Auto Remove Entry?

Closed
Exactually

I noticed that there are a bunch of giveaways for the same game (such as portal) that end at the same time to a few hours apart. Now, there is an off chance that someone can win multiple giveaways for the same game on the same day (not giving the person a chance to withdraw the entry.) Therefore, can there be an auto remove entry feature in the event that this happens?

Yes, I noticed this as well. The problem is that nothing guarantees that the person who won the 1st or 2nd Portal giveaway will receive his gift. The possible solution would be to limit the user, so he isn't able to enter multiple giveaways of the same game, so he would have to pick one of, in this case, three giveaways.

mawile

i'm entering almost every portal giveaway. it will be a real pain to enter every giveaway after the previous has ended. i don't want to live on this site, clicking buttons every half an hour. and that does not mean, i'm not an active. the chance of someone winning 2 same givaways is far too small to make that horruble system about enetering only one.
that can be easily recalculated in any such cases.
