We actually use them at work for various things. Its really good for custom things that you don't need full sized computers for and its a good way to learn electronics and coding.

Yeah a lot of the reviews I'm seeing are positive and seems to be a better value than Sling. Probably the one negative I am seeing right now is the lack of History Channel. I know its not what it used to be as a network, but a lot of the older stuff I liked a lot. However, for like $5 a month I can do the service from Amazon for that stuff.

Thinking about using this service. The price seems pretty good just wondering how the service is. I'll probably be doing the trial run just to make sure my hardware and stuff is good, but if there are some quirks would be good to know.

LOL big boy promotions....wow.

Yes. There will be more info on that as we get closer.

If you donate $5 to the Extra Life stuff I'll make sure you'll get a gif. Also, I just made this steam group: http://steamcommunity.com/groups/SGExtraLife That way when we get all this going I don't end up spamming the normal SG group for people who don't care.

Been doing some preliminary tests and all things are looking good. I am having an issue of capturing Dead By Daylight with OBS, so if anyone has any suggestions on getting that fixed, about the only way I know how to get it to work is a monitor capture which will mess up my grand display of content. Speaking of which there's a rumor going around that I'll have a webcam going, stay tuned to see if that's true.

Locked.

We are probably going to institute new rules involving this. We haven't set a date for it, but its something we've talked about getting changed. While your write up is good, given the changes we are going to make it may be a bit outdated when we do it. We'll probably use this as a frame of reference and find a place to put this information when we do.

Here's a list of games I own for those curious: http://steamcommunity.com/id/spikedrocker/games/?tab=all Here in the next few weeks I'll debut the "grand plan" for the event, preliminary scheduling and how it all works in more detail. So what I need is some suggestions for "filler" games. Games to play for 15 minutes to an hour to help fill some holes in scheduling. I'd be down for some single player play throughs. So go through my list of games and find a game you are curious about and maybe I'll give a little sample for you to see if you'd want to own it yourself. I'll also probably do some pre-producing some bits for when I need to run to the bathroom and whatnots, so that will help there.

Problem is many people who no longer have admin don't have it for a reason and that many HGs never had admin to begin with. Again, it comes down to the problem of potential abuse of a system that has non-admins having any kind of power. It's why we have an admin application process to pick people who are mature enough for admin abilities. No matter how we'd try to regulate it we would never be able to remove the doubt for abuse.

Going to close this so people can discuss further on the thread that actually is implementing it. http://www.steam-gamers.net/forum/showthread.php?t=69207&p=829789#post829789

This has been brought up many times in the past and we are not in favor of allowing people to vote kick in any situation. It is too easily abused. Please if you have issues, contact an Admin via Steam Chat or shoutbox on the forum. If you cannot find one, please record a demo and upload a player complaint.

Alright Peeps! I'm going to do the Extra Life Game Day 2016 on November 5th, 2016. I'll set up a Steam-Gamers team for people to join, here is our page. The page is still being constructed so please bare with me, it looks like crap. Here's the Steam group: http://steamcommunity.com/groups/SGExtraLife So we are about 2 months out from this event, time for me to start to kind of get thing organized. What is Extra Life Game Day? It is a 24 hour gaming marathon event that many people participate in to raise money for Children's Hospitals all across the U.S. and Canada. There are a few places in EU but its rare for them to be setup for this and you have to contact people to get it setup. What happens is that people will stream/play video games for 24 hours and people will donate towards the person's choice of hospital. Can I participate with you? Yes you can! This is why I am reaching out this early. If you want to play with me at some point in this marathon, there will be a few ways to do this. Because this will be a fun event for anyone participating, I need to make some limits and restrictions so I can try to get to as many of you as I possibly can. So here's how its going to break down. If you do a $5 donation for my personal page, you will get first priority. Next priority will be if you sign up personally on the Extra Life website: http://www.extra-life.org/, sign up as a platinum member (info here). Next priority will be to normal members on the team. Please Note: I cannot guarantee every time will work for me or I will be able to play a game of your choice, I will try to accommodate everyone however. What will be the schedule? I will release that probably a week before the event. If you got a question, either ask me or post it here and I'll answer it. In about a month, I'll get the hype train a going for this event and announce more stuff related. EDIT: If you do sign up on the extra life site, you'll be expected to do 24 hours. But you don't have to do it all at one time, ask me for more details on it.

Fixed.

And its huge... That's what she said... That's right.

Yeah use img tags instead of the sigpic ones as they are not very stable.

Due to old administrators messing with various database entries involving the scripts that run the reputation system we cannot bring this back without other issues affecting more of the website. When we moved the website last year we looked at bringing it back when we were fixing most of our database issues however we were never able to fully fix it.

Looks like you got it to work. If you look next to your post.

What Goku said, we really don't get enough drive behind it to keep it around. I think I've seen 3-4 iterations of that server and it just doesn't work out. Its too much of a specialized niche to keep people interested.

Weird it shouldn't actually do that. I'll have to look into it. EDIT: @Rye, when did you sign up for subscriber?

No we will not add a Trade Server.

Don't know what the hell the point of this thread is but the short, simple answer is we will not be getting any kind of CS:S server.

We've talked about this in the past and really just haven't found it worth the time or effort due to the lack of things to use points on. Things that you listed either we give for free anyway cause we aren't asses or just isn't worth the time to code it into the forum. The feature really neat idea, but we've always felt it would/could generate more forum spam than we want to deal with and that people would not find it that interesting.
