Rerolls are only done by mods, usually for a reason. Did you already have the game or something?

I thought Support usually require a good reason for accepting a re-roll, but I can't see anything wrong with your profile which would suggest any obvious problems (other than that VAC ban, but I'm doubtful that would be grounds for a re-roll)...

Perhaps today is the fabled annual "bring your crack-pipe to work day" at Steamgifts Towers?

Can't you create a ticket and ask Support what the deal is? Even if you don't agree, at least you'll know why it happened.

I'd think that would cross the line into calling out.

I don't know that they would consider that calling him out.
I just try to be very mindful of that particular rule.

A screenshot of the giveaway with the creator obscured would have been a safer way to go.

You should definitely contact support about it if you haven't already.

It's too late for you to receive the game, but you could perhaps at least learn the reason for the re-roll.

You should then share it with all of us because I'm very curious.

I have ban? No. I have this game? No. Some rules in giveaway? No, it's public.

Yeh, I agree. Looked over the giveaway you posted, I see nothing wrong. Did you make a support ticket for it?

Trying to get the attention of a mod by posting on their steam profile doesn't help. Are you supposed to get special treatment above other people?

Man, let's think... You sent key and someone activated it. So key no isn't valid, giveaway marked as received, all happy... Good story, isn't it?

Seriously. Please try and explain in a coherent manner what seems to have happened. If you have the giveaway entry, you might want to link it, at least in your support ticket.

If the giveaway was actually rerolled, there is a logged reason, which has been verified by the support member that approved the reroll. People want to help you, but you're not helping yourself right now.

Edit: I saw you link a giveaway for Resonance below. If that's the one, please do what others have suggested, post a support ticket. But please, make it short and informative. I haven't even understood what you mean here.

Okay.

  1. X create giveaway
  2. Y win giveaway
  3. X ask reroll
  4. Z make reroll
  5. W win reroll
  6. X send key
  7. W activate key
  8. X get contribution

What we have? X create giveaway and have valid key so he can get contribution. But there is bug(mistake Z?) and another person get key and mark giveaway. So "9. Y GTFO"?

Looks like your account is in order and has no reason to re-roll. Although your account is Vac banned and you have it private (I never understand why, do people think they're that important?), it is not grounds for a re-roll. Are you sure it was re-rolled, perhaps the site is bugged or something? Contact support as mentioned though, it's strange for if it were to be re-rolled, as you have not had any action dealt against you in regards to if it were re-rolled for something that normal users can't look in to.

Because sometimes i add in my profile private giveaways links... So it's not good if everybody can see it

Some people want privacy. For example, you might not want your boss to see how much time/money you spend on video games or if you play during working hours.

Did you enter a giveaway for a packaged game but you already own the base game or multiple games in it? Because some people dislike giving a set of packaged games to someone who already owns something in it.

Hmmm... So it's for Resonance and not some packaged game.

I don't see any reason why he wouldn't gift it to you. And the creator's profile is totally legit.

I see no reason for a reroll. It's public so it couldn't have rules, correct?

Technically it can't have rules. But, for example, entering a Civ 5 GOTY giveaway when the winner already owns Civ 5 is scummy.

However, in OP's case I see nothing in both party's profile to suggest why OP shouldn't receive the game.

You didn't get your game since you never said "thanks" on the giveaway?

Alrighty. First of all, if you have an issue, use the SUPPORT section. We're not online 24/7, we'll check it when we're able.
Second, and this goes out to all users who try to do "junior moderating", just because a user's profile is clean doesn't mean that there wasn't a reason. While I'd explain it, this concerns only the user and the gifter, and no one else.
If you try to get "sympathy" by making threads like this with omitting information, you'll get suspended for calling out.
