Support NeoGAF

[derExperte]

Is normal to see a publisher do a daily with all their games?

No

 

[DTKT]

Out of curiosity, how is the bot programmed? How are you interfacing between the browser and whatever backend you might have?

 

[The_Monk]

Corto is a gentleman and a scholar and has responded to my whiny bitching of missing giveaways by gifting me Gunslinger

if I had a dog, I would make him eat some chocolate just so I could take him to his veterinary care

He's a great person fellow GAFfer, so go ahead and give much more Bro-hugs to that fellow GAFfer!

Don't forget!

 

[DeadlyVirus]

My current steam profile is already recovered. And I did redeem them all, minus the ones I gave away. Happy?

So you redeemed games just to give them away? Alrighty...

 

[Grief.exe]

A negative opinion is now called a bizarre vendetta? I am sure there are a few people not speaking out against this clogging up the sales thread because its by a mod. Maybe it will quiet down a bit after a few days, but currently I dont feel like participating much in this thread because it definitely is more bloated through this program and talk about how the program works than in previous threads, in which I had many discussions about the quality of games.

But sure, every negative criticism is a "bizarre vendetta" instead of something that might be something to consider the use. Get your blinders off. But I can see how that might be hard for you since you are personally invested in the tool. Still, maybe someone should create a game discussion thread if this keeps clogging up the thread (since I apparently wasnt the only one agreeing with this).

So all the keys that have been given, but not taken according to that stats thing, are they just kind of lost unless someone goes through the thread to find them somehow?

 

[The Illiterati]

Just quote this message and paste the quote in the thread:

I am giving away a Steam key. To enter this giveaway, send a PM to ModBot with any subject line and copy the key line below into the body of the PM.

Rules for this Giveaway:
- If you are a lurker--if you have both five or fewer posts in this Steam thread and five or fewer posts in the immediate previous one--you are not eligible for this giveaway.
- If you won a game from ModBot recently [since the start of beta testing for ModBot], you are not eligible for this giveaway.
- If the key is already taken you will not receive a reply. Replies may take a minute or two:

By the way, there were some errors processing your keys...
Error: The key you tried to add for Cargo Commander failed because it was already added to ModBot for an earlier giveaway. It is listed as being a key for Cargo Commander and has the secure key MB-3712D1A87A0ABC97

Key should still work, I never got the original message. Let me know.

 

[Caerith]

I don't get the java joke, was he the one with the hulk avatar?

Hulk with santa hat was Leon Belmont (he has since changed it).

The Jawa joke is because he went on a streak of sniping every key that popped up and then rubbing it in everyone else's faces, so naturally a lot of people are sore at him. (It probably doesn't help that his every post since joining has been argumentative, devoid of content, trolling, or lamenting his superiority.)

 

[Stumpokapow]

I sent a key/gift link 10 min ago, but still no reply. Should I try again?

I'm seeing three giveaways--2x Hotline Miami and 1x McPixel--all of which were posted. If it's not any of those, send again.

 

[javadots]

Maybe if you didn't act like an asshole with your "i'm gonna take everything because i can" type posts bragging about it, people would not be so harsh on you.

Hey I made an apology and I've given most of my won games away as penance.

Which Terminator is that from? Don't recognize that scene. First one?

For what it's worth, the thread speed is so fast in large part because GAF is twice as large as it was last summer sale and probably 50% or more larger than it was last winter sale.

Really? Wow. I wonder how it compares to when I first registered (early 2007).

Another one of Salsa's perfect gifs

Be nice. Toma has a valid point.

 

[DeadlyVirus]

Says the guy who redeemed more games than Java. lol.

Redeemed games I really wanted, didn't not give them away just to make it look like I gave something away. And I did give away other games (not the ones I won with the modbot)

 

[Grief.exe]

Which Terminator is that from? Don't recognize that scene. First one?

It might be the Eraser

 

[brandonh83]

I do wish Bioshock Infinite would drop a little more. $30's... okay... but I was hoping for something a bit more hardcore. $20 and I would have bought it point blank, now I'm just contemplating.

 

[MonkeyDot]

Key should still work, I never got the original message. Let me know.

I had the same problem. To the guy that gets the game, please mention it here, The Illiterary will have to give it to you manually, since this method doesn't have all the automatic shit.

 

[John Caboose]

Its terminator 1. Just saw it.

 

[ashecitism]

Which Terminator is that from? Don't recognize that scene. First one?

The first one of course. Why would Arnie kill a woman otherwise? And of course his hairdo.

 

[Sajjaja]

Which Terminator is that from? Don't recognize that scene. First one?

Quite clearly the first one.

 

[Ledsen]

So what's up guys, I heard there's some kind of digital download sale going on?

I had to say this, I had never watched terminator in my life, but this thread makes me want to do it

 

[PriitV]

So what's up guys, I heard there's some kind of digital download sale going on?

Who told?

 

[Chrysalis]

Wait...so GMG price matched steam on Bioshock, but the 20% off coupon doesn't work? Why would they just match? Who's going to buy from them rather than direct without extra incentive?

 

[MonkeyDot]

So what's up guys, I heard there's some kind of digital download sale going on?

No, there's MADNESS going on.

 

[~Kinggi~]

The GMG Bioshock Infinite which is 29.99, the voucher isnt working for me to get an extra 20% off, is that normal?

 

[28 Posts Later]

Can a daily be cheaper than a flash sale?

Obviously there's no precedent for this sale, but they haven't been in other sales and doing so would just cause paranoia some potencial consumers so it's very, very unlikely.

 

[Timedog]

What would all of you fine folks say if I told you I was going to be giving away a copy of Bad Rats to 1 ultra lucky user every day until the end of the sale?

 

[TheD]

So what's up guys, I heard there's some kind of digital download sale going on?

No, you are just crazy.

 

[Volotaire]

I'm waiting on Counter Strike GO. No doubt it will repeat again, and hopefully go for 75%. If not, then I will have another chance.

EDI: Actually nah I Might just go fo it, they won't reduce it to 75%.

 

[stressboy]

Which Terminator is that from? Don't recognize that scene. First one?.

Watch Terminator 1.. now.

 

[catabarez]

Which Terminator is that from? Don't recognize that scene. First one?

Whoa

 

[Ivan A Nguyen]

Anyone else just randomly get 3 Toki Tori 2 coupons?

I got two for 10% off. They'll die of old age in my inventory.

 

[A Human Becoming]

The first one of course. Why would Arnie kill a woman otherwise? And of course his hairdo.

Quite clearly the first one.

Watch Terminator 1.. now.

Whoa

It's been a long time since I've seen it.

Man, I want that Sonic 3 & Knuckles

Are anonymous benefactor giveaways counted under your numbers, Stump?

 

[Mordeccai]

So what's up guys, I heard there's some kind of digital download sale going on?

You heard wrong. Go home. Nothing to see here.

Jeez, how can you be so misinformed!

 

[Horse Detective]

I had to say this, I had never watched terminator in my life, but this thread makes me want to do it

I'm pretty sure that movie is called "The ModBot". Not Terminator.

 

[-tetsuo-]

Now I see the purpose of the Toma GIF. Now I am laughing.

 

[Infinite Justice]

Which Terminator is that from? Don't recognize that scene. First one?

Yes.

IIRC she is the mother of one of the resistance generals in the robot's time

 

[Stumpokapow]

Really? Wow. I wonder how it compares to when I first registered (early 2007).

8 times as many users overall, at least that in active concurrent users.

Are anonymous benefactor giveaways counted under your numbers, Stump?

yes

 

[RibbedHero]

Thanks Cheddahz!

It's definitely Terminator 1. The bird he is shooting is a Sarah Connor.

 

[ashecitism]

I had to say this, I had never watched terminator in my life, but this thread makes me want to do it

woah woah woah dude

you better watch them asap

the first two that is

 

[SolarPowered]

I can't be the only one whose store page freezes up CONSTANTLY due to heavy traffic, right? Valve really needs to stop cheaping out here because browsing for games is impossible.

 

[Saty]

thank you stutte for scribblenauts.

 

[Grief.exe]

So what's up guys, I heard there's some kind of digital download sale going on?

What is this?

A sale for ants?

 

[PriitV]

Wait...so GMG price matched steam on Bioshock, but the 20% off coupon doesn't work? Why would they just match? Who's going to buy from them rather than direct without extra incentive?

They had the sale before Stearn seal.

It's the first Terminator .
