Four doors, four giveaways

Hover your mouse over each door to hear part of the soundtrack of each giveaway game. You can only pick one door, one time!
After you chose one, you will get the matching sgtools link -- no going back, so choose wise..
If you entered more than one giveaway, I'll consider you a cheater.


Alright, since all the giveaways have ended, below the games that were behind the doors and the soundtrack! :)

Game Full Soundtrack Door Track
Never Alone (Kisima Ingitchuna) Never Alone: Original Soundtrack Arctic Fox
Mini Metro Mini Metro: RMX KIT Back to Work
This War of Mine This War of Mine OST Some Place We Called Home
Ori and the Blind Forest Ori and the Blind Forest Main Menu (feat. Aeralie Brighton)

Below are also some statistics for who is interested in them! Taken roughly one hour before the giveaways ended.

Door Game Chosen by URLs seen in SGTools GA Entries Invalid entries
0 No giveaway 53 (1%) - - -
1 Never Alone 767 (21%) 316 177 1
2 Mini Metro 761 (21%) 420 279 1
3 This War of Mine 952 (27%) 555 411 1
4 Ori and the Blind Forest 1059 (29%) 938 795 3
Total entries Single entries Double entries Triple entries All four entered
1662 1560 72 17 13

Due the initial capacity problems and also later technical problems when switching to Cloudflare (which by accident allowed some to enter twice), I've decided to let the double entries slide. Members who entered three or all four doors or who did not get to the giveaway by the sgtools-link are now welcomed to my blacklist and excluded from future events - clearly they don't appreciate the concept or don't understand it. I'm very happy that the most of you (94%) played by the rules however! I wish I could all whitelist you, but sadly there is not enough room :( But do expect another event in the future for sure :) Also thanks for the many whitelistings I've received during this event. Although I'm not entering many whitelist giveaways (my backlog is big enough already :P), I appreciate the gesture! ^^

Thank you all for your interest and participation! :) Hope to see you in a future event :)

Doesn't matter if you can only win one, you still increase your odds greatly of winning at least one of them if you enter them all.

If each GA has 200 total entries and you enter only one of the four, your chance to win is 0.5%
If you enter all four GAs, your chance of winning at least one of them increases to almost 2%, so yes, I would say that is greatly increasing your odds of winning (by almost 4 times).

So you are saying that if I flip a coin 4 times, the chance of getting heads at least one of those times is still 50%? Of course not.

Here is some info on the formula to use to determine the odds of "at least one":
http://math.stackexchange.com/questions/72589/calculating-probability-of-at-least-one-event-occurring

P.S. By the way, the chance of getting heads at least one time out of four is actually 93.75%!

He is right, though. Remember, he said almost 2%. If you'd enter 4 giveaways with 200 entries each your chance to win at least once is 1-(199/200)^4=0.01985049937~1.985%. That's basically 2%.

Thanks for the confirmation, you posted this while I was composing my response below. And I didn't even take a math-physics class!! :-)

I never said that 200 GAs/200 entries is 100% chance of win.

My calculations are sound. The coin analogy is also sound. Think of it as a GA with only 2 total entries instead of a coin flip if you need to.

Since you study in math, here is the formula to use:

1-PRODUCT(GA1,GA2,GA3,GA4)

Where GA1-4 are the odds of LOSING each GA, so if the odds of losing each GA are the same, 50% (0.5) then the odds of winning at least one of those GAs is:

Chance of winning is 1/2 = 0.5, so the chance of losing is 1 - 0.5 = 0.5

0.5 * 0.5 * 0.5 * 0.5 = 0.0625
1 - 0.0625 = .9375 (93.75%)

Here is the formula for the GAs with 200 entries:

Chance of winning is 1/200 = 0.005, so the chance of losing is 1 - 0.005 = 0.995

0.995 * 0.995 * 0.995 * 0.995 = 0.980149500625
1 - 0.980149500625 = 0.019850499375 (1.985%)
So the chance of winning at least one of the GAs is just under 2%, like I said.

Do the math!

Bonus!!

Chance of winning at least one GA if you enter 200 GAs that each have 200 entries in them:

1-(199/200)^200 = 63.3%

I kind of figured it was site load since it took a while to load. I didn't choose a window before I read the comments. I tried it again and could hear the sound and recognized three of the four, so I clicked the unfamiliar one and it's a game on my wish list.

Melody maybe (id have to listen to it again) also I dont really like Tarja`s singing (apart from the color of her voice) and female operetic singing in metal in general. But I can stand it when Floor does it. I absolutely love this concert (and I havent listened to Nightwish before that point really) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7IkfgWwTzVc.

If you like Floor and quality metal in general, with a bit of cheese on the side, check out Ayreon/Star One. :) (Hietala was also a part of Ayreon if you like his singing)

Bottom right is a lovely game if I'm not mistaken. ;p I refused to actually choose it because I'm pretty darn sure what game it is since the soundtrack was so great when I was playing.

Top right is the one that I'm dieing to find out what it was. (I chose bottom left)
