Octodad coupon and 75% off Skulls of the Shogun, tempting.

 

[FiveElementNinja]

Bad Rats should be on sale.

It is on sale, 90% off. You can get it for 49 cents.

 

[Stallion Free]

If ace combat hits sub 10$ I'll probably pick it up since they actually bothered with the update.

 

[AScotAbroad]

So I bought 11 Bravo Crates for $0.90~ea about a month ago and now they are worth 2.0~ and rising

All technically free from phoenix case money too

I just recently got into CS:GO (loving it) - should I be holding onto any Phoenix crates I get? I know the price dropped after the game went on sale, so I've been selling them immediately...

 

[MRORANGE]

And the USSR one was never released in color. In fact, I only found out it existed when I went to download the books that my dad's collection is missing. It doesn't even appear in the list of comics that's featured on every book.

I'd love to get a physical copy of the ones I don't have, though sadly I haven't seen them in any library. Maybe I should try to track down some used copies on the internet...

London, Covent Garden:

 

[RionaaM]

not to mention that hilarious banned ussr book where tintin finds out that in russian factories workers are actually burning books instead of manufacturing crap

but hey racist or not captain haddock was a true man


i'm pretty sure the edition i have is in color

it's somewhere at my dad's place but i'm pretty sure it is

Really? I thought I've read that in Wikipedia, though I may be wrong (I hope I am!).

And yeah, Haddock is awesome. He always makes me laugh, a real gentleman. I should rewatch the cartoon and movies, can't remember anything about them.

London, Covent Garden:

Forget about Psychonauts 2, this is my new most wanted thing.

i may be just remembering the cover

even if we had a lot of the tintin books that one was always hidden away somewhere for some reason so maybe i'm remembering it wrong

and now we know how much my "pretty sure" is worth lol

Enjoy!

Based jshackles

Thank you

 

[NaM]

Modbot is not working for me or I did something wrong, 50/50 I would say.

 

[jshackles]

Looks like Amazon added Metacritic ratings to their video game page listings. Interesting that they have both the "Metascore" and "User score"

Spoiler

like Enhanced Steam

Enhanced Amazon?

 

[bobnowhere]

Ride to Hell Retribution is $1.99 on Steam...if you dare.

http://store.steampowered.com/app/209340/

DLC is only 40 cents.

That explains it.

Open up activity feed, everything was Ride to Hell:Retribution.

 

[Stumpokapow]

Modbot is not working for me or I did something wrong, 50/50 I would say.

Checked ModBot's PMs (last cleared about 80 minutes ago) and I don't see any from you. When did you send the PM and what were the contents?

 

[crazyrabbits]

That explains it.

Open up activity feed, everything was Ride to Hell:Retribution.

It's tempting, but I must resist. I won't let my $7 of trading card credit go to waste.

 

[MUnited83]

So, how do I go about to create a giveaway for 7 games in gift form, them all being the same one? I know I can send one to my email and copy past the gift link, but steam does not seem to allow sending the same game(not the same gift) to the same email.

 

[jshackles]

Disciples III: Resurrection -- MB-28307C4200F3014D - Taken by crazyrabbits
Tropico 3 Gold -- MB-94A0EEC3388DD904 - Taken by crazyrabbits

crazyrabbits is on a roll! I guess Modbot's general wonkyness with GAF going down is to blame. Enjoy!

 

[Backlogger]

Awesome, new thread already! Nice work

 

[PandaPedinte]

Looks like the bug that was deleting my cookies on Chrome is solved

 

[crazyrabbits]

crazyrabbits is on a roll! I guess Modbot's general wonkyness with GAF going down is to blame. Enjoy!

I find that, to achieve true equality, I must give as much as I take. I didn't even notice Modbot was acting strange.

 

[Boss Doggie]

Well that was really fast. Didn't expect a new thread.
Also HB is really lame today.

 

[X05]

X05, thank you so much for supreme commander. I've been a long time TA fan and supcom retail owner, just not via steam. The convenience of a steam version will no doubt have me hooked all over again!

You should direct your thanks to Arthea, who did that massive awesome giveaway

Anyone else get some more coupons? 75% off Skulls of Shogun and 25% off Octodad for me.

Just got two coupons:
75% off Skulls of the Shogun
75% off Flotilla

Anyone want them? Skulls of the Shogun is really fun. $3.74 is a great price.

I got only one, I feel scammed

So are you implying Tintin is racist and that black guys in his comics are depicted as being utterly stupid?

I think you are crazy!

Spoiler

I love Tintin, it just wouldn't be the same if Congo guys were smart

The least we talk about Congo and USSR the better.
I do love Tintin though!

 

[Stumpokapow]

There was 15 minutes between the claims, so the only rule he's breaking is two wins from one giveaway. Did both have the same giveaway ID (IE were they generated from the same giveaway)?

No rules broken, no wonkiness.

ModBot should have edited out stuff that was claimed, not sure what happened there. The ampersand in your username might be tricking it out. I'll check.

Edit: I see what happened. Not your fault at all. ModBot had already been pointed to this thread before the draw happened and couldn't find the post.

I sell them Wednesday or early morning Thursday that is when drops start to dry up and you can make a bit more money on them.

It is, 90% off.

Ah fair enough, do I resubmit the rest for a new giveaway? or can we repost the old giveaway codes, I will see if i can see the old thread.

 

[X05]

Not cheap enough

If you repost the rest in here, they'll be edited out properly in here Again totally not your fault, just a quirk of the system.

It just seemed weird because I registered the giveaway with 5 games, 3 got claimed pretty quickly, and a few minutes later I got another PM confirming the same 5 games, but got error messages from the three that had already been claimed.

Weird.

 

[MUnited83]

Holy shit, dat steam trading integration on Battleblock.

 

[Nabs]

I... can't explain that one. It obviously either received your PM twice or received it once and processed it twice for some reason?

I can try. I have no idea what I'm doing. Send me an invite or whatever on Steam. I can pretty much save my game of Ys at any point in time.
