What is your SteamGifts White Whale?

Seems Vampyr, 134, and Prey, 121, are neck and neck and I've missed more than a few of either

There are three which spring to mind as being particularly enticing yet elusive: Katana ZERO, Wingspan and Sephonie.

Superliminal, although I don't see a lot of giveawaways for it

Probably 112 Operator, I can't win this game I swear

Hmm... I'd say Baldur's Gate 3 is the first thing that springs to mind - but, looking at my entry history, I've entered for Terraformers an ungodly amount of times recently, but it still eludes me.

Interesting... I expected to have a battle of entry records between the 2 LEGO Harry Potter, that Duke Nukem Clone DLC, and Skyrim++ (>100 by adding Legendary + Special Edition) but no... Far far ahead, I found it again: since day one, my Nemesis, my Arch-enemy, the one and only... DOOM!!!

View attached image.

I just want something short, sweet and charming, like the Frog Detective games. I've been entering a ton of giveaways for both, but have yet to win either. I'd play them ASAP.

I've yet to win patch quest after 168 entries, also 911 and 112 operator I know I have a ton of entries in as well, yet no luck.

It's not my most sought after game or anything, there are plenty of others I would rather own, but I don't know how I haven't won Cook, Serve, Delicious 2 by now. I have 1 and 3, and according to SteamGifts I have entered in 681 giveaways for number 2. Still nothing. That is some pretty crazy odds.

my first thought was Icewind Dale: Enhanced Edition - 197 entries
or Graveyard Keeper - 174

but after checking few pages of my entries i found this top 3:
GRIP: Combat Racing - 432
Hollow Knight - 416
How to Survive 2 - 300

special mention for aragami - 152 before i got key from trading site:)
Aragami 2 for now just 36 entries but still raising

Mine is Behind the Frame. Btw, amazing to see the generosity in this discussion :).

Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night is probably the one for me. I'm a big sucker for Metroidvanias and I played through all of GBA/DS Castlevania games.

Here for many years, and hard to check history but from recent memory
But i traded for TABS after trying 81 ones
and still have hope for
Lair of the Clockwork God (68)

Mine must be
Home Sweet Home (44)
The Entropy Centre (34)
Behind the Frame (110)
Afterimage (44 recently) THANKS Chris76de for the game!!
Golden Light (189 )
Twin Mirror (80)
Arcade Paradise (195)
Agatha Christie - Hercule Poirot (recently)

I do not especialy want that game, but The Last Tinker™: City of Colors is my White Whale. I drown so many points in that game it is impossible to do not win it. But still..

A Plague Tale: Innocence (140)
Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice (130)
WWE 2K23 (58)

Last time I won here was 5 months ago lol

Bang Bang Racing, with 270+ entries. Been trying to get it for years since it ended up in a bundle. Its a game made by digital reality, a hungarian company who made games of my childhood, like imperium galactica, afrika korps vs desert rats and platoon
I will enter every single giveaway I see, even take point out of other ones so I get one more chance for it

Been insta-entering recently for all the coromon, afterimage and visual novels like frog detectives, Minute of Islands, creepy tale, kraken academy, scheming through zombie apocalypse, the pillars of earth, red lantern, citizen sleeper, beacon pines, and walking dead series. But no luck so far since the probabilities are low haha, I might strike lottery before actually winning one.
I'm tempted to cave in by skipping lunch but I can't seem to find the vn bundle on fanatical anymore :/ I think it expired
Alternatively, I am waiting for the next visual novel sale to come, which is like so far away oops

My eternal white whale is Syberia 3: 422 tries and nothing :)

Life Is Strange: True Colors

How do you check which game has the most of your entries?

Eufloria.

I'm happy to see it come up again at some point in the future and go for it then.

Easy enough to buy but it was the first game I saw here that looked super cool and it's even been rereleased with a HD version in the decade I've been here. When I finally win it I think I will say a big thank you to SG and leave a happy person.

I do not buy bundles, and most games I enter are from my wishlist. So of course there are big titles like Nioh2, RE Village and Metal gear 5, but since there are way fewer giveaways for those, they do not entry on the list.

Top 5 games by number of entries:

Beholder (14P) (Repeated 487 times)
Overgrowth (20P) (Repeated 286 times)
Kerbal Space Program (40P) (Repeated 275 times)
Portal Knights (20P) (Repeated 254 times)
Party Hard (10P) (Repeated 253 times)

Top 5 recently bundled games that I've been trying to win
Symphony of War: The Nephilim Saga (20P) (Repeated 74 times)
Coromon (20P) (Repeated 70 times)
Citizen Sleeper (20P)(Repeated 68 times)
Afterimage (25P) (Repeated 60 times)

And because I said I was going to drop it here: Using ABSIC know-how and a lot of ChatGPT, I made two scripts for tampermonkey.
If anyone could double check the scripts just to ensure the safety for other members, it would be appreciated.

script 1 paste bin - https://pastebin.com/2yzT3U45
script 2 paste bin - https://pastebin.com/z1ph24hC

One script is responsible for the creation of the result display and listening to script 2, which actually does the work of fetching all the data.
To use it, go to page https://www.steamgifts.com/giveaways/entered
There will be a green button on the lower left for "Retrieve column headings" (yeah... I was too lazy to tailor it prettily) . Upon clicking on it, it will ask you how many pages should it fetch data. There are 50 entries per page, so just calculate how many you would like to check (200 would give you the past 10k entries)/ There is a 1-second delay between fetching each page result, so the more pages you ask for, the longer it will take to show you a result.
