request to reroll i mean.. isnt that obvious? i do believe i know how this site works.. if he can't use it and its in a group thats like "russia" then its obvious it would be region blocked

Even if it was a closed giveaway, was it specified that the key would be locked to some countries,
how do you know his in a closed Russian group, why would he even be accepted there.
but this might be a Germany restriction problem, which has nothing to do with region lock

you are wrong.. if he gave it in a closed group, then due to the new steam policy i believe he would be forgiven since.. this is how steam is from now on.. if he gave it in public then ok its the giveaway creator's fault..

Or may be it's not creator's fault... He is from Germany. Games that have violence in them... with means very big part game titles, especialy AAA games... are banned in Germany. Even ROW versions. Or have diffrent less violence version for Germany.

I think this is exactly what happened.
If it was Kane & Lynch that's been being given away because of the new humble bundle, it's not the creators fault, there's a censored german version of that game

According to steamgifts rules, region locked games shouldn't be displayed as gifts
If I were you, I'd report da basterd

if you won it on steamgifts, then dont give it away or trade, you'll get in trouble for that.
Either report as not received, or politelly ask the giver to do a reroll and give someone else who can actually activate it.

If it's a region-locked game (like a russian copy), it's giveaway creator's fault.
You can mark it as "not received" if they don't give you a non-locked game.
If it's not available ONLY in your country, you can do nothing.
The giveaway creator can make a support ticket and ask for a reroll.

Apparently you are from Germany, which mean that you have received a game you can't redeem in your country because... because Germany. The gifter did nothing wrong. You have to contact him to say that he have to request a reroll for his giveaway.
DO NOT TRADE THE KEY/GIFT YOU'VE RECEIVED, DO NOT GIVE IT TO SOMEONE ELSE.

Your country is Germany? This is very special case... A lot of games are not avaivable in Germany, so you just need to aviod GA for them. There is no rule against GA that are ROW, but banned in Germany. Nothing can be done, the GA creator must ask for reroll and give the game to somebody else.
