The system chooses the winner randomly from all the people who are in the giveaway. The comments have nothing to do with your odds, you comment if you like to do that. Though, if you like to join some good groups to increase your odds, you have to comment in the giveaways you enter and visit the forum so people could see you're good a guy and so on. :D

I reached +500 entries before my fist win. And I won because only 4 people joined a private giveaway. Fuck my luck

And for those who are wondering the give-away marked as not received, the winner didn't want it, so he said I should keep it.
That sounds kind of unfair for the rest who entered that giveaway doesn't it? You probably should have contacted support about it or do a re-roll.

The statistical odds of winning the public giveaways pose a great challenge that is not for the impatient - a, say, 0.1% chance of having your name plucked out of 1000 is obviously slim, but that said, someone has to win. Expect nothing, and be pleasantly surprised with anything else, I guess.
(I wear my 0/700-odd record like a badge of honour!)

You should have entered the Faerie Solitaire giveaway.

I only recently tried to say something on each contest I enter.
You're better off being more active in this forum.

Be more active in forums get invite to groups and yur odds increase more, but its never much because its still all about chance. I know its heart breaking never winning anything, but half the fun is finding games you want to enter in and trying your luck.

The FAQ said there's no way to increase your chances of winning. Everybody has the same odds.

Think he meant that you're better off entering group giveaways than public giveaways.
The stats tell me that you have 0.2% chance of winning a public giveaway, versus 5% for private and 8.7% for group.
However you'll easily find that number to change each day. Last week we were at 8% for private, and 5% for group.

I am not sure how people get the points to join so many giveaways in so little time.
I have been here for about 10 months now and on a mere 400 entered giveaways.
Yet I see people with 300-400 entered giveaways which they managed in 3 months or so.

Consistently being on the site and entering contests during times when people are constantly submitting giveaways helps, too. I don't know what giveaways have been throwing all the points at me the past couple of days, I either own them or have hidden them with my site plugin, but I've been at the cap for the past few days. If I were less discriminating, I could be entering as all the points came in.

I was lucky and won on my 12th entry but after that I had to wait quite a lot. and btw the comments that most people have are not from the giveaways they enter, it's about being active on the forum where you can also sometimes find hidden giveaways so you might wanna try that ;)

At least I'm winning the "most entries and no wins" prize atm. Woohooo.

You've got like, 100 games that have zero playtime on your account. Why are you wanting to win more? You're not even going to play them. I would kill for half the games on your list, and I would actually play them!

Not a plea for free games, just wondering if this is normal with the odds of the site?
I am in the official group, and one more so know and then I can enter a group raffle with better odds but still no luck.
Ps: I know my comments are a bit low compared to my entries, but when I first came here I didn't post comments, I only recently tried to say something on each contest I enter.
