Nice. Just one question:
EDIT: After watching this event for a while, I can definitely say, that it would be nice if the timer was a little shorter and if the chances to open a box would be remembered by the site. E.g. if someone waited a few days, they could open several boxes at once. Because a strict 12 hour cooldown favors those who maximize their chances with a script or by perfect timing.

older giveaways might be left with smaller amount of entries.
Something I can attest to..
And since they're treated as invite giveaways, reaching 5 entries is an actual consideration. :S
Something like (one gift is randomly pulled from the 10 most recently created) and (two gifts are randomly pulled from all gifts) could work, for the front page results. As far as the actual list goes, I suppose there shouldn't be much need to change it from sort-by-creation-time after the front page is tweaked, since that's presumably where most users would be entering from.
I don't think it currently even filters out your own giveaways or ones you've already entered, either, so any sort of random pulling would have to factor in that element as well.

From the OP:
You will see a notification if you cannot open a gift box. This could happen when the giveaway contained within is region restricted, when you do not meet the contributor level requirements, when you already own the game, when you do not own the base game for the DLC, when you have previously won the game, or when you have been blacklisted by the giveaway creator.

Hi SG,
Happy holidays! We have a holiday event starting now and ending on December 25. The event allows users to create custom gift boxes which can be opened by others in the community to reveal giveaways. To get started, follow the below link to browse all of the available gift boxes, or to create one of your own.

How it works
Creating a gift box and giveaway
Opening gift boxes
No spoilers. Please do not share what games you found or what was contained inside of a gift box.
If you have any questions, please ask. I'm looking forward to seeing all the gift box designs. I'll add a few throughout the month with Steam gift cards and games as well. Have fun!
