Haha, sorry, only for people who go to a certain forum. And thank you for the link, I just made a ticket.

I'd have to say that that would pretty clearly break this rule:
"Don't trade games you win or submit as giveaways."
However, I could see that a mod MIGHT give you a permission for that. idk. seems cool to me, but rules are rules.

I read that, but I wasn't sure if it really counted if you were trading other winners with the knowledge of the giveaway creator, it seems like a pretty hard-to-pin scenario. Thank you for the advice, I appreciate it!

actually now that I thought about it a bit more: If two winners willingly switch their gifts before you deliver them, it would technically not really be trading as in Steam trading system. You'd just switch who to send which gift to. And I think that would be quite fine as long as it's just within your group (and obviously only in a group or private giveaway) and the gifts are approximately the same value (not trading Fortix vs Skyrim).
I still wouldn't recommend doing it without mod's consent, though.

Even easier: if they're gifts in your inventory, just send the gifts to the correct person and have them trade them themselves. Takes the website out of the picture. Only works if you have gift copies in your inventory though, and not gift passes or w/e they're called, obviously.

But THIS exactly DOES break the rule I stated above. The winners are not allowed to trade gifts they win. The scenario I pictured above is one that would abide the rules as best as it gets: The winners don't trade games they won, they just switch their winning ticket with someone elses winning ticket within the same group, with the consent of everyone involved.

Mainly if it's alright with the rules of the site. I currently have 4 gifts running for a steamgroup I administrate, all with the same deadline and being entered by the same (small) group of people. My idea was to organize a chat with the winners once the giveaways end, and see if any of them would want to exchange gifts. Obviously they wouldn't have to participate in this, but I know of at least two of the group who would really prefer one game over the others, and would definitely go for it. (this WOULD mean that some of the winners would claim to get one gift, while in reality they got another)
So just for the sake of not causing a potential issue, is there anything that should stop me from doing something like this?
