Last year, I joined contests and I also won but most of the time, there's only 1 chance out of 10 contests and most contests on Facebook have the criteria - most likes or most comments so considering the fact that some friends are annoyed when you send them requests to like your entry. Facebook contests requires time and many friends. There are also some raffle contests on Facebook or Twitter but I haven't won any. How about you? Do you spend time joining contests?

I have won a couple of times. The only ones I regularly enter are the drawings, as they are easy to enter and I don't have to ask my friends to help me win. I'm glad there are a lot of contests to enter.

Wow! That's great. For me, I like the drawings more than "like contests" because I also don't have to nag my friends to help me win :)

Thank you, sir. For now, I am too busy to join contests. I use Facebook and Twitter mainly for communication.

No i never join raffles, quiz things or things that are like that.I only go on there once in a while and that is to get my messages from friends.I do feel that there are a lot of games that are good on there where you get to win gems for your games, but I do not play those either.

Before, I joined contests because I was so bored. But since it killed a lot of my times, I stopped. :)

I personally don't do contests, but I saw something on the news where a women won a load of contests because she was the only contestant, so I might start entering.

Wow! Haha!! She had been very happy. My sister-in-law joined a contest before, they were 5 participants, she has the highest votes but the admins didn't updated the fanpage so she thought, they won't give the prize but when she opened her inbox after 2 months, it says she won but the prize was already forfeited. :D

I really don't join contests that are on facebook or twitter. I am not a person who gets into contests. There are a few I enter like I entered to win a cabin on a cruise next year with my favorite radio morning show. Other than that I don't really spend time joining contests. I never think I will win.

Hello,
I do have a facebook account and sometimes, I joined some contest.
The reason I am joining contest is to make new friends -- Even though the winner will receive an administrator power to the page where the contest is held. For me, some people are desperate to win a contest because they want that power. So, they are spamming comments and chats their friends to like the photo or their entry and will gain too many likes that made them the winner. When they win, that's all. They don't do anything else. (Well, that applies to some people. I am not generalizing it.)
