Giveaway from Unlucky7 is deleted

Closed
furiouzgamer

So I was a member of Unlucky7 until a while ago. Since I won more than 8 games I voluntarily got out
However, my 7th win, which is https://www.steamgifts.com/giveaway/j07Ww/syberia-ii from this group has not been received yet
Worse, It's actually deleted by the creator. So i just would like to know what's going on here?
Again it's my 7th win and yes I got out before I received the gift so I was not an invalid member at that time
Any info or clarification would be great!

Seems like this should be posted on the Unlucky-7 group thread.

It hasn't been deleted, it's been rerolled(if it's the same you linked). As to why you'd have to ask the person that requested it.
Edit: checked the dates, it would have been your 8th win(Shadowrun: Hong Kong - Extended Edition being the 7th) so I guess that is why.

Sounds like support might've approved a deletion due to 'no longer a group member' without sufficient proof that you weren't a member at the time. I guess you can try to take it up with support, but it might take a long time to get a reply.

Maybe cause group rule?

Rules of application normal membership:
You need have won no more than 7 gifts on steamgifts (0-7 wins is ok, 8 or more will disqualify you).

^^ This. ^^

You had won your 8th game and you left the group as you were supposed to. The giveaway you ask for has been re-rolled due to the fact that you were no longer a member of the group.
Also, just as Mihey3Z was so friendly to point out already, for further clearance: it's not 7 wins in the group, but overall on Steamgifts.
So everything went in accordance to the rules. Please let me know if you have further questions.

You probably should have waited to receive the last gift before removing yourself from the group. Once you were no longer in the group, that gave them reason to believe you had been kicked, hence, the re-roll approval.

If he was in the group at the time the GA concluded it doesn't matter if he left or not after. His entry is still valid and a reroll/deletion can't happen without his consent normally. However assuming it's the same GA he linked it's the 8th win, which being against group policy is enough to grant that.

Eh, in fact the group rules are not valid towards SG. So if he would have been a member of the group by the time the giveaway ended the creator would have had to send it to them, even if they had 8 or more wins.
However, he was so friendly to leave the group when he won his 8th game, so he in fact was not a member anymmore when the giveaway ended. So the re-roll happened.

It's not deleted, it was rerolled because you were no longer in the group at the time the giveaway ended.
Anyway if there is an issue regarding a group, you should not create a thread about it, just contact a group admin/moderator.
