RE: Dark Souls / Dark Souls II, ModBot just searches using the same method you would if you typed "Dark Souls" into the top-right hand corner of the front page of Steam. It takes the game results, and chooses the result that is the closest to a match. "Dark Souls: Prepare to Die Edition" is further from "Dark Souls" than "Dark Souls II" is. There's supposed to be a guard to check against this specific outcome, and ModBot is also smart enough to convert roman numerals either direction, but it obviously didn't work in this case.

Sorry about that. Will repost.

With all this modbot gambling the ad server is starting to feed me online bingo ads.

This used to be a wholesome place.

listen to the mad man
Mod bot auto-searches the first thing that comes up for the title on the search bar.

Since the newest title is DS2, that's the image it goes for it you give it "Dark Souls." For the sake of accuracy, you might want to use the full title "Dark Souls: Prepare to Die Edition" but I don't think that's a sure-thing.

It doesn't go with the first thing, it's smart enough to loop through the results. It goes for the closest match to what you wrote lexicographically. The problem with the stupid subtitle is that it makes it seem like Dark Souls II is closer than Dark Souls: Prepare to Die Edition.

Sorry about that. Will repost.

No problem at all.

Not much better I'm afraid. I could barely find anyone. TrackMania United Forever though, still quite full and always someone there or tracks to pick up.

Speaking of which, as it it is free, we need more people from SteamGAF to play it. SO anyone looking for a great time trial competitive racer, get it. http://store.steampowered.com/app/11020/

Damn shame. Oh well. Thanks for the input!

And yes, if anyone likes arcade racers, go download TrackMania Nations Forever! It's fun and free!

dat DS2 trolling, amazing

Kirosia be fuming right about now

Nah, my only peeve is that I'd be disqualified from any giveaways with "if you won in the last..." restrictions, but this place has very been kind to me, and I'd never complain. Especially not in the presence of her blond majesty, Saoirse. I'd not sully her pristine world with my trivial ignominy. Because that's what the end result would be. Maybe I... I hurt her in another life, or someone she loves, or JaseC, not been to Australia but have eaten those chocolate koalas... and this giveaway was my own inflictions repaid.

I know I'm LTTP for a Steam Sale thread, but who do I have to murder for Transistor not being Community Choice?

Still bought Dark Souls 1 & Rogue Legacy...and I got a foil trading card from #TeamPink winning (which frees up $2 in play money to complete sets for the remainder of the sale), so I have little else to complain about
as long as Transistor eventually gets a daily
.

Don't think it will, it was in a Flash sale though so could be wrong.
 
Been waiting to do this for a while now; there may or may not be an issue with RAGE/Far Cry 2 (accidentally clicked the links before sending them to ModBot, but I think I took care of it.) I apologize if there is. Enjoy, GAF!

Thanks for Two Worlds. I got confused for a moment and sent another message to modbot for Septerra Core too, lol.
 
My first giveaway :). Got to get rid of these games out my inventory.

Thanks for The First Templar Indigo_Cyclops!

Replaying Broken Sword with a friend and it's put me in the mood for more Templar shenanigans. Just bought The Cursed Crusade, now this. Good times ahead!

Modbot's been working overtime in this thread. GAF is super generous, so many giveaways. It's grand.

So if "Dark Souls: Prepare to Die Edition" has a ":" in it, I can just put another ":" at the end, a space, and then the key, right?
