Also, I demand to know who edited the title of this thread.

I support the edit because it makes people feel inexplicably uncomfortable. I just need to know.

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.

Enhanced Steam has been updated to version 7.4. This release includes the following changes:
  • Added a "View post history" button to user's profiles in the "More" dropdown box
  • Added price tier information to "Bundles that include this game" section
  • Added support for more currencies on badge pages
  • Added basic compatibility for extensions such as HTTPS Everywhere
  • Significantly reduced the number of data queries while viewing badge pages
  • Price history information for multiple items are now done through a single data request
  • Rewrote how translation files are loaded which will reduce the amount of info in memory
  • Fixed a bug that could cause the user's invite page not to process correctly
  • Fixed a bug where cards with quotation marks in their name wouldn't show lowest price info
  • Fixed a bug that could cause trade offer decline buttons not to show up under certain circumstances
  • Fixed a bug that would incorrectly calculate number of games with drops remaining in some languages
  • Fixed a bug that sometimes caused homepage carousel descriptions not to load correctly
  • Fixed header positioning when hiding the sidebar on the home page
This update is available for Google Chrome and should update itself automatically within the next 60 minutes. For information regarding Firefox, please read this announcement.

As always, please let me know if you encounter any issues with this release.

Serious Sam is a wicked gahbidge series for chowdaheads.
At the risk of over explaining the joke, but to give you insight into how my brain works:

When choosing exactly how to mess with the title of the thread, I ruminated on a few possible paths.

Initially, because it was a thread going up on April Fools day, I thought, "Oh, just make a uPlay or GFWL thread and pretend we're in the worst possible timeline." The problem with this approach was that, despite any jokes I was going to put into it, I wanted this to be the Steam thread you are all stuck with for the month. I didn't want to give any grounds for anyone else to make the "real" Steam thread after the day was up. This principle is also why the OP is still a functional OP and not a bunch of over the tops jokes.

So, I thought for a while about how to alter the title. I thought about the throw-back "stearn" joke, but discarded it as it's an obvious joke that would not be given a second thought by anyone posting in the thread. I arrived at "Steam" because I felt it would make the most amount of people uncomfortable as it didn't stick to either convention while still being a perfectly normal and legitimate way to present it.

"steam" in all lowercase achieves the same goal, I think, if being a little more obvious.

So long story short:

For you.
This is weird. I won Cognition GOTY from jshackles but it won't let me activate it, says I already own it. (i do own the first two episodes). Seems I will have to contact support to remove what I have first before I can redeem it.

Please, capitalize Steam, morningbus.
Otherwise there will be more geetav giveaways, and we can't unleash that pain on the world... Especially since it takes away the chance of it being a giveaway I'm actually interested in =p

Ugh, debating between GTA5 and Mortal Kombat (with or without the season pass). Only have enough for one this month (comfortably) and I'm really struggling to decide. I'm a huge huge MK fan (have the first 3 arcades at my parents' place) but GTA5 would be a new experience for me.

Sigh. Suggestions? Points that I may not have considered?
