Very strange. I think GOG are trying to impede the ninjaness of my giveaway. According to my gifts it's open.

If someone is at the "Reedem" part of the code, the code will show up as used. If the person decides not to redeem it (or can't, as is my case), when he/she presses cancel, code will be available again.
Not sure if there is a delay between the cancel and the available again though, if that is the case, wait a bit more and try again.

I see, thanks. Guess I'll see what happens to it. Was meant to be a ninja gift :).

I think this is the case, too. GOG's fix for the doubly-redeemed code bug.

I think the problem with the old doubly-redeemed was that once you were in the "Redeem" part of the code, you would get the game(s), no matter how many others were at that part as well. This implementation does seem better, even if it does deter the ninjas a bit more.
No matter, practice and you'll be a better ninja :P

Exactly. The new way blocks everyone else out while one decides about redeeming. I wonder how long the timeout is...

So we're waiting for a timeout? Fantastic. GOG have taken my final ninja giveaway, and implemented it as standard, for the game I gave away in that giveaway. Gotta love irony.
