YOU WONT BELIEVE WHAT HAPPENED. I ACTUALLY GOT MY FIRST PAYCHECK. It was one time job, but still.

MY
FIRST
PAYCHECK

So what better way to celebrate it then to give games to random guys/gals on the internet?!

This giveaway will close on 19:00 GMT+1 Sunday.

You can pick four 3 dollar games from this promo (You can either pick four for yourself, two for yourself and two for random person OR you can pick 2 for yourself and 2 for certain person (as in you will say who will get it)...or any combination of the values I mentioned or two 5 dollar game and one 3 dollar game on top. You can also pick any game from catalogue (or combination of games) that will be within 13 dollar value.

It is possible to enter for another person if you wish.

You can enter by just writing anything you want but here are discussion topics for you:

1.Steam cards, brilliant move or a disaster? (I successfully crafted two emoticons and while it is imperfect and wrong system, it feels good to spam gordon freeman emoticon in chat)

2. Knife gun WHY AREN'T WE FUNDING THIS?!

3. If you were to donate limitless amount to any kickstarter/indiegogo/whatever project, what would it be?

4. Just talk about whatever the heck you want

P.S: Random.org tells me that people who start their posts with "OH ALMIGHTY GLOTTIS/DETLIK" have better chance of winning, but it could be just rumour.

P.P.S: There are no cookies. I lied. Here have a video instead

P.P.P.S: You can also pick just one 3 dollar game, with no one else getting anything, but you would have to be evil to do that...it is an option though.

The two Krondor games.

And congrats on the job, glad to see you're moving up in the world :P


EDIT: And if I win, give King of Dragon Pass to Hesusio, as it's a game that everybody must play.

Yeah, shame it was just one time job. As in when the job was done, no more moneys...its wonderful to have earned money though.
OH ALMIGHTY GLOTTIS/DETLIK

Entering for myself because I'm a greedy bastard - so I'm in for Return to Zork, Zork Nemsis, Zork Grand Inquisitor... and Torin's Passage

Steam trading cards are a crock ... as if achievements weren't bad enough we now have more collectibles that OCD idiots will go nuts for... whatever happened to playing games just for the fun of them!?

That's a shame:( But don't worry, if you work hard enough, and never quit, who knows - One day you might afford to give away a 9.99 game :P

Congrats on the job! Paychecks rock. While personally disappointed at the lack of cookies, the free games balance it out.

Question: if there were free cookies here, what kind would they be?

Detlik: 2. Knife gun WHY AREN'T WE FUNDING THIS?!
Gun-whatever have actually been in use for quite a while. In Livrustkammaren (The Royal Armoury), they actually have a gun-warhammer! And when I was at a museum in Prague, I noticed that they had a collection of several different gun-swords. Most of these seemed to be single-shot weapons, that were primarily the melee weapon, just with a gun inside of them. I don't know if these were actually used much, and finding information about these things seem to be surprisingly hard.

Also, not in.

It was at the Golden lane. One of the small museums there had a collection of old armours and weapons, and some of those weapons were pistol-swords.
Congratulations on your first Paycheck and thanks for this great giveaway, +1.
EDIT: Since I'm also a very greedy individual myself I would like to enter for Caesar 3, Dark Reign + Expansion and Zeus + Poseidon for myself.

As far as the new Steam cards trading system goes, I just think it is a new and exciting thing for achievement addicts and I guess it's fun to trade cards with your friends (no?), but in the end it's just another way for Valve to get their hands on a little more money.

I'd really like that Zeus game so I'll jump in and this time I'll actually accept nijuu's offer. Teach you people to be nice to me! MUHAHAHAHA!

Also because I want this game so bad I'm in on several threads asking/begging for it so if I win it here AFTER I've gotten it somewhere else then I'll gift it to someone else who has entered this giveaway.

And congrats to Detlik. Here is the trip, when you become really successful you will get even bigger thrill from NO paycheck. You'll be on salary or retainer or inheritance or shit, maybe you'll own an oil well or two. Either way when that happens come back here and we'll do this all over again! +1

I almost forgot:

Goddammit Licurg is right. Raising the gifts to four 3 dollar games or two 5 dollar + 3 dollar games. That oughta give you silly folk some games to play for longish time.
