The winners will be added on Steam, because the pack is divided into a lot of keys. Please be patient if you win; it'll take time to give this many keys to ten people in that cumbersome Steam chat system.
Hence "free". The winner cannot post the key here, no, that is violation of the rules. You can post it in a forum, give it to a friend… or, if you are low on the ethical standards, sell it on the grey market. (But if you try to trade it here… well, same as regifting or false feedback.)
It wouldn't really be regifting. You entered for a pack and ultimately its all activated on your account. It wouldn't be any different than winning a giveaway, redeeming a key and the key giving an extra gift copy. Alternatively talgaby could just give you only the DLC keys and as the base game is already on your account its not going to luck suspicious on their profile either.
I think that's the best way to do it: talgaby should check the winner's library and if he/she already owns the base game then talgaby simply makes another giveaway for the base game only.
This way nobody breaks any rules and there will certainly be a lucky person out there who would be happy to win the base game only as well!
What do you mean? It is the whole pack, just not as one key. Plus it was allowed once already. It's the same as if you buy all elements of a Steam packs individually, the pack will be fully marked as owned and Steam will deny you the ability to purchase it for yourself; whereas it is possible up to the point where you don't own even one element. The winners will own the Mithril Edition.
Oh, that. I think it is more fair than dividing them. This way everyone spends only 80 points for an equal chance instead of n×80 on several entries. Plus it was kind of a bonus to a 25-week straight giveaway series I'm having. :)
It's good to hear. Ever since I had messages fifteen minutes after the GA ended asking for the game, I tend to be cautious with GAs where I don't send the key with SG itself.
Could have been someone new to the system; you have three days to send out the keys. When you send out the steam friend invite for this one, I'd include a reminder that it might take some time to send the keys. Most people here aren't jerks and will give you some time as long as you communicate with them. You might also consider letting the winners know where they stand in the order of you sending out the keys ("You're in spot #2, so expect your keys soon!" or "You're in spot #9, so please be patient as I work my way up to you")
Seven days, actually. I'm not really worried, the only concern I may have are the time zones, but this is what weekends are for. As I implied above, it is more like a safety bit in the description. ^^
Trust me, I know. I had to resort to that a few times.
But I also know that by doing this as public and level 0, I have to personally ensure that the winners activate it instead of "accidentally" putting it up on G2A. I may not do levelled or hidden GAs, but I'm also not naive.
thx( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)obrigado!!!

Very nice giveaway! I hope its allowed to enter if you have the game but not the dlc's

Yes, but since it is not one key but several, you'll have to accept the fact that if you win, you have to give away the base game's key freely.

That's a good idea, but is it ok with the site's rules ? I guess the winner might be punished for regifting :/

Are you giving a second gift copy of the base game as well, like the package does (on purchase)?
