When did you win your first giveaway?

You are level 0 and at this level most of the giveaways get 1000+ entries so it's normal. :) Contribute, take part on discussions and be patient. ;)

I won the first GA that i enter :) long time ago...

4 years ago...

when the time was right :P

Hydrophobia: Prophecy (5P)

It took me over a thousand tries to get my fist win, hang in there and you will be fortunate.

I entered 18293 and won 40 so far. That means that I win every 458 giveaway.

The giveaway with highest number of entries that I won was "Kings quest" with about 800 entries.

I would say that time depends on games that you want to win. If you enter only for AAA games, you will wait much longer than if you enter the games with less then 300 entries.

Two years after I've joined.

6 days after I joined. I won my second 4 days after that. Which was yesterday.

It was about 1 month after i joined. Now I have 6,163 entries and 2 games I won xD

Won first time when i was born. Long time ago.

You really should have read more before making thread like this one.

Oh, I won my first GA few hours after joining the site.

I joined few days ago and ofc nothing. But what I'm trying to do is to get lvl 4 and dont bid on giveaways with more then 500 entries (unless they are multiple keys)

when was the first time you got your free game game paid for by someone else and generously given away by them

Fixed; Your original phrasing suggested a rather unfavorable outlook, intentional or not :X

Dwarfs!?. It was a giveaway with 100 000 keys and everyone got one key.

It's been a while since this topic was brought up. We used to get one of these posts every two to three days.

• The average length of time before a person wins his or her first game is 7 months.
• The average number of entries before a person wins his or her first game is 1300.
• The above statistics are approximate. Your experience with the random-number generator may vary.

took me a couple thousand entries before I won my first - and it was a private GA.
Haven't won a public one yet

When I first joined this site I was basically just joining all the giveaways because I just wanted to win something. I now have a few wins due to that, however most of them were actually not really worth it. Nowadays I only join giveaways I really want, its much better that way! I have about 3000 entries now and 5 won games. One of those is a free game now as well. I tried all others and only really liked one of them (most recent Shan Gui). Since I've come to believe it's stupid to join giveaways of games I wouldn't really play, I've decided to only join gibs I really really want.

P.s. I won my first one about 9 months ago.
And all giveaways I won are publics except for Shan Gui which was invite only and linked in the discussions

June 10, 2012 6:30pm, according to the giveaways won page.

After 1k entries.

As I said in many similar thread before: You have to sacrifice goats virgins are fine too, but they give a lesser win yield. In the beginning it will be 2 goats for each win, later you might get to an 1:1 ratio.

Took me about a month, and I was close to 1000 entries

But I was already giving games and was levelling up rather quickly. I was fortunate enough to be whitelisted by people and was invited to giveaways... Plus I did SG puzzles and joined ratio/level groups. All have small amounts of entries

If you notice... I have never won a giveaway over 100 entries. Well excluding a recent win! So, give a game away. Sell some cards on steam, buy a couple cent or penny (whatever your currency is) and give a game away to get ou started.

The deer was given away for free as well

Final Slam 2, around 1 year ago, at around 164 entries as far as I can remember, I think it was around 164.

never :(
