Dear knsys,
Hi, I hope you're doing well :) could you inform me about my infraction on sgtools? I dunno how I get one, I learned that I entered a giveaway which I shouldn't. I'm mostly using my sg app on my phone, so is there a chance there is a bug or an error? Or is it my pure, innocent ignorance, which shouldn't tolerate of course :)
Best wishes, loves and kisses mate. (ps.the kiss part was a lie...)

Hi mubyc,
You entered a Sunrider: Liberation Day - Captain's Edition sgtools protected giveaway without passing the sgtools gate (aka leaked giveaway).
Comment has been collapsed.
I see... Is it about me breaking the rules, because I tought I could enter the giveaway, since I could see the link?
Comment has been collapsed.
Where did you see the link at? Only enter private giveaways if the creator itself gives you the link or posts it on public.
Right now you are the only invalid entry for that concrete giveaway, so the possibility that the url has been publicly available is quite low, since it would have attracted far more than one entry.
If you get the url from a friend or steam chat, those things can happen.

Aforementioned giveaway was at five very important topics Small celebrations in life
Positivity
Saving the Kitties
Peace
Not being alone,which I will do the same soon :)
I came from small celebrations, because I entered its giveaways too, and I'm pretty sure came from sgtools check, even now I could get the button for get the giveaway link. So, there must be a mistake. After checked, usually bookmark the giveaway on Android app because there's too much time for that giveaway and have a little point, maybe this is the reason?

Your entry shows that you passed the giveaway rules at 2017-06-22 23:33:28, but never asked for the url (aka your state is STATUS_PASSED but not STATUS_ENTERED).
There is no way to get the url without having the STATUS_ENTERED flag, since it checks it first before returning it. And of course there is no way to go from STATUS_ENTERED back to STATUS_PASSED.
Why you didn't ask sgtools for the urls when you passed the giveaway rules and used a leaked url to entry the giveaway instead, is something that you should ask yourself. Maybe you thought that you already got it and used the url that a friend gave you or something on those lines.
Comment has been collapsed.
Understood, but the thing is, I don't have any friends to give me the giveaway link in this community, and foremost, I don't get the link even if somebody gives me. The point I don't understand is, I'm qualified to enter the giveaway since I got STATUS_PASSED flag, but I know I entered the giveaway page but didn't give points and bookmarked it. After that, when I have enough points, or when I remembered that I bookmarked that, returned to the bookmarks and enter from there. I don't know if there are some miscalculated code fragment in sg app, but the STATUS_ENTERED flag must be true, since I know I entered that one by myself.
Comment has been collapsed.
There is no way for that to happen. If you are that sure that you got the url from sgtools, maybe you did it from another account?
Comment has been collapsed.
Nope, this is my only account my friend. I'm using this one for almost 1.5 years, and this is the first time I've ever seen something like this at that time.
My point is, there could be some error or bug in some part of code in sg app or sgtools, and consider this one as a feedback report. I did what I've been doing for a year, and this happened. So maybe somebody else could suffer from this. I would be very happy to help with that :)

i've actually always wondered if you pass the rules/check, but then the creator alters the rules, does that effect people who passed the prior rules in any way?
(relative above issue made me wonder this once again)
Comment has been collapsed.
Once you get the url, your entry remains valid forever. It doesn't matter if the creator changes it to a rule you won't pass, you already have a valid entry for that giveaway.
Comment has been collapsed.
Any idea why sgtools shows the wrong time zone for me? It shows giveaways I just created as "finished" because it shows 6:10 am for the time when it's 9:10am here.
Comment has been collapsed.
If you create the giveaway on a future date, and before it starts you submit it to sgtools it will see the starting time as ending time. It's not really sgtools fault, it's just that SG displays that time on the same place as ending time.
You can do a check for valid entries / invalid entries / all entries and it'll auto correct itself.

It did take a while to load, but in the end it did work here..

Hey, I have a problem with SGtools. I can't enter most of the giveaways because of the "unactivated win". Can you tell me why? I have all my giveaways received and activated on my account. I had the problem with Van Helsing: Thaumaturge though. I didn't activated it because I've already had it on my account, but I still marked as received. (I had a suspension for it for a few days if I remember). Could it be the problem?
Comment has been collapsed.
I have this (image)... But I have never had a private option on.
Comment has been collapsed.
Ok, you're right, I thought I had to write my steam username.
But now, I have checked, and i have problem with a game that I won, but ga creator gave me another game instead (consulting it with me).
If I buy the "unactivated game" I won't have problems with SGtools anymore?
Comment has been collapsed.
Yes, if you just buy it, you won't have problems with sgtools.
But if you both agreed to change the won game in the past, you can file a ticket to support, they can change the giveaway to the game that you really got.
Comment has been collapsed.
Oh okay, thank you very much! I will try to fix this problem as fast as possible.

Hey knsys, apologies if this has been asked before. Any thoughts on the viability of adding a check for an entrant having a specific achievement(s) before a certain date?
(Although achievements can be obtained illegitimately, I don't believe there's any way to fake the achievement's date earlier than when it's triggered, although one game I have does have a very buggy achievement with an out of bounds sort of date.)
Thanks!

A list from another thread to whitelist. That's a lot...
Comment has been collapsed.
Probably better to use that more complete list than the posts above, yeah.
Comment has been collapsed.
A lot of games have been removed!
The staff of SGT probably didn't finish the work yet (add those games to whitelist). I still have 5 those games listed in the list of not activated.
Comment has been collapsed.
same here...
suddenly appearing to be a rulebreaker feels wrong... :(
I understand it's related to this list that needs to be whitelisted by staff and after that all is ok?
Comment has been collapsed.
Yes, those games will be listed like DLC are while checking someone's profile, under "there is no way of checking if user activated them" and people will get free pass on SGtools.
Comment has been collapsed.
What does whitelist mean? That they won't be checked anymore and automatically assumed as activated?
Don't mean to rain on anybody's parade, but some people probably won those games here and never activated them.
Doesn't seem the appropriate solution, as they will get a free pass.
Comment has been collapsed.
Problem is that steam did remove those games from people accounts. So there is no way of checking if they not activated them, or just Valve flipped switch and removed game from 100 - 150k accounts.
So whitelisting those games is only solution to this problem.
Comment has been collapsed.
Thing is, they were never removed from people's account. They just don't count towards the total number of games for that account anymore. Owners of those games still have them on their library and can play them whenever they want.
Comment has been collapsed.
Doesn't matter that they are in their library and can be played (good thing that cards are nor marketable).
If you go on someone's profile, go on game list, and try to find any of removed games - you won't find them listed there. And it's only way for external sites to check game ownership (they do it via API, not parsing sites tho). SG or SGtools can't check what you can see when you look at your library, so only solution to not screw over (maybe) half or quarter SG userbase is to add those games to whitelist.
Comment has been collapsed.
There is another category for these already, check mine and you will see.
Games no longer in steamAPI to check
This category is similar to previous one, but the dlc (most probable case) or game (rare case) is no longer in steam API database.

Yeat another "unactivated win" problem.
https://image.ibb.co/dTfFCv/Steam_Tools.png
Don't know if problem with game's name, but as you can see it is not "Adventurous Life VR", it is just "Adventurous Life" in VR section.
