I won a gift 3 days ago, haven't received the gift, and have apparently been blacklisted by the giveaway creator. I can no longer find any information on who even created the giveaway, much less contact the person. If I try to check the information for the giveaway, Steamgifts now blocks me from accessing it.

Theoretically, the creator could send the gift to my email address in the next day, but my guess is that won't happen.

If you won the GA 3 days ago, he's still got 4 days to send it. Doesn't sound likely that he will from what you've said, but they have a full week to send the game.

But why he blacklisted me?

If you can't find any info, it means you have been rerolled.

Maybe you didn't meet the requirements/ rules he stated on the page of the giveaway, or it was a pack/bundle and you owned some part of it (exemple : giveaway was a GOTY game but you already owned the base game).

How would you know if he blacklisted you ? He can't do it once you've already entered. If you know you won, it means you weren't blacklisted.

The reroll seems more likely.

edit : what giveaway was it ?

Isn't this forbidden ?

If it's a private/small group giveaway, special rules may apply if:

  1. The rule has been approved by support
  2. The rule was clearly stated in the giveaway's description

  • If the rules were validated by support,

  • if the giveaway was either private or a small group GA

I think he just means he can't access the GA page anymore and thus doesn't know who the creator was. (He should still be able to see the GA page if he logs off, though).

everyone has reason.
Mark as not received and move on.
if he doesn't give support a good reason for a re-roll (he won't probably) he will lost one slot of the GA's he can do.

You'll win more.

You can contact support and provide a link to the giveaway to ask if there is any information on what happened, however it's only been 3 days so I would suggest waiting a few more.

Closing this, just in case, since I noticed people have asked for the giveaway and you should not point it out on the forum.
