Here's the thing, my GA's winner had recently won, but didn't activate a game. He explained the situation to me and I gave him a chance to activate it. The strange thing is, that when he said he did, steam didn't show me the game in his account. Naturally, the first thing that crossed my mind was that he's using sgtools's down time for his advantage, hoping I won't check manually. Now everything is OK, but I can't stand that I looked like a douche for somewhat accusing him for a liar. So, tl; dr:
What's the chance this was a software mistake and I made a fool of myself?

Also, I can't sleep, thats why I'm asking stupid questions. Please have a gib.

It should show instantly on his games on steam as far as I know.

sgtools might take until he manually syncs himself on steamgifts.

basically you always have to manually search his games on steam, as it is shown to you there instantly.

Do not use SG Tools for that, as others said, go directly to his Steam profile and check if he has the game there.

Now he does, but for a period of time SG tools said he had the game, but steam said he didn't. That's what confused me and I didn't send the game before confronting him. But now I think it might been a steam error for not showing the library item.

That never happened to me, sorry. I always check my winner's accounts for activation and the game appears instantly (if they activated it).

Thanks for the reply, it's comforting to know I'm not some paranoid guy, being suspicious for no reason. The straitjacket has been postponed, for now.

I think it is not paranoia, simply I don't like rule breakers :)
