Sounds like a mess up on their side.
I think the site has stopped giving keys out, and someone between marketing and the website coding has different ides as to when "before" Nov 6th actually is.
Hope you guys get sorted.

I want to subscribe but I know that If it has Saint's Row IV it's going to be the censored Australian version over here :/
Not cool with that.

You don't get to buy the pack once it's revealed.
I don't think that is how it works, you sub prior to the reveal, and you get the games, there is no waiting. If you sub after games announced, you are subbing for the December games and 1 of the November games (I believe)
edit - didn't read the posts about people experiencing issues with paypal...just subbed and now I have the same issue :facepalm:
I think you have to cancel it a week before the next bundle is due out, which is the first Friday of every month.

sorry meant to be PM
Similarly for me with Undertale. It's an awkward thing with these indie bundles, when there's so many cheap games around it does make it very easy to wait for a generous deal on the things you really want to play - if I wasn't already drowning in choice of what to play, I'd already have bought it by now.
I do worry about the long-term ramifications of that. Which doesn't specifically pertain to this, except for the fact that it introduces a "Well, I've already paid for some games, so let's hold off and see what they are before making a purchase" factor.
As I mentioned upthread, the way HMB could become really good is by focussing on new titles, premiering in the bundle. At the cost of selling out some initial copies comparatively cheaply, it gives a baseline audience able to offer word of mouth and promotion of the title - and because the bundle's no longer purchasable, new buyers brought in from that promotion might pick it up at the release price.

Oh rock of ages, do not crumble, love is breathing still. Oh lady moon shine down, a little people magic if you will.
Same here. It's been "processing" for a while now, already received the receipt through PayPal though.
Never had any issues with Humble before. Guess there's a first for everything.
I'm going to wait an hour, see if anything changes. If not, it's time to contact customer support.
Sigh. That'll teach me to buy something without reading anything about it on forums first.

Weakened and went for it - got the LoG email virtually straight away.
Or, fool me once, shame on you - Fool me twice, I forgot to cancel my credit card subscription.

so what were the games?
Welp, glad I didn't subscribe. If that's the best they can do (given that the first month is going to be their big hurrah) then no thanks.
I already owned Valkyria Chronicles and Saints Row, but the rest of the package is pretty nice for the price - SanctuaryRPG looks like it might be a lot of fun.
I'll probably stick with the monthlies for now - the quality/quantity to price ratio is surprisingly good so far.
About $80 at current Steam prices, but at least a couple of these games have been discounted during previous Steam sales.

glad I didn't take the plunge then
More than worth it, unless you just own them all already.

About or maybe more than 100$ (Steam rn.)

I mean, Legend of Grim 2 is supposed to be a grand game and both Besieged and Valk are great games so if you aren't like me and buy every game that comes out it seems like an ok deal.

make that into a regular, tiered bundle and you'll get my money
no way I'm paying blind

Now that we know the games, that's absolutely a good deal.

That's exactly what bothers me the most, they only reveal one game of the bundle or was it just for this 1st bundle? I think they won't do even that for next bundles?
There are 2 problems here: You are buying blindly, so you don't know what you are buying. And you can already have all/most of the games. But it's gambling.
