    how's Toki Tori? Good enough for 1.24 and wasting some time on a ticket?

    It's a cute puzzle game. Figure out how to get a little chick around the level without getting stuck or running into hazards. Usually you'll have all the time you need to complete a puzzle, but a few have timing elements. I like listening to the music and figuring things out.

    Thanks, sounds good enough to me :)

    For those who asked, redeeming your tickets for one of the prizes does not remove them from the grand-prize drawing.

    Recettear, I'm told!

    Tell you what: if I'm gifted either Borderlands or Witcher 2 (goddamn, wouldn't that be something), I'll personally gift you Recettear.

    So out of curiosity, can you gift something that was gifted to you?

    Would be handy just in case one received duplicate gifts of the same game.

    So this'll get lost in the flurry of SALE TALK but I just finished Bioshock 2 and OHMYGOD WHAT THE FUCK. They managed to completely blow the first game out the park with that ending. It was all mushy and tugging at the heart strings. Awwwww. If it goes on sale, I can''t rec it enough. I'm seriously impressed.

    Lead and gold and killing floor are both games I'm interested in... but other's should really get priority as PA has already been kind and gifted to me today.

    EDIT: and damn it, that recettear review was awesome. I'm going to race home tomorrow after cashing my check to try to get it before the change in sales

    OK guys I have a problem. I bought Recettear in an indie pack so a mere few cents went to to people that invented the phrases "Capitalism Ho!" and "Yayifications". Someone should explain to me how I can fix that problem using the above phrases.

    You can gift capitalism ho to your more communist leaning PA comrades.

    Or own it on multiple steam accounts for multiple tiers of yayification?

    In summation: for the motherland

    Gift it to everyone you know so they can say "Yayifications" and you can give Carpe Fulgar more money so they can shout "Capitalism ho!"
