A look at all the good deals going ahead of the weekend, come find a bargain

Quoting: Purple Library GuyWhat I find more interesting is the nature of the sale itself--it's a massive loss leader. They are putting a significant sale on everything in the store, and reimbursing all the game companies for the difference, which means for the duration of the sale they are actually losing noticeable money on every game that sells.
I didn't read much about it, and wasn't sure if they want to compensate only Paradox, because something in the communication went wrong, or if they are compensating every company involved because that would be the nature of their sale. Is there clear statement about this?

About the f*ckup: How hard is it to send people a mail "We want to sell your game X % cheaper, press [here] if you want to take part."...?

Quoting: GuestIf your items are tradable you can drop them here: https://steamcommunity.com/id/TrashDump [External Link]
It's a bot and will let you pick items for free that nobody else wants, but the real value is droping your useless stuff there.
"... has been banned from trading."

Seems I've been too slow, do you know other such bots?

Quoting: liamdaweYeah the Steam Inventory system is a mess. I have a bunch of old beta gifts I want to remove, with seemingly no way to do so.
I asked support about the possibility to drop items, or exchange them for a single gem or whatever, to no avail.

Quoting: EhvisI'd be happier if Steam could let me manage that mess better.
Yes, and please Steam, let me delete those items without value! :dizzy:

Quoting: kuhpunktMeanwhile Epic completely fucks up their sale?

They made the sales and not the developers/publishers? That's nuts.
Wow.

One might think Epic could have hired some professionals with their money...

Quoting: Salvatos.(snip) Although I would feel bad leaving my computer on just for that. Maybe that will finally convince me to install Folding@home [External Link] and run it in my absence.
you turn your computer off????? o_O
To have it not running through for days without good reason, I figure.
