    Right, it appears that the nice chaps over at Simply have X-Com on sale. £12.99, which I think is something in the area of $20. Still not quite cheap enough to make me switch from XP to Windows 7 to play it (!), but I'm guessing someone here will want a copy...

    http://www.simplygames.com/info/19729/XCOM-Enemy-Unknown-CD-KEY-Download-PC

    Tempting.

    Do you guys believe it'll be cheaper than that during the Winter Sale?

    Gamefly had it for $25 ($20 with code) recently. I doubt it would get much cheaper during the sales, but I'm still holding out just in case.

    So I was going to donate through Child's Play, but then when I checked the map for the hospital near me, I saw this:

    Busy day so I haven't been around the comp much, but one more contest ended. Congrats to @Drovek for winning Sonic Generations, a classic tale of a Hedgehog with its origins in the Jewish faith. One final day in the Hanukkah giveaway, folks!
    I'm going to be traveling too much to get in on the winter sale madness this year, so instead I'm throwing down an 8 day Hanukkah giveaway. In honor of this sacred time, I've rewritten the Hanerot Halalu in a way that my girlfriend and her Jewish family would undoubtedly frown upon:

    We play these games for the miracles and the wonders, for the redemption and the battles that you made for our monochrome ancestors, in those days at this season, through your holy sales. During all eight days of Steam-Hanukkah these games are sacred, and we are not permitted to make ordinary use of them except for to gift them in order to express thanks and praise to Your great Name for Your miracles, Your amazing values and Your tremendous discounts.

    I can't make enough giveaways for everything just now, so I can only cover the first three days and I'll put the remaining few up as the previous ones end. I'll go ahead and open up the current listings for entries, but they'll expire a day at a time. And because this is a community thing, if you're not at least a moderately active forum poster I reserve the right to re-raffle the gifts, in the spirit of the holidays. That said, Happy Hanukkah, and lets do this:

    Also, went ahead and got my donation in, decided to double up, so it's $20 now instead of $10 for you tally folk out there. Proof in spoiler:

    God damnit, man. Just..damn.

    Which reminds me..4 days till the sale! I'm so fucking excited.
    While I do own quite a lot of games by now (largely thanks to you guys) I'm actually not broke this time, for a change.

    This thread has become a singularity, combining the infinite possibilities of the Internet with the generosity and goodwill that come with the holidays.

    It is, briefly and in conclusion, the true miracle of Christmas.

    In order to get the url for this SteamGifts giveaway, write something Noir-ish and PM it to me.

    Here's an example:

    I'm not sure how many entries I'll be allowing into the contest, but I'm also not sure how many people don't own this already.

    I'll announce it if I'm not taking any more.


    Is everybody in this thing who wants to be in this thing?

    Funnily enough, not THAT hard to do in the base game.

    Literally impossible to do in the expansion. (Do not play the expansion, it is so much worse than the base game)

    we need to tally the amount donated already so we know how far off we are.

    I've tried to keep the spreadsheet updated, but I haven't had time to mark off received donations yet (and I think I may have missed a couple of pledges).

    If anyone can go through and make a note beside each confirmed donation, that would be great. And if you see a pledge missing, feel free to add it in:

    i think it would be interesting to see how much was initially pledged verses how much is given considering several people already donated more than they pledged

    I couldn't really keep track of it all, so I've just updated to "pledged" amounts to whatever each person actually donated once I see a confirmation. Also, someone has kindly helped me fill in pretty much all the confirmations. We're looking good so far! Looks to be about half received so far.

    And for the record, according to my spreadsheet, we're at $2818 pledged, although I think I'm still missing one or two pledges. If anyone sees one missing, please add it in.
