mean in essence (since nobody is in practice being harmed, as creator wouldn't reroll).

See luller's reply above and Sinovera's below as well. But again, since he's posted this all here, and he's concerned, he should mark it as not received and move on.

Well, by refusing to reroll the GA he is already making himself look bad. If the Creator does not want to follow the websites rules and ask for rerolls then that is their call. There is no reason for the User to be risking suspension or permanent ban because someone is too lazy to create a ticket and let support do their work. It takes less than 30 seconds to request a reroll here and in my experience is done for you within a matter of hours at the most. WIth it being a GA of more than 50 keys, the keys are automatically distributed to the winners so I don't really see how this is going to cause anyone to invest a lot of time into this just to follow the rules.

TL;DR - Why? Because if you don't you are breaking the rules and can be punished for the violation.

I kinda figured that him starting this thread was letting SG know about it.

No, just being honest.
I would pass the key to a friend after doing everything this site suggests you should do.
I'm not gaining anything from it, giver wont be left with an unclaimed key and support doesnt have to invest time into this minor case (as there no rules in case the giver refuses a reroll).
The dev who sponsored the keys probably prefers an activated key.

He will not get suspended for this. If he didnt make this topic no one ever could prove this.

I never broke any rules on this website, but thats the way I would deal with it. I wouldnt even consider it as breaking the rules, its kinda a grey area imo. If he activated the key he won here there wouldnt be a problem, yet its still the same.

Because he can't activate the actual key that he recieved. And considering how this thread already gathered quite some response it's best to play it safe and involve support before making a decision that could be misinterpreted and lead to a punishment.
