GM Game-Key Lottery

Obaruler — Tue, 07 Sep 2010 10:43:32 GMT

As some of you might know, at GamesCom 2010 in Cologne Valve had its own Steam/Portal 2 stand, and they were giving away keys to everyone that asked for it. Well, me and my mates who have been there asked them several times during our 4 days there, and after I gifted a few keys to guys that I know they wanted to have these keys I still have some left here and don't know what to do with it but gift them to anyone.

Also, i got quite a few PNs concerning these keys, in fact more than i have left, so I thought about a possibility to spread these keys in a fair way without breaking anyones heart or beeing a douche to someone closer that asked me. So i decided to make it the only fair way I can imagine for this case and let your fortune decide, means: I am making a little lottery.

Which keys are be talking about here?

Well, these aren't Portal 2 Beta Keys (goddamn, I know :-/), they are keys for allready released Valve Games, I won't put any TF2 keys in here, since everyone of you strangers ended up in this Forum because you saw a link on our TF2 servers i guess, so these won't be part of this (unless you find a good reason why you need another key of course :P). The keys I've got left are:

3x L4D2
1x L4D
4x Portal

NOTE! These keys unlock TWO copies of these games, one for you and you still have 1 copy left to gift it arround

(Also 1x Lead & Gold and 1x Shattered Horrizon key that someone else gifted to me and that i haven't used yet ... won't be part of this here either, dunno what to do with it yet, and some other keys, even for Hl2 + Epi1+2,and additional keys of the listed games, but these are planed away for RL friends that i want to "convince" to Steam with it, sry ;-) ...)

Please note that these are GERMAN keys, and that the german L4D1/2 are a bit cut, means: No cutted-off limbs, no (optically) burning zombies and corpses disappear after a few seconds. You might be able to switch this somehow if you contact the Steam Support and tell them you are non-german, but I cannot asure that, so be warned: Once you get a cut copy you might have a cut version at your account of these games forever. If you don't care about this since it doesnt influence the gameplay itself it doesnt matter anyways.

How can I win these keys?
It's pretty simple:

- DON'T PN-Spam me with a request! (If you do, you're out :P)

- Simply write a comment within the next 7 days in this thread, even if it's a simple "Goat" or "Derp", anything counts PLUS the game you want (multiple wishes are allowed, but pls be fair: If you allready have Portal or L4D2 for example, don't try to win another key, only evil and selfish germans do so ... )

- After these 7 days I will write all your names down on pieces of paper and let the fortune decide which names I pick out for EACH kind of game key seperately, but you cannot win more than 1 key, I will ask you in case if that happens which key you prefer before i continue with picking the names out

EDIT: Additional Rule:
- Only real Community Members can be part of this lottery, proove somehow that you are interested in our forum and that you are not just here to possibly win a key. At least a few hours played on our servers (we log everyone that comes to them, don't worry ;) ), or more than 10 (serious!) Postings are necessesary to be free'd from the suspicion of beeing a key troll.

Pls note that it will be really nothing but pure luck that will decide about the key's new owner, it doesnt matter if you are a manager (mhh ... hopefully they won't threaten me now for keys D: ), Admin, Clan Member, PropHunt Admin or simply a Community member, this here is free for everyone and everyone got the same chances, to proove it I might record my little paper lottery if you don't trust a german (which i can understand, we are evil).

Well, good luck to everyone. And keep visiting the site, GM ftw. = )

[GM] Photoshop challenge! Win a copy of AVP for PC!

Savage — Mon, 09 Aug 2010 13:26:53 GMT

Okay - so - I got a free copy of AVP for steam with my new graphics card, however, I'd previously given it a go and it's not my cup of tea and now I have this code sat here doing nothing...

So this is where the [GM] photoshop challenge comes in! :buddy: All you need to do is create a funny, awesome or just damn right weird photoshoop to do with the [GM] community -- with the best ones going to a vote/ a winner being chosen to recieve this copy of AvP!

So - get photoshoppin' and show me what you can do! @) Anyone can enter and you can submit as many photoshoops as you like... providing they're not all crap! ^^

This thread will stay open for five days for people to get their photoshops in - on Saturday the 14th August this thread will close and the best ones will be selected and go to a vote!

Savvy

EDIT: Photoshop was only one suggestion - if you want to make a painting or GIMP-mask then go for it! It's all about getting the edge over everyone else!

GM Highlander/6v6/7v7 Sunday 20th June 7pm

RocketDog — Mon, 14 Jun 2010 14:32:35 GMT

Since Badseed's not around I've volunteered to organise the community match this week - you know the drill, stick your name and preferred class(es) in a post and we'll add you to the list. ^^

Since the teams were deemed to be not exactly even last time, I'll try to even them out as much as possible here once we get a decent number of people signed up. If you know of anyone that's not signed up to the forums or doesn't check here regularly that you know would like to play, let me know and I'll pop them on.

Any questions you can get hold of me on Steam or via PM here.

UPDATE: Since we've had a few players drop out I've updated the availability list - see below for changes.

I'll try and get Geit or Dark to record the match using SourceTV so people can have a look afterwards to see where they could improve - I know I'll be interested. I'm also happy to render out individual POVs and stick them on Youtube or some online storage for people who aren't so confident using/playing back demos.

To try and get more interest in GM and the community, i've decided to have a community fun event, this will take place twice a month on the 2nd and 4th Saturday of every month.

The 1st event will be next Saturday (13th February) 9pm-12pm (GMT)

Each event will be a mod/event which the community will vote on

The first event i have decided is to be a class war, where everyone will be the same class playing against each other on a stock map.

The event will take place on the Payload server (81.19.212.48:27016) which i will hijack :P
