The winner of my giveaway didn't approve that he received the gift.

You can wait for him to read the email.

i was waiting a few days before one of my winners approved his gift. So don't worry.

many people are not home this time around, maybe just wait some time :)

Yes, be patient. How can you tell it wasn't redeemed even though HB said the email was used?

this is why people should ALWAYS converse with the winner BEFORE just randomly mailing a key or game to them....

if they dont talk to you at all, then you dont give them anything and reroll them with the proof you messaged them. simple as that..... seriously thats the best and safest thing you can do.... why screw yourself just cuz you refuse to take a few minutes to make sure you can contact them
