Since I tried this last year, I thought I'd ask this again this year. *

What are you trying to win and failing miserably at?

Dead Rising 3 - always wanted that one
Dusty's Revenge - 3 pages on that so far
Tales from the Borderlands- 3 pages on that as well Got from the HB
Charlie's Adventures
Mighty No 9 now

Anyone else want to share what they are looking to win?

*Disclaimer- This is NOT a whiner or beggar topic. This is a genuine interest (AKA nosiness) as to what other users are having trouble winning.

Thanks for reminding me about Stardew Vally.
That, Starbound and I've given up on Ark.

Yeah, I think I've entered most (If not all) the ones for Stronghold Crusader... Haven't won any either :(

CowOfDarkness recently added me and sent a gift link for uhm... Narcissu and when I said that I was very grateful but would probably end up buying the bundle because of all the DLC he sent the link for the Season Pass as well, that's like $30 on Steam.

I still managed to excuse myself from accepting the gifts in a, hopefully, respectful way and I strongly suspect they made some other steam-gifter happy :)

hmmm you hit at a bad time.
or really good if you flip it beacause I won/was given most of the stuff I had been entering loads of GA's for. (both puzzle agent's for instance)
by sheer number all thats left would probably be anna's quest. but that's only at 44

everything else is just not given away enough for me to consider it being failing.

(actually if it counts I entered a 5 copy giveaway of neir with like 40 entries and failed that...if we are going by luck and not sheer numbers)

I mean I've given away games I wanted...
sometimes you want a higher quality game for an event reward.

sometimes you give away games you want cause you know you won't get around to playing them anytime soon and want to give someone else a chance instead of adding it to your backlog.
but idk that GA was a week ago and I can't imagin those 5 pages pilled up over the last week.

NieR: Automata
Hollow Knight

Darkest Dungeon
PUBG

I will likely be entering for these ones until I die haha. Or wait until NieR is $20 so my disabled butt can swallow the cost.

No, judging by your comment history people don't have to try to "bait" you. I just wanted to encourage an unusual comment style of yours earlier. That was pretty stupid of me though. I'll go cry in that corner now

I just enter giveaways for bundle stuff that looks good and I've missed in the past. I might once in a while enter a giveaway for a "high profile" game but that's really uncommon. I'm thinking of switching strategies to what seem to be the most common though, only entering for really high profile and expensive stuff :P

Edit: I now realize that I didn't even answer OP question. I have the most trouble winning giveaways with a lot of entries. There :P

Someone gave me Pillars at the beginning of the month. Good game too. Shame the rules don't allow you to win one for someone else. I have a RL friend that wants a copy too. Oh well.

He won't. He doesn't like to link his account anywhere. So I try to help him when I can.

You know, I just realized that I made that post into a begging one.

I need to go and beat myself REALLY hard for that now.

I apologize to all for that and I deserve all the blacklists I get for it.

Pillars of Eternity is still available in Humble Monthly. He could buy the monthly and sell the rest of the games, that should decrease the cost.

He can't. He lost his job a couple of years ago and just had to put in major car repairs this month so he needs what he has to live on.

It's fine. Its hard to get a job these days. And as much as he wants the game, he can wait.

You could, like, buy the monthly for him tho? If you have the cash to spare.
Or you gift him the bundle and tell him to give you all the other games, that way you can gain some games/cv too?

I have no job or money too. BUT, I finally got my long awaited tax refund today and I can take enough for myself to get a Visa gift card. So I'm buying the monthly today.

Finally.
