I don't need the names or anything, just the numbers.

I also think that the system is a little weird. Some people have over 100 wins.

Although it's true that computers cannot be completely random, to the best of our understanding, there is such a thing as true randomness at the level of quantum mechanics. I have it on good authority that SteamGifts uses a hardware random number generator based on Brownian motion, which is freshly brewed every morning.

Even if you had a list of all GAs you entered and which ones you won, there's a LOT more variables that can possibly matter (Depending on how the system works)
A few examples of what could matter in determining the outcome:
These are just common examples, you could even go as far as using the game name/app ID in the random seed or include some randomization to the list of people who entered. All depends on how important a truly random number really is (how much server power will you dedicate to generating a random winner and how much time do you want to spend programming/bugtesting the generator)

It involves 3 monkeys,a pink elephant and Gabe Newell covered in strawberry jam.

There is no such thing as chance. Only unknown variables. Computers cannot be completely random. I would like to find the list of results and which numbers won, so I can try to find the pattern that the Boolean is following, and help Steamgifts make it as random as possible.
