    I'm not bothering with bidding on anything. If I sell all my items for 1c then it's still a tiny amount of funding for my Steam wallet.

    I'll keep my gems til the end of the auction, when the winning bids should be much much lower. Worse case scenario (if I don't think I can actually win an auction), is to sell the gems on the market or make booster packs and sell those instead - whatever gives most moolah.

    Account is in partial lockdown since I got a new pc. I cant buy anything on the marketplace but can still buy games using my attached CC and Paypal accounts.

    Not sure who is being protected with the 7 day lockdown........

    Is it that "we see you're logging in from a new computer" crap? They give you that nonsense even when you've only cleaned out your cookies. And yeah, they don't mind you being a potential fraudster so long as you buy something from the store!

    Personally, I really enjoy it and it's one of the few games that I've always got installed on my computer. I find it to be one of those games you sit down with for a few minutes and then realise hours have passed.

    That happened with Black and White. I sat down on the PC a little after waking up and a few minutes later my stomach was like SQEEEEUUUUUURCCHHHGRGRLGRGLRLRGLRLL and I was like damn I'm hungry I should eat some brunch. What? I was playing for 9 hours?

    I loved Black and White, it had some flaws but it was pretty groundbreaking and unique in a lot of respects. Its on of those games i would love to see an attempt at updating it.

    Have been toying with the idea of massive PC upgrades, and for the first time ever not cut on price and get high end parts....must...stay....strong


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 20,944 ✭✭✭✭Links234


    my wallet is not prepared! :eek:

    I don't really anticipate buying much, but still... I like to have the option. kinda hope I can grab Mark of the Ninja, and have been eyeballing Wolfenstein but may leave that till the summer sale if I can.

    It so easy to upgrade these days....
    You can buy parts now and others later.
    A shiny new GPU is exactly what you need, look at the GTX980. you probably wouldn't even need to upgrade your PSU....

    You should do it.
