Don't be too excited to win a game because the probability that you won't is pretty high :/ i entered shit loads of skyrim because i want it a lot xD i won two games until now and i have 371 entries ... I wanted badly one of the game i won and i finally got it after many entrance to get it ^^ the other one though, bad luck, i won it and don't like it after all :/ i didn't know the game, videos of it didn't look bad but actually it ain't cool :(
Don't loose hope, it'll come :D

There's a chance... Calculate your own winnings with 1/entries. So the more people enter a giveaway, the lower your chance to win is.
General advice is to enter giveaway with low entries (couple of 100s max) and to make a couple of giveaways so you can enter giveaways that have a minimum CV.

It takes a lot of attempts to win a game, but please try to remember that you're getting the game for free (and the entries are also free!)
Just set aside 5-10 minutes a day to check up on the give-aways and enter those you like, and eventually you will win something. It's a matter of patience. Don't forget to say thanks, especially to those who are being the most generous!

The PROBABILITY of successfully winning a giveway here is inversely proportional to the number of entries in said giveaway...
The formula here is (# of Copies) / (# of Entries). Assuming that most giveaways are for 1 copy, you can make the following assumptions & the figures listed below are just the known (& easy-to-figure) probabilities.
You can pretty much keep doing this forever, but the point is that each person that enters LOWERS the probability for any one person to win. It doesn't eliminate your chance of winning, it just makes it increasing improbable. The only way to increase your chance at winning are to...
That's about it here for your quick lesson in probability. Don't get depressed if you don't win, the system is set up against your favor & the only way you can guarantee an eventual win is if you keep entering giveaways.

+1.
As a teacher of mathematics myself, I admire your patience and effort. This is very nice work. :)

No there isn't! You will never win! Everything is pre-planned and the winner is decided! It isn't you!
Or just ignore what I said and read what other kind (especially those above and below me )people tell you about "PROBABILITY".
Think about it. There are 10,000 and 95 cookies. (Just an example.) What's your chance of getting one?

Tell you what. If you entered a giveaway with 95 participants, you had a 98.95% chance to not win it. How does that sound?

The Inception limit: The amount of times something must be repeated within itself before someone references "Inception".
Early experimental evidence suggest a limit of 2.

Everytime I see threads like this I wonder, does OP even read the comments? There is in like 90% of "these threads" no response of OP.

Well the people who make these threads typically haven't been here very long so I doubt they check them.

I won my first giveaway at around 2000 entries (and that wasn't even a public ga, it was a group giveaway, therefore I had 14,29% chance to win). Solve puzzles, enter private giveaways or multiple copy giveaways, that way you are increasing your chances. Still, you have to be patient. VERY patient.

I haven't even hit 2000 entires yet and I have 14 wins. Got to love holiday events.

IMPOSSIBRU My account and everyone else that has wins on this site is totally fake .
If you dont have any sense of humor - this was a joke :D
You can win, but don't expect to win every day. You need lots of luck and smart spending on your points. Don't just enter on every giveaway you see, enter only the giveaways for games you REALLY want to play. If you want to improve your chances, there is only one way. Giveaway games!

It's all luck, man. If you're concerned with winning, enter giveaways that relatively few people have entered. Of course, you might not be interested in this games, but you have a better chance of winning. I know some people that would prefer winning a game they will never play over losing trying to get a game they want. :/
Myself, I've been... lucky, I guess. 175 entries, 2 wins. Unfortunately one was Medal of Honor 2010 (I had hoped it would be better... I was wrong). The other was Fortix, but y'know.
