You shouldn't enter for big AAA titles giveaways if you expect to win. I enter mostly private and puzzle giveaways, and if you look at my wins, you can clearly see that only one or two of them are public giveaways.
One more thing... I don't think you understood how contribution affects your luck... Contributing WILL NOT increase you chances of winning.
The only thing it'll do is let you enter CV requirement giveaways, so let's say that a giveaway requires $15.00 CV, you might have a slightly higher chance of winning, because you can enter the giveaway, but users who didn't contribute $15.00 will not be able to enter it. Thus, the giveaway will have less entries.

I don't know if the whining about whining is any better.

The math is quite simple. If the average number of entries for giveaways you entered is around 1000, then your likelihood of winning one of those giveaways = (1-(999/1000)^1000)*100 = 63%, not 100% like some people think. And if you are entering mainly public giveaways (which you pretty much have to be doing to enter 1000 giveaways in any reasonable amount of time), unless you are only entering for less well known/older titles, the number of average number of entries tends to be much higher.
For anyone curious about the math, (999/1000)^1000 = .3677 100 = ~37% is the likelihood that you would lose every single one of those 1000 entry giveaways, so the 63% is for winning at least one. Included in that is the chance of winning every single one (110^-2998 percent, so you'd have a better chance of having being struck by lightning 100 times, then having a meteor fall on you, all within a 5 minute span).
In other words, enter private/group giveaways if you actually want to win games.

Yeah people keep winging on how they have entered thousands of giveaways and not won any so after a few months I have come to the conclusion you shouldn't expect to win look at the amounts of people entering the comps. Just to test if you contribute you stand a higher chance you don't, I made one worth £29 and then the price came down and then was worth $19 and didn't win.
GET OVER IT LOOK AT THE AMOUNT OF PEOPLE ENTERING COMPS AAA TITLES GET THOUSANDS OF ENTRANTS YOU ARE 1 THE BALANCE OF PROBABILITY DOES NOT WORK LIKE THAT.
IF YOU GET EASILY FRUSTRATED OR JUST WANT SOME FREE GAMES EASILY GO ELSE WHERE
