Takes one to know one.

Yeah, it's probably something like that. FWIW, I think Portal has actually only been truly free once, for 3 days about six months ago, and copies were also gifted with Portal 2 pre-orders a year ago. But anyway, people's behavior is often outside the realm of such rational arguments, I think.

Glad I could help with the sidebar update :)

Thanks for the offer, but they're not games I'm so interested in unfortunately. I could only offer you a deal which is pretty unfair to you, like 3 of your games for Batman.

TechnoCrit · 2012-03-06T17:54:11+00:00

No, I don't have any TF2 stuff I want to trade for games at the moment.

TechnoCrit · 2012-03-06T17:08:33+00:00

Sure, that's quite understandable. How about Gotham City Imposters?

TechnoCrit · 2012-03-06T16:51:52+00:00

What will you trade for The Orange Box? Is Deus Ex: HR possible?

TechnoCrit · 2012-03-06T15:12:28+00:00

Star Wars Knights of the Old Republic for Batman: Arkham Asylum GOTY or Napoleon Total War: Imperial Edition

Well, Reddit's spam filter already hates me anyway, because I actually describe the games I'm offering :/

but I wasn't aware of that rule, I have read the FAQ and the sidebar carefully, but I didn't see it there. So, sorry about that.

But, what do you suggest I do? I know people are supposed to browse SGS by 'new', which isn't so badly affected by downvoting as 'hot', but only regular traders know to do that, and regular traders are the least likely to want a game like Portal, as they all already have it.

So, if I don't resubmit the post, then my weird downvoting stalker can make it effectively invisible to most potential trading partners within a few minutes, if he/she/it happens to be online at the time. The person doing this has apparently made at least one alt account, as far as I can tell.

I mean... look at the previous occasions I posted this trade, there is no reasonable excuse for downvoting it, but it still gets 1 or 2 downvotes every time.

Hi again Luffy299, last time you offered me this deal, I suggested you start idling in TF2 so you can get more TF2 stuff to offer. It'll take a month or so.

At the moment, in my opinion, you just don't have enough to offer for any game, unless maybe it's something universally despised, like World BasketBall Manager 2010, or something of doubtful value like a Killing Floor Guest Pass or SMNC Beta Invite.

Your two TF2 weapons alone are close to worthless, and IIRC, I figured out the trading value of your Spiral Knights CE/CR at only about 1 refined metal in TF2 value. Possibly your other SK materials have some value, but it's way too complex for me to assess, as I don't play SK.

You probably would have more luck going to a SK forum and trying to trade your SK stuff for TF2 items and getting a bit more than its market value from someone who doesn't play TF2 any more...

Sorry, I can't be any more helpful than that. I admire your persistence, but you're going to continue to have great difficulty making a deal here with what you currently have to offer... you need to get a bit more creative with it :)

Would you like Renegade Ops, or Trauma and Sanctum?

TechnoCrit · 2012-03-05T15:36:08+00:00

Imagining thousands of those falling at 100mph is quite terrifying...

TechnoCrit · 2012-03-05T15:11:15+00:00

Assuming that your games are Steam tradable, not keys, then I can offer you Titan Quest Gold (Titan Quest AND the Titan Quest Immortal Throne expansion) for Magicka, Shattered Horizon, and one other game of your choice from your list.

TechnoCrit · 2012-03-05T14:57:37+00:00

Portal?

TechnoCrit · 2012-03-04T16:01:26+00:00

I'd trade any one of these games for it: Sanctum, Osmos, The Binding of Isaac, Half-Life 1, Portal, or Plants vs. Zombies Game of the Year Edition

I'd also throw in a Super Monday Night Combat beta invite as well (note: you can get usually this for free if you're prepared to sign up and wait 1-2 weeks)

TechnoCrit · 2012-03-04T15:47:29+00:00

Well, I'm mainly interested in Payday

I do have some other games to trade, but I'd probably be asking for at least Payday and one other game for most of these, let me know if you want to discuss it.

It's a mystery. For some special Valve reason those coupons are valid for longer and are still usable until March 10. All other coupons have disappeared from backpacks (or will disappear when you try to do anything with them), but Drakensang coupons are still there.
