I'm not entirely convinced -> in cases like this, where someone has more than 1 giveaway ending at the same time, there has been a, well, high number of same people winning more than 1 giveaway. But I see it as a quirk rather than a bug.

Really? Never seen that before here; I suppose it is pseudo-random after all.

I had 45 giveaways end at the same time. The number of entries ranged from 40 to 300. I had 2 instances of people winning three giveaways, and 3 or 4 instances of people winning two of the giveaways.

I don't think the algorithm used here is completely random. It generates the seed from somewhere

It's a bug, i saw many wins as this if you create most giveaway with same finish hour.

1 in 120,000 chance of winning both giveaways assuming they're independent. That said, applying odds retrospectively is a bit of a no-no.

Random is random, lucky get lucky.

I hope they don't use only the time as seed :o

Maybe I should try to work out their algorithm!

Good thing you blackened out the user who won your giveaways ... it's not as if everyone can visit your profile :P

One of my winers once won a base game and then the bundle,too. Its just a game of statistics. Unlikely? Yes. Impossible? No

There are a bit too many "unlikely" winners that crop up when giveaways end at the same time.

Unfortunately, giveaways dont report the exact time of ending, otherwise I would go through all of mine. I'd be willing to bet that the number of multiple winners I have is statistically significant.

Never happened to me. The case I reported had a week difference.

I have 70 instances of giveaways that ended at the same time. I had 8 or 9 multiple winners, winning a total of 20 of the giveaways.
