There doesn't happen to be a site that shows at current market value how much it costs to complete each badge, does there?

So... to celebrate my very first Foil (only took 50+ drops of Dota2 plus all the others games to get it, hehe), here is a very good game. Now to decide to sell it now or wait...

It's supposed to be a steam gift url. So any problems please let know. Enjoy!

There's no way preorders will be discounted during the summer sale, right? I want to preorder The Raven and Shadowrun Returns, but I really don't wanna regret it.

Why can't you wait till the Seal is over, in any case? It's not like they are going to run out of keys.

So many cool giveaways. I'd post, but, like most lurkers, I don't have anything to say.

So, uh...Summer Sale is tomorrow, huh? Is that confirmed?

I tried for the XCOM one, I already have a copy of the others. Intrusion 2 is surprisingly impressive from a tech standpoint BTW.

So I made a dumb mistake earlier, thinking that I was missing Penny Arcade 3, not 4. I PM'd Stump, and got the key put back into the system, but I wanted to apologize for the error to you folks, and Jshackles. It all worked out, as I was meaning to do a Modbot giveaway anyway, but as a word of caution for these things and the upcoming sale: Familiarize yourself with the games you own!

You'll be able to ditch your lurker status easily by repeatedly posting how excited/disappointed you are with Gabe's daily offerings when the sale starts.

I don't know a site that tracks it, but for awhile TF2 has been the cheapest I noticed (9 cards @ 0.20 each). Unless something drastic happens, Dungeon of Dredmor seems that it will match that or be lower (6 cards @ $0.30 currently and could drop more). Approx 1.80 for a badge. If you sold Mystery Cards, emoticons and backgrounds, you could probably knock that down to about $0.75 per badge.

Everything else is over $2 per badge.

What? Pretty sure it's better to just buy everything that goes on sale and deal with the consequences and regret later.

Yeah, I think Dungeons of Dredmor is what I'mma go with (especially since I can earn half of it). I just wanted to have a deck ready before the Steam sale in case there's an achievement for the metagame for crafting a badge during the Steam sale.

Wait.. You play games on Steam? I thought you just collected games. Like Pokemon, you gotta get em all.

Do bears shit?

But yes. DoD is an extremely old school roguelike with dozens of skills to mish-mash together. They all are ridiculous (such as Mathemagics and Vegan), but they all are useful.

Hmm. I will pick it up if it's on sale.

Only the first rule is true. The others are fake, and I urge all of you to disregard them.

I always chuckle when I see stuff like this, but it's actually pretty useful.
