5:54 - Madjoki: lol someone figured way to get free $1 humble bundles

5:54 - Wagglesworth: where?

5:56 - Wagglesworth: huh. Could't this theoretically work with any Humble, now?
5:56 - Madjoki: yeah
5:56 - Wagglesworth: awesome
5:57 - Madjoki: tried with weekly
5:57 - Madjoki: worked
5:57 - Wagglesworth: Dunno how coinbase works, but think I could use the gmail trick of adding a period?
5:58 - Wagglesworth: I'm just gonna do it and find out
5:59 - Wagglesworth: Guess I'll have to make a bunch of new facebook accounts.
6:05 - Wagglesworth: Cool, I got the weekly, too. We'll see if the same trick works tomorrow on the new weekly.
6:07 - Madjoki: hopefully
6:08 - Wagglesworth: Yeah, this could be a great exploit. Unless, of course, Humble gets wise to multiple Bitcoin accounts being used on a single Humble account.
6:08 - Madjoki: gifts?
6:10 - Wagglesworth: I suppose that'd work. Can different payment methods be used on a single order? I assumed I'd use this to lock in a $1 and pay the rest of a bta with Paypal or something.
6:10 - Madjoki: yes
6:10 - Madjoki: have done it
6:10 - Wagglesworth: Can you upgrade gifts, too?
6:10 - Madjoki: no
6:11 - Madjoki: made second account, now ready to weekly change
6:11 - Madjoki: there shouldn't be major changes in bitcoin value, but even free 0.98 is better then paying whole $1
6:12 - Wagglesworth: Oh, yeah. I'm more worried about Humble trying something to stop it, should it become too common.
6:12 - Madjoki: would they care? they get money either way
6:13 - Wagglesworth: I dunno. I imagine they wouldn't be happy about the exploitation, regardless of which company feels it more. My worry only comes because they have the ability to do something.
6:14 - Wagglesworth: But I suppose ot would be more of a problem for Bitcoin
6:14 - BobbyTastic: I posted the end of my Playfire saga
6:14 - Wagglesworth: Like I care what they think
6:14 - BobbyTastic: In case anyone cares, lol
6:14 - Wagglesworth: What now?
6:14 - Madjoki: More like Coinbase. Bitcoin really doesn't care how anyone uses it.
6:15 - Wagglesworth: Right, coinbase, whatever it is.
6:15 - Madjoki: Doesn't groupees & indie gala accept bitcoin too?
6:16 - Wagglesworth: Gonna be rolling in the humble links on trade forums if this exploit sticks around, though.
6:16 - Wagglesworth: I hope so.
6:16 - Madjoki: yeah they do
6:16 - Madjoki: this is serious shit
6:16 - Wagglesworth: Are bitcoin anc coinbase the same thing?
6:16 - Madjoki: no
6:17 - Madjoki: Bitcoin is P2P money.
6:17 - Madjoki: Coinbase is just one site supporting payments with it
6:17 - Wagglesworth: Oh. I don't see a coinbase option on Groupees, unless I'm missing it. Gala does it, though?
6:18 - Madjoki: its B on right. (generic bitcoin logo)
6:19 - Wagglesworth: I thought that wasn't the same thing?
6:19 - Madjoki: you can pay on any site using bitcoins using any provider
6:20 - Wagglesworth: So coinbase and Bitcoin use the same currency, or whatever it is? Cool.
6:20 - Madjoki: yes
6:20 - Wagglesworth: Neat. I might need Pretentious Game.
6:20 - Madjoki: groupees & ig use coinbase, but there are others too (don't remember by name thought)
6:22 - Wagglesworth: Guess I'll make a new spam gmail to use on coinwhatever. don't want to flood my usual spam gmail with new facebook account crap
