Of course not. But there's a reason why there's such a rule and that reason is contributor levels. I would be perfectly fine with people gifting games they got free of charge if they don't receive (full) CV for them. Otherwise, that'd simply be unfair to those who actually shed money for the games they're giving away.

I still have a point because of the contributor levels. That's why there's a rule forbidding people to gift games they didn't shed a single penny for.

When a gazillion of keys are given away, like it's the case with IndieGala, the games will usually be removed from the list so people can't create GA's for them. For a game like Sky Mercenaries, sure, the keys are limited but it's still considered a free game. There have been talks about not allowing a CV increase for those type of giveaways and, yes, I do hope this will be implemented.
