Created/Won naming and count

Naming.
The way I see it:

CREATED should be named GIVEN (or GIFTED) instead (created but not delivered are not counted)

WON should be RECEIVED (see above)

Also, for GAs with only ONE entry, atm:

if you are the creator, the game IS NOT counted

if you are the winner, the game IS counted

shouldn't this be consistent? either yes or not for both?

I disagree on all.
The words are correct as have been used until now.

So let's say you create 10 GAs, then delete 3 and don't send the game/key to 2 winners. You then successfully deliver the remaining 5 keys. The counter will show 5, not 10. What it shows is the number of GAs you actually sent, not those you just created.

The fact that 'it's been like this until now' doesn't make it right. The website was just re-started anew with lots of big and little adjustments and improvements, I think it could be a good occasion to tinker with few trivial things too, that's it. Definitely not important though.

I wonder why you disagree with the second suggestion, re the 1-entry GAs count?

Your user profile will show the right number of git sent, but your created page will show everything you created.

That's what I was talking about, I guess I should have made it clear. The numbers shown on the user's profile. The created/won pages are good as they are.

Except that created giveaways that are not yet delivered do appear on the created page, and won games that you haven't yet received also appear on the won page.
