I'm very humbled that some of you are willing to chip in and gift the game to me, but please, there is no need. I'm not hurting financially so I could buy the game if I wanted. Thank you all so much for the kind thought, but hold on to your money.

And let's not dogpile on Endruen. I'm not mad at him.

My dream in life is that h3h3 does a video based on Steamgaf shenanigans.

We are can become a bigger meme than "ETHAN BRADBERRY"

I'm sure of it.

I really hate April Fools Day. Fortunately it's also the day we finished a big project at work which got me a bonus. With those two things in mind I figured I'd spread some GAF cheer with some of my favorite games. This is the first time I've used ModBot with gift keys, so let me know if it doesn't work for some reason. Good luck everyone!

***The code that indicates Indigo Prophecy is actually for Hyper Light Drifter. No idea why it came back with a different name. I don't know if changing the text will break modbot so I figured I'd mention it here***

Endruen just shot themselves in the foot.

I don’t know how much the rest of you know about SteamGAF culture (I’m an expert), but honour and shame are huge parts of it. It’s not like it is in AnimeGAF where you can become successful by being an asshole. If you screw someone over in SteamGAF, you bring shame to yourself, and the only way to get rid of that shame is repentance.

What this means is the SteamGAF public, after hearing about this, is not going to want to quote Endruen's posts, nor will they enter any of Endruen’s other giveaways. This is HUGE. You can laugh all you want, but Endruen has alienated an entire thread with this move.

Endruen, publicly apologize and give Dark Souls 3 away or you can kiss your giveaways goodbye.

lol Endruen, how did you not realize that prank would be in poor taste? You should be like me and do it anonymously.
;D

I don't believe either of you... but it's not like I'm not going to enter.

If I win 3 fake raffles in 1 day, do I get a tag?

I thought about it, but I also thought it would be VERY suspicious.

I'm really expecting a tag after all this XD

You said you haven't played the original Dark Souls, didn't you? I think I'm going to gift it to you someday.
I've send you a friend request through Steam (or at least I think it's you, there are a ton of Luaps out there o_O)

Whats the question?

This is my first sub (Got April's). Which I used a coupon and first time for a total of like 10.80. Now I don't know if it used the coupon for buying a bundle on the monthly because this month it saying pay 10.80 again to unlock Mad Max. How do I tell if it used the coupon for last months?

Also..paying early for it is no different then subbing later for may right?

you get a discount on your first month so your coupon wasn't used.. the next time you pay for the monthly the coupon will be used.. that's why it's saying 10.80 to unlock mad max/the next bundle

also you may have more than one coupon since they've been given ouyt regularly in the dollar tier of the main bundle... which, if you sub to the monthly, you might as well grab since a dollar will save you a dollar twenty

You can look at your last purchases to check what you paid for them. You can also go to the Coupons section to see if you have any coupon. And no, there's no difference to subbing early or not.

For you.
ok, so let's do this. I can easily get the game for 40$ from Canada, so:

15$ from Endruen
5$ from Rhaknar
5$ from me
5$ Nyteshade

I can cover the rest of the cost but if anyone else wants to contribute let me know.

God damn there is a coupon tab. I never looked that far right LOL!

Yea the coupon wasn't used.

Also I need a movie player for windows 10, don't want to use VLC. Any suggestions?
 
I'm at work and I just logged in to check GAF really quick... OMG, I can't believe I won!

My heart started racing as soon as I saw the 1 unread message notification. I'm so stoked!
Congra...
For those of you wondering:

I have no idea how I didn't see that coming. And I had just gotten done bragging to a coworker about winning DS3 in a raffle too... lol.

But I still won a raffle out of 157 people. So I got that going for me, which is nice.
Played us all like a fiddle. I ain't even mad.
Veggies didn't win. Meh. Screw you guys.
I live to see another day (thanks to Uzzy)

:thumbsup:
The phone number I had connected with Humble is now defunct. I can't log in. Crap.
Did you manage to log in? Should be a way to reset I think.
A lot does remind me of FC3 all that time. Good to see I'm not the only one.
it looks like modbot is still running but i just can't personally connect to it, so i guess yay the robot is smart and adapted and survived but booo now i have no way of controlling it??? oh well hope it doesn't murder us

Shit man, it happened to you twice? lol

I know the pain, though. There seems to be some generous gaffers collecting a pool, but if that doesn't happen, check out my inventory. You can have something from there. I've got some good stuff like Hunnie Pop and Build-A-Lot, so it's not all garbage. If you can't see my inventory, send me a PM.

For real, please don't. I will actually feel guilty if you guys do it. Like I said, I've already received some very generous gifts/giveaways from GAF. If I'm going to receive anything more I want to win it fair and square in a raffle.

No, just the one (so far). I entered both of the raffles of the people I quoted though, so there's a chance of me winning 3 today.

The Steam equivalent of the drunk friend who keeps offering to pay your tab all night.

You DID win it fair and square in a raffle. Whats your paypal Bernardo?

I know everyone in this thread is upset right now but I have some good news.

The Not Enough Whiskey song by Kiefer Sutherland is now available on Spotify.

You should know by now that tag fishing doesn't work.

I haven't been so long in GAF to know about it, if I'm sincere. At the beggining I thought it was something you could do by yourself. What a shame, I wanted to write a reference from the Pokémon 2 movie with some Nyan-cat mixed in :(

Ah, okay. But still, go ahead and choose something. They're all cheap stuff (like $10 at most), so no need to be shy/guilty. They're gonna stay in my inventory until the end of time otherwise.
