I think the usual sweeping curve goes something like this:
Oh boy, LOOK at all these!!! I MUST enter ALL of them and then I WILL win.
For some, it only takes a week for them to get frustrated and start asking "Why can't
I win??? I see all these others doing it, what am I doing wrong???" while others plod along and don't reach that point for months.
Since 6 months is the norm, those posting they won after a few days/weeks are actually outliers, who are also more likely to post, but that doesn't change how others react.
The other part of the curve is in how many & how often you enter.
When you start out, ANY win sounds fun, and so we tend to go hog wild - yes, I did it too. :crazytongue:
In time, we learn to prioritize, and that while entering lots of sweeps may
increase your chances, it
doesn't guarantee them.
