Sent you a PM. I'll do it, but I want to enter your e-mail address so it gets spammed to your inbox.

FAERIE SOLITAIRE! Daily Deal for $1.70.

Get on it, kids, it's a fun little card game.

It's extremely polished, has great art and soothing music.

He never PMed me back. Guess I could see if a dummy e-mail account works. I don't have 50 of these things lying around like some people.

You know who to blame in that thread.

They're going to act like they're doing a good thing by gifting you one if they do, but if they didn't take 50 in the first place you would have got one. Utter cunts.

I ended up getting two by accident (because I thought I didn't get one the first time, but then they emailed me it a few days later) and I gave my extra one away. Not trying to get another one.

Glad you got it (From whoever got if for you). It's saying ID In Use when I tried for you. Guess it's over.

I PMed people on my Steam list the link and got one code for a guy who wasn't online who I know likes and plays the Dirt series (and has it on his wish list).

The way it should be done.

I grabbed one for Stop It because he missed one the last two times and that's it. How people defend taking as many as possible is disgusting.

Was trying to get one for my friend so we could play online together. I got a code but it says it is invalid and the website says it sent my email address one already. Booooo

I bought myself Faerie Solitaire as a consolation prize.

It's got a ten or so hour "adventure mode," although the core gameplay doesn't change much (it is still a card game, after all). There's a set of challenge stages and a little pet collecting mini-game as well.

a friend got that, he just waited a bit and tried it again. seemed to be fine.

I am confused: Is the code they gave you at first the steam one or do you have to enter that code on the website and get an email with the steam code?

Oh, wow. My Steam DL speed is currently at 1.2 MB/s. I've never had it that fast at such a constant rate.

They upgraded their content distribution a few weeks ago and are slowly migrating content to the new system. All HD videos inside the client are on the new system, but not all the full games yet. They made a note that they expect users to see increased speeds.

Yes because one guy taking 50 keys to give them on gaf means 10 people went without a key. Lets ignore the other tons of people who are doing the exact same thing as chesskid but instead to turn a profit. derp.

That's right, I remember it happening right before the sale. I'm just more surprised by my connection speed in general. Ha ha.

I'm not ignoring them? They're just not posting on GAF. If they were, I'd call them out too.

50 keys is just overkill. plenty of people missed out again because of people like that. It's a shame, really.

I was a little worried the first time I crashed into a tree in Dirt 3. The screen went all messed up with weird pink artifacts on the screen.

Turns out that's a feature (ala Kane and Lynch 2 camera effects). Maybe it looks better for hood cam or in cockpit view, but I was in 3rd person view at the time when it happened. Dirt's usually good about graphics options so I hope there's a way to turn it off.

I mean like everyone else who isn't on GAF. GAF didn't take all the keys. If chesskid didn't take 50 keys or so, the other people who were doing the same thing as him elsewhere would have, and 3/10 of those who missed out would have gotten a key. It's how that works.

As long as he gives them to the community like he said multiple times now, I see nothing too wrong.

He's not a scumbag like the people who are trying to profit, but I fail to find someone taking 50 keys acceptable, even if he is giving them back to GAF. It's good for the 50 people who get them, but maybe 50 other GAFers tried and failed because of him etc etc.

There needs to be a limit. He went too far.

Technically if you're not in one of those countries (Brazil, India) and you get a copy you are a liar and are cheating the citizens of those countries out of THEIR free copies.

Are you from either of those places? If you are you have every right to be upset.
If you're not, then you LIED to AMD just by attempting to get a free copy. lol

I have a Shogun 2 key that came with my video card. PM me if you're interested in it.

Edit: I'm not giving it away, although I wish I could. I will sell it for say.. $20?
