[QUOTE=Artyom;29195346]We pressed the potato button in Glados' chamber that I mentioned early. We got an achievement, uses the same logo as the golden potato and has the same name.[/QUOTE]

I was there!

Alright, just a question here, do I need to actually own the potato sack to raise the CPU power? Because I do have Killing floor and Audiosurf.

[jordguitar]

Schools on the east coast should be getting out now starting with elementary. Then it will be high school in another 40 then middle 40 min after that.

You need any game that is in the sack to earn points (that is tied to your account)

This whole thing would fall through if we were REQUIRED to buy the sack

It depends on where you live. here highschool gets out first.

I'm going to be setting up a team of FPers to get that achievement if you'd like to participate add me on steam.

[macdoo999]

I'm not quite sure how this works. Do we have to continue running the games for them to count or is it just when we open them?

You don't need to own Potato Sack, just boot up one of your games and have fun :buddy:

Later than late.

[Lyokanthrope]

Just got outta school. Gonna donate some CPU time as soon as I get home!

[Takuat]

Does anyone have a Super Meat Boy save I can use so I can get more Potatoes and actually play the game instead of ending the game every 10 mins in rage thus meaning less CPU power.

[Ashleigh]

Come on people, you're getting slower, 5days at this rate:

You DO realize we're still getting it early, right?
This will be a first for Valve. Releasing on time was a long shot.

Now how the fuck you know that?

[DaDillsta]

Anyone got a gift copy of TEOTW? I'm trying to get it before I buy it it's for CPU cycles only really, I've got some TF2 items I could trade I guess.

Why is it that the Wonderful End of The World has so many more CPUs? Is it just because it's older, and so more people own it?

[Fiefio]

[QUOTE=Necrotic Fever;29195610]Later than late.[/QUOTE]

Well, I didn't know, sorry.

I can't play on those anymore, my reflexes suck now, i can only play mono.

[Saxon]

The rate is dropping off very slowly, I think at best we will see a midnight release for Portal 2.

[Zombii]

Don't know if this is late or not:

No, less people has to play it

[robersdee]

Of course it will take ages, its been a massive wild goose chase to sell a fucking indie pack.

Of course Valve has planned it so the needs are so high that it will unlock only very slightly early if at all, even just an hour or two early then they still look like heros. Great marketing and people are lapping it up buying this pack.

Its been mildly entertaining and its passed the time a little, but its giving people false hope, having a countdown to another countdown all these easter eggs (potatoes lol) making people buy indie games. Its a massive waste of time, the game wont reach the targets by release time anyway and by that time it will....be released officially.

[QUOTE=UltraJake;29195675]Why is it that the Wonderful End of The World has so many more CPUs? Is it just because it's older, and so more people own it?[/QUOTE]

The opposite. Very FEW people own it, and so it gets cycles faster.

[UltraJake]

I guess people need to understand that they need to STAY in-game. In an hour or two the numbers will be higher. I know it.
