I wasn't too upset though, was a bunch of puzzle giveaways. I solved it, believe there were.... 6 games in the puzzle chain? I won one with 1 entry, won another with 3 entries, lost the other 3 entry one, and didn't enter the others. And just happened to get the game I lost with 3 entries for free as a steam key from a website an hour or so ago. It all works out. Trust me, I wasn't upset that day! More amused then anything ^^ If I'd have won all 3 low entry ones in one go, I'd have felt BAD.

I may have lost a giveaway with 2 entries. Either way, I've lost several giveaways with less than 10 entries.
EDIT: Confirmed that 2. Puzzle giveaway for Cogs.

I saw a thread a day or so ago which asked people to post the worst odds they've managed to overcome, e.g. what is the most entries on a giveaway you've won.
That inspired me to this: What public (can be contributor or non-contributor, may not be group/private) giveaway have you entered and lost, where you actually had amazing odds to win?
Mine is this Magicka giveaway, thus far. Only 99 entrants, myself included. Plus, two copies, therefore I had a 2.02% chance of winning...but didn't.
This isn't an extreme example, I hope to see some though!
EDIT: A good way to figure out your best odds you've failed to overcome is to visit this page and look for either incredibly low numbers of entrants or an incredibly high number of copies.
