I blame Salsa's giveaway for MEGAGIVERS.

So I've heard. I will be looking into it before the Flash sale is over.

It does seem kind of strange that Indie Gala's latest bundle includes 8-Bit Commando, but they don't have keys for previous bundle owners.
Why what happened to Murph? :O

I do enjoy that every time someone gives away Edge, Mirror's Edge is the image.
Damnit, really? lol

Lucky you !
Are you okay?
You've been knighted by Modbot! It must be an honor. I dont even own bad rats lol.

I think thats the consensus at this point. Which makes sense from valve's end, but is kinda shitty at the same time.

Go home, Modbot, you're drunk!
LOL congrats on that! Seeing people give out Bad Rats makes me want to Giveaway my Pat & Mat, but whenever I use Send Email to get the code... it doesn't send it all. It's only this one game that's doing it, and I think it's a sign.
what a weird thing to call me out on... I guess I could then say "and you could have PMed him instead of telling me not to tell people to PM him" and we would go back and forth forever.
it wasnt even lazyness, Im just not affected by this and more importantly have no actual examples like the affected people do.
But I guess you are technically right, I could have PMed him myself and say "I think modbot is on the fritz because reasons", so...sorry?
again, what a weird thing to get hung up on

I got a question, Is it wise to play Skyrims Dragonborn DLC before finishing the main quest? Or does it have a lot of spoilers?

Gentlemen, we can rebuild it. We have the capability to make the world's first enhanced store. Steam will be that store. Better than it was before.
It almost makes me sick to think what my inbox is going to look like when this release goes live - people are not going to like it. I don't like it either. But I can either throttle the API calls, or I've been threatened that they'll remove all Enhanced Steam's users access to Steam, so I guess it's better than nothing and my hands are pretty much tied.
My enthusiasm for getting a job at Valve has gone down quite a bit since this whole thing started, honestly. I think that opening a dialog was nice, but rate-limiting your API and threatening to cut off user's access without giving me a chance to implement the changes you suggest... that just seems disingenuous.
Play them any way you want.
Ah whoops, I probably should have been clearer. Ah well, guess it was a bit like a raffle in that case then.Ah my bad, I thought you meant that you'd just send it in a PM. Oh well. Thanks for letting me know at least

Did not know that, lol
It is a really crappy situation. You suggested users voice their concerns to Valve, what is the best way to go about doing that?

Sorry, can someone explain to the this 5 team points-making thing? Why is the winner every day a huge blowout, with all other teams having pretty much the same number of points? I'm very confused; is there just a lot of message board collusion, and on one day, everyone gets the word out that it's time for blue team to craft all their badges today?

That's all it seems to be, just collusion to have every team win twice. Nothing more, nothing less.

I managed to pick up several of those $6 MasterCard things that were making the rounds before. Problem is that I used so many that Steam won't accept them anymore. So I used them to buy some Amazon gift cards.
I've got $24 in Amazon gift cards and $13 in GMG Credit. ARMA 3 is on sale for $30. If anyone thinks they'd like to try and work something out let me know.

For all that they've implemented other stuff you've done, the least they could do is implement the features you have to cut, too.

Might want to remove the "home" from your link, we can't view your activity page, so it sends everyone to their own activity page.
People were talking about that, but the sheer amount teams are winning by is too much for even a decent sized group of forum-goers/redditors/etc. to be swaying.
Basically, it's almost assuredly a fixed contest by valve.
It's not much, but with how generous everyone here is, I'm trying to find every possible thing I can do to give back!

Why are there so many thumbs down for gone home? I found it to be a beautiful experience it's all about the.
I'll tell you what some of the top rated thumbs down on my Gone Home Steam Store page boil down to (they are in Italian, so different from what most of you guys get):
Costs too much for what the game is. The game is short, it's a narrative game and with the level of praise it received by many, the story ended feeling banal even if the users liked it.
Those feel like understandable reasons for giving it a thumb down in my opinion, even if I haven't played the game so I don't know if I'd agree with them.
Sorry to hear. I know I'm just some random gaffer, but I like and use (and will continue to use) Enhanced Steam. You're doing great work.

Sounds shitty.
I still remember the Valve that would love people to try everything possible to make Steam a better experience...
I wonder what happened.
To me it seems Valve puts more and more shit into their client. I am not sure how the client works, since I dont have a clue about I.T., but is it still in the core the same client from 2003?
the problem here is, voice their concerns about what exactly? A third party mod that tells people when its best NOT to use steam and instead use other stores?
Im surprised they havent shut it down tbh, from a business standpoint it makes no sense. Not defending them btw, just looking at the reality of it and what little jshackles or the users can do about it

I started watching The Wire on Amazon Prime Wednesday. So despite spending $120 on the steam sale I haven't installed any of them. Damn this show is addicting.

People always recommend that show to me, but I haven't taken the plunge. Maybe now that I finally finished Season 2 of House of Cards...

I'm not sure honestly. Steam support isn't going to know what to tell you (guaranteed you'll get the "check your LAN settings" autoresponder) and I don't feel like I should be sending an army of angry people after the guy who made the decision to make the change, maybe I'm just too nice.
GabeN, maybe? If Valve had a "community manager", I'd say you should start there, but they don't.
It's on sale right this moment.
Amazing show, probably my favorite ever.
