I don't think us bundle people got the GOTY now that I look into it. I have all 4 episodes from bundles and have it installed and I didn't get the big update that some others on the Steam forum are saying they got. Plus when I run it I don't see any mention of GOTY.

 
Oh they will probably fix it, it's probably just a Steam registry thing. I did mention it on the forum there but no putchforks. :p

There will be plenty of other opportunities for pitchforks I'm sure Gilby.

Interested in one of the bonus games in the Squeenix Humble Bundle but don't want to pay the full BTA price?? Now's your chance to get it on the cheap!! This will be the last auction for this bundle, with all of the purchases going straight to Make-A-Wish (via an increased purchase of one of the bundles)!! I held on to one copy of each of the Hitman games and The Last Remnant, but with 3 bundles purchased, there's plenty left to go around.
 
I'll take bids for a little more than 25 hours, and the auction will end 5 minutes before or after 12:30 PM CDT, depending on this little guy:

(one half hour after Noon, so there's no confusion  :whistle2: )
 
If you're interested, check it out here.

I have Ep 1-3 and the broken Ep4 key, I got that big update last night. I was hoping it was delivering Ep4 to broken-key people, but it didn't. There was ZERO information about what that update was last night.

 
From what I saw over at NeoGAF, jshackles and Stumpokapow are writing a program today specifically for idling cards, and finished an early build if you want to try it out. (link to his post) (link to his github)

Update: Seems Jshack uploaded the wrong early version that still had SAM code in it (SAM dev got a little perturbed about that) and took down the github page. Since he's travelling, he won't be able to upload the newer version til sometime later.
It's posted again (strikethru'd link works). Left it on overnight and got through 6 games. Only 150 to go.

And thanks to Madjoki, I won't suffer a mental breakdown in the process of listing all those cards. Been a solid summer for Steam ease-of-use.

There's two executables. You want to run start.exe and not steam-idle.exe (same thing happened when I ran the wrong one).

Or it could be something else. You have to edit settings.txt before the first time you run it (Setup Instructions.PDF explains the login/session cookie data part, but not the profile URL, which is just steamcommunity.com/id/yourusername). It apparently isn't compatible with non-English Steam yet (I think it scans the badges page looking for the word "drops" specifically as of now). It may only work on Windows.

Thanks for the update! Downloaded it and got it to work in five minutes. Much easier than SAMming those 45 games I still have drops for. The steam_idle.exe is a nice addition that shows you what game you're currently idling, although an option to turn it off would be nice, too.

Also, thanks for the anthro weeaboo game, madjoki.

I'm tempted to just get Red Faction Armageddon since I missed all the bundles and its the only RF game that will run on my computer I think. (Windows 8, 64 bit).  But I'm sure it'll be bundled again somewhere so I'll wait.

I stupidly bought Transistor during the Steam sale thinking I would totally play it right away. Haven't even installed it yet.

 
Wakfu (the game) has been around for many years. About time they released it on Steam.

I'm pretty sure that game has been out for a couple of years already. Must just be coming to Steam now. Not sure why they need a beta for that.
According to their blog post about it, this means the game is going global, not just US and Europe.

yea Im using start, and setup the settings.txt. Im wondering if just has an issue with account names that are different from id names since thats how mine is, even though it has a separate settings field for login name vs steam id url

The field for steamLogin is not your login name. It is the content from the steamcommunity cookie when you logged on with your browser. Search your steamcommunity cookies for steamLogin and paste the content in that field.

If you read the setup pdf, you would have seen this.
