I just missed coupons that have stacked before?

Yes. There's many stacking coupons. However crafted coupons don't stack.

Non-stacking coupons have this "Can't be applied with other discounts." in description.

Mostly smaller -10%/-20% coupons, but there are at least -50/-75% Endless Space coupons that do stack.

Thanks. I must have either not gotten those types of coupons or gotten them when there was no sale on those games.

I thought I read somewhere it is a legal thing with horse meat in the US, and that we actually slaughter and process horse meat here to ship to other countries. I also heard the FDA was considering changing that or something.
Click to expand...
Yes we do. However from 2007-2010 Congress prohibited horse meat inspections, effectively shutting down slaughtering horses for meat. It was proposed to defund horse meat inspections again.

Horse meat is actually quite healthy, being low in fat. Horses are not raised for meat consumption due to the poor conversion rate of pound of feed to pound of horse (and their higher quality diet needs).

The problem with horse meat is some of the veterinary drugs used on them, particular late in life, and especially in race horses. These drugs can be harmful to humans.

These two look interesting. I'd like them.

Also, I have (finally) felt like I have asked for too much without a single donation and now I feel like a leech. No, don't try convincing me otherwise! It's true! So I'm down for a donation. But I can't get to a secure computer until tomorrow or Tuesday, so keep those donations open!

Sent and hurray!

I will be fundraising through October 25th, though the donation page will be open partway through November.

 
Thanks snakey for feeding my game addiction! Grabbed everything but Sweet Lily Dreams as I already had it!

Edit: Been needing to hand these out so now is a good a time as any.

I went to donate live on stream to show my viewers how to do it after getting a few complaints that it seemed like a scam. Certificate for the site was old. Hopefully the error will be fixed later this week because I think that scared everybody on the stream from donating. I'll try getting them to donate again when it gets fixed, but it may be rough. It was a very awkward moment.

The certificate looks good from here.

Extra Life has been working with Children's Miracle Network for a few years, and CMN has a 4 out of 4 star rating on Charity Navigator. You can search for Extra Life on the CMN page and find all kinds of stuff.

I'll field this one.

Indie devs are enthusiasts. They like games. They like games enough that they learned to make them as a hobby, and they became decent (not going to say good) enough at the craft to make something that they decided was finished enough to market.

But the experience gained in learning to create a game doesn't apply at all to marketing or distributing a game. All of the trials and errors that were involved in the process that led to creating a game were done in private. Being a businessperson is a public endeavor. While it's just as much a learning experience, the mistakes and failures don't occur in private any longer.

Indie devs shouldn't be expected to know how to handle a game release. That doesn't excuse the worst decisions, but it's worth asking, what did you expect?

The other side of things is the businessperson who decides to go into games. There you have someone who knows that manually distributing things to every customer or putting your one and only product out there in a bundle for "exposure" without a way to monetize anything afterward is Shaq-fuing ridiculous. But then you have the same ignorance of the actual development side and ask your team to make something comparable to GTA in under two months because other genres can pump out games in that time.

TLDR: It's unfortunate when people who are good at one thing are either forced into or decide they're just as qualified for taking on some other role that is completely beyond their abilities.

Or he could just be an asshole.

Either way, he's dug his own grave and it's nobody's fault but his own.

So I guess DrR0Ck = reading fail. When I saw the initial match announcement, I made another donation. Did not realize the offer was not yet live.

Regardless, I was happy to make the donation.

lol the guy even edited his old post from over a year ago?

Man he really is trying isn't he.
Click to expand...
Because nobody on the internet would ever take a screenshot. :roll:

I'm even fine with him editing it to add on his reasons why he is changing his mind about giving the keys, not that I agree with it but if he wants to expand on the old post to clarify his point of view fine. What's not fine is deleting stuff he previously said when promises were made. There's also no point because several people already said they took screenshots before he even deleted it so why bother?

*Edit: Never mind. He left the original at the top. I was expecting it at the bottom for some reason. Hey, It's early and I haven't had my coffee yet. :headache: Still a dumb move though in my opinion but I guess he's explaining himself.

Oh and re: what Dpsycho said, Indie devs aren't business people. Yeah, I get that. But they can learn and make an effort or if they are unwilling, unable or just not good with that sort of thing and/or aren't people people there are small publishers like KISS that will take on indie games and handle that sort of stuff for them. Of course you have to pay them but that's the way the world works.

In this case the guy seems unwilling and unable to properly promote his game so paying someone else to do that probably would have resulted in more sales and definitely would have resulted in less resentment and hard feelings from past buyers.

Interested in one of the games in the upper tiers of the Squeenix Humble Bundle but don't want to pay the full tier price?? Now's your chance to (maybe) get it on the cheap!! The turnout for Rounds 1 and 2 were so good, I bought another full bundle, all of the purchase going straight to Make-A-Wish!! Everything is up for grabs this time, including the Hitman games and Lara Croft!

Check it out here.
Click to expand...
So after $45 to Make-A-Wish for 3 bundles (plus whatever the bonus games earn upon tomorrow's reveal), this round, we're going to mix it up. Same format, short auction for all the games in the Square Enix Humble Bundle, but this time, the total earned will be donated to DocSquatch before Midnight Traviathan time tonight. If you make any purchase from my auction, I'll make sure you get on Dr. Sasquatch's list of donors. Basically, you're donating to him through me, and getting a game for your trouble. Check out the link in my quote to start the bidding!

One shouldn't need trial and error to learn that not giving something that was promised is going to backfire, especially with no other reputation earned. The best thing for him to take from it would have been to suck up the fact that he didn't make any money from his game because of his bad decisions, but now he still won't make money and he has a bunch of ticked off people.

It could just be me though, but how many people will actually remember the publisher or even look if he makes another game that looks interesting? I don't think it will totally ruin his chances because I think (rightly or wrongly) that most people are like me in that regard. I'll probably forget about it after a week tbh.

The internet doesnt forget though. Any time this dev has another game, or a sale, or basically anything new, you can count that there will be a forum post in that game saying not to buy it because of his previous actions.

Have fun with those!

Everyone remember to donate today to get your donation matched by the distinguished and admirable Travathian! The page do so is right over here at my Extra Life page.

In addition, anyone who donates 25 dollars today gets to pick a game for me to stream for at least an hour. And 50 dollars or more will get you three hours! And that will go all the way through to the end of this thing, but if you donate today, I will let you pick two games (4 for 50) and I will play them each for an hour or more live on Twitch and probably posted on Youtube or something, as long as I can figure out the recording and stuff. Fun!

 
In other topics... I just noticed something very strange in the Steam database: Three of the four Dreamcast Collection games (Sega Bass Fishing, Space Channel 5 Part 2 and Crazy Taxi)... have received some updates today, and all four (Sonic Adventure DX included) now have a couple of testing builds.

Could this mean the games might be getting achievements and cards?

Doesn't look like community_visible_stats was added, so doesn't look like achievements are coming soon.

Looks like they added a launcher to public builds.

Don't own games, so I can't check what it does.
