    So what are the chances the sale only goes 10 days? they seem to be featuring a game a day from the 10 card list.

    The store front page says July 11th to July 22nd.

    I'd say odds are pretty high.

    So i picked up wargame airland battles.
    Played a few tutorials last night. my main problem and maybe this is something i can correct, i didnt have much time to play around with the options, is that the movement controls are not like RTS's im use to. it wont let me shift the screen from side to side or top and bottom the only options i have working are to zoom out of an area then zoom back into a specific point of reference. please tell me theres something im missing, cause if im stuck with this method its just annoying as hell.

    Chances = 0
    Since, you know, it says right on the main page "July 11-22". :P

    Ahoy Steam Thread!
    It's contest time!
    If you recall, in the last thread we'd decided my wife had given me permission to go nuts with the sale. But! I have things to do. So I need some help getting motivated. Send me video game related motivational posters. You can make your own, or find one on the internet, but self made ones (or at least ones that I can't easily refind with GIS) will get more weight. They will be judged based on humor, appropriateness of the image to the text, aforementioned uniqueness, and how much get-up-and-go they impart.

    Prizes!
    The winner will receive $15 worth of Steam stuff of their choice.
    2nd place will get $10
    3rd place will get $5.
    1 game, 4 games. Whatever you want under that threshold, with a little wiggle-room for things with odd prices adding up to just a touch more.
    PM me your submissions. Deadline is 7/17/2013 9:00 AM CDT

    @Khez - I believe you need to be cut off.

    When I said "I think I'll buy Killing Floor during lunch" did you put it into some English to Steam Google Translator and have it return "Please have me killing floors by lunch"? Because I am now the owner of floors upon floors of killing.

    Thanks for the generosity but good lord it's embarrassing in a sale where the budget (and wife) doesn't allow a lot of return fire!

    Just trying to warm up its early in the morning ya know?

    The tenth game starts its sale 7/20, so it ends 7/21 - I'm guessing the last day from noon EST 7/21 to 7/22 will be some form of "best of" sale.

    In fact, there are ten games on sale every day so I'd guess it's a given last day is the 10 card games.

    I mean, we know when the sale ends. I'd say it was about 10 days, yeah.

    Just once though? Hm. Well, hell, I might still sign up for that.

    Though I think we might already be friends (at work, can't check). If we are, do I have to un-friend you and sign up again? Is this a limited-time offer? I have to know.

    If people are crafty they may be able to sneak an extra one in. I don't usually monitor these things.
    It is an ongoing offer for all friends past, present, and future.
    Anyone with a beard can upgrade their beard rub to a brustle, and we shall do manly beard battle with our face shrubberies.
    The end.

    I have a good 8 inches on my beard at the moment. The (hairy) gauntlet has been thrown down.

    I am never fucking around with any of you in a gifting war. That seems like a safe conclusion.

    Didn't you fuck up buying a game for yourself? How could we trust you in a war?

    Why wouldn't we destroy you if we wanted to?

    Last night I was shopping on my phone but hadn't put anything in my cart. We went out for ice cream and when I came home I grabbed my phone out of my pocket to find it was on the confirm purchase page - the absolute last page before a sale is finalized. Somehow I was one step away from butt-buying a 4 pack of Castle Crashers.

    Alright, people. The correct community vote is SKYRIM.

    Why? 'Cause it's just so awesome. It's, like, the best game you'll ever play . . . and the dragons . . . vikings . . . uh . . . .

    Okay. Look, here's the deal: I fucked up on the first day and totally missed the daily on the Dragonborn DLC.

    So a vote for Skyrim is a vote to help me save four bucks or so.

    Four dollars. During Dale time, that's like . . . lemme see here . . . eighty-seven dollars!

    VOTE SKYRIM!

    I got nothing against skyrim, i just think by now its been on the steam sale before, everyone who wants to play it has already. Im going with Bioshock because i want more people to see the awesome.

    Same reason i voted System Shock 2.

    I voted Skyrim this time (I haven't played it). But honestly, all three are pretty tempting...I'm betting it will be a close vote.

    I voted Tomb Raider. Because it's so fucking good ... and I want to gift out like 52 copies of it.
    I actually can't because I'm currently already like $150 over budget this sale, but I want to! And the temptation will be there. But since I voted for it, it's guaranteed not to win. Thus my devastated wallet will remain safe. Logic ftw.

    I believe I've fully explained my position on this controversial topic.

    In summary: Four dollars.

    Thank you all for your time.

    So I drink out of 12 oz "kids" camelbaks because I'm clumsy as fuck and I like my electronics. I currently have 2 (because I lost the one with robots on it), a frog bottle and one with purple and pink bears wearing tutus. My husband is going to work in a different office today and asked if he could take one of my bottles - he opted for bears wearing tutus. I think I'll bake him cookies today because I have an awesome husband.

    I hear you. I just picked up TR the other day (based on recommendations like yours) and can't wait to try it.

    All the current candidates are good.

    But only one will allow me to travel to a magical island of mushrooms and save me four dollars.

    So we were planning on taking our son and occasional live-in niece to a local theme park/water park on Friday as a treat. However, it's looking like another stupidly hot day to wait in lines for rides, so we may delay it until Sunday. However, this decision was made after I already took the day off work. So...home all day...during Summer Sale...with a bunch of new stuff to play...life is good.
