Made 5 GA's Today, Same person won two of them..(GA inside)

I guess in GA with ~100 entries everything can happen.

Once i won 2 GA with ~1000 entries in 1 day. :D

One answer:

Everyone has equal amount of chance to win so....... there's also chance that someone will win both of them, all they need to do is hope that the universe is on their side.

These sites works in mysterious way... I did not won anything more than half a year and two weeks ago i won 4 games... almost one every second day. :D

here thought i would sneak in a private giveaway for bothering you guys with a pole:)~

once i won 2 group giveaways of games from the same franchise from the same person ending in the same minute (they had exactly the same end time)

In my last lot of GAs (nearly 50, all told) 3 people won 3 games each...and they weren't especially low-entry GAs either, all of them had a few hundred at least

once someone won 4 out of 7 or 8 giveaway from me, but with low entries....and i won once a giveaway with 4453 entries, from a math-point of view i was luckier :-)

I've never had it in the same day. But I was won 2 giveaways of the same person before. So thats still pretty lucky.

i am happy to win a copy of faeVerse (1000 copies givaway)...

it seems as tho it is a lot more common then i had thought,,surprising really.

I'm one of the most unlucky folks here, participated in more than 1500 GA's ( counted last week but will now be around 2000 GA's )
And i got the following:

• Overture ( i'm so happy with this game, really appreciated it im very thankfull )
• Payday christmas DLC ( most crappish luck wast )
• Fortix ( just crap )

Now you will say: You are the one that participated but i thought the PD DLC was nice, and that fortix was a nice game, but than i played it lolz

Chance to win each of these 5 GAs was:
0.0064
0.0085
0.01
0.01
0.0041

So chance of for someone to win 2 of them was:

(0.0064*0.0085)+(0.0064*0.01*2)+(0.0064*0.0041)+(0.0085*0.01*2)+(0.0085*0.0041)+(0.01*0.01)+(0.01*0.0041*2) ~= 0.0006 = 0.06%

It is small but considering hundreds of thousands of users and hundreds of GAs that happen here daily it's bound to happen quite often. For exampe user had greater chance to win 2 of your 5 GAs (0.06%) than winning a public GA with 2000 Entries (0.05%).

I once won 2 public giveaways from the same user at the same time. Both giveaways had more than 1000 entries.
It happens, but the odds are insane
