I usually have one or two games that I "really" try to win in a given week, if I can't win them in a weeks time I usually trade them out for different games. (Unless they're games that I'm really 100% interested in winning. My current obsession is Don't Starve)

You love Don't Starve as well!
I've played the 16 minute Chrome app demo well over 100 times now. oO I can't get enough! ><

I've got a similar problem. I'm not going to enter for a game I won't play, whether it be from general disinterest or because my current PC doesn't meet the specs (the latter being true for a few places I could sink a lot of points.)
The flood of (sometimes expensive) game bundles has only made points accumulate faster. Go to bed, wake up the next day and I'm nearly capped again. But since I bought most of the bundles that are contributing to the point flood, the majority of new giveaways are stuff I now already own.

i think a lot of people do just want to increase their game count. i only enter for games i'm pretty sure i'd like to play, and it seems that i'm not the only one because there are popular games that get a lot more entries than other games.

I am picky, although I sometimes enter in a giveaway I hadn't planned to enter because I feel interested in the game.
Anyways, I don't want to win games for the sake of it. I wan't to enjoy them.

I don't enter if I don't have the intention of playing it ever. I also don't enter private/group ones if there's someone that says that he really really wanted the game for a while, and I don't want it as much as that person.

I think many people here at the forum and especially people that contributed look more to enter only giveaway for games they want. But most people (cg posted once a number) here haven't contributed and I think these are more likely to enter for any games just to win (many don't even know that the games are from real people). I have many games and won some here and now I try to only enter for games that are on my wishlist and I really want.

I do enter based on where I have the best odds, but I ignore what I know I won't play.
I have a broad taste, though, so I don't have to ignore much. Only issue is that I don't have much leftover time to purely pour into gaming, so I'm quite far behind on playing through all the games I've acquired over the past year, as well as a lot of other stuff I still wish to sort out, but never really feel like actually sorting out.

I burn through my points as much as possible, though I aim to spend them on games that I'd actually play. No point in entering, say, Dear Esthear giveaways when I'll never even look at it.

True. I will only enter competitions I want to win, until I have more points than games that I want, in which case ill enter games I like the idea of

i enter on giveaways of games i would like to play

Kind of picky, I suppose.
I only enter for games I actually find interesting, and for games with a GotY edition or something, I won't enter for just the base game unless it's a private giveaway or otherwise has a low number of entries.

When I joined the site, I'd enter on a lot of giveaways, even for some games I wasn't really interested. These days, though, I rarely enter for games that I'm not so interested in, especially because I've a huge backlog alreadyy. Nowadays I only enter in dev giveaways, and for games I'm really interested in (like "I MUST PLAY GAME" interested).

It seems like a lot of people enter giveaways just so that they can win something instead of actually caring about the quality of the game. Is that true or completely wrong?
