Ixamyakxim: Hi! I kind of think of you as a fixture of these things - have I been spending too much time thread bouncing or just missed you around a lot or were you lurking this go around?
Hey there. =)
No, you didn't miss me.
Between extreme lack of sleep when I started, a couple of nagging health problems, the realization that the standard structure of the sale, the highs and lows that keep it interesting and fast-paced on one side while helping to produce a sense of community since people tend to talk more when they're stuck in a lull, the removal of virtually all sense of anticipation after seeing the initial hundred titles in the first few hours,
and my sitting at over 1,100 games?
I kinda said to hell with it since I'd already purchased every title that stood out within the very first quick round. Changed my original plan, burned my remaining budget and got out.
Ended up with 8 more items from the sale, and 3 I grabbed at retail price.
