Pending orders can sit there until they expire, usually you need the confirmation of payment from whatever payment service you are using. You might want to check the GamersGate Pending order info page in the email you probably got after initiating your order. You should be able to get back to the payment confirmation window from there. At least you can with paypal. I just kept clicking the send payment button until it finally registered. It took a while for me.

Do you know how long it takes until they expire by themselves?

Right before the site went offline they removed a forum topic about Borderlands 2 keys not showing up. I think I wasted one key by gifting it to myself 
I always thought it was possible with gamersgate.
Stuff I got during this sale:
-Hotline Miami (awesome!)
-Bioshock 2 (steam gift)
-Borderlands 2 (gamersgate)

Now I'm worried about GamersGate going bankrupt and never receiving my Bethesda Bundle.
I paid through Moneybookers, when I click "Complete Payment" it tells the transaction already went through, so there's nothing else I can do to complete the order

Don't feel bad. I paid $9.99 from Amazon. It was cheapest at the time in July.Binary Domain is -75% off on greenmangaming click me comes down to 4,32 with 30% off voucer GMG30-DPLIM-DN831
and I payed 6,24.- on steam
Should have waited.Are you locking on your guys? It's really more about help d in 2k13 than 1-on-1. I find the FG% to be pretty accurate at the end of the games.
I'd say read my OT on these games, where I even explain why these games are badly received.:
http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?p=45801963
And preferably ask questions there since I cant keep up with the Steam thread atm. They are not the best games in the world, but definitely worth 4 bucks with the amount of content they offer.

At one point I believe it was 10 days. Please don't take that as absolute fact though.

Is it possible to scale the grid-view icons down more than the UI/skin allows us?
I own about 60 games in my library and if the icons were a little more smaller they would fit on one screen without scrolling down. I am using 1680 x 1050 and get 6 rows.

Did you get a confirmation email from your payment processor? That is the only proof I would accept that an actual payment went through.

I just can't believe I missed another fuckup by gamersgate. Site isn't even loading for me now.

You get an email AND you can see your account having less money then befor.
My problem wasn't the guy I was guarding manually, it's the CPU not doing anything. A bunch of times they left the area right under the hoop completely open and at least 1 guy would be there waiting for the ball. What were they doing instead? I have no idea.
A good 60% of the time that I missed a shot or turned the ball over it would lead to an easy fast break basket too. I understand that turnovers lead to fast breaks usually but not simply missing a shot. The AI would not get back on D in a realistic manner. These are things that I can't really fix manually since I can only control 1 guy at a time, and it's something that wasn't a problem in older games. I have no idea what they did to this series but all I know is they're not getting any of my money ever again until I can make sure its fixed.

Do you get seperate keys for these bundles if you buy as a gift? Only want a couple games from the THQ bundle
Nope.
They only happen when the daily deals change. That happened 6 hours ago. Set your clocks accordingly. Too bad I'm not either waking up or staying up all the way to 6 am (local time) for them.
The Bethesda one was special because it lasted like 4 hours.

IndieGala started their blatant rip-off of Steamgifts
http://www.galagiveaways.com/
As far as I see it works exactly the same.
The funny part though:
Now you have been assigned with a number of Giveaway points ( GWP ) corresponding to the total value in dollars of your Steam games x 100 ,
PLUS 2500 bonus points for the registration.
I'm going to have a lot of points on this site.

For the new page
Yeah, I got one hours ago. This is quite frustrating.

I overslept because I spent all night playing er, i mean studying. But thanks for the info, 6hours from now isn't that early over here.
Sweet, gotta get into it quickly.
What the hell is this verification process though?
6 hours AGO.

No idea. Didn't register yet because the games on offer so far are shit.
EDIT: I guess they only want to verify your email?

I hope for them that they give me my Borderlands 2 keys.
Maybe. There's a button for me to "start" after the words "verification", but it just loads indefinitely.
Also, I got this email:
"Sorry sir, we're still in beta test and we've reached the maximum number of accounts for now.
Why don't you come back later?
"the fuck.

Wow that sucks.
Borderlands 2 4 Pack for Windows is now longer on their site. You can order for the Mac version though.

No it was a pending order, I'd be surprised if they actually removed/refunded existing orders

For some reason all my copies showed up only as gifts, no usual grey box with at least one personally redeemable key that you usually get when buying a 4-pack.
Lol, it said the same to me xD But in the email I had the other thing.

Yeah, not too worried about that. Just wanted to be sure.

I think we need to buy GamersGate a new calculator. With this pace they'll go bankrupt before we even get a chance to see our keys.
I clicked "Start", which resulted in the button being greyed out and a little image appearing that presumably indicates the process is ongoing, but then... nothing. Eventually, said image disappeared and the button returned to its former state.
I think so. I found it do be decidedly average rather than outright bad.
