Idk about you but I'm just sick and tired of all the probability at work since I have the worst luck.
I've entered giveaways with less than 50 entries and still fail to win.
So, I made this little train for those like me!
The GAs aren't the best games but it'll give you the satisfaction of winning I guess

The requirements are that you need to send at least 2 games and won less than 5.
Hop on!

CV != number of wins.

Did I do something wrong with sgtools? Because this is the first time I'm using it

CV is contributor value, which is calculated based on the value of the game, and whether the game has been bundled or given away for free or not. So with your current rules, a user can have more than 5 wins and can still enter your GA if they only won free games before, and a user who won only one game with CV higher than 5 (e.g. a game in monthly Humble - they are counted as full value) cannot enter your GA.

Oh okay, thanks! I just changed the filters, hope I did it right this time

It's still wrong. You need to build custom rule if you want to base it on the number of wins

This is the rule you need: num_won <= 5 and num_sent >= 2

You may want to keep the CV rules to keep out people who only send free games.

Well, I'm terrible at this
If I used this (real_won_region_free <= 5), will it be okay?

Oh thanks! I'll update the filters
And what value should I put as min CV? Sorry for asking so many questions omg

It depends. You can put a small number like 0.1 (given away at least one low value bundled game) or 1 (given away at least 1 medium value bundled game).

I tried 0.1, but it's too low apparently
I'll use 1 I guess
And thanks a lot for everything!

Just noticed that the level requirement for your GA (level 2 needs 25 CV) already exceeds the CV requirement, so that rule is redundant.

if there are 50 entries, than you would have 2% chance to win =) i wouldn't think of THIS as a high winning chance =)

Well.Not winning let's say giveaway with 10 entries,repeatedly, sucks balls because odds seem so good. But 10% chance to win means 90% not to and 90% not to win IS A LOT. That's probability for you really.

It's still 1 in 10, so if you enter enough it all evens out at the end.

I can't participate, but still, it's very nice of you for those who failed to win more than 5x so far.

I don't have much on my wishlist so I don't think I'll qualify for most of the games, but thanks anyway!

I've lost two giveaways that only had one other entry than mine. Unfortunately, it happens!

On the flip side, I won 2 public giveaways from the same person right in a row, and each one had over 500 entries!:)
