nope, just checked and didn't see my name at first. It may have been because I didn't expect it, for some reason I usually don't win contests. (maybe it's my attitude?)

Eh, people might have a bias towards letting those who have been here longer win, as it shows that they have managed to survive the first few months which are pretty rough for most.

I actually meant contests and/or raffles in general, not just on steemit, but that is a fair point.
