Odds of Winning

[cmulinix]

I know the odds of winning are based upon the number of entrys, but wonder what were some historic number of entries.  I thought I read somewhere. where 2 million AARP members participated in rewards.  Who knows how many non AARP members participate.  I'd like to see how many entries there were in that particular contest, when the winners are announced.  

It's been years since I had an instant win.  I've never won a non-instant prize even though a few times dutifully entered the maximum entries.  Now, I mainly use points to get some items without a contest.  At least then. I may be lucky enough to get a card before they are out of stock.

I also wish more games gave rewards.  Seems like you could get rewarded the first time you play a game during a day.

I asked them how many members are in AARP, would not tell me.  Even if half of them are paid still a lot of odds.

 Occasionally, I would win an instant win prize in the past. Instant win games were changed to this new format and I have not won in about 11 months.  My sister-in-law has not won an instant win prize in over 12 months.  I am wondering has anyone won since the format was changed.

The first year of my membership, I won 3-4 instant win games. Since then, I play the same amount, but win nothing. The odds obviously have been increased.

Of course the odds have changed. The number in new non-members has risen exponentially .

Acronym used to be American association of RETIRED people.  They told me they no longer use the acronym but keep the tag line.  We could come up with some better acronyms.  New members only have to be 18 now.  Hardly retired.
