When they add new games with cards this is all I can think about now:
"I'm going to have to go through and add 4-7 new profile backgrounds to the Enhanced Steam database."

Man, what a nightmare.

 

[HP_Wuvcraft]

Like Hotline Miami and Spec Ops, Bulletstorm is actually an introspective metaphor about the link between player enjoyment and game violence.

Seriously

Bulletstorm is amazing and I lol that it was one of the games that Congress chose to be a poster buy for violence in gaming.

 

[Stumpokapow]

I sent a PM twice because I thought the bot hated me and I got an error message back, but still with encrypt key. Can I still copy and paste the errored message?

Yeah you can copy and paste it, I suspect what happened is that it added the first time properly and then the second time added and got mad at you for re-adding a key from before. Sorry about that.

 

[super-famicom]

That's why during these kinds of sales you wait to see if a game has a special deal (dailies, flash sales) before buying. If it never has a special sale, buy it on the last day as the Summer sale is ending.

Is there a way to check if a game has had a special sale before?

 

[jshackles]

Man, what a nightmare.

LOL I know, right? Gotta copy and paste a lot so that everyone gets free profiles.

See? That's how it feels like to play a fun game and not that Alice stuff.

j/k, but only a little

Heyyyyyyyyyy... I like Bulletstorm as much as the next guy, but don't you disparage my girl.

She doesn't like to be disparaged.

Is there a way to check if a game has had a special sale before?

Enhanced Steam is pretty cool.

I would personally recommend installing Enhanced Steam.

[The_Monk]

Salsa you should get a full time jog for Gif-Summer-Sale reactions.

EDIT: Thank you kind fellow GAFfer Ezra2680!

And thank you kind people buying my cards. They took less than 5 seconds to sell, guess I should sell them more expensive, hmmm.

 

[Wario64]

Well I'll try it again with a new game

How does this work ?

You add BLOCK username to block certain people. I used it to keep a couple of people who I've notice get a ton of games from grabbing these

 

[super-famicom]

I have that installed, but I'm at work right now and on an iPhone 4S. Will use Enhanced Steam when I get home.

[Caerith]

To be honest, the thread is moving a little too fast lately. I used to read every single post, even when by some reason I was like 6 or 7 pages behind. But these last few weeks it's been like that pretty much every day, so I tend to only skim the last 2 or 3.

This is true, but we have so many people asking questions that have been answered so many times that I wonder what goes through people's heads when posting.

• "Everyone's talking about ModBot and using it to make giveaways, so it has probably never been explained before and I bet nobody's thought to ask about it."
• "I bet nobody on NeoGAF has even heard of reddit, so I'll post this large, highly visible screencap that even a cursory glance at the last 5 pages would show has been posted 10 times already."
• "The thread title says not to ask, but I'm a special snowflake so nobody will mind me asking."
• "I doubt the question of 'is it okay to act like a dick' has come up, so it's probably okay for me to act like a dick."

 

[scorpscarx]

How does this work ?

You add a name, but it's a double edged sword, if you try to claim something and you don't get a key, yet you qualify for the other portions, you know that person blacklisted you.

Thanks ezra!

 

[derExperte]

That time of the month?

Beat me to it. Well okay, it reminded me more of the problem I had with my dinner today. :/

 

[HP_Wuvcraft]

Some Dredmore foils are still at $40+.

 

[Ezra2680]

Well I'll try it again with a new game

Thanks!

Edit: It says the code was already claimed on steam?

 

[bronson]

And here we go...

Hey thanks for the key, but uh, Steam says it's invalid?

 

[TheNamelessOne]

So many cool giveaways. I'll probably wait with my giveaways until people are disappointed by the sale.

 

[Caerith]

That sounds like TMI.

gross

 

[Copons]

Thanks to Wario for his kindness!

 

[r3n4ud]

Hmm, very odd since it's a gift in my inventory.

 

[KarmaCow]

Some Dredmore foils are still at $40+.

No one is actually buying anything so it's not like it matters what people are putting it up for.

 

[Chance Hale]

Jesus

Dunder

won't disappoint us :3

 

[MikeDown]

Modbot is everywhere today

The Recently Sold section says otherwise.

Modbot is everywhere, everyday

 

[bronson]

I think I'm confused. You pulled a key from an item in your Steam inventory?

 

[toddhunter]

Just to confirm an earlier post, I'm idling dredmor and McPixel and getting drops from both games.

Wow Wario, very generous to give such a new game out!

 

[scorpscarx]

LOL I know, right? Gotta copy and paste a lot so that everyone gets free profiles.

I just added you due to how awesome you and your avatar are, hope that's cool, look for the same avatar....

 

[Cth]

Sorry about that folks, it was a problem dealing with PMs that had key giveaways but had a non-standard format. The code is fixed and the backlog is being cleared. I suspect some of you spammed the shit out of him when you didn't get immediate replies. In return, you will get the shit spammed out of you. Enjoy.

Thanks as always for all the hard work put into this!

 

[RibbedHero]

Thanks for The Swapper Wario! Will play it as soon as I get home from work! Cheers.
