Hi all,
so now the default Level for giveaway is 0, when you create a new giveaway.

My suggestion is to make default level = your current level.

Why?
Currently there are some 855k of users on Level0, while on my Level5 there's only 5k users.
In order to make this a default, it will motivate people to:

  • giveaway more on current (higher) levels
  • players who are here "only to get games", to start giving games back in giveaways & level up

You can still slide the slider left to Level0. But that's an "extra job".

So instead of sliding the slider to the right to create a higher lvl ga,as it is now, you will be able to slide it to the left i you want to create a lower lvl ga.
Seems pretty same to me except if you are bored to set your ga to your lvl. But that doesn't seem enough to me to make it default. Except if you only want to create giveaways for your lvl only, in which case it saves you like 1-2secs.

Current system is fine.

Well, the optimal behavior would be to remember the last setting used. Setting it to anything but what one commonly uses is the same as leaving it at 0.

This is what matters to site designers.

The only real question is whether to remember the user's own stated preference or to set a default.

And if the answer is to set a default, level 0 is the one that makes the most sense.

Got better idea. Site should check what is current level of user: "KLiKzg" and set default level for giveaway accordingly.

I agree too. It seems to me a good idea.

Nah, I would prefer being able to set the default level somewhere in the settings, I guess maybe there are addons that do that but still better than having to slide it left every time I want to make a giveaway.

Or rather just set a default level of one's choice... I make giveaways between level 0 to 2, having a needlessly high level is useless. I personally would be happier with changes that promote winning wanted games, instead just inflating the levels but still giving to hoarders who just want it for the +1.
