I'm glad I'm not the only one who hasn't won anything.

Is the game truly a game of a chance with a winning card of some prize denomination hidden every day, or is it "rigged" to either continue denying you a prize or offer a prize based on your value to SPG or how many points they want to entice you with?

,

yes.

Read the T&C's. They explain how the winners are chosen.

Maybe it is a way to get us to practice so we remember our SPG number?

Because they don't allow "rigged" games of chance there is my guess

Not gonna happen. The SPG numbers are too damn long. I used to know my Hilton number when I travelled every week, but now the only one I have memorized is my UA number. It also has the benefit of many repeated numbers, so it's easy to remember.

Oddly, I had to enter my number the first two times, but since then I've been able to just reload the page and it lets me pick a card without re-entering it.
