SteamGifts Tools is a tool in a form of a website that lets you do some interesting checks to steamgifts mechanics:

Link www.sgtools.info

Themes

  1. SG Dark Grey Userstyle by SquishedPotatoe thread
  2. Old (deprecated) ones:

User Scripts

  1. SGTools Helper: Help you create giveaways with SGTools typical options and marks protected giveaways on steamgifts giveaway page
  2. Links to user profile: Awesome userscript made by SilentGuy that adds links to the common sgtools checks on a user profile. See his thread
  3. Links on giveaway's winners page. The script will add a sgtools.info link next to each winner's 'Request New Winner' link in your giveaway's winners list, so that you can easily check them for non-activated and multiple wins
  4. ESGST: An all-in-one script to rock your Steamgifts experience. It integrates to and gives quick access to several SGT functionality from inside steamgifts website.

Tools

  1. Check real cv value (as we had in steamgifts v1) and it's level translation with a detailed log of every game contribution and how they add up to the final number.
  2. Check real cv for your won gifts, so you can compare with your send gifts.
  3. Check if a user has activated all his gifts, useful if you want to check a little bit the winners of your giveaways.
  4. Multiple Wins. Checks if a user has won and marked as received the same game more than once
  5. Last Bunled Games. List new additions to the bundle list of the last 7 days with a minimum of 50 entries, showing the game (with a link to steam), the date since the game is considered bundled and the date when it was added to the bundle list.
  6. Create, manage and enter giveaways with more advanced and complex filters than the ones in steamgifts.
  7. Deals and their bundle status

Limitations

  1. Since CG don’t give us an open API, all requests have to parse your full profile to check your sent games, this will take some seconds (more if you gave away tons of games!), so please be patient.
  2. The site uses a cached bundle list, so if you find a recent bundle game that gives you a full value instead of the 15% one, just wait until the next cached bundle list is ready. Cached Bundle list auto-updates itself every 6 hours starting at 3:00AM GMT (3am, 9am, 3pm, 9pm).
  3. The tool will search steam API to get the real cost for packages that has its point value truncated to 50 in steamgifts, but if the package is no longer available the tool will use the points as CV (50$).
  4. It may sound obvious, but the tool can't check not activated gifts if the profile is private.

Since I was directed here when I asked a question, I was wondering if a filter for real_won_group (which would likely follow with real_won_private, invite and public) is planned to be added. You could check here if you wanted to see exactly what I meant, but I included what would, I think, make it work, so it's probably not necessary to see.

Is there a way to tell how many Level 0 giveaways I made before and after I started using SGTools? Some people (example) say that using this site is selfish, while I have the exact opposite impression. To me it encourages giving to a much larger audience than the Level system, but it would be nice to back this hunch with facts.

It doesn't matter what you say to them, the discussion always involves the same people, just let them be happy and don't give them more food.

They tend to forget that what they use to "check rules and be a good sgifter" is sgtools itself, they don't do it by hand, but they still trash sgtools as a whole instead of only the giveaway filter part :)
Sum to that the fact that they only do group/whishlist/high level public giveaway and they cry for a more open steamgifts (lol?)

TL/DR: Don't feed them :)

It looks like you cannot search "Batman - The Telltale Series" from their games library even if they did activate the game on the account. For now it may be better to add it to whitelist.

Edit: I still don't see it being an issue right now (no one shows as non-activated win nor whitelisted game), but maybe worth attention on this game.

Unfortunately, not for me =,(
It was fine at first, but today it started to be listed as "Not activated" - http://www.sgtools.info/nonactivated/Gequila
It doesn't show on my steam profile also, shown only in the local library (it's happening to other players as well - http://steamcommunity.com/app/498240/discussions/0/360671352684718698/) =(

It's been protected by a SGTools giveaway at some point, that's why it warns the users with the Userscript that it is protected.

They can ignore it, since you are not using the SGTools protected url and you have revealed the protected url in public. That itself makes any reclamation to SG support for a reroll or to me for invalid entries void, so they are safe.

So I tell here to him to find some help.

I checked the Archive and he won the first GA ever of this game here on SG so it might be a false positive and knsys has to add the game to the whitelist. I just recommended synching SG Tools because that usually fixes most issues unless Steam API doesn't recognize the game.

seems it complaining about a non activated win for me in 2013, checked my acount licenses and key activations page the giveaway was for alien shooter, my keys say alien shooter: revisted for that activation time i think at the time i may have thought that was the game and didn't question it, any way to fix it other than having to spend money to correct a 3 year old error

What? Of course not. If a site includes ref links, posting "other" links of it forbidden too? This way all google links should've been forbidden too.

And I really don't understand why do you care about it this much? Let suppport members deal with it.

It's not that. I hate those ref links (and also gleams that includes refferals or not) as much as you do. But you're not asking a question, you're asking that question a lot and taking on people. And it's becoming annoying as much as those that you're whining all around steamgifts about it as well.

There are a lot of people who care about rules and steamgifts as yourself. But they don't do this. You just got hung up about it and repeat yourself over and over again countless times. Don't do it. If you really want to do something about people who break rules, doing it more privately will be to both's benefit, for them taking it in consideration in a more serious way, for us to avoid being into this.

if people didn't break the rules constantly on sg, these warnings/questions wouldn't be necessary.

The deals section doesn't link any g2a or Kinguin url, only when the site displays a game and only if it has the correct url on the database.

And yes, some of them are ref links and are there because around 60% of the people using the site are using adblock. Apart from that, reflinks doesn't really work, they gives peanuts, even less peanuts than ads itself.

With that said, sgtools links are not against the rules since it doesn't have a ref link by itself, so people are not posting a reflink (that is the rule is SG). If you want to extend to links of links of links, no website would be able to be posted on steamgifts.

I suppose the difference here to those gleam links is (and do correct me if I'm wrong, I've never used gleam for anything) that the whole purpose for them is to get people to use that ref link. While the deal section on SGTools is on the side as an ad, which most likely will be ignored by the majority.

Still, would be nice to get the support to give their opinion on the matter.

Ahh, I see. Then if that was closed, I'd say it's similar enough to that you were right to contact support.

Have to say, I do appreciate you finding those ref links, warning other about them and informing the support. I'd only notice the more obvious ones.

Has knsys (or Support) responded to this? It sure seems like the links should be removed. Ultimately it's between Support and knsys. Thanks for the investigation, steffke. <3

Recently I won Sleeping Dogs Definitive Edition, but SGTools shows that I have not activated it. I think the problem is that it is not base game, but with DLC. Can someone fix it or give me solution? Thanks :)

The creator of the giveaway gave you the Definitive Edition? They made a giveaway for the normal edition, which is a seperate game and thus they should have given you a key for that one instead.

The way SGTools works, it is intended to flag this as a not activated win.

However, you should contact the giveaway creator and tell him about this. He made a mistake in mislabeling the giveaway and he should have given you the old game instead. You should advise him to contact support about this. Maybe they can do something about it (and maybe change the giveaway to the right one). (Althought I beieve that's not possible after it has ended (?). I always forget how that works, oh well he should just contact support and ask them D: )

After you have told the giveaway creator, you can mark the giveaway as not received.

Ah yes, it should work. it's a simple mistake: https://www.steamgifts.com/discussion/5qeXs/what-exactly-will-change-giveaway-game-do#fU7q2Bc

Why are some of the bundle games counted as full value on sgtools? I recently won Battleborn and it's listed as full value even though it was from the Humble Bundle (I was given an HB link). Also games like Nuclear Throne and Grim Fandango Remastered and some others are listed as full value when they were won after the bundles came out. It's affected my real value ratio.

The price of the full bundle is too high for some games to be added. Just because the game is in a bundle doesn't mean it will be counted as bundled.

Ok I see. Thx for the explanation.

Games from the highest tier of a bundle usually are considered unbundled, because the discount is still under 95% of their US price.
While Battleborn and Borderlands TPS actually reached 96.7% discount, for some reason they aren't on the bundle list yet, but they'll surely find their way there, sooner or later.
