Ah, glad someone got that Worms Crazy Golf code from SephirothRK's generous giveaway. It's actually quite fun in a relaxing sort of way as you plan your shots and occasionally kill other worms, while going for a best run. Hopefully someday they make a sequel. Only Worms game worth playing single player.

Same issue with the ModBot key.

EDIT: If you get a ModBot key, is it possible to make a secret ModBot giveaway using the key and making yourself the winner so you get the game for real? Or does it not work like that at all?

It appears I've won Gemini Rue. Like the others have said I've just got a MB code. Hmmm

Great giveaway tho! Awesome stuff.

Besides Steam constantly asking me to log-in, the last 3 times it's asked me to verify my location by entering in a code they send me via email.

It says something about my IP address being near Maryland, but I'm not.

Should I be worried?

Thanks SephirothRK for NS2! Another game for the "gotta shoot some Aliens" collection. =)

Like some of the others, it looks like Modbot sent me the key I used to enter.

Heh. You gonna have a bad time if you go into NS2 thinking like that. Be terrified of aliens.

I think they have been having a problem with the IP stuff being correct lately. Last time I logged onto the website and went through the normal enter your email code stuff it said my IP was somewhere else in the country. I wouldn't worry about it.

from the forums:
Simply put: Geolocation tracking by IP is inaccurate ignore it unless it says you are connecting from a diffrent country or if you are absolutely no where near the location provided and even then it might still be you because of the inaccuracy.

Don't Starve is amazing, except for the thing where sometimes you can't pick up an object because no matter which way you swing the camera it'll be hidden behind a tree
 
I was pretty happy I finally got Guac... then i saw

Use the space bar instead of the mouse to pick things up (if I recall correctly). Much easier.

A great time-waster, just like Civ which I have been pouring hours into it like it was Spanish wine. I want wine now.

been playing a bit of the last of us today and I feel so bad this isn't on pc, I imagine a lot of you would've loved it

then again having ps3's is pretty normal outside argieland so I suppose it's not many people that miss out on it

For anyone trying to set up x360ce for Guacamelee:

You have to rename the file xinput1_3.dll to xinput9_1_0.dll if your controller doesn't get recognized. That did the trick for me.

Being a steam sale vet, it's kind of sad watching the new sales come and go and nothing I don't already own looking good :(

Ugh I want it at that price! Damn my money currently being in Steam wallet. Wallet was stolen with my credit card etc so I had to resort to getting Steam wallet cards from EB.

For those confused. Australian, would normally get a friendly GAFfer from the US to assist.

EDIT: Holy shit. Thanks Drmiha!

Does it work?
I ask because last I checked those arseholes at deep sliver put region locks on games like last light so that it only works in the country it was bought it?

There are so many great games that should eventually make their jump to PC. Dark Souls is a great example of a good trend. That one is selling like cupcakes these days.
