Reminds me of the current nerfnow arc with antimage and his brown boots
Whoops. I am ashamed of myself
Not really surprising, even when Stump posted it during that first summer sale there were guys with a great deal of games already.
I'm sure there are people with more games won on Modbot than in my library.
Are you in the beta? You should post screenshots and impressions when you have a chance.
Stump said they have their shit together when he vouched for it.
If you don't try you wont know if you will success. Make a family member do a funding page, I see many of those campaigns are not made by themselves but by their friend and family.

That is kind of... yeah, not great. I know they are only mostly spare bundle keys, but still.
Hm. How many games have I given away, then? I must have fucked up my memory count. I was thinking 200. Is it closer to 150?
I hate my situation right now so fucking much. I would like nothing more than to be able to give away way more frequently than I do.
I AM NOT AND THIS ANGERS ME GREATLY
My family has no interest whatsoever in me doing something like this. In fact, they're very upset with me for seeking disability, even though, like... I'm disabled. I've spent years trying to pretend I'm not, and honestly, I'm so fucking close to the breaking point right now, I realize I should have tried this years ago.

listen to the mad man
Whether or not you need to change your password is highly variable by site, even among those sites affected by Heartbleed. Basically, during the period of time where the site in question is vulnerable, hackers could have read random chunks of memory out of the server. Maybe that memory would have contained usernames and passwords; on the other hand, maybe the way the server handles authentication transmission would be such that the memory would be nonsense. Quite a lot of servers never transmit authentication data in plaintext, even inside of SSL/TLS, so compromising SSL doesn't give the hacker anything.
Your best bet is to sit tight for the next week or so, change your password if you get an email from a service explicitly telling you to, and then if not consider changing your passwords then.
Lastpass, along with KeePass and 1Password, are all great password managers. Any password manager is better than no password manager. Use strong, long, random passwords for every site and only memorize your master password, which should be as strong as possible.
Note: This advice is assuming you already use different passwords for every site. If you reuse passwords, well, stop doing that.
Just under the cutoff for the top 10 (147 is your total giveaway number), but remember that the giveaway number only counts claimed giveaways, not outstanding giveaways, so if someone gave away 200 desura copies of My 1st Gam or whatever and no one claimed them, they'd show up as giving away nothing.
I don't believe there's any way to get a numerical stat, but if you check the Modbot tutorial for a my loot request, that should show you a complete inventory of everything you've won and given away* and you can do the counts yourself.
* Games that were rotting, unclaimed for a long period of time and given away through a bulk Modbot giveaway are counted as being given away by Modbot, not by the original giver, so those might be missing.
lim(t→∞
〖JaseC∙Giveaways (t)〗=JaseC∙GamecountI think you send modbot a message with the subject: my loot
More reason for people to claim those games that are still outstanding.
Wondering if I should just give away the rest of what I have. I think it's only like 23 games.
Well that sucks. It can't exactly be hard to implement
I'm guessing the rights belonged to Psygnosis who published the original, they were bought out by Sony and became Studio Liverpool. And thus it became a Sony game.

Our dear ModBot was tremendously generous to me following MRORANGE's birthday extravaganza giveaway, and I somehow won twice... I hope he won't mind me passing one of those on.
All thanks and credit to Monsieur d'Orange.

Oh rock of ages, do not crumble, love is breathing still. Oh lady moon shine down, a little people magic if you will.
There should be a limit on how many giveaways you can do. Like only 10 giveaways per lifetime
Got my closed beta key! Now to see if they'll let me install it.

Playfire unbanned me and awarded all my missing credit. Here's hoping I never have to contact support again.
Well if anyone outside of SEA can play I predict riots in da streetz
no not really
Are there even VPNs for people to play in SEA?
Hmm i seem to be getting 1 MBps on my wifi
I imagine JaseC has the best give/take ratio and that 108 taken/3 given member is the worst.
Edit: oh wait, there's going to be people who have taken loads and never given anything away too.
Double Edit: Realised I had these unclaimed as part of a previous giveaway - have at them

I am like 90% certain I am the OG giant giveaway guy, with like... 45 games. People quickly beat the crap out of that, giving away ridiculous numbers I couldn't hope to match. I was saving up for 100-200, but decided to go with 100. I'm intending to do another 100-200 when I can. I like doing it. Makes me feel good.
That's why I ALWAYS limit my giveaways to givers only. I want to reward people who kick ass.
I still haven't claimed anything. Claiming a game to play would just be foolish and all the licensed stuff I've seen pop up has been too recent to pinch for the sake of my collection.
yeah, plus I meant a list like the ones Stump posted
here's another list, unrelated though, of sites where you have to change your password because of heartbleed. It's not directly related to steam but we did talk about it a lot and it's a PC issue so...

That is the problem. The option was in The Walking Dead Season 1 but is missing in The Wolf Among Us. The only option there is is to disable the highlighting of objects (which I like) but I still get the messages that say "Balabla remembers this".
Telltale, not cool!
anything at all? you don't enter even if you don't have a game, even for +1 gamecount?
*mindblown*
disappointed to see I'm not in top 10, not that I thought I would be, as some people are incredibly generous here, still disappointed *sighs*

Does anyone else get the Coming Soon page on GMG when clicking Hot Deals? It's been doing this to me for the past few days.
Apparently, that PSO2 beta is region locked to SE Asia markets.

May I just add that I love the fact that all of those Facebook profile pictures are of anime chicks?

Wow That is an amazing amount of games given. Is there a total amount of games given number?
One for the lurkers.

Thanks Newblade!
Looks like I broke the cardinal sin of Modbot and entered for a game that I'd already won, it was anonymous so I wasn't able to contact who gave it away originally, here's a reposted raffle for it. Sorry everyone!

I'm sure it'll be pretty big. It's been on the top sellers list for a while now and now that everyone has proof that the port isn't half-assed like the first one was, I'm sure there were more pre-orders this week (for example; me)
The thing is that Steam itself does not let me send the same game( different copy) to my email more than once.Apparently, that PSO2 beta is region locked to SE Asia markets.

Seven separate giveaways or make six junk e-mail addresses at Gmail/Hotmail/Yahoo Mail/and so on.
It wouldn't feel right to pinch a game for my collection that somebody else would probably actually play. I'd make an exception for a licensed game that has an uncertain future but thus far I've noticed no such title.
Can we please not talk about this? I lost a bet and I have to display this stupid avatar until the end of April
Don't worry, I wasn't trying to be rude!

Yeah it's definitely grimy to enter for a game you won't play. I still feel bad for getting Thomas Was Alone and quitting it half way through. To be fair I wasn't expecting to hate it.
Haha. It was a joke. Anime-avatarGaf has a bit of a persecution complex. Anytime an argument about Japanese artstyles start we become collateral damage
There is a multiplayer component planned?
Tonsillitis, yay. No work till Tuesday.
This will probably kill me down the line, I've been getting bi-annual infections and doctors are saying they're too infrequent to remove the tonsils. Oh well...
Finally started Half-Life 2. Loving the fact that it's butter-smooth 60fps on max settings, pretty much every single new game I've played so far this year had 60fps with drops here and there. All the juddering was really starting to get on my nerves.
Hexcells continues being amazing, 7 puzzles to go in H+. No guessing required so far, although some puzzles required at least two-way deduction in some places. Really wish devs would whip up some quality weekly puzzle packs.

Oh right thanks, only get a PM back with everything I've won along with unclaimed giveaways though, rather than claimed giveaways too. Oh well.
Giveaway time.

Can't you just request for a removal? Unless you're in the US and that might literally bankrupt you.
