Do you think like putting to difrent games into one giveaway ?

Yeah I didn't think that one through, sorry. Also additionally for some kind of threshold option should be implemented, like: Can't own more than 3 (of 7) games to enter. Where 3 is the user defined limit and 7 is just the number of games total in that bundle. If you don't meet that threshold then it shows as exist in your account.

I actually like this idea quite a bit. It allows the person making the giveaway a bit more choice in who they give their game to. I am sure that some people wouldn't want ANY of their games going to someone who already has them, but I am also sure there are plenty of others who wouldn't mind.

Good idea with the
"Here's game X and DLCs Y and Z!"

A minus side:
For example of your oblivion/morrowind example, think the fact if someone owns the another game already, so in this case he probably can't enter becouse he have the another game as it says "exists in your acc", tho I dont know how it would be then

Have the option to give away multiple games to either a single person or multiple people.
In the case of DLC, require the winner have the base game, the site already does this check.
In the event of a base game, require the winner to not have it, site already does this check.
EX. Person enters giveaway for Borderlands + 2 DLCs. Has original game and no dlc. Removed from the main game's lotto list, but kept in the DLC's lotto list. Person 2 has main game and one of the DLCs, is removed from those two item's lottos, but kept in the third. This could be an optional setting when creating a giveaway. As can entry limits, and if the giver wants to ignore the fact an entrant already has the game/s they are giving away.
In essence each item becomes a separate giveaway, but is labeled in a single entry on the giveaways page. Would be nice to enter a giveaway to complete DLC packs or something.

That is a very good question. It would be "great" if you could enter only for games you do not have (e.g. I have HIB 2 but I do not have HIB 1 and the giveaway is for both so I would like to enter for the first one also). Right now, if HIB2 includes HIB1 no one would even see that in the giveaway, save along for being able to enter. In terms of subtraction that should not be a problem as than you only spend part of the points the giveaway costs. Of course, HIB is also a "bad" example, because after redeeming the giftable URL you would be left with spare copy of HIB2, which you do not need and would have to re-roll (the Steam-key at least).
It "might" be better to create "meta-giveaways" instead. So that one could create a giveaway list and post it (e.g. Here's Elder Scrolls Collection->Click the link-> see a list of separate giveaways for each part->click link of the part you want-> enter the giveaway "as normal").

I'd like to see the ability to give away multiple games with one giveaway. The possibilities for such a giveaway are fairly numerous. Examples:
"Missed Humble Bundle #12345? Win this giveaway and get games X, Y, and Z!"
"I wanted to give away the Elder Scrolls Collection, but I couldn't afford it, so here's Morrowind and Oblivion!"
"Here's game X and DLCs Y and Z!"
Thoughts?
EDIT: Reasons why "make the giveaway for one of the games and post the others in the description" isn't such a great solution:
1: Only one game shows up on the main page. If I offer games X, Y, and Z, but only game X is listed on the main page, people interested in games Y and Z but not X will likely skip the giveaway, never knowing what they had a chance to win.
2: Only one game counts as "exists in your account." If I offer games X, Y, and Z, but only game X is listed in the actual giveaway, people with game X can't join for the chance to win games Y and/or Z.
3: Only one game counts towards the entry cost. If I offer games X, Y, and Z which each cost $20, but only game X is listed in the actual giveaway, the giveaway will cost 20p to enter, despite the games' total cost being $60.
