"it is in giving that we receive"
Nice work Team Pink. Too bad I didn't craft any badges yesterday to be eligible for the prizes. Oh well, no chance at winning anyway.

It's been a fun sale. I may be back tonight for some last minute giveaways. I think I still have some items left in my inventory:)

It's a nice idea but it would be better if points were awarded by getting achievements in games instead of filling valve's pockets
Yeah it seems like it would be better made so that actually playing the games benefited you more rather than buying your way to the end. I like the competition factor, I hope they do it again but with a serious overhaul as to how people can actually contribute.

Does crafting badges still drop summer cards?

Yes. This isn't the "end of sale" just the last/encore day. Monday/tomorrow at 10AM PST is when the sale ends/card's end of life happens an hour later.

i'd be all over it like cum on tits if i didn't already own it on ps3. But still the itch to buy lingers.


Just get it, dude. You'd replace your 720p with 1080p
that won't go higher because LOL JAPAN
. Worth it.

Can't believe Naruto only got one flash sale.

And I missed it.

Yeah I'm pretty angry about that. Terraria goes on sale for the 123981238th time but no naruto. I bought 2 copies to resell and they sold out like 2 days after the sale. Oh well hindsight is 20/20.

PSA: LAST CHANCE TO GET THE PINBALL ARCADE STARTER PACK FOR $.01 (includes 3 tables [ripleys believe it or not, black hole and theatre of magic] in addition to tales of arabian nights.. you have to go inside pinball arcade, and choose to buy any of the three tables I mentioned, one of the options will be for the launch/starter pack...

all 4 of those tables are good in their way (a nice balance of styles too if you are new to pinball) and is an absolute steal at a penny...

Ask me about the moon landing or the temperature at which jet fuel burns. You may be surprised at what you learn.
So did everyone enjoy the team race aspect or do you hope they ditch it for the future?

It was really stupid, get rid of it. Maybe if it was better implemented but no one likes to be on the losing team, especially when you don't even know if your contributions actually matter (and if they do, it isn't even a drop in the bucket).


These are just the opening 10 minutes.
 
Yay I'm in the new thread.

Sadness at green team losing in the last 5 seconds. :(

Bolded for emphasis. My first participation in the sale was before I understood the pacing of things and wasted about 10 badges when green was in 4th place. Though it was when the Reddit thing was going on, so I had no idea it was another team's "day".

I'd rather something like this in the future be done based on each person's badges if they're gonna do it. And refresh everybody's ability to generate cards back to zero, which gives people more reasons to play their older steam games they may not have opened for a year.

These are just the opening 10 minutes.
Revengeance is friggin amazing. DO IT.
 
(reposting @2 hours left)

Greetings pedestrian thread-goers, veteran Steam-users, and desperate wallet-emptiers alike! Step riiiight up, step right up!

Feeling let down after a long week of binge-refreshing this and other threads, hoping for amazing sale news?
Tired of staring at those games on your wishlist that just never quite seemed to want to go on sale?
Or d'ya simply get stuck on Team Blue-balls?

Well, I can't exactly help with all that, however...

Allow me to present to you Three Mysteeerrrrious Doors, each concealing a secret so intriguing - so mind-bending - that they must not be named here.
Choose one - and ONLY one - to see where your true fortune lies:

Will Real Horror overcome you, rendering you a senseless mass of nightmares and despair?

Will you feel the gnawing of Rats at your very soul - taking their Revenge on you for their own twisted existence?

Or, will you stand up, Dust yourself off, and press on into the future, 'til your own Tail's end?

May Lady Luck find you... before despair takes you!
ha ha... hahHA... MUAHAHAHAHAAAAAaaaahhh...

Same. Seems really interesting.

I guess there's always Winter.

all the devolver games had a sale a few weeks ago, on steam and humble. the newer games were only 20% off, but then again ASM is barely a month old.

overall i'd say it was a pretty good sale. a couple fresh flash deals (or good community choice victories) in the middle of the sale might have made it a great one. i think i went 4 days straight without spending anything.

total, i spent about $100 and got about 70-80 games. that does include a big bundlestars purchase though. bummed about goodbye deponia , double dragon, the last door and ikaruga but i'll grab them when they pop up as dailies in the coming weeks. i have a 1, 3 and 10 summer card if anyone needs it.
 
Yes. This isn't the "end of sale" just the last/encore day. Monday/tomorrow at 10AM PST is when the sale ends/card's end of life happens an hour later.

Thanks, I have 5 summer cards left and was thinking about buying some cards to finish the set off and other badges as well, but I will just end up with moar summer cards then.
