I won a Terablaster key on Orlygift. I read the reviews, saw gameplay and i've realized that it's just not my cup of tea. So, can i do a giveaway of it? Would i break any rules? This would be my first giveaway if i don't break any rules.

You can't, games that are given away for free are removed from the giveaway list.

Oh Terablaster is removed, I think someone like SharpEyez could have a privilege to be able to create giveaways for it, I mean he gives 50 copies to promote greenlight games.

It became free just recently and Sharp probably made the GA before it became free :)

but that shitty Orlygift site is so hard to get something there, but not all free games are removed, for example games given away on GMG never were removed and ppl still gave them away, and then this games got into $0.50-$1 GMG packs, most of them were same games given for free to Playfire users and stuff like that.

So I'm curious what the cut off is...
Orly is only giving out 5000 keys.

What if a site only gave out 500? Or 1000? Are these rules in the FAQ and I just look like a newb for asking?

I don't really know, since moderators are in charge of removing games from the list, not support, and I don't think there are any set rules about it so it's left to their judgement. But I think around 500 is the cut off.

It's not happening. You can drop the key in the forum if you want, you just can't create a giveaway for it.

Keep in mind that if you win a GA here you must activate the game on your account. Not activaiting won gifts and regifting is punished with suspension.
Just wanted to point it out since you're relatively new user. And reading FAQ is good way to start.

So if i give this game away, i would be banned on Steamgifts or Orlygift?

If you didn't win it here, you're fine here. The source of the key you give away doesn't matter as long as it's not, you know, illegal (stolen keys, etc.) or something you won on steam gifts. That said, I think you probably wouldn't be able to create the giveaway because it's been given away for free.

Like it was said earlier you can't create GA for games previously given away for free (Terablaster, gun monkeys, pixel puzzle japan etc) but it doesn't really matter where do you get your keys or gifts as long as they're valid.

My previous comment was written just in case if you didn't know the rules of steamgifts and I wanted to warn you about it so you know it in the future and don't make a mistake.
If you win a giveaway on steamgifts.com and regift won game or don't activate it you can be suspended here. It's only if you win a GA on steamgifts.

If you don't write a review you might not be eligble for future giveaways from them.

Their choices of indie games are not that good. I rather level up than wait every week for a dissapointment.

Post your trade request here. Be careful of scammers, and you might not get a good trade out of it because it was given out for free.
