Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it, follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!

Yes. 8 times, I believe.
This time I loaded up a few hundred in my Steam Wallet and have been using that to gift and buy.
Ironically, I traded in some games at GameStop to get an extra Steam Wallet card, and I owed a couple bucks above the trade value, so when I paid for that with my credit card, I got a fraud prevention call 2 minutes later.
Don't these people know that I spend absurd amounts of money on video games?
I think VISA basically just said fuck all with fraud protection on me after the $5,000 lube fiasco.
You know you can't say something like this and not follow up.
Basically we had access to a massive hill that was next to a lake a buddy owns a house on, he runs some pretty great summer parties and people end up showing up as he's near a park. Basically we spent a ton of time clearing trees and brush and digging a chute all the way down and lined it with tarps to make a giant slip-n-slide. We figured out water didn't cut it if we pumped it up from the lake so we ordered a summers worth of lube.
575 gallons of lube to be exact, kept the chute slippery to the extent that people would hit the little ramp on the bottom and skip across the water.
Bunch of people kicked in on the order and I made it because I'm the only person who can take freight deliveries. We ended up not using one drum of it so everyone took home a bunch for....personal entertainment.
I made the order and visa flagged it and called me to verify the order not once but twice because they couldn't believe it apparently. First answer I gave them what it was for because they couldn't believe it was quite sarcastic and the second time because I was pissed that I had to jump through the hoops again I told them it was for gathering samples in artificial insemination on elephants. That lady the second time didn't have much of a sense of humor when I told her there would be a number of orders for umbrellas and hip waders occurring shortly as well.
Some people I tell ya.

You say that now...
there's a 55 gallon drum on amazon for $1.3k. 10x that would be north of 10 large
You might have to grease a few palms to get wholesale pricing.
You just need to slip a bill into the right hands.
Nah. Just ask for a manager and talk them down. Squeaky wheel gets the grease, and all that.
So you can just slide your price right into the discussion?
That is also retail.
Correct, though I ended up going through a buddy who still works in the acquisition world.
