My preference would be that it sticks in the Christmas one. There's no need for us to have a master list of everything when we can just link to the Wiki (or any page Valve puts up with a list), and general game strategy is totally welcome in the sale thread (honestly I'd prefer it to memetic no-content forum fads that happen). I'm not in contact with any of the other moderators today so if they have different feelings than me, they can feel free to subdivide things how they'd like. :)

I think general stuff will stay there, and if there are bigger Gaf competitions with Gaf gifts, they'll get single threads.
Will also be hard to separate.

That's grand. I was afraid I was going fill up the sale thread with "ugh! why isn't this Revenge of the Titans achievement unlocking?" and things of the sort.

Wait, the sales are 14 days? I recall them being only 10-11 days long.

i recall when they have started from thanks giving up till new year. that was freaking horrific for my wallet.

luckily i've got many games already, so i'll probably receive only minimal damage this year
 
Too bad you're all wasting your time. When 1 PM hits, Steam will just show a nude picture of Gabe in a bathtub full of money with the caption "all railworks dlc 15% off"

Off for my lunch break and I won't be back until after the festivities start. See you on the other side! Hopefully we all survive.

RE: The question earlier, is Mafia II not Steamworks? I bought the retail disc for $0.99 and it immediately had me input my code into Steam when I put the disc in.

Let me show you through these halls, my friend, where treasures of indie gaming await...
It'll probably go up when the sale is live. No use cluttering the first few pages with a load of "OMG cant wait! My wallet is ready" type posts.

...really? We'll get those posts anyway. "OMG couldnt wait! My wallet wasnt ready!" or your version for every single new day of the sales. It will be a 2 part OT anyway :)

Well, yeah, I guess. As Stump put it, those "memetic no-content" type posts are completely pointless and personally I would like to see them kept to a minimum.

iD pack should be seriously considered by all who don't have those games, especially since it includes RAGE now.

Great value.

Have almost everything in the Mega Bundle from other indie bundles. Only ones I want are Rochard and Avadon, guess I'll grab them individually.

listen to the mad man
MRORANGE feel free to post the thread now, and let me know if you're taking more than one post so I can zap any numbskulls who make quick "LOL FIRST CAN'T WAIT" replies.
 
Everyone bow your heads and let us pray:

Our Gabe at Valve,
hallowed be your name.
Your sale day comes,
our wallets be done,
online as it is in real life.
Give us this day our daily deals,
and forgive us our debt cards,
as we also have forgiven our bank.
And lead us into temptation,
but deliver us from playing.

Amen.

Nice price on Fable TLC, wishlisted and will probably pick it up today, depending on what the daily deals are.

Kalypso make me laugh, it's a good price on the complete pack for sure, but individually, their currency conversion is awful. Just checked Airline Tycoon 2, $29.99 in the US, £29.99 here in the UK.
