One hour left notification

Uhhhh, that would be a lot of emails...

I think for me, checking occasionally is just fine, but I don't enter much anyway.

For all steam gifts which are going to end in 1 hour?

Couldn't you just set alarm that dings every hour?

Won't you need to check your notifications every hour, though? lmao

Would it not be much more useful, if Steamgifts enters you in all those giveaways automatically?

I don't see the point in that. Personally, I check sg 1-2 times a day and have not encountered any problems.

For all games or wishlisted games?
(i could use it for one hour limited wishlisted games but I hate trash emails that just useless and having space on mails)

Having a quick look at my "all games" page that would currently be 10 mails per hour, and looking at the page without filtering games I own that seems like 20 mails an hour. With this frequency you could just check the site often. That sounds excessive

There are over 12,000 public giveaways every month and you only have enough points to enter around 1000-1500 of them. You want everyone on the site to get emails every hour about every game that is going to end that they did not enter? You must have meant something else because that is crazy and fairly pointless.

Well, I do not need to enter all... also after I started selecting what games I would really like play and do not plan buy them, I enter like 5 giveaways per day. Now I have like 10 entered. No need to hoard....

i think better every 30 min

İf options are added it might can be better(just thought it Bec they're easily solvable problems)
On off
All games ,wishlisted games,dlcs,groups etc(box for these so you can choose only one of them or all of them)
İf you have points
Notification for each games or notification for time limited games at once(as a warning )(so I'll get one email not 20 email )
For now I'll add later if i have other ideas
İt would be better if there's a app but it's not possible much

that might actually be the worst idea i've ever heard.

Too much hassle, spamming e-mails in your inbox about every ga. There is a tons of GAs that ending every hour and every hour you will get e-mails about that? This is just unsustainable. Besides its not the end of the world that you miss a chance to enter some GA, what is even the point to enter so many giveaways?

I've never seen a better case of someone begging for an intervention, because they are too addicted to SG.

Good luck that cg program such a thing for the very low ammount of people that "need" that "function".

You will never have enough point to enter any of this, especially when new bundle arrives and 90% of people put the GA for 1h only...
And if 1 GA = 1 email...my god the spam....

On one hand, I understand you -- I personally would love to have the minimum duration of a GA extended to 1 day, in order not to have that feeling of "missing" something.

On the other hand -- while it is true that you miss on many short GAs because you cannot be online all the time, on the few occasions you do see one of them, your chances are much higher, right? "Look, a 1 hour GA, and I was here to enter it, exciting!"

So it boils down to: would you rather enter 5 GAs, having a 0.2% chance to win each, or 1 GA, having a 1% chance to win it (missing the other 4 because you were not online then)? I would argue the 2nd option is better -- you have (nearly) the same chance of winning, but spend less points on it, so you can focus on games you really want to play.

Just my 2 (per) cents. :D

Cheers!

i can see that you are thinking only about what you want (idk why you want that but don't care) but you should think about system, performance, costs of something like this too - yes sending one or few emails shouldn't be too restrictive in costs/performance of site, but you are talking about thousands or even more emails per hour! if that amount of emails are sent from this site with different logic, filters, etc, it would require quite a lot of resources that would be taken away from us using this site. adding more resources, would require more money etc.

ideas are good usually but this is one of the stupidest i've seen :D and i've been here for a long time :)

If you're that obsessed with entering every giveaways on Steamgifts, I'm sorry to say you're probably the problem, not the website. :P

You would very likely get a notification every hour at a minimum, which you can just setup yourself on your PC/phone in the form of an alarm and such (as was suggested by another user here).

I'll tongue map you. Going round here mapping tongues and trying to give people extra work.
