My giveaway ended about 6 days ago and I opened a ticket to request a new winner (reason is not something I need to discuss in public). So now there is a pending support ticket, which I should guess would be automatically marked as urgent since it's only 7 days that the creator can have before sending the gift to current winner.

So now that I've requested a new winner, the current winner can still mark as not received right?
Shouldn't the support ticket be resolved before that time span?
If not what happens if the mods decide to reroll? Is a new one created and the previous one deleted?
What if they decide not to reroll and the current winner has already marked it as not received?

Thanks for your attention and hopefully my ticket will get an official answer soon...


UPDATE

So I was granted a re-roll and the winner got suspended (for fake-boosting his contribution value). Problem solved. :)

Now I guess I have to wait for the 7 days timespan to end and will re-roll. Thanks a lot to the mod team and those who answered me.

Don't worry about "not received", if they grant you the reroll - it won't matter.

Yes but what if they don't grant me a re-roll?

If they don't grant you a re-roll then that means the winner deserves the game, so either you send it to them or they mark it "Not received". Simple.

I think your reason for not giving the game to the winner is kind of important. It's kind of a dick move.

Do you know the reason or is it a "di*k move" because he won't say it in the forum? (Honest question)

You can't really decide if it's a dick move or not without even knowing the reason. Sorry but I won't call out users in public, it's up to the decision of the mods.

I can, and I did. You're not the fucking game police. Don't even make giveaways if you are going to be a whiny pussy who doesn't like who wins.

Don't worry about it getting marked as not received by the original winner. As soon as it gets rerolled, their feedback will be deleted anyway. You shouldn't mark it as urgent as the mods don't like unnecessary urgent tickets, it really won't work in your favour. When it does get rerolled, a new winner will be automatically picked from the entrants, and you get 7 days to complete the gifting process.

Standard rerolls normally happen within an hour anyway. Maximum of a couple of hours but mine have never been more than 60 minutes after I file for a reroll.

first of all:
if you want to request a new winner, the giveaway should have ended exact 7x 24 hours ago. so exact 7 days, not 6 days.

You'll be granted a reroll if:

  • you request it after 7 days and it's clear the winner wasn't online the last 7 days
  • the winner was online in those 7 days but didn't reply to either your mail or friend request on steam

as others have mentioned, if you get a reroll, the feedback of the previous winner is discarded
