Question! To enter the ModBot giveaway, I just need to copy-paste the line with the code right?

Yes, and enter a subject title since PM's can't be sent without those.

fraud exposed!

I'm so glad my giveaway earlier worked. ;_;

 

[Lomax]

Seriously. On only the 2nd mission and I put a guy on the roof like it told me to, but then I could never get him off or move him anywhere. Mouse wheel function stopped working(not a problem with my mouse) out of nowhere and then it got to where I clicked on 'fire' option and there was nothing to fire at cuz my guy is way behind on the map stuck on the roof and then it wouldn't let me get out of the fire mode. There was a button to click to go back to movement mode or something but it didn't do anything. Hitting escape didn't do anything, either. Couldn't get into the pause menu or anything. Had to F4 out of the game.

Literally broken. I don't use that term lightly.

Just because it broke for you doesn't make it a broken game. Everyone has issues with some games, that's the reality of PC gaming. XCOM is far from a universally broken game. Sorry about your bad luck, but you're off base here.

 

[Sarcasm]

What do I do with boater peaks? Sell or open?

 

[Spinluck]

You can't. Would love such a feature though...

What if I already own the game? Will it still take it?

I think it is an extra key I got from Humble Bundle.

The suspense is killing me... WHO IS ANONYMOUS

LOL. I love when these anonymous people take a key and then do a giveaway to try to "mega-giver" themselves.

I think it would be better if anonymous giveaways didnt count towards megagiver status.

 

[tioslash]

Hi, is there a limit to the number of games that I can claim per day on the giveaways?

 

[Arthea]

I still don't understand all debacle with Battleblock theater. It is a new game, not only it goes on sale for -75%, which is already surprising, the next day it's included in -90% bundle?
Did something like that ever happened before?

 

[corrosivefrost]

Did frost actually win or was that shopped?

I won...

I sat there checking the original post on 65 -- but I don't think modbot was updating that one since you reposted it with <30 minutes to go... so I went to find that post and saw I had a PM.

My heart skipped and I figured someone was just screwing with me. And as I saw the PM from modbot in my inbox, my jaw dropped and I just stared for a minute mumbling "no way... no fucking way..."

Then the laughter started... and I came back to see that Sub Zero had already made the best post that could've been made.

 

[AHA-Lambda]

Unfortunately I don't this is the case.

Dammit, I already entered before I thought of it.

K, if I win I'll nuke it and resubmit unless there is a way to pull out?

[neoemonk]

I checked the games list of games I've given away and it says one of them was given to ModBot. Does that mean that no one ever claimed it, and if so how do I repost that sucker?

Thank you for the answer
Just making sure I'm doing it right because you know, I never win anything up to this point .__,

 

[Kiru]

Will it still take it? I think it is an extra key I got from Humble Bundle.

It won't take it then. It will just say that you already own the product.

[zugzug]

weow! Arma 3 time baby! jumping on that Altis Life Juggernaut...even though my computer will struggllle to run the game.

Anyone know if the Deus Ex 3: Director's cut is that much different than the original game?
its costing $9.99 with a whole set of different achivements looks like.

I don't think there is and use your best judgement with the matter if you happen to win it. I don't really care if you just claim it for CC or make it a giveaway of your own.

 

[Stumpokapow]

Hi, is there a limit to the number of games that I can claim per day on the giveaways?

Well, there are per-giveaway rules, but there's also the global throttle. The global throttle limits you to one game every 15 minutes unless you have been winning lots of games, then it will steadily increase the cooldown period. At the top of the cooldown period you'll need to wait several days. I don't make the current throttle settings or cutoffs public because I don't want to encourage people just entering for anything and everything. Just because you can win a half-dozen or more games a day doesn't mean you should.

oh well, I give up. i'm obviously not cut out for this lol!

that was me. tried to nuke the key but I guess I did not do it right or follow instructions properly.

If it was a URL rather than a key, nuking can be kind of picky. Just add an ampersand at the end of the url and you'll get around the filter. Maybe do a non-anonymous giveaway this time, though

Yes, but I mean in general. I ask this because I´ve claimed 2 games today on the giveaways, and now any new giveaway I enter for a game that I want and can see it´s been unclaimed for quite a while, I never get it.

Well, there are per-giveaway rules, but there's also the global throttle.

Are we allowed to give away stuff not through Modbot? I have an extra link to the humble site for FTL and Urban Trial Freestyle that I kind of didn't mean to buy .

Yes, but it's in your favor to use modbot, especially if you enter giveaways yourself. I.e. Giving away a total of 25 games within a period of time allows you temporary Mega Giver status, so you can, for example, enter Rhakky's Folly giveaways.
