Wow, was that from a giveaway or just an "out of the blue' Gift?

Out of the blue. That & 10+mb/s download =

Now that I'm part of the steam group and filled up my friends list it's interesting browsing the members and seeing all the different games being played. My friends list before was nothing but Dota 2.

Well now nbnt needs to be considered among the titans known as Sub Zero, Dupy, and Rhaknar (sorry if I forgot any of the other giants).

Oh, so they are the Titans we need two of for that giveaway. Now do we have to kidnap them until we get the game or just harness their brains as GPUs to run the game?

I started Guacamelee last night with my girlfriend, and I really appreciate how the co-op bubble mechanic works. If there's a tough platforming section coming up, she can turn into a bubble while I do the platforming, then I just pop the bubble when I'm done and she can participate in the fights. That said, I'm going to finish it in single player because the platforming challenges are taking (way) too many tries and too much time, and I refuse to skip a room with an item until I've gotten it.

Guys.
Guys.
Larian are SteamGAFfers, confirmed.
I just ran into... someone I address as sir shell.

I actually idle in the SteamGAF chat everyday. Seems like a different crowd of people than the ones that post here though. Still a pretty cool group of chatters though.

Yeah, I'm not in the Steam GAF group.
I can't keep track of multiple places at once!

I've got dibs on Sub Zero. Besides being a brother of the ice and snow, all the cold will help me keep my rig operating at maximum speeds.

Oh you guys <3

Thank YOU for your kindness and warm welcome. But please don't call me "god" or "santa" :p I'm not a better "giver" than anyone in the steam threads, you're all amazing each one of you!

The generosity of everyone here blows me away. :)

(I wish I'd given out even more in the sale, but my wallet was becoming dangerously empty, haha!)

Just got an email from steam support (noreply@steampowered.com), subject line "Steam account - Forgotten password" with a code to put in to reset my password... but I didn't request anything like that. What does this mean and do I need to do anything?
 
I'm having some issues with Kingdoms of Amalur; after playing the game for a little while, the frame goes to shit. It start to lag, stutter and the audio becomes choppy. Does anyone have this game and experience this? Thanks

The Steam equivalent of the drunk friend who keeps offering to pay your tab all night.
The only Titan thing about me is my penis

That's not true at all :(

Also nice Spintires giveaway, I'm not entering because I am officially self-blacklisting myself from all giveaways

People being obsessed with Saoirse makes me feel like I can toss out my super-non exaggerated and non fake obsession with Leda pretty soon.

Don't do it. If you do i'm just gonna have to post about Ariana again.

I think someone tried to access your account.

Either:

- Someone knows the e-mail address tied to your account, or (more likely)
- Someone used a key you've registered to send the e-mail (if you can't remember your account name, you can instead use a CD key to send the e-mail)

Unless your e-mail account password is weak/similar to your Steam one, there's no need to worry.

You should probably change your password.

I have the game, but I never had any performance issues with it. How long has it been since you rebooted and do you have a lot of stuff open that might be hogging memory?

That's probably a good idea. Whatever disease afflicts you with this unending generosity seems to taking over -- so even if you won, you'd be compelled to give it away afterwards, I bet.

I have no idea what Spintires is.

I'm not proud to admit that I've seen quite a few streams of people playing this game. It's strange but I love to watch those, it can be quite a challenge and your truck can get stuck in the mud most of the times. Patience is key for this game. Yet, I found it very relaxing.

It's funny how simulating something relatively mundane can be relaxing, when the real thing would be irritating or boring.
 

nbnt

is responsible for the well-being of this island.
Stump really needs to give you a user title after that spectacular feat of giving in the sale thread.

You have already earned your place among the generous, as far as I'm concerned.

It's like those "who's the greatest MC of all time" debates -- "who's the most generous to steamGAF", you ask?

Well now nbnt needs to be considered among the titans known as Sub Zero, Dupy, and Rhaknar (sorry if I forgot any of the other giants).
Thank you, kind sir. :) But no, really, I don't deserve that. Those guys have been giving a lot for a long time. My giveaways were far, far fewer and I probably won't do another big giveaway until I actually get a job. :p

Also, terribly sorry if it's not the right place, but I just wanted to say a few words.

I wanna thank everyone for all the love during the summer sale, all the kind words and the gifts.. You guys made my last week a very happy one with all your kindness.

As for those who were wondering about me, sorry I didn't reply to you in the previous threads, I don't "work for Valve" :p and I'm certainly not a rich guy. As to "why".. well, like all the amazingly generous people here, I just like giving out stuff, it makes me happy to see others happy. And GAF.. GAF has been a part of my life since 2008, literally. I laughed with GAF, cried with GAF, watched my favorite show with GAF (LOST, btw). But I wasn't part of GAF until last year, when I finally was able to register. So I just wanted to give something back.

Thank you all for such a wonderful ride.
