Btw, Dark Souls is GOTG.

I am starting to lean towards this as well. Everything about Dark Souls is just 10/10. Such a good game. Worth every penny.

Random question, but when the sale is over, do the Snowglobe cards completely disappear from people's inventory, or you just can't get them anymore through buying games but can still be traded? (Like ever other sale)

 

[Nemesis121]

So how's Natural Selection 2? with time running out and i have to go shovel all that fucking Snow, i am thinking about getting that and leaving it to DL, i will get Valdis another time...

 

[kurahador]

Surprised cards prices haven't hit bottom yet.

Capitalism ho!

 

[a secret-boss]

didn't buy anything this winter sale.
sorry Gabe no win for u

They will expire which means they will disappear.

 

[Wanace]

Yay! AOE2 came back. So upset I missed it earlier.

 

[Deputy Dangle]

4 hours later and I still can't access the market.

re:mod giveaways. do you include the game title or just the code by itself?

(hoping me not winning a single raffle is not due to epic amounts of bad luck)

copy and paste the entire line

The title needs to be included.

I always find the end of the sale depressing.

 

[kottila]

The title needs to be included.

that's what I was doing, guess I'm just unlucky then

 

[derExperte]

The title needs to be included.

I never do that and won stuff. Just the MB-.... thing.

 

[Danielsan]

3 hours to go. Come on. Crash card market, crash! There's still around 750.000 snow globe cards on the market place. Would be a pitty, though kind of hilarious, for them all to just vanish into thin air when the timer hits zero.

 

[Prophane33]

RPG? NBA2K13? You serious?

Hey, it has Kings, Wizards, and Magic.

I use Steam Tool to move my games between my SSD and HDD. Just move the game you are playing at the time to your SSD.

 

[xBladeM6x]

Damn, that sucks. Only needed card #2 and #4, but don't have the ability to add anything to my Steam Wallet at the moment. Normally I wouldn't give even the slightest shit about these, but for some reason I want them. (Damn you latent Pokemon Card collector in me)

 

[tylergregg]

I have snow globes 6, 7, and 8, and can't sell stuff on the market currently. Come take these dumb things: http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198049215346

You have 3 hours to obtain and sell other cards.

Use SteamMover, or if you have the beta version of Steam you can set up different installation directories. So you can have a couple of games on the SSD, when you are done with it you can move it to your HDD. I keep a handful of my most played and newest games on my SSD and the rest on HDDs.

EDIT: or Steam Tool like DeathCubeK said. Didn't see that post.

Not sure if I should get Age of Empires Legacy Bundle or save the money for Amazon's EC games.

kind of like the sale did? I think that is what we should expect

 

[JBourne]

I didn't win a single thing from ModBot this sale. Some people won a dozen different games. Shenanigans.

I didn't have anything to give this time around, though. I think I'd feel bad if I won something and didn't pay it forward.

EDIT: Wait, found some unused keys on my Humble account. Giveaway incoming! Nothing too special, though.

 

[goldsoundz]

Is Steam down for anyone else? It won't let me connect.

 

[Fersis]

Steam is getting DDoS along some other games.

 

[Nemesis121]

I went to purchase NS2 and I am getting errors FML, i gave up on Valdis, now my secondary game i can't purchase it, FML

Just read that Chivalry Deadliest Warrior has no team objective mode. Well, not getting that! I'm tired of boring old team deathmatch. Oh well.

 

[xBladeM6x]

Forgot I could sell. Thanks, that did the trick.

 

[garath]

I won't be surprised if the card prices don't budge. For as many people trying to unload them, there's just as many trying to get cheap cards to build the badges. It's probably going to stay exactly where it is until the end and all those cards will disappear.

 

[Avinexus]

I'm surprised DayZ stayed at the top of the list during the entire sale.

 

[BY2K]

Is it just me or is the store down since last night?

I keep getting 101 Errors.

Yeah, crazy. And all of the people saying that Rocket had missed his chance and the hype had died down.

Nope, not just you. A lot of people are having problems. Fine my end though

 

[Benedict]

258 xp points to Level 55.
If you'd like to get rid of cards, I am willing to take care of any cards you don't need so I can reach level 55 and get my winter-badge to lvl 5.

HDD. Only have one or two that you play a lot on SSD. Got to keep the SSD clean bro!

Guys I still need card 3 and 4, have 2 and 10 to trade. Send me PM.

You could sell 2 & 10 and get 3 & 4 with the money. It's basically what I just did.

i'm using beta.. but how does that multi installation directories thingum work?

hmm my SSD is my OS drive
so my Steam games should primarily be on my HDD right, and use SteamMover/Tool whenever necessary to move them to the SSD?

What a coincidence, I only play Finnish games.

Eldritch postmortem up from the developer's blog
http://www.dphrygian.com/wordpress/?p=104

Shortly after this, I wrote that Eldritch had sold 12,000 units at an average price of $12, and I thought that was the end of the story.

During Steam’s Holiday Sale, Eldritch was offered at an 80% discount ($3) in an overnight Steam flash sale (2 a.m. – 10 a.m. PST). I knew it was coming, but I had virtually no expectations for it. It looked like a poor timeslot, and I didn’t realize just how important front page visibility is during a Steam sale. [...] Eldritch had literally doubled its units sold overnight! Even at such a low price, the revenue from the flash sale exceeded the total revenue of the Autumn Sale and the rest of the Holiday Sale combined.

In its first three months on sale, Eldritch grossed over $215,000. After subtracting fees, taxes, and Steam and Humble’s shares, it has generated almost $100,000 for our company, or approximately a threefold return on investment.

No seriously do we actually suspect all the Amazon 2013 choice games will be PC versions? please don't be the case.

Weird, I thought I submitted Bastion code, but got Limbo instead. Reminds me of Another World, will give It a try, thank you JBourne =)

Btw, I was waiting for Accoun to trade my globe #1 for his #10, but he is still offline for hours and time is running out. Can someone trade those globes with me?

 

[see5harp]

What a clusterfuck. I don't care is it's a DDOS attack, that's your fucking problem Valve. This is so ghetto.

Not sure about prices crashing but the market itself certainly did for me. :/
