Can the Ignore Giveaway function be made to show a check box next to GAs , so that i could ignore numerous GAs without having to reload the page every single time ? Seems more efficient this way.

Good idea or bad ?

I was thinking this as well. It'd be great to have a function where you can upload your own custom text file too.

Or at the very least take us back to our position in the list and not back to the top of the page.

I didn't like the way it is when I first started using it, but after a few days I have almost every game I don't want already selected and there are very few to select now. I have over 600 selected. If you have a lot to do, it can take some time, but once you get through them you never have to do them again and it's no longer an issue.

If they do decide to do this, I am sure they are so busy right now it will take a while to implement it and by then I would imagine like 90% or more of the people that use the site will have most of the games selected already and it will only help the new people who create accounts here. It would be good for the new members though.

Hi

Till the right solution here is a little workaround. And sorry for my english :)
With this method you can ignore more games quite quickly.
Use chrome+tampermonkey with the 'hide entered giveaways' script and all the available hide options that are in the steamgifts settings too.
This way you will only see the available (unentered) giveaways.
Start the multi-ignore-process with the giveaway on the bottom of the screen (not the page!!!).
If done, get the next one above it and so on. Process to the top.
If meanwhile the page reloads then you will barely notice it if at all, cause you are full top on the page and no flickering.
If SG is in a fast reloading state (less users I think) then wait for the reload.
If reloads are slow then you can ignore 3-4 games in one streak :)
And set a smaller font for even more games on the screen !

Two things to care of:
1) if a new game enters right between the ones you want to ignore then you may accidentally ignore that too when you do this method fast and like a robot. So don't be a robot. Or be it. Whatever, I told you :)
2) like the first one but with games you don't want to ignore but you don't want to enter (yet) either

And a third for extra :)
3) don't scroll the page down for obvious reasons :)
