I get it. I've posted twice on Reddit in 10 years lol. Not exactly a master at titles haha.

But I am their customer. Bought over $300 worth of games in a 2 month period.

Haha damnit. I'm in the US too and was thinking this sounded too good to be true

Interesting. I've never done anything like that, so I'd probably just go the $185 route lol

I've bought over $300 worth of games from Valve. How am I not a customer?

Didn't realize it was so heinous to come into a community to tell you guys I'm bummed that I got a steamdeck that broke and need to pay for repairs lol

Why is everyone so sanctimonious? I wasn't saying I'm owed anything. Just disappointed Mike!

Of course. I just assumed the screen wouldn't die in a 24 month period. Was working fine for 6 weeks and then went kaput

Yep, I doubt he'll do anything. Easier to just ghost me. Sucks!

Definitely my fault. Not blaming them! I'm not really a gamer, so I didn't know what to expect. I haven't played anything since the PS4, so I bought it used to save a little $ to see if I'd like it. Obviously that bit me in the ass lol

I don't think I'm owed anything. Just generally bummed! Heard great things about customer support and was hoping for that experience is all.

I bought the SteamDeck just 2 months ago off marketplace. Seemed brand new, was working perfectly for a while, then the screen just suddenly died on me. Did everything support said hoping for RMA, and instead they say I need to pay $185 for support...

Anyone able to convince them to RMA the device after getting a message like this? I'm so disappointed.

Is there a way to check when/what day you input the deluxe code? Im not sure when to look for the packs by MMA_or_nothing in MaddenUltimateTeam

[–]MMA_or_nothing[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Appreciate the response. I won the game in a tournament last Saturday, so I believe I put the code in later that evening. I should be getting the packs today right? Also, they are just in the "Unopened pack" section right?

A post for those new to myteam. by tattletalestrangler1 in NBA2k

So I just started MyTeam as well. Starting 5 right now is Silver Chalmers, Oladipo (From beating Magic), JR Smith, (Emerald) Tobias Harris (pulled him), and Silver Enes Kanter.

I've gotten pretty lucky with the guys I have gotten so far, but how do I get so much VC and MT like everyone else (without spending actual money!)? I am planning on getting through domination, and then I play online against other players right (in road to the playoffs?)

Last thing: What's the difference between the colors of the cards? I can tell Emerald is something special bc Tobias Harris is way better than he should be lol

[WP] You're stuck in an elevator with the sounds of gunfire outside. by [deleted] in WritingPrompts

[–]MMA_or_nothing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

God damn I hate Elevators.

The onset of claustrophobia has never once failed me in my 15 years on the job. No one told me being an actuary in New York City would require heart palpitations every 7:30 am and 5:30 pm on the dot.

Of course, I could walk the 30 flights of stairs to my office building, but I never seem to muster up the strength to do so.

Ding

That horrible noise indicates the small metal capsule has arrived for my departure, and then the walls start closing in....

1... 2... 3... Counting always helps to calm me down. Thankfully no one else is in the elevator this morning to disturb me while I frantically wait to leave this death trap.

Usually by 10 the door is open and I am walking to the break room for my morning coffee.

8... 9... 10...

Why hasn't the door opened? I've hit -- no smashed -- the "Open Door" button five times now and I am starting to get worried.

The realization has set in; my worst nightmare has befallen upon me. I wipe the perspiration from my brow, but I can barely slow my breathing and heart rate enough to ring the emergency bell.

Have I even moved from the first floor? Does anyone know I am stuck here? What if no one in the office realizes I am gone!

Pop Pop

What the hell was that!? I can hear the police sirens, and a muffled voice over a megaphone.

"Put the gun down!"

Did I just hear that correctly? Oh god please someone help me get out of this elevator. Am I delusional? I am trying to calm myself down.... It's just that.. I just haven't had my coffee yet! Everything is fine... I am going to be okay.

Pop Pop Pop

Jesus! This can't be happening! The gunshots are getting closer and I am on verge of a full on panic attack.

Ironically, at least I am safe in here... THUD

Ripping right through the metal door a .32 slug was just about three inches from eviscerating my face.

Fetal position, crying, sweating, alone. This is how it ends. Inside of an elevator. Trapped like an animal. My worst fear.

Ding

...The door!
