[QUOTE=FFStudios;29241994]If it's released today, what are the chances of going down to GameStop and picking up me retail box? I ordered it for PC and regardless of when I theoretically buy the game from them, Steam still wouldn't let me play until it WAS released.[/QUOTE] Slim to none, if you ask me. Wouldn't hurt to try, though.
[QUOTE=TyPhOn!;29241937]Valve is going to remove all potatoes that weren't acquired the legitimate way, so that'll shave off a couple of thousand...[/QUOTE] how do you know

Yep [editline]nope.avi[/editline] Fuck Audiosurf. There is no way I didn't get gold with 300K
[QUOTE=Blueplastic;29241877]You never made to 4-19? Dude...[/QUOTE] i got the game for free yesterday from someone who bought the potato pack
[QUOTE=DiscoBiscut;29242146]Estimated time of release at the current rate[/QUOTE] No idea why it's counting up though. At some point it was even higher than the Valve counter for me :v:.
[QUOTE=Overv;29242180]No idea why it's counting up though. At some point it was even higher than the Valve counter for me :v:.[/QUOTE] It's counting up since we haven't been getting a time reduction since a while, so it's getting closer to the official release time.
1 day 23 hours in and only 4 done. Definitely going to be Tuesday at this rate.
[QUOTE=Meatpuppet;29242102]how do you know[/QUOTE] They said they would in the forums. But by legit, they meant a website had figured out the algorithm to literally just generate potatoes with links. I don't think they even counted in the ticker.
[QUOTE=Overv;29242180]No idea why it's counting up though. At some point it was even higher than the Valve counter for me :v:.[/QUOTE] yep. this is what was confusing me too.
[QUOTE=superdinoman;29242218]1 day 23 hours in and only 4 done. Definitely going to be Tuesday at this rate.[/QUOTE] Today is going at a decent rate. And we "might" get overclocking soon.
Well. Don't go on /v/ I just read the first couple of words of a long spoiler and that's ruined it for me. I hope it's not true :(
[QUOTE=DaDillsta;29242230]Today is going at a decent rate. And we "might" get overclocking soon.[/QUOTE] We've been saying we might for 2 days.
[QUOTE=Khaos-23;29242237]Well. Don't go on /v/ I just read the first couple of words of a long spoiler and that's ruined it for me. I hope it's not true :([/QUOTE] Never go on /v/ during a game's release.
I don't believe in anything other then what the official site says.
Actually, never go on /v/.
[QUOTE=Khaos-23;29242237]Well. Don't go on /v/ I just read the first couple of words of a long spoiler and that's ruined it for me. I hope it's not true :([/QUOTE] that's it. no /v/ or any other 4chan or 4chan-like site for me until I've finished Portal 2. (thanks for warning me, I would've forgotten to think about that threat) also no Portal 2 megathreads. (they tend to have at least someone not censoring the spoilers) :colbert:
1.4K potatos left. Also, go read this lol, brilliant: [url]http://forums.steampowered.com/forums/showpost.php?p=21859579&postcount=134[/url]
Oh God... It's around 1k potatoes left to see if a overclock or something will happen.
Better not watch any videos either.
Guys..I think I am failing in an atmosphere of extreme pessimism...This test is impossible.

Less that 1000 potato's until the truth is revealed. Then we'll all go "Fuck optimism and hope"
[QUOTE=Conro101;29242346]just sit in a comatose state refreshing GLaDOS@Home[/QUOTE] That's what I've been doing the past two days. I've ignored basically everything else. I might be obsessed with Portal 2.
yeah that happens to me a lot
Was trying to get gold on Device has been modified, kept on getting lower 400ks. Decided I'd take the quitter route and just play easy, and I got it. Then i went back to playing the hard version and I got 580k :D Also, my dad really likes the song The Device has Been Modified. Dunno why.
Whats the key potato number thingy again?
