These are just my thoughts, observations and nothing else....

Not sure if I'm right neither want to blame someone, but I really think that there is some formula of winning Giveaways and there is no real random.

Let's start with that I never have 300 P. I mean I always enter Giveaways.

What I get is that I get very stable win rate of 3 games every 2 weeks. 30 days ago I won 3 games in a row. Then no wins for 14 days. Then again win 3 games in a row.... then again 14 days of nothing. Then again I won 2 games in a row in the same day.... than again 14 days of silence.

I was on LVL 0, then I become LVL 1 but this did not change anything. Same stable Win rate of 3 games every 14 days.

This does not sounds like real. Anyone can explain the reason or maybe someone have the same?

Do you belive in random?

Yes, surely, it's absolute random here.
No... it should be, but I have doubts...

Luck.

I don't really follow your math here. You can usually improve your odds by entering private or group giveaways. If you only enter public giveaways with ~1000 entries you obviously have a much lower chance of winning. Levels do not affect your chance of winning an individual giveaway, just which giveaways you can enter. But having a higher level helps because there are usually fewer entries in higher level giveaways. In any case, if your intent with this site is to win as much as possible without giving back, you're eventually going to run into trouble.

Or just use cheat codes.

You got me totally wrong.
I don't want to improve any chances. Just trying to share my observations.

There is always one ot two guys who start arguing about unfair winning, not giving back and other harmfull stuff. Why???? Come on...

it's really based on luck
you won 8 games in 1 month
on level 0 gibs so I guess you should consider yourself very lucky
the 14 days rate is purely luck based.

Hard to say, but sometimes it look really wierd....it is easy to blame luck....i just had a giveaway train with 44 keys and 1 guy won 3 of them (entry 55-185).
My first 2 days of using this site, i won 4 games. Sometimes i have big pause, when i dont win anything and sometimes i win multiple games at one day.

That happens just the same like others win once daily or none at all. If such "odd" situations would never occur, then there'd be an issue.

Same for me here... so really, may be it is normal. I'm a rather new guy here, so may be it's just too fast for me making any "formulas" :)

I don't win that often, but my fav was when I won twice in a row. Same game. Same person who made the GA.. lol
Meanwhile I've entered just about every GA I can see for Tomb Raider II and III since Christmas, and nada.. Thats just bad luck.

There's your problem. I am often above 150 P because I mostly only enter wishlisted games.

Either you are very lucky, or you enter every giveaway possible.

8 public GAs won within the first month... is like insanely lucky. You'll be very sad soon when you do not win stuff for a longer time.

PS: When you see a pattern it doesn't mean the randomness is faulty, it means that you are a human and see patterns where there are absolutely none.

Gents, just to clarify... I'm absolutely happy with everything. I don't want to win more, no. These are just my thoughts... and like FeiLing said: "When you see a pattern it doesn't mean the randomness is faulty, it means that you are a human and see patterns where there are absolutely none."

I vote this for the best answer, if we were Yahoo, ar who has it? ))))))

I've only won games that had over a hundred copies, so even though I'm level 3 my luck has been not so well. Although my luck has never been known to win me anything. So I'd believe it to be random + luck.

There is no formula, you are the best example of that. I have been on this site more or less the same time as you and i have won 4 giveaways, all private, the biggest one with about 100 entries. You have several wins with over 500 hundred entries, luck is on your side.

3 games every 2 weeks sounds fine to me .
You won 8 games in a month .
Some ppl win lelss in a year ,

It really depends if you want to get games you actually want , or just hoard everything that seems easy win .

You also have won 8 games in 1 month.. agin look at me... 3 years and 18 games. Your account is more than lucky. If its all random i open window and jump down right now. If text is confused, sorry for that, iam on phone

This isn't the first thread that indicates that there is something wrong with the seeding. Looks like "burst" wins followed by absolutely zero chance on anything for days is common.
