I don't know - they obviously have a list of ineligible games, so conceptually it shouldn't be hard to implement the change.

Personally, I'd like to see users be able to create 0 CV giveaways for free games that don't count toward your sent/won ratio and aren't visible except through one of the special views (like Wishlist or Groups, on the left side of the page) unless you opt-in with a checkbox in Settings. That would let people create random-winner giveaways that are protected against bots, like other giveaways, while preventing abuse for CV.

I think one reason they don't do this second part is that it could lead to people regifting freebies from other sites, which could make some folks angry. If Indiegala creates a giveaway to promote their site with Solarix, then it starts showing up in bulk in Steamgifts as people harvest it from Indiegala, IG's got a right to be pissed. SG is getting ad revenue from the giveaways while SG users aren't visiting IG's site - only the harvesters are, who are probably using scripts and multiple email accounts, then using freebie giveaways on SG to promote themselves (whether twitch and youtube channels,or some other form of advertising).

He confirmed it anyway, what happens now, a slap on the wrist?
