    you've got to be kidding me. 100 games?!?! I don't even think I could pick 50 good games, espeically considering what I already own.

    Nice work!

    No steam messages, no emails. I'm excited, but skeptical right now. I'll keep you all posted.

    The plot thickens:

    BobbyDigi's post leads to this URL: http://store.steampowered.com.koxl.com/news/4870/

    The official Steam news URL is this:
    http://store.steampowered.com/news/4870/

    NO KOXL.COM, WHICH IS ITS OWN DOMAIN. I'm pretty sure I've been had by a ripoff of Steam's website.

    //EDIT: Yeah, pretty sure I'm not a winner. I'm emailing Valve to let them know there's a ripoff of an official Valve site on the web.

    9/10 troll. 9 because I fell for it bad and didn't even look at the darn URL, but not 10 because I don't want to give you the satisfaction of having fully defeated me.

    *grumble*nice work

    Rob actually did win, this is an elaborate ruse to keep from having to share in the winnings.

    and all I get is 4/10?

    BTW I <3 you guys. I honestly was nervous. I'm glad everyone (especially Thrax) took this in fun as that is what it was for. I honestly consider Icrontic as part of my family and I had some fearful moments that this would get me shunned.... the idea popped into my head when I saw Valves blog post and it was too good to pass up.

    Also picturing Winfery laughing and then stopping and in all seriousness saying 5/10 made me giggle at my desk.

    And errrm, Mr Thrax, did you end up sending that email to Valve? :hair:
