I won a region-locked giveaway few month ago and since it's DLC giveaway, it doesn't got a lot entries

And by that, you mean $1.68 in total. Just for the record.
You need 5 entries in a giveaway, unless it is a region-free public one, where you only need 1 entry.
Also, it will be on the bundle list anyway, since a sale of 85% or greater in the Steam store will trigger that due to the prices in Russia (or India, Malaysia, Indonesia, Turkey, Mexico, Brazil, or China, but it is usually the Russian price that is the lowest).

Adding to that: if you really want CV, buy cheap bundles that have ROW keys (IndieGala, OtakuMaker, and DailyIndieGame have dirt cheap bundle keys that can give you up to 8 CV for every US dollar spent, with an average of 3CV/$) or don't buy any games from the India Steam store that have ever been on an 85% sale or more. (Use IsThereAnyDeal or SteamDB to check price history.) Or, if you do buy from the India store, run it for 3-4 days minimum. India is still has a small number of users hereโ€”it is not like posting a RU-CIS giveaway at level 0 that will have 5 automatic bot entries in the first 15 minutes.

Yeah, I was expecting that. Indians rely way too much on paper money, especially outside urban centers. China has a similar problem, but it is getting better as they are urbanising more rapidly.

Then make sure to run the giveaways for several days and also try to include weekends in the time span.

Some people might blacklist you for saying you spend 108 "bucks" which most people would assume are dollars while you meant rupees (which are much less valuable). Some people blacklist others for giving away mostly region restricted GA's while winning region free GA's. Some people will simply blacklist you for complaining.

I'm sorry you got blacklisted, I wanted to inform you how this site works and what to possibly look out for if you don't want to get blacklisted, but in my opinion it's best not to care too much about getting blacklisted :)

Wow.. The rules are made for these purposes you know that right. Maybe you should consider reading FAQ once again. There were some instances were some GA creators involved close circles of friends and they gave away games within themself, exploiting the system. It wasn't, giving away its was trading. Hence the rules.
So I would give you a good advice cancel the ticket, let this one go by.
First of all there isn't any valid reason to delete GA and you won't be granted it by support.
Second even if the support grants you to delete GA, all the winners seem to have received the keys so most of it might be activated till now. You can't create new GA with it.

once used they come in library,i.e they dont show in your inventory.... nd keys have a random code which cannot be seen by others while gifts can be checked on steam account; my steam account is public check in it^^

once a key is used, it shows in library also.. it too can be checked on steam account.. i honestly just don't see the difference between the two as far as removing it or not. i get that the gift will disappear from inventory when the person accepts it, but accepting it doesn't mean they did what they were supposed to and actually applied it to their library also. gratz on karma for ya though. ^^

BASICALLY- " you can check in both the cases gifts or keys by checking a person's gaming library"

If you have to make region-restricted GA then just make sure you make it run long-enough that at-least 5 users enter it. At least 24 hrs not just 1hr like you did. And if you are creating invite only GA/whitelist/Group why not run for atleast a week. (5 entries rule doesn't apply for public GAs)

I understand the restrictions for buying games at your country. But still its far more better than in my country. At least some banks give you the options to buy steam wallets. There is also paytm or something like that.

What I usually do is ask my friends who are abroad to buy me giftcards or purchase bundles for me and pay them back through western Union or by cash when they are back in country.

What I have now started doing now is I found some freelancer with paypal account. I ask him to buy the games and pay him back in local currency. This way there is no issues with region-restricted GA.

I see 2 winners have already activated their gifts/key. There won't be any help from anyone. You are just creating unnecessary ticket for a thing that can't be reconciled. Cancel the ticket.
The thing about gifts/keys you are trying to say, I can't understand at all.
If you are trying to say that we can see if the gifts are activated or not.. then yes we can see that but does it matter? They are already activated.

There were some instances were some GA creators involved close circles of friends and they gave away games within themself, exploiting the system. It wasn't, giving away its was trading. Hence the rules.
First of all there isn't any valid reason to delete GA and you won't be granted it by support.

Thus presumably why region-restricted giveaways had a 5 entry minimum added to them. Past that, they are open giveaways, so no form of exploitative game trading was occurring. Even if the low giveaway duration may have been an intentional method to stack the odds favorably, that's not against site rules. Likewise, there's absolutely no helping if their region is so weakly represented on SG- and given how word-of-mouth can help bring people to a site like this, it's actually completely normal for friends to compose a large part of any region newly representing itself upon the site. Whether exploitation was intended or not, the rules aren't in any way against having your friends enter your publicly listed giveaways, regardless of if they are region-restricted or not.
Likewise, I've firmly been given the indication by staff that they'll agree to a deletion under any circumstance where both winner and GA creator agree to it. Unless you've staff indications to the contrary, you may be mistaken in your rather certain-seeming declaration. That said, pretty sure cg has to manually edit out deletions within multi-copy giveaways, so it may take some time to get such a deletion resolved.

Regardless, the winner always has the right to refuse a gift, and lacking any additional entrants, the OP can easily clear up the matter with having their friend put in a reroll request.

For NON public giveaway (which are: invite only, group(s) and whitelist restricted) you need at least 5 entries to gain CV.
I assume you're talking about 3 copies of Beautiful Japanese Scenery - Animated Jigsaws, where you got only 3 entries; you're missing two more entries to gain CV.

According to my thoughts, you should give as much as you will and expect nothing back. If while giving you've got that mentality, then good. Yet as it seems you don't. The leveling up is merely there to somehow reward the givers. Plus, if I was interested in investing, as you seem to do, I'd have stopped giving away when I reached level 3 or 4 (which I suggest you to do, if you want to profit).

If you think getting to a higher level will yield you more wins, then no, it will not. Giveaways past level 5 are incredibly rare. Better chances with more wins are in the small groups, but they also require a heftier money investment to get in.

Don't get too excited. You'll reach there eventually.
Real cost for game that you giveaway doesn't always equal to same CV values.
There are various factors such as

  • Bundled/unbundled games. Unbundled games accounts to 15% base price of the game.
  • Copies of game given - Read "What are levels, and how can I increase my level?" on the link provided
  • No of entries in GA based on public, private/invited, group or whitelist.
  • Mass givaways on other sites. > If you happen to create GA for game that was recently given away, the GA will be deleted and no CVs.

If you want to increase your CV. Rather than buying games on steam look out for bundled games by indiegala, bundlestars, humblebundle etc.
Or you can check good deals that are running right now on SGTools deals

From what I can gather is that none of this matters, because he probably wouldn't have been lvl 3 for very long. Game's supposed to be marked for bundling. So honestly it doesn't matter. Also with the influx of humble monthly's getting to lvl 5 has to be easier than it was previously. So, either there needs to be a retooling of the lvls, or Humble monthly's become a special class of bundled.

My point is for 12 dollars you can get 100 of dollars in CV, getting to lvl 5 on SG is like twenty-four dollars maybe thirty-six dollars if it's a particularly bad month. I'm saying that it's far too easy to get to lvl 5 that doesn't have you breaking the bank.

the same could be said about any level using that logic - so I am not entirely sure what your objection was to what I said in my post about taking someones word at face value about who they are in real life is gullible. That really doesn't have much to do with CV or levels ;)

Comment has been collapsed.

My original point was this even if he is india, and the whole goal was to reach lvl 3 quickly he fails at it because even if he's lvl 3 now the game is marked to be put on the bundle list because of regional pricing.So he honestly could be telling the truth, I mean it seems an odd thing to lie about. The guy openly admits to wanting to lvl up with cheap games so he can enter for better things. But given how things are going right now that logic is faulty because it's incredibly easy to get to lvl 5 so if the idea is to win more games, it's not happening because there will be an increase in lvl 5 entrants due to more lvl 5s. So I'm also saying that his attempts to be lvl 5 for potential profitz is silly.

As others have mentioned, the rule in question is that you need at at least 5 entries to get CV unless the giveaway is public and has no region restriction (the region restriction part is easy to miss). Sorry you had to learn the hard way. At least you didn't spend too much money (but, as someone who grew up in the 3rd World too, I understand that it's more for you than for those who earn dollars).

The moral of the story is that if you're making a region-restricted giveaway then you should let it run for a few hours at least, so that there's time for enough people to enter.

You have multiple GAs with the same winner often region locked with under 10 entries. You probably shouldn't attract to much attention with that stats, because it LOOKS like you try to cheat the system.

1hr GA ran; 3 entries only... even if i were running the GA for a week not more than 25 entries.... only few people actively do GAs so thats why repetitive winner nd the giveaways were always public(except 1 time)... yeah i asked the friend who won the GA; not everyone is greedy!
nd if i was trying to cheat the system then probably the winners will regift it? in that case why am i causing a world wide attention to them and myself?
in case of regifting i would anyways get my gift back which isnt the case so... U R TOTALLY WRONG!

That's a different exploit.

The exploit in question works as follows:
Friend 1 wants Game A.
Friend 2 wants Game A.
Both friends get the game in a bundle. Instead of activating the games, they put it up for CV, and get each other's copies through the site.
With 5 friends involved, they can all ensure they get a copy (as the other friends just reroll on grounds of having already won a copy).

While region-restricted giveaways are less easily exploitable, putting up short-duration ones could be seen as trying to improve odds of your friends winning. It may not qualify as breaking site rules, and normally wouldn't be an issue with public giveaways- but with such a low entrant pool, it does come across in the same dubious way that 'game trading' groups do, and is likely to get you comments like the one above.

So, for the sake of minimum entries and community appearance both, it may be worthwhile for you to consider doing multi-day giveaways, instead. That said, not everyone is going to make assumptions about you- though phrasing like 'u r totally wrong' really does encourage less positive assumptions, so maybe avoid that- so if you know you're being honest, then don't feel you need to yield for the sake of others' misconceptions. Of course, it would be to your benefit to acknowledge the perceptions of others, and doing so would really only put a demand on your patience, so there's really little downside to it.

in that case why am i causing a world wide attention to them and myself?

I take it you're not familiar enough with the forums to realize just how often that happens, here. :P

that's the spirit! that's actually a beautiful way of thinking ^-^
CV is nice and all, but it's a by-product of gifting a game to a stranger and hopefulyl making his day. What's important is that someone out there now got a new game that he'll probably enjoy more than you'd have enjoyed it, if it's bundle leftovers for example.
