Idea: Enter more than once for a gift

That's a good idea. If a topic tends to come up a lot, but has already been addressed, putting it in the FAQ would be helpful. People could just point there to explain the situation.

Yea and you know what? Its a terrible idea. If you want that system go to playblink.

So sad, but so true. We have opinions, we can say them. I totally agree with your agreement.

A bit bold statement. Not to diminish your experience in things, but stating that nothing ever changes here week after registration seems exaggerated. Most of these ideas are discussed multiple times in history, so people tend to get a bit fed up with them. Even if they seem new and sparkly for the new members, there might not be that much shine left for the older members.

Because that describes 90+% of the userbase of this website.

Please stop saying some things like this like the other users. You have no idea why these people are here. They could be trying to win a game for a gift for their friend, or maybe they're in a bad economical situation and can't afford games of any kind. Or maybe they're just casual gamers that could really use some new material. Or, like a lot of people, they could just be extremely greedy and want many games to brag about to other people. A lot of people who have no giveaways made are incapable of buying a game they can give away, or they're just plain greedy. So please, stop saying stuff like this.

the same reason because lately, some contributors are acting like dickheads...

Maybe they recently joined? It is irrelevant how many giveaways the person has made. Maybe they're poor and can't afford games at this time. If they're treated well here, once they do have extra money, they may create giveaways to show their appreciation in another way. It doesn't mean their ideas are not any good.

We can have limited number of entries (max. 3-5).

Can you explain how it makes it unfair? Everyone gains points at the same rate. Everyone can save up 300 points. Everyone has equal means, isn't that like the definition of fair?

+1 This is a good idea.

+tons of points Thank you so much!!!

Second point is valid and in my opinion only one mentioned in these threads that supports this cause. Though it is not really the system's fault if people are greedy and enter in giveaways they have no desire to win.

Few notices in general concerning it. At the moment, there is already possibility to do this by entering multiple giveaways. For example if one really wants Magicka, member can enter in all available Magicka giveaways and thus increase possibility of winning by using more points into it.

Counter example for this would be valid if the game at hand is rare e.g. Skyrim and has only one giveaway alive at any time. Highly popular games would likely gather lots of attention. Thus many members would use all of their points into it at the cost of other giveaways. This would likely balance out so one would not get higher chance by using multiple entries as everyone else would be doing it too.

Only case I can think for now where case mentioned earlier would actually work as wanted is when the game is rare and unpopular. Unpopular game would mean higher chance of winning anyway making the point a bit moot.

Exactly what I thought. On another note: why are these "features" always requested by ppl with a comment/entry ration <1?

Make an option to allow/disallow multiple entries.

Also, it should cost a lot more for each consequent entry (double each time ?).

How does it break them exactly? The handful of total entry people can each enter as many times as they want if they feel so inclined to do so. They all still have an equal chance at winning if they so choose.

How is it exploitable?

It would'nt be the same thing. Many points would have gone to the popular games - less points would have been spent for "don't know what to do with my points left after entering this popular game - whatever nearly random clicks to join"

But only people who really want that game would be willing to put 300p towards it. Also, there could be an entry limit, like say, 10 or 20 entries per person, max.
