Hello, I am bot! I come bearing 2 gifts from an anonymous user!
This is a quick raffle that will expire in 6 hours. The winner will be drawn at random! Any prizes leftover after the deadline will become available on a first-come first-serve basis.
Is there any way to prevent people from winning games and reselling them? (It'd be nice if there was...)
Chili's skillet queso? Or regular queso? Queso with fresh cheese or Velveeta? Guac with fresh ingredients?
Thank you so much, I never win anything. I really appreciate it!
I doubt that's really possible, but I also doubt it's really a problem lol
anyway, if you wanted to do that it'd need to involve some way to track the key, and I Highly Doubt that that's really possible at all (and other solutions like "checking the person installed the game" wouldn't work for a variety of reasons)
No. Even with tools implemented to prevent that, like on Steamgifts, which checks that people have activated the items they win...it won't stop the first occurence.
I assume the programming to-do list includes blacklist and whitelist options, but that's purely from me and has no official confirmation.
From these choices: Magnolia or Kirby for queso, Taco Deli for guac. I realize these are hyper specific to me, but thems the breaks.
Even if it would stop the 2nd and further occurrences, it'd be better than nothing. I guess there could be reasons why somebody doesn't want to link their account as well. Oh well.
I'm bummed the Shantae Half-Genie Hero giveaway has a 7 days cooldown. I missed the game when it was in the Humble Bundle, played it recently on Game Pass but a Steam copy with the dlcs with the additional campaign would be great. Hopefully it get bundled in the Monthly soon.

Thanks Apopheniac and Giftbot for American Truck Simulator! Unfortunately it was already redeemed. :/
I'd like to see more Nep love around here. I think more people need to experience the
Look on the bright side, you're not excluded from any giveaways!
To anyone that might have won something in my raffle. I did my best to check if the codes were still valid. Some of em might not have been, and I'm really sorry in case you won something and the key/keys didn't work.
Should have put a disclaimer in the raffle. Will remember to do that next time! Again, very sorry!

In a lot of cases, it was more cost-efficient to buy a bundle for a game or two that caught my eye versus buying them by themselves. Some sites also have special deals to give you extra copies if you buy during promotions. This is a good excuse to do some fall cleaning and make final yes/no decisions on games I've sat on for years, for one reason or another.
Woke up to 19 notifications, and the vast majority weren't from Giftbot telling me I didn't win anything.
Hope everyone enjoys the games! I'll have some new giveaways soon.

This will be ending in less than an hour.
Pretty much. It's up to members to uphold the spirit of this giftbot bonanza.
Just realized that some raffles allow you to select every prize.... wonder how many I've missed out on only selecting one lol.
