Let me stop you right there. You have excellent suggestions....and unfortunately no one will care.
It's the thread we live in....
Did you buy it on the last day?
How is this game? I was a big fan of the board game. Is there online MP?
Wonderful, you just implied I made a shit thread.
Don't know why they made that change but still have them expire an hour later after the sale. Kind of lame.
Dude, that was a perfect setup for a "This is how we live now"

GUYS
QUICK SUGGESTIONS FOR THE FUTURE OF THIS MOTHEREFFING THREAD SERIES
1) YOUR SALE LOOT
Most definitely there will be a proper thread for you to show how cool is your Steam library now. Please refrain posting your loot here, but do shamelessly there, along with your super fast internet speeds, your desktop wallpapers and the reason behind your nicknames.
2) THE FIRST PAGE OF THE NEXT THREAD
You'll eventually get to 5 posts to meet ModBot's NOLURKER rule, but it isn't really essential to get there in the very first page of the thread.
Now please, we don't need 400 posts of people greeting the new thread. Please, really.
A biweekly thread will be really hard to manage.
3) WHEN YOU WIN A GIVEAWAY
Would you (and I mean me too) please thank the giver via private message? Please? Pretty please?
Ok thanks for reading have fun, don't read the thread and drive.
sadly even if it's posted in the op, no one will ever read it
there was still people asking if they should buy x game despite it not being a daily/flash/community deal (not on the final encore day)
THE REAL SUMMER SALE IS HERE! FINALLY!
lmao
Playing The Banner Saga right now. Combat seems a bit more shallow than I like these games :/ Otherwise very nice.
Subscribers gotta subscribe.

Not a bad sale overall. I played a bit of Long Live the Queen that I picked up. It's a good game (mot as great as some gaffers might make it out to be. But if you've seen some gameplay videos and are interested, it's a worthy purchase. At least, it was for me.
The rest of the games I picked up will probably never be played and just sit in my backlog, but hey, STEAM POKEMON!

bathrooms are wonderful
they let people dump their crap without getting it all over the rest of the house~
steam wat
I just wanted to send out my gifts via mail to give them away through ModBot and now this?
I haven't done anything bad, Gabe pls
Steam gets confused around daily rollover time.
Try again later.
Divinity: Original Sin isn't going to play itself.
I'd watch if it did though.

You'll just have to buy them and craft the badge...
Did you pay with your wallet? I got that for Toki Tori 2+ (paid with wallet) but not castle crashers DLC for some reason.steam wat

The rest of my haul is all gifted to inventory without that restriction.
Maybe it is where I did the purchases that matters rather than what.

Now that that's over, back to the old avatar.
Looking forward to the new thread. Got a nice giveaway ready for it.

Better than last year, at least for me, or my memory sucks, one of those.

Rockstar Social. Though once that activates its pretty unobtrusive.

hmm, other DRM?
rockstar social club guranteed
whether or not they have securom/gameshield etc which they've used in their more recent titles is anyone's guess
It might still be something else, but I often get a "hey, you're not logged in" or "this item is no longer in your inventory" message when I try to do anything in my inventory around this time... from inside the client.
Just wait, and hopefully it'll fix itself.
hmm, other DRM?
Every DD store that isn't GamersGate has been selling Steam keys for R* games for at least a year now. I strongly doubt that R* is still using GameShield in 2014.
Somehow, just under £4 appeared in my PayPal as if by magic, so while Astebreed was still out of the question, I could at least close out the sale with Blood Dragon, which I've been waiting for a deal on for ages. Love me some 80's cheese.
So, my final haul...is available for those who want to quote my post. I'm not going to spam up the thread with a useless post in its dying moments, I'm not that cruel.
Goodbye, Steam Summer Sale. You were...something. My avatar shall remind me of our glorious Red victory, but I won't remember much else about ya. You were...forgettable.
here's my final haul, for those interested:
Far Cry 3 - Blood Dragon
Brothers - A Tale of Two Sons (gift)

SteamWorld Dig

I believe those cards are going to (or should have by now) vanish.
oh I didn't know about the gameshield thing, the other R* games on gmg have the steam logo, so I thought this is new
