Personally I'm more offended by people using Destiny beta codes as ModBot giveaways than the crappy indie bundle games to qualify for those pay it forward stuff.

Dammit, it is a Facebook-like giveaway.

Nevermind, I was able to make a fake throwaway Facebook account and get a key.

Apparently Facebook does not accept "Jane Doe" as a valid real name, but "Nowai Jose" is perfectly fine. What if you were actually named "Jane Doe"...

We'll get you there, we swear.

The stuff I quoted only goes into the PM to Modbot.

Also, is this mystery game different than the Thief Gold you posted earlier? Because that key is definitely gone.

Yeah, mystery game is a different game. Also I wish that was an Anonymous giveaway, only that could make it more fun.
Anyway, my actual worry is the repost, since modbot will probably repost it since nobody ever taken it from modbot.

Hey Stump, is it possible to create a rule like PayItFoward where its either

1) You have to gift away a game BEFORE the raffle is registered, otherwise even if you try to do it afterward. It wouldn't count toward that raffle.

2) Or keep everything the same, but make it so that you have to gift away a game that is $5-10 to be able to qualify. Since Modbot can detect when a game is over $30 right? would it be able to detect smaller amount?

I think the $5-$10 rule would be ideal, since if it's a 24 hour raffle it's feasible that someone could end up winning another game in that time interval thus disqualifying them unless they give away something else.

Isn't the problem with the second one that ModBot can't distinguish bundle games? Even the crappy games in these bundles are like $5 on Steam.

Was my explanation to Tizoc of modbot checking qualifications mostly right?

What exactly is pay it forward stuff? I'm honestly surprised people are still so hot for more Batman, had more than enough fill with the last three.

I recently hit 1,000 games on Steam so I thought I should give a little back to BestGAF.

*Note: Warlock 2 is the Great Mage Edition and not the plain version.


And no, this is not so I can enter the Arkham Knight giveaway. I am not entering it.

"Pay It Forward" means that you can only qualify for a raffle if you've given away a game through ModBot since the last time you won something.

Any time someone puts the pay it forward rule in a ModBot giveaway, you see an influx of low tier bundle games. It's made even worse with Destiny beta codes lately. Even the Dead Island Epidemic beta stuff is pretty bad in my opinion.

Glad to hear the Room is coming to Steam. Think they'll make a fair amount of cash there if the port is solid. I hate it when games have iOS artefacts in their UI and feel.

What was that indie pixelart kickstarter game with that sexy lighting? I think there was a campfire scene (not Shovel Knight).
