It's a good idea, and I think that those who give games here should have more opportunities to win. I only see one problem, the massive influx of points for users. I went to sleep last night with less than 10 points, I woke up with 300. Then I started entering some giveaways when I woke up, and in a period of 5 minutes, I ended up entering ~350 points worth of giveaways. The non-contributor giveaways are becoming near impossible to win. I guess we deserve it for not giving away games (I'll give some away when I earn some money, but that'll probably take until I graduate from college...), but it's becoming kind of ridiculous. I guess that's just me, though. Sorry if this seems like a complaint, I don't mean it to be, it's more of an observation (I appreciate the site and what it stands for, thanks to everyone who can afford to donate games).

The system is good, just blame the people who raided SG with bundle keys.

I understand why contributors should have a better chance of winning but lately non contributors have a really bad chance of winning. people are hitting the 300 cap to quickly then entering giveaways for games they might never play. I saw a post somewhere where a guy had a really good idea, if you win a giveaway you are banned from entering more giveaways until you put so many hours into the game you won. This might spark controversy, but what do you think of the idea ?? Also I love the site and the people who run, keep up the good work.

This can be easily cheated by opening the game and going for a jog. Idling would totally defeat this.
Not to mention that some games can be played offline or some people don't want to set their profiles to public and we shouldn't force them.

This is essentially the case for me. I've got my main desktop computer which is older, and cannot play most of my games, but I've got a laptop that can play them that's in offline mode (so my main computer can be online on Steam) therefore people seem to think I don't play any of the games I won.

You're seriously complaining about poor odds of winning FREE games as a non-contributor, that required nothing on your part but to log in, and click a few buttons? Really? Realllllllly?
Complainers like you and others are why you're gonna see more and more contributor only giveaways.

Besides being upset you don't qualify, I'm having a hard time seeing the downside to them. I think they're a great idea that promote gifting. The majority of give-a-ways don't require you to give anything back, but if you do you get a little bonus. It's nice.
