why do you think it is that you are getting so many different keys for only a single buck? cause they are pretty worthless in value.

you spend $1, and currently can gain ~$9 in CV, yet that's not enough?

Yes. The reason why free games can't be given away is that if would falsify the CV system.

It's one of the ways to falsify the CV system.

One of many. Indeed.

But free games is one of the very few where something can be done about it. Most other problems like regional pricing are, I'm afraid, things we'll just have to live with.

I agree and I hope how free games are handled here on SG will remain the same

i actually hope they'll be able to be given away for no CV whatsoever, simply for the sake of giving them, i liked how CG mentioned it in the previous post and says the team is currently considering it.

That looks and sounds ok, for the moment I just key drop the free games I get that are in bundles or turned free after a bundle released.

OK, I said i know why we cant giveaway FREE games (but I got GRID, DIRT 3 and many other "FREE" games), but here are games from 1$ bundle on giveaways, so i was curious why they can giveaway them, and why i cant

Below (Sa6peto) is most likely your answer.

What is your available ga from the middle line:

Giveaways New
You're able to create up to 138 additional gifts based on your giveaway feedback.

Ignoring everyone else above , you may be out of giveaway slots ... Since you have giveaways pending you have limited amount of giveaways you can have active at a time.

3 being the staring number and you gain a slot for every 3 gas that get marked as received by winners.

For very GA you delete or gets marks as non received you lose a slot.
That's to prevent many fake GAs

That is most likely the reason why you can't make GA for the game atm
