I recently won a key on giveaway and it turned out the key was already used. I automatically gave a positive feedback before I even checked the key, because it never happened before, but apparently it's a thing now here. I'm happy if i can win a key like 2 or 3 times a year, but I guess it doesn't mean anything anymore. Deeply disappointing, because I'm not just trying to get, but I was giving away more keys than what I actually won, always valid ones.

Sad... Well, you can try to contact this guy through Indie Gala and hope that he would reply.
Invalid keys were a thing pretty much from the start of giveaway section. I guess you were lucky enough to not encounter this. Only "guaranteed" giveaways always valid - but that's why they are called "guaranteed". As for other "regular" giveaways - there always were some "bad gamers" and always will be. But also - people do make mistakes, we aren't perfect. Sometimes givers aren't aware that the key is bad and they will fix it if you contact them.
But if that guy doesn't answer (or if you can't/don't want to contact him) - send a ticket to support and ask them to change feedback to negative (and hope they would listen and answer).

Whole bunch of giveaways for Volta-X on Steam
Keys are given out on Alienware Arena.
Catch - it's not a full game! It's a preview - access will end on August 8: Volta-X Limited Steam Preview Key Giveaway
So all those aren't valid giveaways and whoever wins them and put positive will be whining later that they were "cheated".

P.S. Some of those even state that it's a preview key:

and many more

There's still a flood of giveaways like this one: Expansion - Crusader Kings II: The Old Gods
The main culprit even admitted they got all the keys for free. Can you please cancel all the open giveaways and add the DLC to the banned list to stop future giveaways? Also, if possible change all their recent positive feedback to negative.
The same person just flooded AGAIN with another 100 keys which were/can be obtained for free. This has got to violate something.

you got a working key ! and and put it negative ! FU :poop: ! you're a THIEF ! let it cross your throat !
You deserve your negative, you lied about what the key was. I hope you put up a bunch of those keys and got negatives on all of them.

I hope it was sarcasm...
I doubt it was sarcasm, they also left a post on my profile complaining about it.

shit What are you stinking of? Shove that key up your ass. I hope you NEVER win anything in your miserable life again. Let this beta key be the biggest win in your worthless life.
I honestly don't understand what you're complaining about. You failed to disclose it, and you knew it wasn't a full key. And now you're just being unnecessarily aggressive to someone who just was hoping to win something. If anything YOU don't deserve to win anything because it looks like scamming is a part of your nature. Perhaps YOU don't belong here.

This is ridiculous, there is like 10 pages of F1 2018 giveaways with humble bundle codes that expires in a couple of days, but available for anyone freely during that timeframe... Not to mention barely anyone added to the giveaway's description that the code will be invalid if it isn't used in a day or what.

we already had to scroll trough endless giveaways for cruzader DLC, now F1 2018. Let's hope there aren't any more mass giveaways of this site will be unusable

If you gave a full working key which was not a beta key, then write a message to support asking them to reverse the feedback. If it is a beta key, they are not allowed on giveaways and they can be correctly marked as negative feedback as the key you gave away is not for the full product. Ultimately, only you know where you got the key from and if you can provide suitable evidence, then show it to indiegala support and they can make a decision on it.

Someone should do something with this crazyness of Cruzader King DLC giveaway.
How many keys did this guys horded? insane really.

If you subscribe for the Paradox Interactive newsletter you get the DLC "The Old Gods" for free. It's provided as a Steam code so you might use any e-mail you like. I suspect the keys are legal and working, you just need a lot of email addresses. IG cannot stop the giveaway if the key is legit but they can make the xp so low its not worth the effort.

subscribing to the newsletter is the "condition" to obtain the dlc, if the giveaway is still open, you know have to check the right page

But they can add the DLC to the banned app list like they used to do when companies did mass giveaways. That would stop future giveaways being made at least.
