a well balanced timer would give too many points in lean times and too few in booms. right now its based on when things are added(5%) so booms like now get a ton of points, bigger booms like when an unasterisked bundle slips though comes in give even more points. a better way to get what you'd want would be suggesting a higher proportion, like 10%
5 seems plenty to me tho

Have it so that when you hit the enter giveaway button it checks to see if you have points before redirecting you (if you have 0 points and remove an entry for some points to use on another game that you have open in another window you have to refresh the page or it thinks you have no points).

Get games reviewed as in if somebody has actually purchased a copy of a game that was in a bundle he/she can produce proof of the purchase and get contrib value for those games. This was if somebody has a legit separate (outside the bundle) key/gift of that game, he can make giveaway and enjoy contrib value for it.

A late addiction to this thread: I'd love to have the possibility to make multi-group giveaways.
At the moment the only way to do this is making it private and share it only with the groups, either in chat or in the group pages. The problem with this is that usually those places are public, so there's a high chance of extraneous people entering, bringing more work to the creator, that has to check wether the winner is actually in the group, and to the Support, that in case of problems have to reroll the winner.

Well, since we're doing thread necromancy, I'd like a more sophisticated reply notification system. One that would contain a link to the post that is being replied to, not just the topic. One that would notify me of replies to comments made on giveaways too.
And yes, multi-group giveaway would be great.

People get boners for a high comment:entry ratio, because apparently you're a horrible person if you don't comment in every giveaway you enter.
I mean sure, it's polite to say thanks, but sometimes you're opening a bunch of entries in different tabs, you cycle through and enter them all, then you're called away from the computer and by the time you return you've forgotten you never had a chance to say thanks.

Removing the ability to create contributor giveaways that require twice the contributor value the giveaway creator has. Maybe it doesn't matter much, but it seems a bit hypocritical to me. I haven't figured out a valid reason to allow it yet, but I suppose there is one.
Edit: Contrary to what a lot of people think, I actually think we gain points too quickly. If you only check the site once a day and use up your 300 points then, every time you check the site you'll have 300 points back. I think it would be better to regen points more slowly, forcing us to pick and choose what we want to enter very carefully, ensuring that more people only enter giveaways for games that have a high interest in.

The thing I'd change the most is the way forum posts and comments are displayed. Like the ability to hide individual posts or entire threads. Perhaps it could be incorporated into SG+ so it doesn't bog down the site with all the hidden topics.

Something specific, not vague like "fix the contributor system", or jokes like "make me win every giveaway", or "get rid of leechers". Maybe more than anything you want to see giveaway replies on the "Replies" screen, or maybe you just want the background to be orange.
What would you change right now? Feel free to +1 if someone said your thing.
