I would be especially interested in something like "Only for people who won less than X giveaways".
With that you could make giveaways for people who already gave away a couple games but still didn't won any.

Other options could be something like "Has bean a member since X" or "Has less than X games on steam".
I know you could make a steam group with special rules for that but it would be way easier if it would be implemented in the site.

I don't know how difficult it would be to implement something like that but it's a really nice feature I have seen on other sites and it would be great if SG would add more option for that :)

Would you be interested in more restrictions for giveaways than just contributor level/groups/invite only?

Yes, sounds like a good idea.
Nah, it's fine.

You can always join / create a group for restricted giveaways :) still a nice idea!

That is the one I'm mostly interested in. Maybe somebody else has some good ideas for more but I would be totally fine with just getting that one.

So long as you cleared it with Support, you could make a private giveaway with special rules, and link to it from a forum thread explaining the entry criteria.

You would probably end up with a few re-rolls, though...

There is no need to add more feature, we already got this, ask staff if your rule it's ok and set a private giveaway.

I suggested it long ago. Yes, the "won less than x" condition would be quite useful.

You mean more restrictions than "I can invite whoever I want" and "I can mail support and set up whatever rule I want"?

It being implemented into the site, even if it only covers a few more options frees up support to do more important shit. Saves them from the rerolls post giveaway as well.

How often do these kinds of giveaways pop up though? I'm not sure development time is worth the one or two instances a year someone makes these type of giveaway.
