Sorry I'm reposting this so quickly, but things get buried fast in this thread.

I think something that's most likely happening with the sale Meta is that there are popular traders who end up funneling a lot of sales points into their teams. They'd also be getting heaps of cards but they might be selling them to boost profit.

I think Valve made mistake with this metagame. People are willing spend amazing amount of money on cards, that's true, but I still believe that games make them more money, they should have setup this in such a way, that team points were awarded for buying games, not only for badges. But then again, may be that would be too complicated.

At this point during Steams lifespan you have a bunch of people who have bought all the games they'd want during the previous sales. Now they have a new way to get money from those people not buying as many games now.

Yeah, Valve is essentielly screwing 4 of the 5 teams, so aside from the initiall boost they won't get much out of them if there is no chance to win.

The last update was a huge improvement and it sounds like a lot of big things are coming in the near future, so it'd be the perfect time to have a decent sale.

I was so burned out on it in the beginning but the more features they add, the more addicted I get.

What if this whole team thing was rigged from the start and purple team was handcrafted by a team of valve employees to win.

Eh. Purple is going to win every day, giving me false hope before mercilessly crushing it over and over again.
This is my life now.

I hate it when older games get no discount at all. Like MDK2 HD or Pirates Odyssey: To Each His Own (I was going to recommend this game and the series it belongs too, but looks like the game is Russian-only, there is no English version lol, and the previous entries are not on Steam). These publishers just don't know what's up.

I'd also like to remind everyone that I'm currently helping people get anything from the Russian store for that exact price: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=117448007&postcount=8374

That's true, but people with huge game collections are still minority and I wasn't saying that crafting shouldn't be rewarded anyways.
