I have 12 wins. Estimated - 8 ._.
It's also weird that I can not win for a month or so and then win a couple of games in a short amount of time. Crazy.

It would be interesting to do the statistics on everybody's ratio. It probably has a sampling distribution resembling a normal curve where most people are right around 1 and then there are less and less people as it goes higher and lower. I wonder who is the outlier with the highest ratio and best luck and the one with the lowest ratio and worst luck

Currently 2.45 behind. I've seen worse, but it's been too long since my last win, I won 30 Flights of Loving when I had 12.33 estimated wins, so I should have won 3.12 games since then. Still, can't complain about the games I've won already, I really enjoyed playing most of them!

I just think that those who have higher win ratio and whom do not participate in group or private giveaways simply place entries to fewer points games, like 10 or 15 max. For example, not cause I'm some greedy fella, I tend to enter only for games that I'd play that are 20 or above points, cause that's kind of the limit I'd go and pay for a game since I can't really afford to do that on a regular basis.

Won 13. Estimated 17.76.
But that's nice. I won 5 in the last month or so. Before that I was much further behind.

I've been looking around at quite a few people's Gifts Won to Estimated Win's ratios (A sample size of around 25 forum users) and nearly all of them is right around 1, or their actual wins is right about where it should be or even a bit lower.
Looking at my ratio, I have 9 wins compared to my 5.29 estimated wins - that's nearly a ratio of two, or one more win and I would have doubled my estimated wins.
None of mine were group or private giveaways with a large chance to win, nor have i ever won a developer giveaway with like 10,000 copies or something. And of course, I haven't cheated or anything.
I was just seeing how many other people are just getting lucky and have a Gift's Won to Estimated Wins ratio of nearly 2 or more. Except if you have won like 3 games and your estimated wins is 1.5, that's hardly anything.
I always see people talking about how they don't win enough or how they are way past due for a win. There are even plenty of groups for these unlucky ones. But I guess I have never felt their pain because I am doing pretty well off haha, so...
Any super lucky people out there?
