I should note that ModBot doesn't technically put them in reverse order, it just stores the games in a python dict object, which technically has no guaranteed order. I have actually no idea how python comes up with the order that it does.

Could you explain how it works please? Is it distributed randomly to a user? and is it luck based?
I've sent three pm's haven't got anything.

 

[Vastag]

Can anyone be so kind to tell me whats going on with the colors/teams?

Click here and find if you are on the glorious green team.

 

[derExperte]

Oh sweet, you can win free games through crafting this year?! I really don't care what the game is, I'm just happy Valve brought that back.

No, you can win some if your team wins. See the FAQ.

 

[Yakkue]

XCOM: Enemy Unknown + The Bureau: XCOM Declassified do it or not?....

PD: Team Rosa Rules

Do it, XCOM is great!

 

[Anustart]

Two different ones because it looked weird with the pink shadow AND background.

Much appreciated! Will change when I get home!

 

[Sendou]

If anyone wants to make my avatar represent team pink I would be most grateful.

 

[TsuXna]

XCOM: Enemy Unknown + The Bureau: XCOM Declassified do it or not?....

PD: Team Rosa Rules

Both great games, just got The Buraeu but Enemy unknown is just super fun.

Only if your team win, I think.

[Aitor]

[crazyrabbits]

Damn, I'm already going crazy and the first block isn't even over yet. Picked up the Far Cry pack, Pac-Man DX, X-Com Bureau DLC and Daikatana.

Spoiler

Plz understand

 

[KINGofCRA5H]

LET'S DO THIS, BLUE.

 

[Symphonic]

Can I get a Team Red Avatar please <3

 

[Tremis]

Anyone else finding that the market is unusable currently?

 

[HP_Wuvcraft]

Your avatars are the real reason why the different teams exist.

... you gave me a great idea for an avatar.

 

[Vibranium]

Only if your team win, I think.

Yeah, just saw. Still a great system, I'm glad they did this.

 

[Kyougar]

Thanks Symphonic for your work.

He means that the games are stored on a dictionary structure, which perse is not ordered, so its "imposible" to know how the games will be ordered (actually if I recall correctly python uses a hash table to implement the dicts, so it depends on the name of the game).

 

[Yakkue]

Anyone else finding that the market is unusable currently?

Works for me.

 

[phoenix296]

Didn't realize The Bureau was part of the X-COM sale. What does gaf think? Underrated gem or stay away?

 

[Anustart]

ooh, I like this one too!

 

[VisceralBowl]

LET'S DO THIS, BLUE.

 

[SmithnCo]

Anyone else finding that the market is unusable currently?

It's very slow.

 

[Mobius and pet octopus]

XCOM: Enemy Unknown + The Bureau: XCOM Declassified do it or not?....i know is not only for me...is for my team

PD: Team Rosa Rules

I think both games are great. That is a really good deal imo.

 

[Wunder]

Is there an easy way to check the daily score without having to click through like 4 things?

 

[RionaaM]

I should pinkify my avatar. Maybe this could be a good time to evolve it to a pink shiny Delphox.

 

[astrogamer]

Wow, I went out to lunch and green is neck and neck for the lead. Sweet

 

[LiK]

Looks like I was placed on the Pink team.

 

[Facism]

i got blue, like my eyes.

 

[Fliesen]

yay, Blood dragon.

Go #team_blue_wait_isnt_that_more_like_teal!

 

[HoosTrax]

The price of betrayal, eh?

 

[Kadin]

How does everyone like the change to the Community Choice? Pick one of two groups of games instead of just picking one game. I like it.

 

[Chariot]

Looks like I was placed on the Pink team.

Don't be shy. You're just in it because Eren tried to hide there, right?

 

[PandaPedinte]

Oh sweet, you can win free games through crafting this year?! I really don't care what the game is, I'm just happy Valve brought that back.

30 people who most contributed for the winner team will win 3 games from their wishlist.

 

[DexterPepper]

That Blue team price.

Yeah that's what I was saying before but I think this user is asking a much more basic question, not about how ModBot orders the game names, but rather about how ModBot works on a basic level.

Could you explain how it works please? Is it distributed randomly to a user? and is it luck based?
I've sent three pm's haven't got anything.

Are you asking how ModBot draws winners? It's first come first serve for anything that's a plain giveaway, and it's randomly chosen once the timer expires for timed raffles. It helps to read the rules for the thing that you're entering, which will tell you whether it's a giveaway or a raffle.

I am seeing two PMs from you:
- One entering for MB-A6714EDE29086F99 - Taken by Melhisedek. 3 entrants total. - This is a raffle for Fez that doesn't end for another 45 minutes, so obviously the winner hasn't been chosen
- One entering for MB-6BC428774A1A55AF - This is a raffle for The Last Remnant that doesn't end for another 90 minutes, so obviously the winner hasn't been chosen

Prepare for victory.

 

[Jason Frost]

Wtf, I just reinstalled Steam and I need to authorize it my computer, but I get no email...

 

[VisceralBowl]

i got blue, like my eyes.

 

[Rhaknar]

OH SWEET JAYSUS

PRAISE DA LORD SWEET BABY JESUS

 

[Anustart]

AKA winning team. We goin for the 10-peat. Or however many days the sale is.

 

[BlackJace]

If anyone wants to make my avatar represent team pink I would be most grateful.

It's fantastic.

 

[aku:jiki]

yay, Blood dragon.

Go #team_blue_wait_isnt_that_more_like_teal!

Their designer really is colorblind. The "pink" they use everywhere but the flag is so clearly a shade of purple.

 

[StarlordDial]

The price of betrayal, eh?

*sees red is $5 ....see's HoosTrax's with red background*..


i....know you want too

 

[Kyougar]

The price of betrayal, eh?

reds are cheap

 

[dampflokfreund]

I bought Devil May Cry, I really like it

 

[Mr. Luchador]

Steam Client keeps freezing/not responding. Wonder if that's the beta.

 

[Chariot]

30 people who most contributed for the winner team will win 3 games from their wishlist.

Not the 30 that contributed the most, 30 random people of the team, aye?

 

[Mozendo]

Bam

EDIT: Motherfu-

Oh I like this one better, I'll use it!
Double I love you, double thank you.
