Some wins will probably be delivered more slowly because of people checking with support to see if you've gotten your suspension yet. And it is a bad look generally because deleting stuff someone was kind enough to give to you is rude.

I think justifying this makes you look like a dick enough as you've probably noticed. People who give away stuff here want their games to be appreciated, no one wants a winner who thinks the games are trash and wants to delete them off their accounts. Based on what you've said here I wouldn't want you to enter and win stuff I give away because I would rather have a winner who treats their wins with care.
I don't want to be the one who is rude here, but I stumble across so many rule breakers when I do public giveaways and I always get disappointed when I have to give a game to someone who doesn't activate their wins/deletes them. It's a bit saddening that more people want to follow that way.

No worries. I think a lot of people can relate to entering whatever in the beginning. I have some games that I've tried and really hated that I put in a custom category called "not playing" if you're like me and doesn't like hiding games completely.

If you want to be really rude toward people who'd created GAs you decided to enter & you don't care about stuff like suspensions, then sure, go ahead.

This!
It's not worth the headache to delete them. If you hide from your library, you won't have to look at them.

Deleting something you won here is not only violation of the site rules (as I can understand you don't care about it), but also a dick move. I mean, it's a disrespect to the one who gifted you this game, and disrespect to other users who participated in it and wanted to win it. Delete it if you want, but don't forget that you insulted a shit ton of people by this.

Well, it will look as not activated games. If someone will report you - you will get suspended for sure. And if you remove enough games - suspension will be permanent.

Well, you could just hide the games in your library, no need to go nuclear on them.
If you really can't stand the idea of cluttering your library with stuff you don't want, hidden or not, then you can just stop caring, delete those wins, eat the inevitable suspension (which might even be permanent, at staff's discretion), and call it a day.
Pretty rude, both to the giveaway creators, kind enough to gift them to you, and to the other entries, since you denied their chances to win them.
Especially if they're actually good games that just aren't your cup of tea, rather than random shovelware. That's literally spitting on their faces.
After the suspension is over, the only tangible consequence will be the inability to pass most SGTools filters.
You'll also be getting a lot of blacklists - you're likely getting some already, just for stating your intention of deleting wins.
The "ethically correct" alternative is to get extra copies of the specific games, give them back to the creators, and let them reroll or delete the giveaways.
This way, you're effectively "resetting" those giveaways. Not as good as not entering them in the first place if you don't want them, but close enough.
However, this option could be unaivalable if the giveaway creators are offline - and some have been offline for periods ranging from 2 weeks to 2 years.
Not to mention it'd be outright impractical for multi-copy giveaways, reroll would be the only option in that case, and a pretty iffy one after so long.
Lastly, if you don't care about the site anymore, you could just delete the account.

You're right about blacklisting. I wouldn't want someone who doesn't want to keep won games in their library entering my giveaways.

Just hide the games like Oni suggested. In the library right click on the game -> manage -> hide this game (I'm not using english in the steam client so the names may vary). If you don't care about steamgifts any more you can also delete your SG account and after a year you're free to rejoin if want again.

When you delete a game that you won on SG, the system doesn't know if the giver didn't gift the game or if the receiver just deleted it. If you remove a game that you won, you are punishing the giver in order to feel better about your library--you are cheating them out of the CV they got when you clicked the "received" button when they did nothing wrong and upheld their end of the bargain
A FAR better way is to just hide the games you don't like, and then you won't ever see them and be tempted to play them. Also, if you remove games you paid for, and then a few years from now your tastes change and then you want to play them? You have to re-purchase them. OTOH, if you had just hidden them, you just unhide them.

I apologize if my wording was rude or harsh, as it wasn't my intention. however, looking back, I can see how it might have been taken that way.
For the information, if not my tone of voice (in case it was rude or harsh etc), you're welcome, I'm always glad to help if I can.

actually you can get support to restore the games you deleted but yh what you said for the rest. much easier to click unhide then it is to go delete then remember what games you have to restore if you want them
I wonder if it has a time limit though since i've not restored items from years back

Tu caso es curioso, varias veces hice giveaways pensando en los que menos juegos tenían y aunque considero que SG Tools es algo tedioso vale la pena en ocasiones. No te culpo si Pixel Cup Soccer no lleno tus expectativas porque el desarrollador prometió muchas cosas y hasta hoy no ha cumplido, si ese fuera el caso, mas que molestia por mi parte seria extrañeza. Para mi no hay gran perdida si lo eliminaras porque no gaste un peso, solo tiempo en Tremor Games (unos minutos diarios). Ahora si que habría que cumplir suspensiones como ya te lo comentaron y cuidado con cuantos borras.
