## Frequently asked questions

### Is GiveawayBot free?

Yes — open source under Apache-2.0, with 20 concurrent giveaways per server, up to 20 winners each, from 10 seconds to 2 weeks.

### Can GiveawayBot require a role to enter?

No. It runs open-to-everyone draws. Vetox supports entry conditions by role and by account age, plus a blacklist.

### How do I stop alt accounts entering?

Set a minimum account age and require a role that takes time to earn — a level role works well — and blacklist specific accounts that pass both.

### What if a result is disputed?

Vetox logs each draw so the entry pool and outcome can be checked. A giveaway with no record leaves a contested result unresolvable.
