I think you should warn the GA creator and tell him to ask for a reroll if he cannot give you a key you can redeem.

That might cause to appear another thread, better talk to creator and try to resolve it

I was hoping OP will tell the creator that the giveaway is region restricted and that they should do sth about it. But you are right, I agree 100%.

Yeah, alerting giveaway creator would be nice. And I believe you'll sort this out, either rerolling or deleting the giveaway.

Most likely , I believe there is away to make the GA restricted because of not being ROW right?

yes, if originally created with the proper restrictions, but altering it now would be pointless cause most the entiries probably are not even within the proper region.. probably best to delete GA then recreate properly.

they either are new at gifting, or they were trying to circumvent the region restriction CV cut. (region restricted gifts give partial CV compared to row gifts)

or simply forgot the restriction i suppose xD

Yes, there is a way to make a GA RU+CIS restricted. Probably he just forgot. Rerolling might not solve this issue, though - new random winner could be from anywhere, too. The best solution in this case for giveaway creator is to give his apologies for all those who enter and delete this giveaway (and then create a new one with proper restrictions set). But he might be lucky and next winner could be able to activate it - who knows? :o)
