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

[quote] There's also still time to collect all 36 potatoes. Anyone accomplishing this feat by the time Portal 2 launches will receive a very special, non-hat-based reward. [/quote] Read this and IGNORE THE DAMN POTATOES My PC uses about 500 watts , I have never seen a spud do that in my life...

[QUOTE=Inspector Jones;29194281]Why is Killing Floor's Bar moving so slow despite having the most people playing it?[/QUOTE] Different requirements for different games. KF probably has a higher requirement due to generally more people having it as opposed to, say, TWEOTW.

[QUOTE=xjames0x;29194289]Read this and IGNORE THE DAMN POTATOES My PC uses about 500 watts , I have never seen a spud do that in my life...[/QUOTE] What the hell are you talking about? If people are getting potatoes they are getting play time and that's good enough for me. + their increasing the multiplier.

We reached third bar :D

People need to stop playing Counter strike and CoD!

[QUOTE=xjames0x;29194289]Read this and IGNORE THE DAMN POTATOES My PC uses about 500 watts , I have never seen a spud do that in my life...[/QUOTE] OH COME ON. I wouldn't even be able to get all of them, i suck at games.

Countdown is going down rather fast already!

Valve is so damn awesome for doing this with all those indie games. The devs are probably shitting themselves right now because of the sale numbers.

[QUOTE=booster;29194331]People need to stop playing Counter strike and CoD![/QUOTE] Let's try and get this on important famous blogs, like Notch's, Garry's, TF2's, etc.

I don't think we'll get it by tomorrow. This was harder than I thought.

Maybe the site displays the Portal 2 players once released. After all it still says "test subjects: zero" in the background.

ok so how does this work? Do we just have to launch the game or do we have to keep playing it?

[QUOTE=Killuah;29194345]Valve is so damn awesome for doing this with all those indie games.

This advertising mechanic is such a great idea but it's an asshole move :c

[QUOTE=sade1212;29194364]Let's try and get this on important famous blogs, like Notch's, Garry's, TF2's, etc.[/QUOTE] RPS already has it.

KF is updating.

[QUOTE=ana-r3x3a;29194376]Devs are probably already loaded with cash. This advertising mechanic is such a great idea but it's an asshole move :c[/QUOTE] Why is it an asshole move? Towards whom?

[QUOTE=MasterG;29194294][url]http://store.steampowered.com/stats/[/url] We're meeting the average daily maximum of users online.[/QUOTE] but it's still going to rise 100,000-200,000 users and that should be enough. And even if the amount of steam users starts to go down people can change their games.

[QUOTE=scotland1;29194235]Camping 123 Kick It because it has the lowest numbers.[/QUOTE] OK I guess everyone is going WEotW, I'll idle that then.

[quote=G2Play]Dear Sir, There is slight chance that you will recieve the keys earlier, please stary calm :) Regards[/quote] fuck yea

[QUOTE=MasterG;29194294][url]http://store.steampowered.com/stats/[/url] We're meeting the average daily maximum of users online.[/QUOTE] So? I leave Steam up when I'm not even home, just because they're online doesn't mean they're being useful or even active.

[QUOTE=ana-r3x3a;29194320]What the hell are you talking about? If people are getting potatoes they are getting play time and that's good enough for me. + their increasing the multiplier.[/QUOTE] Sorry I probably should have quoted the guy that said we should ignore cpu power and concentrate on getting potatoes.

[QUOTE=Killuah;29194389]Why is it an asshole move? Towards whom?[/QUOTE] Torwards everyone who has just been following along with the ARG hoping for that early Portal 2 release.

[QUOTE=ana-r3x3a;29194414]Torwards everyone who has just been following along with the ARG hoping for that early Portal 2 release.[/QUOTE] But we are still getting an early release.

[QUOTE=goon165;29194375]ok so how does this work? Do we just have to launch the game or do we have to keep playing it?[/QUOTE] Seeing how this is "distributed computing" I'd think you have to keep them open.

[QUOTE=MAspiderface;29194386]KF is updating.[/QUOTE] My Toki Tori is updating, instead. :wtc:

[QUOTE=goon165;29194375]ok so how does this work? Do we just have to launch the game or do we have to keep playing it?[/QUOTE] you have to keep the game running.

[QUOTE]This update will require a server update. Server admins need to update their servers before you will be able to connect to them. Also of note for clients, if you recieve an error about KF-Trader mismatch on connect, you can either change the games language to english, or delete that localized file and that should clear the issue. Changelog: *We have addressed a connection hang issue between clients and servers. *Aperture has been updated - Her chamber is now open....[/QUOTE]

They said something this morning about "her chamber" but it's just for the game I'm guessing.
