Would you like this feature?
no if I had more keys i'd just make a new giveaway and since I don't even enter giveaways why should I care

Sometimes, users end up with additional game copies while a giveaway is in progress and might want to include these extra copies in the same giveaway.
yet still there are people who make multiple identical GAs in a row like same start and end time, level req, same game ofc, same desc etc f%$k knows why (guess making multiple copies GA is so difficult they can't figure it out). Let's make an enforceable rule on putting all your keys in a single GA first and then think about adding copies to running GAs (at least then there'd be a reason to do so). And I see no point in necroing ended GAs with additional keys. why, just why?
EDIT: a little afterthought - we have no way of editing created GAs. not even ones that are planned to start in the future. If anything we should think of this first as there might be instances where some parameters need changing yet still our only option is to raise a ticket to support to delete it and create a new one...

Doing this would cause an issue with another thing users came up with.
I haven't done it myself but apparently if you have multiple keys for a complete product (eg base game + season pass, etc), when you create the giveaway, you don't put any Humble Link or Steam Key, and when the giveaway ends (for 1 winner), you can insert multiple keys (base game + season pass) and the 1 winner will receive all the keys.

Sorry, wasn't I clear?
I mean if there is a package that contains a game plus all DLC (like a season pass) that can be given away on SG but the bundle you got it from has separate keys (one for the base game and one for the season pass which contains all DLC) ... so essentially the exact same thing the package on SG says. You can't put keys down as SG will think you are giving away 2 copies. So instead the creator waits till the giveaway is over and a winner is chosen, then pastes the 2 keys into SG, these then get sent to the winner who activate both keys and gets the complete package that was promised.
If this still isn't clear someone else will have to explain it, my poor little autistic brain can only word it "autistically", and even then this is 3rd hand information, this is what I have been told people do, I haven't done it myself.

you can hide an individual giveaway? I thought you could only hide the game itself and all the giveaways of the same game

Have you considered setting up filters in ESGST based on winning probability? That's what I do. I have several probably-based filters for public giveaways and a separate one that shows all group/whitelist giveaways. Works pretty well for me.

It would be fantastic to have the ability to include extra copies in active giveaways or those that have recently ended - possibly extending this functionality for up to a week after the giveaway has ended.
Sometimes, users end up with additional game copies while a giveaway is in progress and might want to include these extra copies in the same giveaway. Having this feature would eliminate the need to create another giveaway for the same game.
