All I know is that...
Higher Steam level = Higher drop chance.

and the more games you are eligible for, the better the chance as well.

My girlfriend is level 37 and only gets a booster about every 2 or 3 weeks. It seems that level has a lot to do with chances of getting a pack.

The more games you are eligible, the more cards you earned, the more badges you crafted, so basically the higher your level.

Log into steam often and wait for packs for games you own that have cards.

Is it possible to get foils if you have the card sets but dont have the game?

If you don't have the game you won't be eligible for drops so you won't get foil cards.

You can only get booster packs for games you own, and games that you've gotten all the card drops from.

You won't lose eligibility at 00:01 am Monday. You will only lose it if you don't log in from Monday to Sunday.

Leveling up helps a lot, so does having a lot of games that are eligible for booster drops. Every 10 levels gives you an extra 20% chance of getting boosters. You're a level 14 with 56 games total, that's why you're not getting many drops.

so in order to get cards you have to get cards and use them up. So while you are losing cards to level you might get more cards.

chances improve

e.g. 10% chance on level 60 would be actually 22% not 120%

Actually a booster pack is dropped on a random steam user every time a badge is crafted.

Yes, they are. But chances are YOU will not get one, out of the millions of people on Steam random chance isn't exactly in your favor.

Craft a badge of game X generates a booster pack of game X and drops to someone who is eligible for booster pack drop for game X.
