Anyone got pics or a place that shows what the new badges look like?

Just in case you were not aware, you can idle your games to get the badges.
You know, in case you've already finished your games and don't feel like replaying them.
Just leave it minimized while browsing the web or when you're off to work.
I know this might be obvious, but perhaps not to all.
On another note, what is this mystery card business, does anyone know what it is? I'm planning just to sell off all my cards and get a few sheckels for them...even if it's at $0.25 a pop...

There was some talk on the Steam forums about how no-one not man nor beast has seen a booster pack for the games added last week. I don't know how true that is.

I haven't gotten a single booster.
I have a feeling it'll be something like the coal crafting from the older winter sales.

I think it was never officially mentioned last week that it had cards, so instead of giving it its own announcement or editing the last one they included it in this week's update.
I dunno, I thought it strange too. They even edited it into the list after the thing was posted.

They didn't announce it back then, likely a mistake.

Didn't it get them last Friday out of nowhere? It wasn't during the usual update and was there even an announcement by Valve? Maybe that's the reason.
The release is friday next week. I don't think they'll want to piss everyone who preordered it off.

Mystery Card is at 1 now.
I totally forgot that game was coming out.
No reviews on it yet? Usually that's a bad sign.

I guess the mystery cards will be for something like the Summer-Sale Metagame.
Like coal or the thing 3 years ago, where you could buy some DLC and cosmetic-items for it.

Nice, glad I waited, time to pull the trigger. Does this site come in english or something?

I actually was looking for such a site earlier today, thanks!
Do the XP limit, to reach next level, rise at level 20?
Kinda feels like I have to craft one more badge for the next level now.
Also, for those interested (and for those not able to purchase it in their region), MK Komplete for $17.50 and some other deals.

Nah, you can use google translate though. I don't know a single word of spanish/portugese (see?), but I was able to register and checkout fine.

Nor have I and I've been a faithful card trader/seller/buyer/crafter.
Gabe has forsaken me.
I managed to go through the purchase, thanks for the heads up on the deal. Actually, portuguese is very similar to italian (which is my language) and the whole process was much simpler than I thought at first.
It does. From the FAQ:
Also, steamexchange is a nice site and a fair bot that doesn't apply 90% to the value of your sales.
Neat.
I don't know why I bought this though. I already have like 3 copies of the GOG version.

You'd think so considering Origin has it already. Surely isn't too complicated for it to be done.
dirtywhirlwind
Member
Yeah, it was just released in my region.
No reviews is what kind of makes me wanna pick it up though. Knowing nothing about a game beforehand is pretty rare these days, and I like to give it the benefit of the doubt. Kind of pricey though. And I'm in the middle of too many games as it is, so might have to let this one go.
Gaben doesn't give you what you want, only what you need.

So, Alan Wake is actually staying at a steady .20-.30 rate.
Some popular games do that. Some FTL ones are still at .40
Unless it's affected by levels, which are earned by crafting badges.
(Sort of how you couldn't get foil cards during the beta unless you were level 10 or more)
Maybe you just craft coupons the lower your level, and possibly at higher levels games which would encourage people to craft more badges.
So basically, buy low while you can, cause if that happens, the market has a chance of getting a boost.
GSB is taking forever for me too. 1.5 hours for two drops so far.
Most of the games that have been in bundles are at the bottom price wise, due to there being a lot of copies around. FTL has not, so I would expect them to stay pretty steady.

Wasn't supposed to come out until Friday. I'll post something about it when GMG releases their keys.

War of the Roses cards are pretty high still, going for about 60 cents including valve tax. Managed to get my Alan Wake badge finished and I still have a card left to go. I'll probably end up a few cents above where I was before I started getting the Alan Wake cards.
Damn I love this market.
