Wierd...

Depends on how many giveaways you've entered. I dont win games I'm looking for, but I win DLC, and games that push me out of my normal choices.

You've only entered a tiny number of giveaways. The odds in this case are spot on - you wouldn't have a win yet.

Giveaways Entered: 192

There's your 'problem' :) It's just unlikely to win a level 0 giveaway.

Weird indeed!
With 192 entries in giveaways with thousands of participants you should definitely have won something. If I were you, I'd write my local congressman a complaint :)

Do the math yourself. You expected wins should be in the 0.05-0.1 range.

I blame Probability theory!

User stats will probably show your luck is about expected.

Now this is an example of weird. But don't worry, even he won something eventually.

It's weird, no really.

Reminder - if you enter 1000 giveaways with 1000 entries - its 1/1000 every time :3.

If we judge based on my number, you did not entered half of the amount of GAs what I need for 1 winning :D
I mean I have entered 61502 GAs in 5 years so I entered yearly approximately 12300 GAs and won "only" 155 games... which means "every" 397th entering is a winning :D You entered 192 in a year... thats nothing :D

Thank you friends for the clarification.

Zero given, zero received

When I first joined it took a year and a half before I won anything, plus I was at "you've won 2 fewer games than expected" without having won anything.

It's all random chance. Just like there's nothing actually preventing someone from getting tails tens times in a row. It's just really unlikely.

192 entries in 1 year !! there is nothing odd with it . ppl enter maybe 50 k entries in a year o more for couple of games ..

you should enter giveaways more often

It's all about probability and luck. If most of the games you enter have around 1000 entries, you probably won't win until you enter around 1000 giveaways. If you want to increase your chances of winning, you can enter giveaways with less entries by creating giveaways to level up and join level restricted giveaways, joining groups for group restricted giveaways, or participating in the community discussions and finding hidden invite only giveaways.

You may want to read the FAQ. There is a lot of good information there.

your low levl makes it very unlikely to win anything. just random luck.

People have said it already but meh, I'm going to say stuff too.

1. It's because you only entered under 200 giveaways in one year. Pretty much every day you start off with 400 points. What I do every day is I sink all my points into games I want to win. Every damn day. Sometimes that'll be 20 games I've entered in a day, sometimes It'll be closer to 50 depending on what games are being given away. So compared to the under 200 games you've entered in the 1 year, I'll enter roughly 18k giveaways (providing that I remember to enter some some days)

2. It also depends on the giveaways you're entering. If youre super super desperate to win a game without giving a damn what it is then enter as many as you can on the main giveaway page, regardless of what it is. They're only level 0 but theres more of a chance of winning those than the games you have on your wishlist.

3. You are level 0, you've not given any games away yet and therefore are not level 1, being higher levels will grant you access to entering more giveaways where less people have access to.

4. Check the discussions for puzzles, jigsaws and other things. People like to put these as gateways to their giveaways so that bots aren't entering their giveaways.

5. Join a giveaway group, they will put out group-only giveaways where you will have more chance of winning. Most thought will have the requirement that you have to do some giveaways too, or play the games you've won.

6. Get added to people's whitelist. Some people so whitelist recruitment. Some people will whitelist you if you start making giveaways. And if people whitelist you and they make a "whitelist only" giveaway then you will have a better chance of winning.
