I love to participate in online contest. I won a few times from entering online contest. For instance i participated in an online GAME contest for a local bank and i won the grand prize for that month (PSP 3000) and 3rd prize for the entire contest period (Garmin GPS 250W). Anyway, i haven't been winning any prize since then until recently.....
I won $50 directly into my paypal. I did put a link to my payment proof in my profile for this contest... They give out a total of $1500 in cash either to alertpay or paypal account. I am lucky to be 1 of the 28 winners in that competition. Really liking this programs as there as many surprises from time to time :p
Have you ever won any online contest before? What was the maximum amount you won?
Have a nice day!!

I would have love to join the same site, but unfortunately as far as I know the Philippines may be able to join but cannot get the prize or that the said site is only available for some countries. I love joining contests and have won several minor ones before.

I usually don't do contests that involve submitting my writing or artwork or the like because if you read the fine print, you are giving up ownership and control over your work if you win and if it happens to be a work that is very dear to your heart that just isn't a chance you want to take. If I ever find a contest that looks suitable in terms of what I want to achieve in my career that still allows me to retain control over my work, I might consider entering kind of like you play the lottery just to see what happens. That would only be if I had something I thought was worth submitting though.
As far as other contests go, such as the type you seem to be alluding to, I have never entered one of those. It sounds like you have done really well though - I wish I had that kind of luck with such things!
My parents always enter the annual HGTV sweepstakes where the grand prize is a multi-million dollar house in some "desirable" location in the country. You can enter on their website and you're allowed to enter once a day. My parents say if they ever won they'd sell the property, however, because it is never in an area they would want to live in.

The contest i won from the local bank isn't actually luck. It is carried out for a few months where each month they will have a set of online flash games to play. The person who accumulated the most points win the contest for that month. At the end of the contest period, they will take the accumulated points from all the months we participated and choose the top 3 as winners of the grand prize. You can play as many times as you like for each month and they will take the top score you achieve. I did spend many crazy hours playing their game then :D
As for the other contest, i really think it is luck. Anyway, it is fun too :D
Since they are contributing their weekly income to charities, i will support them :p

I have never win in any online contest before. I also have not participated in such contest. I only tried joining some survey sites contest, or raffle promo. I only experienced winning in clixsense lol. I have won five times with their clix grid game. I am quite lucky when it comes to clixsense. But other than that, no.

Participating in online contest has been my favourite thing to do. I participate in many such competitions. Most of these are on facebook. Most of the competitions are some and other kinda of lucky draw. I never won any prize yet. But still I don't stop participating as you don't have to invest much of your time and if you won it It's a really good amount you will get in short period of time.
