Humble Bundle 6 BTA Giveaway

Closed

Heyho,

first, please dont kill me for asking this question, but I've searched here already without finding an answer.

Question: Can I give away the Humble Bundle 6 BTA - Games (1 Key for Wizorb, BIT.TRIP.RUNNER, Gratuitous Space Battles and Jamestown) and only those, not the other Games out of this Bundle?

I'm not sure, but as far as I know, you'd probably need to give it away as one of the games in the bundle, i.e. give it away as Bit.TRIP, Wizorb, Space Battles OR Jamestown. I might be wrong as I'm still a rookie here, but that's what I believe.

you have to be careful with something like that though or you could get yourself into trouble. case in point:

I would say go to 'Support' and create a ticket and ask an admin what to do.

As I've seen lots of people doing it, I simply assumed that was a group rule rather than a site rule. But you're right, support is the best option. They're a bit slow latelly (Getting tonnes of quiestions) so you could need some patience.

Ahh that's an interesting problem. For anyone that doesn't understand the issue, HIB 6 has 2 multi-game keys and he only wants to give away one of the multi-game keys, but there is no appropriate choice for that on the site.

Unfortunately both multi-game keys have 5 games.

What I would suggest is asking the admins (via support ticket) to add another choice for HIB 6.

Currently there is

  • Humble Indie Bundle #6 (Above Average)
  • Humble Indie Bundle #6 (Below Average)

I'd suggest the admins change it to:

  • Humble Indie Bundle #6 (Above Average 10 Games)
  • Humble Indie Bundle #6 (Above Average 5 Games)
  • Humble Indie Bundle #6 (Below Average)

Contribution Value for (Above Average 5 Games) could be the Above Average cost - $1 (since you are not including the below average games which count for $1 of contribution value)

Actually, thinking about this more, I think the site may not allow this on purpose. The site doesn't want to support splitting up bundles and probably doesn't want to reward contribution value for doing so.

Giving away one of the bundle games with the multi-game key is probably your best bet (since you aren't gaining anything extra out of doing that). But if you are super worried about violating the rules, contact support and ask or just give away the key in the forums to ninjas. You could also probably trade it to someone for a key that you can give away on here.

I personally think it would be logical to either add a giveaway choice for the multigame key and value it at the Above Average Price - $1, or allow you to give it away as one of the bundle games with the other games as bonuses, but I don't get to make the rules.

You have to give the whole bundle.

If he created a Humble Indie Bundle #6 (Above Average) giveaway he would, but he hasn't done that, he is looking for a solution to the problem of wanting to give away a multi-game key that there is no choice for. Telling him "you have to do something impossible" does not help solve his problem.

"You can't" doesn't solve that problem either, but it's the correct answer to his question.
