If only one question had to be answered, it would be this one.

Just finished Episode 2 of The Walking Dead Season 2 my good people.

It felt a bit short to me but I found it more intense than the second episode of The Wolf Among Us. It's hard to say something without spoilers, there was "someone" from the 400 Days DLC and someone you might expect (or not) from Season 1. Some parts of the writing in this episode felt a bit.. off. It just didn't made much sense but either way it was a really good episode. I would say it was shorter but that's the point: when you are so focused on the story you don't want your game to end so until episode 3 is out I'll wait. :)

I need to play it now, otherwise I cannot read your comment. I am afraid of spoilers.

A very very very very very obvious fake person / troll already registered here using Gabe's email address. Of course the account was never activated because the email address was never confirmed, and the email address was never confirmed because you can't sign up for an account using someone else's email address and expect them to confirm it. LOL. This was a couple months ago, BTW.

Or, maybe, just maybe, Gabe already has an account, and he knows having multiple accounts gets you a ban.

YOU CAN SAFELY READ THIS! ;)

I would never put anything major without a fair warning so it's okay. Unless you are very, very sensitive, in that case just go and enjoy Episode 2. I didn't mentioned names, choices or anything similar. It's not very long and it might left you wishing for more so have fun.

Apparently it's a problem with the beta client. You'll have to opt out of it to fix it.

What's this again? I have like 120 games on Steam, just logged in and I have over 200 in my library now, apparently ready to install. What is the deal here? If I try and install these will it work? Will I be charged?

Dammit, my savefile for Episode 1 is on another computer. I guess I will have to wait for tomorrow evening before I can play Episode 2. Why no Steam Cloud?

Same happened to me fellow GAFfer. Had to start with random decisions since the first Episode from season 2. What a shame... :/

Weeeeell a couple of things...

A little notice for Hoostrax (and for top-down racers fans)
There's another top down racer I found pretty interesting and fun (aside the driving license you have to obtain to enter career mode): Real World Racing. It's one of the very few games on Steam developed by Italian people too (along with Assetto Corsa, MirrorMoon EP aaand... that's it?).
You can buy two steam keys for 5.99$ + bonus material here: https://www.indiegala.com/special
Steam page here: http://store.steampowered.com/app/253470/
There's a demo on the Steam page, if you like it you should consider the full game :)

A new and interesting Greenlight project approached!
It's Retro Game Crunch, a compilation of "8bit like" games that really captured my attention. You can buy it at humble store (I did it, obviously) here: https://www.humblebundle.com/store/p/retrogamecrunch_storefront and they promise a Steam key if greenlit.
This is the homepage: http://retrogamecrunch.com/
And this is the Greenlight page, don't forget to upvote! ^__^ http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=227008079

Sadly, they're just a bunch of F2P games, not some unexpected jackpot in the Steam game lottery. :s

listen to the mad man
Steam support is so stupid:

My ticket was a series of questions about moving between countries and updating my Steam account so that everything works in the new country. It included the sentence: "This summer I plan to move. I don't have a date for the move yet, but I am contacting all of my account providers to find out in advance whether or not there's anything in particular that I have to do. Do not make any changes to my account yet."

The response is requesting me to upload an ID card from the new country to "switch my default currency over".
