Casual question for everyone.

Whatโ€™s the biggest GA youโ€™ve won? In my case, it was a GA with 4.5k entries and only one copy of the game to win. I was really lucky because it was Stardew Valley.

I'm curious to know whatโ€™s the biggest GA youโ€™ve won.

Thank you, the game looks right up my alley, and somehow I haven't heard of it.

Oh man. I have no luck with big giveaways, and don't think I've won anything in a giveaway bigger that 600. That's why I engaged with the community and joined puzzles and groups. Otherwise I have to hunt for region restricted or very short time giveaways. Still hoping to win one of those Children of Morta giveaways.

Mad Max with 4,954 entries, level 0 giveaway too. The game dragged on for a bit at the end, but overall I enjoyed it too.

That would be Assassin's Creed Odyssey back when it was a very new game. The number of entries was near perfect - 6660.

GRIME, with 4222 entries.

I've been very lucky overall. 4 other wins with 1000+ entries.

That's a difficult question.

When it comes to numbers, it was Unto the End with 2124 entries.

What felt a lot bigger though was Haven with 1742 entries, it was a game from the top of my wishist. As well as Tormentum - Dark Sorrow with surprisingly the very exact number of entries: 1742.
Or winning the "big" titles like Gof of War or Fallout 4 right at releas back in the day. Both from whitelist giveaways with significantly lower entries, but I very well remember the magnificent feeling when winning, I consider them big wins.
Same goes for The Witcher 3, 805 entries from a forum giveaway, I was delighted. Or Oceanhorn, which had been my top wishlist item at the time. Only 30 entries, but I remember dancing through my livingroom for all of the above mentioned wins.

In my 10 years on this site I won 11 giveaways above 1000 entries, two of them with 5 copies gifted.

Haven't ran the numbers, but the most monumental GA I won here was RDR2. Less than two months since I got the GA, and it's already my most played Steam game of all time.

From an entries perspective, it's Elder Scrolls: Redguard. 1/1741
I also have been gifted Slay the Spire and Stardew Valley keys by members of this community, and both rank as #2 and #3 as my most played Steam games. They don't show up in my win statistics, but I'm absolutely grateful for them!

In terms of entries it was loverowind with 1500 odd entries, a pretty short walking sim. But in terms of overall enjoyment and stuff I'd say Rain World (haven't played Metro: exodus yet which is another big win for me)

Heaven's Vault at 2,523 entries. Not only was that my biggest as far as entries, it was also both my first win AND the very first giveaway I entered! It also happened to be pretty high on my wishlist at the time and ended being one of my favorite adventure games to date.

As far as biggest title goes, that would have to be Hogwart's Legacy while it was still a somewhat recent release.

The GA I won with the highest number of entries was Book of Demons with 9.023 entries, but there were 50 copies being given away. I really enjoyed that one! I'm hoping at some point I can get my hands on Hellcard!

As for the single copy GA with the highest number of entries, that would be Okami HD with 3.257 entries! I enjoyed what I played of it, but I think I got distracted with something else and never came back to it... but I do intend to beat it at some point!

My biggest win was IMMOST (1300+ enters). It was the second key I won. But much more memorable was the fact that immediately after winning I was added to the blacklist. Moreover, as far as I remember, this was also the first time when I was added to the blacklist on the site

Probably Yakuza 4 Remastered
I won with a 0.1% win chance! Winning a GA with such odds feels different.

Unfortunately I wont get to playing it any thing soon, as I havent played a single Yakuza game and I currently dont own a controller :(

I suppose it's Bastion with 1988 entries. 8 is a lucky number in China so maybe it helped me ^^

My Friend Pedro with 948 entries. That's pretty high for me since I don't enter many GAs that have over 1k entries.

Biggest by amount of excitement when won?

I realized about a year ago i've never one a giveaway with much more than 1,200 entries.

So now i only enter for the games on my wishlist, and then pick a few interesting ones on their last day, and under 1,000 entries.

So maybe i'd have won a giveaway with more entries, but since i dont enter them, i've lowered the chance of it ever happening... except for a couple dozen WL games every month.

Interesting to see other people's luck, and wonder how many others bother to look at the amount of entries, and calculate the odds of winning in their head? ESGST is helpful for that, but the % is soo small, i often do the math in my head before squinting at it's calculation...

Thx for the interesting thread predictablenat o/
