November 2024 might be the worst month in terms of luck on SG for me, ending it at -2.1 with 7 days going over 10% (one of them even over 20%) and multiple 5-8% range days. Of course I know that this percentage is only cumulative but it still leaves a bad taste, I'd much rather not win anything while having it at <1%

So maybe I need to offer a sacrifice to the gods of luck or whatever, here is a giveaway for Frostpunk LVL2+

Anyway, what has your worst luck been here?

It's all good. Only groups can fix this unless you're extremely lucky. :)

Also, imagine not winning from this giveaway.

Happy cakeday.

Wow never heard of a giveaway with so many copies - and yeah losing a greater than 50% chance at one of 15k copies would be depressing.

I had a -3.0 December of last year.
Dont think i recall seeing it dip lower than that.

Overall i find the stats a curiosity, and find most of my fun on this site is found between dreaming about winning the giveaways i enter, discovering games i've never heard of, and interacting with people on the forum. Winning giveaways is a nice bonus for this friendly community.

"Overall, you've been unlucky, and won 21 fewer gifts than estimated since you first joined"

Ive been here for 13 years- i have luckier then average months sometimes, but if im not mistaken that overall for me have ALWAYS been unlucky.
Im constantly going for -2.3, -2.7

That tracks with most things in my life actually. "Overall unlucky" doesnt surprise me lol. I try to see the upper side as theres always someone worse off then me. I nearly died 3 times in my life, one of those i had a hole punctured like 1inch or less from some vital artery or something- doctor said 1 inch to the side i woulve lasted few minutes.

So idk, maybe that consumed all my luck?

I'd say I've been statistically lucky mostly. -1.24 on May was my bottom point this year. But I try to only join good odd GAs.

My worst "unlucky" thoughts occurred after last year's community train where I didn't get a single win.
Bump, happy cakeday and happy December! :)

That year I were lucky and won 16 new games. I assume it was reward for being good girl which I recieved by accident.

Happy Cakeday.
hmm, lets see, what does it say on the Statistic page.......WHAT? I've won 18 fewer games then expected?
Well......it seems i was unlucky this year but........it doesn't feel that way. ^^
Because, as i counted the won games this year i won also 18 Games this year. Funny that it should have been 36 wins for me. ^^
But well, as said, it doesn't feel like i was unlucky, and as i won real bangers this year (God of War Ragnarök, Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2, Hades 2, UNCHARTED: Legacy of Thieves Collection, Like a Dragon: Ishin!, just to name a few) and had a LOT of fun playing those games it doesn't feel like i was unlucky.

Also: Groups are great! I only win games in groups. ^^

The "won xx more/less gifts than estimated" stat is actually for the whole time you have been here, not just the last year like the graph.

Things happen. In the middle of this year, I had a total score of -4, it reached -6, but this fall I was lucky and now I have even reached +. And this is despite the fact that my level has been reduced. My peak negative score was -2.24 for the month when I had the maximum level.

I wouldn't pay too much attention to those percentages, I've sometimes had 3 or 4 months in the red while I continued to win games during that period, and I've also had days with 80% chances if winning and no actual wins. They're just a guess by the system.

Also, happy cakeday! 🎂

I haven't won anything for over a year.

Though to be fair, I stopped entering for much outside of a single group I was still in for the last several years, and that group shut down earlier this year. I've entered a total of seven giveaways this year, five in the group before it shut down and two others. I just have way too much backlog to lower the chances for others. :P
