Palamedes · 01-23-2015, 05:04 PM

24 hour warning beep boop beep.

Error: A 1 in 3 chance is pretty good actually wooiljung.
Error: MIND: Path to Thalamus coming out of goddamn nowhere (will it somehow become the highest bid-on game yet now?)

Dammit this is what I get for not sniping at the 20 minute mark. I'm going back to being a bastard after this bid.

Wooil have you swung by the Introduction thread or the chatroom yet? I don't mean to be rude, but you're coming off as a bit of a vulture.

Akumu · 01-23-2015, 07:06 PM

Yeah, joined while this was going on and only posting in this is a huge red flag.

Oh there was a chatroom? I didn't realize. I'll check it out right now, as a matter of fact

EDIT: Actually, I came by this forum while looking up some games.
Saw it once, didn't give a heck, saw it again, got interested.

Sudden sniping update: 2.5 hours remain.

(Sort of disappointed that MIND didn't build up more of a following - it could have been a contender man.)

It's that time again! Let's start, as always, by listing our top four:

Show Content

Competition's keeping pretty heavy, with 3 bidders and 300 points on our top title, Don't Starve. Unfortunately, only one of them can manage to pull it off.

Show Content

Gunpoint also has 300 points on it, but with only two bidders it did fall behind into slot two. It was a tense standoff, but in the end the guy who came out ahead was:

While MIND: Path to Thalamus only ended up third this round, the fact remains that it wasn't even close until the very last minute (well, sort of), never managing to get up to half of its current 245 point total (among four bidders).

Show Content

Finally, we have Risk of Rain, with 215 points between two bidders. Will Carnegie win the game he's been slowly building up towards, or will ChrisClark13 be the first player to nab his two games?

Right, well that brings our fourth round to an exciting conclusion. Here is the updated point list and current list of (bid on) games:

Robust Laser · 01-24-2015, 10:42 PM

dammit

I guess i'll go all in on EURO TRUCK

nobody is interested in it so i'll have to FORCE interest upon people

that's how this works right???

AgentBlue · 01-24-2015, 10:52 PM

I'm going to just keep shoving all my points onto Interplanetary.

Granolaman · 01-24-2015, 11:37 PM

Huehuehue time to disappear back into the shadows and bide until I can steal Eurotruck from cyber.

Also thanks for Mind guys! I'm gonna give it a run through this week!

Crowstone · 01-25-2015, 01:48 AM

Could I request that games that are available but with no bidders/0 points be added to postts, like maybe in a spoiler at the very bottom?

and all 75 of my points onto To The Moon!~

23 and a half hour warning!

By somewhat popular demand, the entire games list is now included in some way shape or form - top four are still first, then its the other bid on games, then the games without so much as a bid on them (you are discouraged from putting one point on each of these games for no other reason than to make them feel loved because that's a lot of work).

I've also realized that we're barely making any ground in giving all these games away , so I'm wondering if you guys would like to speed things up. Basically, we'd just double everything - everyone would now gain 50 points per round instead of 25, and we'll give away eight games instead of four each round. I've put up a poll, and you are encouraged to vote (please do so in one only if you're in both forums). This would only come into play at the start of a new round, and only if over a third of the playerlist goes for it.

amosmyn · 01-26-2015, 12:29 AM

So nobody wants that Blood dragon...?

Oh yeah, guess I'll dump the rest of my points on The King of Fighters.

Gone Home! Aw Yissss!

I do, I was just waiting for it to get within decent firing range. Which... actually I guess is right now.

155 points on Far Cry: Blood Dragon

**Schazer** · 01-26-2015, 01:13 AM

All 85 on Scribblenauts.

No there was always only one Antichamber. I screwed that one up.

With 20 for and 2 against, it looks like we're heading towards it.

However, I already stated I'm not going to activate Double Overtime Mode unless we hit a two thirds majority (which would be like 5 more people, or until a round or two from now if nobody else votes given the current majority of voters being for it).

Poll: Enter Double Overtime Mode? You do not have permission to vote in this poll.
