I entered a group giveaway with 83 Entries and 1.2% chance to win

And ladies and gentlemen it happened

DRUM ROLL

I didn't win anything

Moral of the story:

[1] I shouldn't get my hopes up.. every time.

[2] Statistics hates me the same way i hate it.

[3] You know what i also hate? Origin

I hope you don't hate Origin or easter eggs ;)

Well, 1% is a pretty low chance at the end of the day :)

Good odds vs. a normal SG giveaway but still. Don't worry, one day you will win and it will be glorious!

[1] Don't put too much hope into giveaways.
[2] Bit too fast to be angry about statistics.
[3] Me too, but Battlefield is alright.

Statistics is lying to me, says i should've won two times while i won none :P

And battlefield is awesome.

Nope, too lazy to do the math but 2.21 estimated wins means about 25% or so chance of not winning a single time. Still fully within the expected. When you get to 10 then you start to get into the realm of 'should have won' already and even then the size of this site means there is going to be plenty of people there.

Statistics say a probable outcome is that you would win two games by now, but you are here playing a game of chance and nothing is certain. I only get my hopes up when I'm in GA's with 5 people or less. Anything other than that is a bonus.

All taken in case anyone wants to try it.

@Tut - Most people have their first win around 1500 entries (assuming most of them public). Since you are entering group giveaways you have better chances. Keep at it and you will get it.

Ah, 1500 entries is it? I never was able to crack the way statistics work!

I wasn't referring to my wins, but to how you determine 1500 entries to be where most first wins happen...

I don't hate it, but EA should publish games on steam too and not force us to use origin.
