Punctuation please.
I cant read what you are trying to say because it is just one big long run-on sentence with random capitalization in places and bunched up into one big nasty looking paragraph so really I cant help you because I dont even fully understand what it is that you are trying to ask here but if Im getting the gist of it right no I dont like the ideas you are proposing but then again I cant even be sure of what you are proposing anyways

An attempt and punctuating and re-wording your post so it makes sense. I attempted to keep re-wording to a minimum but I'm not sure if that was really possible.
"I've got ideas but I am not sure if any of these will get added to the site. You cannot join a giveaway when it has an hour remaining. After you join a giveaway and if you change your mind and don't want to participate in the givaway you'll have 3 minutes to remove your entry for it and get your points back. After it has been 3 minutes your points will be locked in. After it's been locked a bar will pop up under the Entries and every few minutes there will be a green bar that goes up to show what chance as a percentage (%) you might win the giveaway. When it says 100 percent for you and another person has 100 percent too, it will pick a random person and that guy will win it. Wouldn't it be cool if there was a percent bar that tells you you might win or not rather then just luck?"

1) It's easy to convert a faction to a percentage.
2) Wut?

I think I can translate retardese
then the rest hurts my brain but I think it has something to do with the percentage somehow increasing over time? then when you reach 100% you win but if multiple people have 100% then it picks at random who should win out of those with 100%

Agreed. If someone does a giveaway that's made for an hour or less, well.. no one can enter then, right?
I actually think having the option to cap the amount of entries to a giveaway would be better, so I might want a giveaway that only 100 people could enter.. I guess that would bring up more issues though in itself.

It might as well end at the hour mark then
though the 3 minute rule I can kinda dig as it would kinda prevent users from skipping from giveaway to giveaway using the same points if the number of entries looks high to one that is a bit lower (would give others a better chance)

As long as people don't use the ability to remove entries to "bank" points in an attempt to cheat their way around the point cap, I see no problem with it.
In fact, the ability to remove entries have two big advantages, and a minor one:
1 - You may enter a giveaway, and after that you may get that same game (either through another giveaway or not), so a decent guy would remove his entry in the giveaway in this case.
2 - You may enter a giveaway, and after that realize it's probably fake... and maybe it's a short one, so the odds of a mod removing it in time are low.
3 - I look through the giveaways in order, entering the ones of the games I'm interested... and suddenly I come across that Skyrim giveaway I was waiting for... but I'm short 10 points... oh, come on! let me remove one of my previous entries so I can enter this one! (based on a true story)

Even if you get through the retarded expression of the idea all you find is are ideas that are so stupid they make how they were expressed look intelligent.

"wen it says 100 percent for you and a guy has 100 percent too it will pick random for you and that guy will it be cool if there was a percent bar that tells you you might win or not then just luck?"
Okay, moving past the terrible English, and lack of punctuation and grammar, there is a overarching problem here. This isn't possible.
It's luck of the draw who wins. But the percentage you're talking about would be simple math. That could be done, but it would be pointless. As people enter the giveaway, your percentage chance of winning goes down.
The equation to find the percentage would be as follows:
1 (you) DIVIDED by the number of entered persons TIMES 100
If you were the only entrant, then it would be 1 / 1 100 , which would equal 100 percent.
If there was 1 other entrant, then it would be 1/ 2 100 , or 50 percent
If there were 200 total entrants (a more realistic steamgifts example) it would be 1 / 200 * 100 or 0.5 percent chance of winning.
The more entrants, the lower the chances of winning. It really is just luck. So doing the math to make a bar to show you would be pointless coding. Your odds of winning can not go to 100 unless you're the only person entered in the giveaway when it ends.
