Even if it isn't today, it's still two weeks away. Not a big deal.

I'm suggesting you have two more weeks to stare at your games before you add more.
I find it fascinating to realize how often Gaffers avatar perfectly match their post.
So, I noticed the scorched keys on TF2 expire on July 11th. The 3 Sprockets developer said it would start July 12th, so I think the timing matches up for the sale to start on the 12th. They'll probably add another summer-related theme in TF2 for the summer sale after the pyromania madness ends. Or it could just mean the summer sale starts today and ends on the 11th...

Why are there so many,
posts about sales dates,
and what's in the registry?
Posted sales dates visions,
but are only illusions,
and that's what Gaf is trying to find.
So we've been told and some choose to believe it,
I know they're wrong wait & see.
Someday we'll find it,
a sales date connection,
The Gaffer's, the Lurkers and me.
Who said that the Summer sale,
would be Thursday or Monday,
when we could check the registry.
somebody thought of that
and some people didn't believe it,
and look what it's done so far.
What's so amazing that keeps us disbelieving
and what do we think we might see?
Someday we'll find it,
a sales date connection,
The Gaffer's, the Lurkers and me.
All of us under Gaben's spell.
We know that it's probably magic.
Have you been half asleep and have you heard about sales dates?
I've heard them all claiming the same.
Is this the reposts that claims their knowledge.
The reposts are always the same.
I've heard it too many times to ignore it.
It's something that happens every sale.

This is my first Steam sale so few I have no idea. It does sound like a clusterf*$# though.
As long as there are some good daily deals the next couple weeks I can wait it out.

Everybody got their wallets ready for today?

all my loli wolf companions are so moe
So you mean my posts are all manly in an alien dog sort of way?
TeamPositive... there will be the summer sale today.
If not, let it be some sort of SSF4AE weekend deal as EVO promo or something. Come on Capcom. I missed that Amazon deal and been itching now to get back to playing it, and I don't care to play it on my 360 anymore

I'm sure it has been brought up, but people new to Steam sales should take a good look at the Publisher packs that they put on sale. I would have saved more money, while getting more games if I would have bought a couple of the publisher packs early on. The more Steam sales you go through the less appealing they become because you'll end up already owning big chunks of the packs that you bought individually over time.

"manly" is pushing it a bit, don't you think?
Thanks. Loved that song when I was a kid. But I also wonder how many people here know where it's from.

It's also a great way to buy games you'll never end up playing. Packs are the main cause of the fact that my backlog is this big.

It would take some real self control to leave your first Steam sale without a giant back log. I guess I just look at things like the THQ pack and think of how much I spent to buy games from that pack individually compared to the price of the whole package.
I just sold my old AMD card to get a new NVIDIA card and the guy I'm selling it to is paying me today... I'll have 100$ cash in my pocket before the end of the day. Guys, I think it's a sign!
Edit: There's a more recent one, created using the pic of Gabe holding an iPad. It's buried in this thread somewhere.
Edit 2: Toddhunter was on the case.

True but the way I look at it, is that most packs contain maybe two or three games I'm actually interested in. Chances are those games will be dailies too. That's why I don't jump on the Publisher packs right away. But if you're really interested in the whole catalog then I'm not going to stop you. It's a great deal of course after all.

I was in a massage parlor with Gabe and John Travolta last night and I asked Gabe about the summer sale being today. Gabe smiled and was about to say something but the three of us were kicked out because of Travoltas antics and I never got to find out.
But I think he was about to say yes.

I see what you did there.

The daily deal will change over in just under four hours, but what am I going to do until then? If only there was some hobby that could fill up that time for me!
And who are you, the proud lord said,
that I must bow so low?
Only a sale in a different hat,
that's all the truth I know.
In a hat of gold or a hat of red,
Gaben still has knives,
And mine are long and sharp, my lord,
as long and sharp as yours.
And so he spoke, and so he spoke,
that lord gamer,
But now the rains weep o'er his wallet,
with no one there to hear.
Yes now the rains weep o'er his wallet,
and not a soul to hear.
Edit: I hate you with your gifs, I thought the sales were on

Thats about how much I have to spend as well, so I feel you.
I had about $100 the last two sales, so it kinda sucks.
