That'd be a problem. If someone delete a giveaway, the point generated for everyone would be gone (if they don't it would be a terrible way to exploit the site). The logic way it's delete the points too, right? But then not everyone wuold be pleased with that, and compains about mmissing point will fill the forums. And imagine that some users spent those points in another raffles before the first giveaway is deleted.
I dunno, I think it makes more problem that it fices

Given that we know a number of users have dummy accounts setup, this seems to set it up wide open for abuse.
Users created a dozen giveaways of 50pt games on their dummy account, spends points generated from it on their real account. Deletes giveaways on dummy account.

I've been seeing too many retards about randomly posting giveaways that aren't real. For example:
• http://www.steamgifts.com/giveaway/IzTnJ/world-of-goo
• http://www.steamgifts.com/giveaway/79Ur5/minecraft
Both by the same failure.
There should be an option where the creator of the giveaway can delete the giveaway within 15 - 30 minutes (1 hour at the most) of creating it, but that comes with a cost. When you delete a giveaway you will automatically receive a negative rep (or something along the lines of a 'Not Received') to their profile. Maybe even a loss of points too. When a giveaway is deleted when there are users entered in it, obviously, their points shall be refunded.
Anybody else have suggestions or feedback on the idea?
