There you go. I can't post links yet so I hope this works.

Not that I would know, of course.

Same here!
I knew NBA2K12 was heavily modded (see UBR Roster Mod, for starters), but what's going on NBA2K13 for mods?

EDIT:

Thanks!

Any deals flipping over right about now that I should be looking out for? First post is a mess. :(
Perhaps time for a new thread for these deals, with over 9000 replies.

Hey Tony, are there going to be any Activision or Waner Bros games on EC list? I'm mad I missed Scribblenauts Unlimited and Prototype Pack on the cheap. Would like to see the The Storming, Burning, Reflecting, Flaming, Sabotaging Pack on again if you can.

What's wrong with the first post? It has promos listed by date with links.

Cheers,
Tony

I've seen people whine they have a 26 character super complex password. "I can never be hacked!!!" then you ask them is that password reused? And they go "yeah so what?"

I love xkcd! And I have a variety of passwords. Anything without my financial info gets a throw away password. Everyone else gets one of several different passwords. FYI, 26 characters or 9 it doesn't matter. After, I think, it's 8 Alpha-numeric characters it becomes almost mathmatically impossible to hack it by random integers.

Yes, but I guess I'm just giving you a hard time, since it doesn't seem to be totally organized.
Still has The Secret World on there, and multiple formatting.
I guess it just screws with my Pseudo-OCD or something.

Just keep doing what you're doing and being awesome, Tony. You make me happy.

Tony, Is there any chance that CK2 will go on a larger deal during January? I know it's already half off, but at $15, I kinda think it would be a better deal to wait for the paradox packs to roll around again in a few months

Every account I have that has direct access to my money has it's own password. Then I have maybe 6-7 passwords I reuse, with one default one (with 2 variatlons), and two for less trustworthy sites.

Up until a few years ago, I probably only used 4 total. I think part of the reason I changed it was cause of xkcd.

Edit: Scratch that. I just remembered a few more that I use, such as one for Steam. So in total, I have 20+ different active passwords.

Edit 2: Also, one thing I didn't know was that some IM programs (like AIM and Pidgin) stores passwords in plain text, if you choose to store passwords. So I make sure I have to manually type it in every time.

I try to have different randomly generated 20+ key passwords for nearly every site. And I use a password manager stored on a separate HDD (That has another giant password just to gain access to the database)to keep track of them all personally.

I think it's stupid that we have to go to such inane lengths to protect ourselves but what can you do. If people weren't assholes or amoral ,life would be easier on teh interweb.

I'm still going through the thread to see if I find an answer but I wanted to ask if anyone else has gotten a Spec ops the line (ROW) confirmation when redeeming Spec ops the line?

(row)?

I'm assuming it stands for Rest Of the World

Oh, so you are wondering if the key they give you is exclusive for NA or something?

I was wondering if that was normal or If I needed to get it change it for a NA version

Where'd you buy it from? It's probably normal, some of the stuff I buy directly from Steam activates as ROW, just means that it's not region restricted. It activated as Spec Ops The Line Retail for me, and I got my key from Amazon. They may have given you a key from a different batch or something. I wouldn't ask for a refund though, seems normal.

I use http://lastpass.com as it integrates with all browsers, does mobile and also it's security check will show you all your duplicate passwords and where you use them. The Premium version - which allows mobile - costs just $1/month. All I have to remember is my initial password (which is my case is a sentence).

I got it from Amazon with the desert to sea bundle on December 26 but I redeemed it today because I just got back from vacation yesterday.

It's fine -- I've gotten 'Rest of the World' games, too, from Amazon.
