#PotatoFoolsDay v3 - Science rhymes with Compliance. Do you know what doesn't? Potatoes - Games

I just wondering, we can change game any ID to any game from Potato Sack and then play. Is it possible? It will thack that we're playing SPB for example.

Valve really overestimated their fan-base this time. I mean this is fucking impossible.

gah fuck windows update closed all the games

[QUOTE=booster;29213467]Valve really overestimated their fan-base this time.

I'm all for an early release, but all this just for that seems like a bit much. Also playing all these games from the pack that I own over and over, to get potatoes, or to contribute to this thing, I'm getting kind of tired of them. I let one idle, but I like to turn my computer off, and I like to have things free. I shouldn't really be pushed to let a program idle, and I certainly don't feel like playing a puzzle game or something for hours on end.

It's funny how these 4 days seem to be taking much longer now that we're aware that we can get it early.

If you want to help by buying a potato pack game then make sure you can put in 48 hours of game play and/or get all the potatoes you can.

Gah! Our projected early release time is going up. When I last checked, the Javascript told me it was 53:39:00. Now it's up to 53:44:00. This is just because it's early morning, right? :ohdear:

There really doesn't seem to be anything close to a solid set time, besides the original release date/time.

[QUOTE=Benlecyborg;29213552]After Kick It we should do AAAAA! I mean look at it, 856 odd CPU's and it's pretty big.[/QUOTE] Actually, if we finish Kick It and it turns out Kick It's bonus is even smaller than Wonderful End's, then it would confirm that games with larger userbases give higher bonuses. If that turns out to be true, we should definitely focus on Killing Floor, even if it takes us a bit longer. It might give us a bigger bonus in the end compared to doing all these smaller games that give much smaller bonuses.

Anyone got A link for the shortened icy_murderous_I song? Can't find it on the wiki :\

Wait, can guests LOOK at the page? Because the numbers would skyrocket if they knew. I mean, the other threads had like 500+ guests...

Having to unplug my keyboard was really assholish of dejobaan :v:

haha, does nobody think this was just a smart move by valve? i mean come on, they knew people would buy the potato sack and get the playing times up, meaning that valve would get a good cut in this from the company (by more play times and more sold). they probably knew it wouldn't advance the launch of portal 2 too early, and they're left with releasing a game near the time they planned, and with a fuck load more money.

Why do the Killing floor one need so many people anyway? I know alot of people own it, but I doubt we can get 25,000(or more i don't know). It would have to beat Black Ops's multiplayer, which isn't going to happen anytime soon.

A lot of people own it, so the requirement to fill the bar is extremely high, unfortunately. Where it's at now, I find to be lucky. The player (CPU) count was around 4000 average all day, and it barely moved most of the day, and now it's at a decent amount.

im probably really late but whatever... when you look at the page source of glados@home there is a line 08:57 - Default boot scheduled to finish in <span id="console_clock" style="display: none;">71:23:18</span><br> i get it that its just the text, but what about the 71:23:18 line (its not the current time) note: i dont know php so if its something obvious for you dont blame me :)

Got home, thinking I'd be playing Portal 2 within 5 minutes.. and it's not out.

Despite what I said yesterday, this is actually a pretty genius move. You have to figure some people bought the potato pack or parts of it recently for nothing more than whatever they thought the potatoes were supposed to do. By making it that more people playing the games speeds up when Portal 2 is released, it gets them to potentially play something that would probably have just taken up HD space since they got their potatoes.

They should go back to delaying their games instead! hnnnnnnnng"

This had better be the best game we will ever play in our entire lives with all the tedious shit we're going through just to release it several hours early. On a Monday.
