adambiser: Thank you for that, but how would that work out? I thought that prizes have to be Steam-redeemable and that SteamGifts moderators sometimes check that a prize was redeemed.
I can't find anything in the rules regarding it and, if I think about it, they allow bundle gift URLs regardless of whether the person actually redeems the Steam keys...
Just some random thoughts out loud...
EDIT: "how" not "who"...
Cleidophoros: How would it work? I will send you the game through Gamersgate, you download and play. Simple as that. I can't find anything in the rules regarding it and, if I think about it, they allow bundle gift URLs regardless of whether the person actually redeems the Steam keys...

Steamgifts allows Minecraft and BF3 to be gifted; they are not Steam redeemable. I don't see why they are special.
As long as no one complains about a GG giveaway I don't think they will do anything. I take responsibility (giveaway clearly says that the games are from GG) in case they check the winner's profile for the game but again; they won't unless someone complains. There are about a million users at the site; they can't just go and check the prizes even if they wanted to.
THey check specifically if the gifter complains that the receiver hasn't redeemed it.
But again, as far as I know this is only for public giveaways.
Private & group giveaways have more relaxed rules...
