To all, especially the very kind gifters. The biggest thank you for your extreme generosity! I was thinking that we create and sub-manage a private steam group. In this steam group there will be a requirement before any giveaway or wheel/chance draws will be conducted.
This measure is to prevent multi-accounters from cheating with more entries and/or game requests than any honest single accounter as well as to prevent reselling/trading of given keys
First of all this steam group will have a strict entry acceptance requirements.
1. Steam account game details has to be public or at the very least made known to friends and within the friends list one of them has to be a moderator of the group. Or a dud account can be made where all members of the group must befriend to ensure easy checking that given game does not yet exist on account. Access to the dud account will be given to all moderators of the group.
- This will allow gifters to know if their given games will be activated on the account that requested for a giveaway
2. Steam account will be accepted into group only if it is known which Indiegala forum username it is tagged to.
- This will ensure that we know which steam account belongs to which Indiegala account. Preventing multi-accounting
Additional entry requirements (To be discussed)
1. Only accepting unlimited account or at least accounts that does not blatantly spells to be part of a multi-accounter.
2. Indiegala forum account must have some form of activity over plain key requests etc.
When games have been given to winners
1. Games has to be activated on tied account, checks will be made unless gifter states that games can be retraded or gifted away elsewhere initially on their giveaway.
Additional optional requirements to won games (based on each individual gifters)
1. Games must be played within 2 months, and maybe decent progress within 6 months. For gifters who wants to see their gift played
- For this requirement, in game screenshot needs to made. If not played or cannot be played within specified time, communication needs to be made to gifter. Else winner will be temporarily suspended from joining further draws until condition has been met.
Anyone who is in this steam group if found to be reselling/trading keys when it is not allowed and/or multi-accounting will be kicked and banned from joining future draws.
Of course gifters can also opt not to conduct draws based solely on members within this steam group. This group is mainly for bigger title games where winners can benefit from having more entries than allowed on a single account and/or reselling/trading the wins for something else.
Draws can still be conducted using this forum as usual just that the participants will be held strictly accountable for their wins.
Apologies to all especially gifters that this is a long read but apparently our giveaways seem to have been tainted with some not very honest individuals and we are thinking of ways to make it so that it will be fair for everyone. Any feedbacks all welcomed. Let's try to make our giveaways fair for every individual
