massive giveaways: a suggestion

But time will be wasted, and huge giveaways like that run out of keys very quick. So maybe by the time the news reaches the public there won't be any keys left and it will be a moot point.

Also, I have an idea to the same effect - a page where users can report free games (not reports as in support tickets, just a page like the uncategorized undiscussion categorizer), and when the amount of reports reaches 500-1000 or smth like that it's automatically added as a free game and all GAs that started ~1 hour after game removal are also removed.

I fail to see the purpose of this suggestion.

You want new threads that involve a mass giveaway (via indiegala for example) to be in a certain section where only admins can see until they allow it to be public? You say this help people find the events but then why does it need to be allowed by the staff? To prevent mass giveaways of the free games? And what about other sources? How are you going to stop it from being advertised on reddit or anywhere else? Or what if someone posts it in the general forum? Are you going to punish them?

Easier solution: remove the game from the giveaway list, which is already being done.

Totally useless...i dont see the point in that..besides..staff should not have more work to care for...i guess they have enough things to take care of.

i don't think admin or mods should deal with this but maybe a new role like Bundler? of course unlike Bundler, it might be a good idea to make several people in charge of this instead of just one person, considering how fast massive giveaways comes and goes.

for all the people saying the admins shouldn't deal with this now, you are right, but as i said, they wanted to see if this idea is supported. this discussion is about whether this should even be worked on.
