    I just realized I got the Borderlands 2 badge, and I don't even own it.

    I may have a card problem...

    Ah and here I thought it was one of those things where you had to find the source image and do a difference calculation thingy on it

    Thought I'd take a look at the update sale during my lunch hour. "Oh good! Primal Carnage is on sale! Dinosaurs! Looks awesome!"

    And then I see that UT2004 is not only on sale, but it has cards.

    UT shaped my developing gaming years. I can't *not* have the badge for it.

    Send help.

    i would love it if there was a massive resurgence of UT2K4 or UT:GOTY

    love love love it.

    I was surprised to discover that there's still a few premium servers running, with players even!

    "You have spent approximately $282.85 USD in the store since the sale began."

    Granted, some of that was preloaded from before the sale began. Still, I can't tell if I'm winning Steam or losing Steam. Maybe both.

    Oh boy, here I am posting about how I'm gonna lay low, and @Edgler Vess reads that and decides to show that the classy he has never lays low, so he up and sends me Trine 2 Complete! Wanted it, now have it, cause of the classiness.


    edit: oh boy I am tired and linking that name was not being nice to me. I blame the class.

    Goddammit, how does one organise a gift bombing to annihilate one's enemy?

    @Spoit has given me... I don't know, 10 gifts in the past week or two? My wallet can't repel class of this magnitude!

    Who will save me? @Jesus? @Buddha? @Big Classy?

    Somebody, deploy your weapons of mass wishlist destruction!

    I wasn't really sure if I wanted to buy Castle Crashers. @Fyrewulff fixed it by gifting it to me.

    I haven't spent a dime on the this sale.

    It's...a cruel time to be broke.

    I'm at $8.46

    Which is 100% from selling cards.

    Needless to say, I'm a fan of steam trading cards. And selling them for free money.

    Well if I needed a sign that I'm not addicted to the spending of money, I just made a huge student loan payment today after realizing that if I had refinanced like, a year or two ago, I could have cut my interest rates in half...

    I sound so girly, but retail Steam therapy sounds so good right about now. Also chocolate. >_>

    What beloved indie title should I blow this ~9 dollars in my Steam Wallet on? I'm afraid to add more cause I've been hearing people who add money to their wallet getting locked out of the Marketplace for a week or so. Oh, also the being poor thing.

    Special thanks to @staplerofpaper for the giftbomb of Tripletown, I played some of it on my cell phone, but never got very far because I just had the free version, I shall dodge ninja bears in your honor.

    Ah, the smell of a new thread!

    With three days to go until I can access the Community market again, how would I best go about trading cards with you classy gents?

    Steam should sell an option, for like 50 cents you can bundle multiple games into a 'giftbomb' that they have to open to see whats inside.

    So the option to pay double for "SURPRISE ITS BAD RATS!"

    ...I'd be ok with that.

    When idling for cards do you need to even start a game? Can you just sit at the title screen?

    @Spoit was kind enough to help me extend my budget for the Summer Sale by gifting me Thomas was Alone. Many thanks.

    Yes. And if it has that config prompt pop up you can wait there too. All you have to do is make sure your name says "playing: whatevergame" and you're good.

    Title screen or launcher will suffice.

    Okay, I finished the Swapper. Apparently all 10 achievements are tied up in SUPER SECRET HIDDEN STUFF, and once you beat the game you can't go back to right before the end of the game, so you'd need to restart to find these things. Who does that these days? :(

    Game was fun; though several of the puzzles felt like I manged to finagle things just so, so I'm not sure if that was intended or if I found a different solution.

    @Spoit teleported into my Steam Library and assassinated me with a copy of Dishonored.

    The burden of class is truly heavier than honor.

    Okay, instead of just idling, I went ahead and played Organ Trail.

    That's a fun little game!

    Guys I'm late on this but go buy Primal Carnage for $5. It is still a flash sale and it is hilariously good fun. Left 4 dead minus zombies add dinosaurs and 40 person multiplayer. Do it. Also it has cards oh my god I'm so excited.

    but are they just far better players and way dedicated to the game?

    that could be a turn off.

    I often wonder if I can get cards doing that gag that people do sometimes, where they make it say they are playing Half Life 3, or NotePad, or something silly.

    Ahahaha... and people will potentially pay me money to do this.

    What have we become?

    I started Tripletown right after my last post...I think I blacked out for the 30 minutes I was playing, so much better than the phone version, and similar to drinking a fifth of whiskey in 20 minutes, without the throwing up.

    Edit: Tripletown has cards? My life is over.
