What are the chances of winning a giveaway?

You dont win a giveaway, the giveaway wins you.

You dont win a giveaway, the giveaway wins you.

You just entered 38 giveaways xD

Number of copies/Number of entires

This should be really simple. It's typically something like 1/1500. Statistically speaking, you're only "unlucky" once you get to about 4500 entries without winning - that's a 95 percent chance of winning at least something by then.

Hmm, 1 - result from http://www.steamgifts.com/forum/awfIu/what-are-the-chances-of-losing-a-giveaway :P

Also probability isn't measured in percents, per milles etc. It's normally real value between 0 and 1 (0 and 1 included). Of course percents, per milles etc falls under this terms but their usage is incorrect by semantic meaning - just saying :P

42

Most people win their first game by the time they've entered 3000 giveaways. You've got a ways to go, still.

Oh, and my first win was Skyrim Legendary. (Thanks, Delta! D)

(1/entrys)*100=chances in procents.

i join nothing with more than 300 entrei and even cancel in my list when something has more than 300
i won now 3 games on like 280 entries

works

depends on your religion. Atheists get nothing and satanists can even lose some games from steam library. You should study the Gaben's Book of Life for more information and proper sacrifice instructions.

Anyone who wins consistently have given over their souls to the Dark Gods and are therefore HERETICS that must be BLAM'D!

Oh my god. I shouldn't have posted anything before passing out. My bad. Thanks for the answers though. Appreciate it. Even the trolls. LOL

Dunno...i only entered 61 giveaways and won 39 so i guess pretty big chances...

Probably 0% chance for you

50% is your chance to win (and 50% to loose)

It's very odd. Someone says it's related to Created Giveaway, but I created 17 giveaways and only 6 won (last 6 months ago), and always cheap games.

no one has ever made it 5000 entries without a win, so thats that. xD

Nudes will make your probabilities rise

Id say about 6

go learn math at your local school, maybe then you can help yourself

Divide a black hole to 0 and that number it's your chance for wining an ga

Firstly, insert a healthy amount of explosives into your rectum. Dynamite is best: The Choice of Champions™... Now place an old (circa 1970) calculator close to the fuse, and attempt to divide a number of your choice by zero.

May as well be 0 I havnt won in months and that's with entering every day.

Easy math 100/ by the number or people entered the giveaway. So if there is 5000 people on one giveaway, that means 100/5000= 0,02% is your chance to win ;) (yes you need to be a lucky fuck) XD
