shorter giveaway time limit?

This would be interesting to try out but we could run into the problem of people telling friends there going to put it on then put a realy short time limit just long enough for all there friends to enter and barely anyone else.

Create an hour long private giveaway, but only drop the link minutes before the GA ends.

you can simply stay in the page where you choose the giveaway time and create it shorter
select time and make it 1 hour long but dont press 'create giveaway'
45 minutes later, create the giveaway and it will be 15 minutes long :P

"[EDIT}
read some posts so...
i would like this to be available for short public giveaways not private stuff where it could be exploited, maybe restrict it to public only?"

Forgive me for being dense, but how on earth could this be exploited? I'm not sure if you understand exactly how CV functions-- it is rewarded equally throughout public, group, and private GAs

I feel if there are shorter time limits on public giveaways, that will just invite more and more bots to constantly query the site looking for giveaways. I think an 1 hour minimum is a good thing.

It would be nice to create GAs that start when the first person has entered.

I'd love to open up a 2 seconds Skyrim GA

Na, I think the minimum should stay at one hour, it's pretty good that way.

I think a minimum time of 5 or 10 minutes would be great, anything lower would be a no from me though...

How about increasing the maximum time limit to one year?

well feeling obligated to check SG once every hour is addictive enough, lowering that time to 5 min would be pain in the ass, no thanks.. if you want to make a giveaway for 5 min soo bad, just pake it private and post the link 5 min before ending.

Choose your own time; troll giveaways as a result.

There's no need for shorter time limits, so there is no reason that it would be changed.

That would be really fun and interesting. If friends wanted to give to each other they could just form a private giveaway or a group.
