So, how many?
You might have to.... Cause I'm no where near the 50 range... but I'm twice as many as like 10...

Well, it was just to get an idea, not to pin everyone down to the last game.
...now if only I could remember why I wanted to know this in the first place. :-P

You wanted to buy the most populated category pizza :-)

Argh, how could I forget about Zelgh?
...still, now I'm interested in how many people are in the gap between 500 and him.

Two weeks is not that long. Also, your number of entries is not that high yet. If you reach 1000 without a win, you could consider yourself unlucky. Just keep entering and you will win at some point.

Puzzling helps. Less people make it into those GAs. Your odds increase.

29 won and I enter like several thousands
I totally don't understand how can someone won over 1k+ games
Comment has been collapsed.
The best way to do it is getting into groups and whitelists, which offer much better chances of winning. How do you get into groups? Well, usually by giving stuff away.
Winning 29 games with thousands of entries is actually pretty decent, if you consider only public giveaways.

yah I totally agree. I mean i know the odd of winning game is really slow. I don't complain or anything. I just really surprise that there is a people who won like 1k+ games give that they only join like 2 years ago. I's like average you win 1,2 game every single day

If you look at Zelghadis' wins, you'll see he almost exclusively enters GAs that have good odds, and he enters a lot of them. (Also, he registered almost three years ago, SG is rounding down.)
So yeah, it's totally doable -- you just have to make yourself really popular. I'm presently not interested in winning anything, so this is not my area of expertise. :-)

actually if you consider that noone starts winning GAs daily from the start - you gotta get into groups, whitelists, make yourself a name, grind some CV etc - I am winning ~1.75 Ga per day ;) but a lot of it is just bundle stuff from bundle-exclusive group ;)
Also as Nudiu pointed - SG rounds down your profile age - I'm much closer to being 3 years old (37 days left) that 2 years old ;)
But like I said - groups and puzzles (that's where I started) plus overall forum/community activity (I won't count how many whitelist my Puzzle Guide earned me for example) = GAs with high win chance ;) I basically barely ever enter GAs that have more than 200-300 entries ;)

yup, but I am talking about daily wins :D: It's not so unprobable to win on your 1st day - it's just lucky. But to also win on your 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th day and so on? :> Impossible for a new member - sure there are ppl (me included) who win stuff daily or almost daily - but for anyone it takes time to get to that point, that's why I told yphanh he cannot just take such an average, because it doesn't take into account the period or building your rep and joining groups before you start daily wins ;)

True, true. :) Although I'm not that sure that most people even want to achieve daily wins or just to win that much as you do. I mean, yes, it is great to win raffles, but this collector approach seems to be less common than many would think, probably less than 5% of the entire Steam user base. Most people seem to be content with entering for games they cannot afford to play.
Not counting the scammer/regifter/hoarder for the sake of hoarding types who enter everything, of course. There seem to be no shortage of those on SG…

Using your level to get better odds, eh? THAT'S CHEATING! STOP GIVING AWAY GAMES!

forty three and im very happy about especially considering most have been public giveaways. plus i like round numbers.
Comment has been collapsed.
...but 43 is off by one. How is it round? At least it's prime, I suppose.
Comment has been collapsed.
eww, its very very round, obviously. at least i thought its obvious :/ just look at it for a second, and try to draw a circle around it. You could do it without ease really.
which makes it a round number, obviously.

happy cake day :D:
Plus I'm not really in so many GA groups anymore - one group with mandatory GAs only (well chance for mandatory GA if a dice picks you) and that's it. Other groups I'm currently in are primary social ones and one for Bundle Games that comes ultra useful for getting roid of leftovers and getting something in return :>
Comment has been collapsed.
I only had a quick look, but I saw simultaneous gas in there which I know I tried to join for at least two events and I think I also applied to some of those bundle groups, but not sure which... But then again, I'm nnot sure I would pick myself for anything exclusive either... ;)

Just trying to get a feel for the ranges here. If you think you're at the high end of the scale and you don't mind admitting it, post here.
The highest I've seen so far was one user with 475 wins at the time of writing.The record holder for now is vaipon with 1074. Noice.No GA here, sorry. I can't make a GA with every post.... OK whatever, if you insist. Geez you're pushy. Stop twisting my arm.
