What are most GAFfers doing with their coal? Collecting, crafting?

I'm curious, lately not even coal I get, only coupons...!

Collecting. I have over 40 lumps of coal and 10 coupons - the fact I haven't won a game makes me hesitant to craft.

Well I already got 2 games, crafted 7 coal, got a coupon and I have 9 coupons..! If I get more coal I guess I'll craft, if it's more coupons so be it, I had my share of luck.

I'm the latest person to win a game because of Feep. Got Nuclear Dawn for the Sequence achievement, which I was wanting to try!

it's a logical fact that trading your coal for a game you want will result in happiness compared to leaving it to a gamble and getting a coupon of 10% off a game you already have.
 
I know I'm a day late, but what exactly am I supposed to do for the Space Pirates and Zombies achievement? I broke through the first blockade and made it to the second system, did a mission, and now it wants me to go 4 systems over. did I miss something? What should I be looking for?

Nobody answered, so here we go again:

I haven't played Edge but Rush is fantastic. It's a "sit and think" type of puzzle game and can be quite hard especially when trying to get the timing down. If you like that type of game and don't mind being stuck often (don't ever look up the solution to a puzzle in a game like this...there's no point in it) then you'd probably love it. At least give the demo a shot.

Obviously. But it is also a logical fact that if you have a game that people might be interested in, you are going to get a lot more happiness trading it for another game you want rather than virtually worthless coal.

*sigh* This is the part I don't like about Steam Sales. The Steam servers are just getting pummeled, making downloads so very slow. Which isn't a problem for a 100MB indie game, but when it's a 20GB Total War game, it can get annoying.

Is Shogun 2 20GB?

Just enter some missions in the second system, after a while an item will drop, Santa will fly by, elf will be thrown in an airlock by Santa.

Save the elf!

Tried the Edge demo, and while it was enjoyable (and I love the visual style) I'm not sure it could keep me interested for very long. So I'm probably gonna pass on it. Now, let's see what the Rush demo has to offer...

Been playing The Binding of Isaac for a good hour and a half, entered the satans room twice, but neither time did Krampus show up. The game is incredibly frustrating...it's not a bad game, but I just can't play it anymore right now...

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

I FINALLY got to Satan's Room.

It FINALLY had a Krampus

I was doing very very well against him.



.... Then my 21 month old decided that moment was the best moment to run up and mash at my keyboard.
