Steam - The Great Gift Pile - Let's trade people!

[Laurrrr]

I think anyone who reads this thread is familiar with the gift pile, if not, then check the main page on steam. Alright so let's trade, at the moment I have 3 coals and a -33% Valve games. I am willing to trade for anything. You can either sent me a pm or post here.

[fathersquid]

I don't really have anything worth trading in the gift pile (just crappy coupons and coal, at least at the moment) ... but if anyone wants to trade some TF2 items, I'd love to get some of the things I'm missing... I'm Cassiel on Steam (same avatar as here)...

[Laurrrr]

Invitation sent. I am Wulf22.

[Laurrrr]

Just got the Valve Complete Pack thanks to fathersquid. Anyone interested?

Have nearly every game, on CD mind you :)

I've got 2 coal, 33% off steam titles and 50% off Void. Anyone want? (Coal is only viable if you're trading something really good ;))

[ayman910910]

I have supreme commander 2, and counterstrike source, will trade for most things except for valve coupons (already have all the steam games so not really much use).

[Laurrrr]

My kingdom for some coal, I have two valve coupons right now and I could use some coal.

[TEMOPOULOS]

I got 12 coal id like to trade off for some quality games pm or add me on steam if interested, i also have 2 killing floor guest passes im willing to trade

Steam name: The_Green_Marine

[Laurrrr]

@temopoulos add me on steam, I am Laurrrr.

[Violos]

Can you trade coal for coal to get the achievement?

Right now I've got 2 lumps and a 25% Valve game voucher, but am about to earn some more.

[fathersquid]

Yes you can - let me know if you want to trade... I'll help you out.

[Violos]

Done it already, but you're added.


Tradeable stuff as of now:

-25% Valve Coupon
-25% Stronghold 3 Coupon
-50% Eufloria Coupon

...and an extra copy of The Witcher
(seems to have been doubled when I sent a gift)


Now about to get the achievements from the four F2P games.

[Laurrrr]

Oh Violos, I would give you anything for that Witcher but I only have 6 coupons. :(

I know of CrimeCraft and Spiral Knights, what are the rest of F2P games?

[Violos]

Yeah...
but I'd like to wait a bit, maybe it will only disappear when the guy I sent it to redeems it.

Rise Of Immortals (another DotA clone I'm about to start next) is the third, and Rusty Hearts (no idea but Fathersquid is playing it right now).

Just spent two hours getting the one for Spiral Knights since the snow map wouldn't show up... and then got coal.

[Laurrrr]

But I don't see the achievements for Rusty Hearts nor RoI in the daily objectives.

[Darklightr]

But I don't see the achievements for Rusty Hearts nor RoI in the daily objectives.

It's because those challenges were from a while ago... I did them last week? Not quite sure, something to that effect

[Laurrrr]

I found the RoI one but still can't find the Rusty Hearts achievement.

[fathersquid]

Dec. 26th... look there...

[Laurrrr]

Is it the hidden objective there? And I have another problem. Whenever I search Rusty Hearts it just gives me a trailer and nothing else. Am I doing it wrong?

[Violos]

Maybe a region problem? Here it installed just fine.

Btw, Rise of Immortals is not just a DotA clone... it's really a bad LoL clone, down to the colors of the menus. I just played my first match ever, no tutorial, 9/0/10 with triple kills and whatnot. (Try that ghost with the sucking vortex to get those assists. Easy money.)

Now trying RH. The style looks nice, a bit like Hellsing meets Bayonetta.


EDIT: And, yay, I crafted 7 coal into a -50% coupon for Trine.
It's a great game, but not only do I own it, but it's already on sale for 2,70€. Weee.

[Laurrrr]

Nevermind, managed to get it and also took the achievement.

RoI is terrible, really terrible, and the community as well. Thankfully I got my piece of coal and I happily deleted it.

5 coals
-25% Valve
-25% Valve
-33% Valve
-50% Shattered Horizon

[Laurrrr]

The winner
http://steamcommunity.com/id/iminrightnow

I will keep the things I have to say for myself this time, I don't even...

[ASYLUM101]

Of course they give the prize to someone who doesn't even play games...

I mean how the hell did he win, he has a whopping total of like 25 hours played...ever.

[Laurrrr]

Unfortunately he was lucky and yes, I am hating. I didn't participated in this so I am not jelly that I didn't won it. I am mad because "someone who doesn't even play games"(well said) gets by night over 2000 games that he won't play. I wonder if he knows how to install them.

I think Valve tried to be fair, they knew the people with over 300 coals were cheaters so I believed they wanted to pick one with less coals...but...couldn't they look at it's profile?

And that's all my hate posted.

[D3fault]

Discounting the cheaters who accumulated tons of coal (not sure how Valve separated legit contestants from cheaters), wasn't it supposed to be a random drawing? I remember looking at the rules and it said something along the lines of "whatever coal is left in your inventory on January 2nd at 12 noon PST will automatically be entered into the Great Gift Pile random drawing". So unfortunately that kid got randomly selected :(

Although, tbh, I would not know what to do with all of those games. I would probably give about 90% away for free, then keep the last 10% if I ever got around to them. I only have 10 games right now and still don't play all of them. I only really play TQ and Killing Floor, with some occasional Half-Life 2, Oblivion, and KOTOR thrown in.

Does anyone know anyone who got their top 10 games, top 5 games, or Valve complete pack? I'm curious because no one on my Steam friends list said they got any of prizes, and I have a fairly substantial number of people who I queried from my friend's list.

EDIT: Oh, I also have one 25% valve coupon and one 50% valve coupon. I'm not interested in ANY other valve games aside from the ones I already own. Anyone interested in trading for them?

[Laurrrr]

I got the Valve Complete Pack by completing the trade achievement.

[ASYLUM101]

The only Valve game I'm interested in (that I don't have) is Episode 3...and by the time that's released my Valve coupons (which don't stack, obviously) are gonna be worthless. :/

And yeah, the only thing I got was valve coupons. I have like 6.

[Laurrrr]

Do you think he would be a target for hackers now?

[Violos]

Lol... that profile...

If there is a god meddling in this world, he has a strange sense of humour.

[ASYLUM101]

Right?

[Laurrrr]

Apparently that idiot isn't the winner and the real winner remains anonymous. Phew.

[Violos]

What makes you say that?

After all he does own 2.205 games now...

[Laurrrr]

Guys, he's not the winner. He already has 2.157 games back to Nov 27, 2011.
Check it out:

He is probably the son of some rich dude working at Valve or something similar.

And apparently this one is:
http://steamcommunity.com/id/psychomantis

It's not as bad as the first one.

[D3fault]

He has 186 hours in KF so he can't be too bad.

[Violos]

Good.
At least that one uses it well to play Witcher and Assassin's Creed. :)



And this

This looks like some kind of "Make a Wish Foundation" thing for a mentally disabled kid.
is kind of mean. But I lol'd. :D

[Laurrrr]

Yeah but

u play as american vs rusan in ww2. it is start game where u build tank and rifle to shoot at comunist who is nazi. they havea all famous spot such as londen and mosco as u and army go on mission to defet josef stalin and his nazi troop

9/10, higly recomend for history buff

dis game is rly good. u play as jc jensen before he was a nano. u learn how he become man he is be in deus ex. 10/10 would paly again

thisi s good gam

Makes me seriously doubt his intelligence level.

[Darklightr]

Wait, since when did the Americans invade Moscow? WTF IS THAT?!

Anyway, lucky guy. If you see the comments on his page, people are lining up... Just to get to his game library XD
But really, that first guy was a scare... Maybe VALVe just wanted to freak us out. He was... disappointing, to say the least
But now what happens to everything I have? Albeit, it's not much (a couple coupons and 4 coal). Just curious as to what VALVe is planning

[Laurrrr]

I don't think there's anything Valve plans with those anymore, they had the big prize thing for the ones with coal left and that's all. The coupons are left for you to use and about the coal...if it didn't disappeared from your inventory then I guess you can still trade it for games with users who still do that. That's what I think so don't blame me if you lose your chance at winning Skyrim or anything.

Also:

u and army go on mission to defet josef stalin and his nazi troop
Can't have enough of this :lol:

[Darklightr]

I can't believe he won :cry::cry::cry::cry:

Yeah. So I have two coupons... 33% Off VALVe and 50% Off Void. Any want them? For free or if you're willing to trade sure... Just no coupons :D
