    I'm locked out of steam market until 26th.... if I miss a sale on saints row complete...... ugh.

    Guess I'm glad I bought enough cards to make one each day until end of sale? Well I was going to sit out, but now I'm really sitting out.

    Oh, and I skiped like 50 pages. No time, back in school and all ready ugh.

    Can't you still buy things from the steam store if you are locked out of the market?

    How does one get locked out of the market?

    I think adding a new credit card automatically locks you out for a couple days.

    If I remember correctly, yesterday that bundle with BattleBlock Theater and Castle Crashers was hilariously overpriced. It showed both games individually priced at $3.75 and showed the bundle priced at something like $15.

    I think Steam just has weird issues with bundle pricing sometimes.

    maybe it was like that at first, but it was fixed quickly, I bought the bundle for like $6.XX last night

    that was when it was 75% off, but Castle Crashers was a part of the community choice that won, making Castle Crashers 90% off, which apparently affects bundles it's in, making the BT + CC bundle 90% off also

    @CroakerBC‌ sends me this code, for reasons... to which I discover his reasons are to further my studies under the tutelage of Tesla(grad)! Thanks jerk.

    @CroakerBC snuck a code in my PM inbox as well. Sword of the Stars: The Pit. And even the fancy gold edition of it. Seems like a rather fun roguelike. Thank you. <3

    The bundle was around 6.24 IIRC. I was going to buy it until I saw Castle Crashers might win the flash sale and waited.

    I can't seem to make trade offers from here, but I seem to have enough cards for two summer badges.

    I need a #5 to do anything (plus one for the second set), and only one of #2 and #7.
    I have trips of 4, 8, 9 and 10.

    If anyone is up for trading, please send me an offer.

    Dang, the new CoH2 expansion released but not on sale. Why would they release in the middle of a steam sale!? Steam tells people specifically not too!

    And the new factions look great.

    EDIT: PSA: they added game browsing for custom games. Finally, no automatch-only comp stomps! And if you join a match using a map you don't have (a community made one) it'll download it right there.

    Have to admit, they did a good job improving it.

    I would grab it if you're planning selling your 360, otherwise eh, it's prettier but the same game experience really.

    While I've been trying to get out there and make new Steam thread friends all week, I added @Elin in particular to my friend list the other day after she shared the story of her serendipitous reunion with her dog. I have to admit, anything having to do with animal rescue is a gigantic weakness of mine, so I also have to admit that such a story made her a prime gift target for me. Instead, while I've been biding time, I've been hit with a copy of Dark Souls! The classic friend request turnabout!

    Full disclosure, Steam thread: I expend a lot of willpower lately just on keeping it together emotionally while going through some temporary tough times. I might be a little bit fragile lately. Distractions, such as video games, are super effective at helping with that. Even the thread itself, just watching and participating in the excitement is a lot of fun for me and has been something to look forward to every day. Like I mentioned, the reason I added Elin was because she shared a little bit about what was going on in her life, and it made me want to reach out and brighten her day. Lost a job, but saved a dog? You deserve a thing! Full disclosure again: What just happened when she sent me a gift, having this person instead be the one to give me a thing, out of the blue, literally brought tears to my eyes. I don't even know what to think about that, but it happened. Is happening. The generosity and thoughtfulness in this group is just ridiculous, and it means so much more than just the dollar value of the gifts flying around. Thanks everybody.

    So the other day (yesterday? Saturday?) there was a game on sale that had a description that made me think it might be sort of like The Lost Vikings and that a friend of mine would like it. I cannot remember the name for the life of me. Does anybody know what I'm talking about? Could it be the Swapper? That doesn't seem right...
