Please be patient, there are only a few mods.

If it's a programming related problem then there's only 1 person (cg) to fix it, so it may take a while ;)

In the meantime you can try this: create a private (!) giveaway and let it start 1 day later and tell us if this works for you.
Simply do not give the link to this private giveaway to anyone and there will be no penalty or other problems if the giveaway ends without anyone entering.

It's absolutely fine to set them up in advance like that. They won't show up in the main giveaway list (since they're "Coming Soon" and not "Open") until they start, and it's one less thing to worry about, essentially, because it will start automatically.

Just hit the 'now' button, if that fails add 1 minute on to whatever it automatically puts in.

Steps to do:

    1. Set both start and end to now.
    1. Set the end 1 hour after.

You can't set end to now. It always ends up min 1h after "now"
