It sucks that my account is stuck in the "200 sales" limbo. I had an american address once on my Steam (because they allowed you to do that to buy things from other regions) and now they'll never release my account to sell more cards.

I could transfer the cards to my alt account and sell them there, but it's too much work and i'm way too lazy to do it.

Oh well....

Thanks to DexterPepper for Hoard!

Btw, I'm confused about how the gift-based ModBot giveaway works. Who actually gifted it to me? Is it one of Stump's mule accounts on Steam? Or does the original giveaway creator somehow automatically give it to me?

Thanks for the giveaway. I tried for Killing Floor since it was the only thing I missed during the sale but I won a game on the 18th :/

I set up an alt account (running through sandboxie just because it's so damn easy) just for that purpose. Sell on alt account, buy keys (or games I want) and send them back to my main to sell on the market. I'll lose a few cents, but no biggie.

Thanks for Greed Corp! I was interested in that game a while back, but I'd forgotten about it!

I already did... A MONTH AGO.

I even mailed support, and they said they'll have to wait whoever does the manual checks and that there's no way to knowing when that'll be done.

Yup, that's the alternative. Prices are so low that it doesn't seem worth it, imo.

Can anyone here explain me that 200 ban thing in steam community market? Looks like I'm pretty close to this limit.

That doesn't help in his and my situation. Valve says they'll need more proof and will send you an email if you ever used a US address but aren't living there. Which they never do, no one has ever received this mythical email.

The original giveaway creator gifts it to you him/herself.

Special Giveaway Challenge!

I currently have 2 games to gift:
  • Lunar Pack
  • Super Hexagon

Short version of the rules: win this challenge (PM Kifimbo), pick a game, get qualified for the grand prize, and decide what the next challenge will be!
Here's a longer version.

Here is the challenge:​
Be the first to answer these three questions correctly (PM me):
- What is the animal in my avatar ?
- What band (music) has that animal in their band name ?
- On which famous American flag this animal sometimes replaces a snake ?

Time until this challenge ends: as soon as someone gives me three good answers !

If you win, Accent will PM you the instructions to make the game go on :)

EDIT: chronomac won.

There's applications that force borderless windows on games that don't support it. I do it when playing Simcity and I want to broadcast it.

Was searching info for it, but heard it's qualified at "cheat programs" like Punkbuster on Battlefield 3.

Luckily, I rarely play online games on the PC, but I'll be careful using those.

Anyone know if the Special Edition upgrade for Indie Game the Movie is worth it? Loved the original documentary
Click to expand...

Heven't heard anything about it yet BUT it does have 100+mins of new documentary footage.
Showing McPixel, Spelunky and some more.
Biggest highlight will be the full Q&A with Phil Fish where he said Japan Games suck, finally get to see what all the fuss was about in full.

Yes, Battlefield servers would kick me out when I used it with Battlefield 3.

It's a game-by-game basis. There's an alternative method that works for Battlefield 3, but I just don't care...

Yeah, I'd suggest you try it. And disabling Vsync or playing in a window may help, from what I've heard, though I didn't do either and I still managed to beat the whole game.

Oh god, Phil is so excited about his foil card. If I somehow get one, I wonder if he'd be narcissistic enough to buy it off me...

ALSO, to clarify re. the giveaway challenge:
winning this challenge nets you Lunar Pack (which is actually 2 games, but still.)
KRZ/KY0/KR0/whatevs is the next prize, the grand prix. Just want to avoid any confusion...

Just played my first game of NSII, there is an insane amount of depth to this game but I picked it up pretty quickly.

I actually ended up MVP of the whole match lol
