after more than 15 hours straight of sitting still refreshing the damn thing ... i go to sleep for a couple of minutes and BAM all keys gone ,

thanx alot .... really apreciated -.- , yes i know it's free stuff and i shouldn't complain but those bots that got half of the keys if not more don't deserve it more than i do -__-

thats a lie, no one would waste that much time for just another game to their steam library that they will never even install.

if you're talking about my steam library .. those all are relatively new and giving my shitty connection (1mb/s :120KB/s ), i can only download a game or two at a time :) (waiting to get a better connection and more HDD space)

and yes i did waste that much time .. ofc not ALL the time was for that page , but it was like (i'll look at this AND I'LL REFRESH every 10 seconds) kind of thing ,

i really get you, stayed there 3 hours (actually like 5 minutes before&after the hour, for 3 hours) thought they wouldn't give it anymore so i went to have dinner and of course what happened? they put them up!! >8( i'm gonna murder my karma gods if i ever get to them!! aaanyway oh well, here's to hoping next time will end differently(spoiler: it probably wont=P)

same boat as you. i spent the whole damn day refreshing since they made the "within 24 hours" announcement just in case they pull a fast one. and ofcourse, they decided release the keys late and exactly the same time i start work.

you realise you could've moved your ass and got 3x the profit.

Thief is like $50, you really don't deserve the game if you were waiting 15 hours, to get a free $50 item.

15 hours x $5/hour = $75.

Think of the damage you've done to your eyes, watching the screen for 15 hours.

i love how ignorant some people look like when they try to give morals and whatnot ,

first , you don't know where i live .. nor my financial status and how "easy" it is for you to get 75$ ,

second , i do use my pc everyday for various tasks including gaming and watching tv/youtube for hours .. i did not overdo my "eyes" because that's my normal use time , ofc i do take breaks to do other stuff but this time i mostly waited for the GA because it's the weekend ,

oh well .. people and their assumptions really amuse me sometimes :)

even if you're living in a country where the average wage is like 1.50 $

if you had worked 15 hours straight, you'd have gotten 22,50 $. And even for that money you could have traded you like 2 copies of the game.

you know what ? whatever i'm not arguing anything :) ,

but here's a hint on where do i live :
A) it's considered the shittiest country in the world according to the news now , and B) it barely has internet anymore

oh and btw , i already HAVE theif and it's sitting in my library now , you know why did i wait for that ? BECAUSE I WANTED TO PUT A GOOD WASTE TO MY NOT-SO-IMPORTANT TIME and try to get a code to gift it here to some people (even in this thread) that couldn't make it because of they're sleeping or in school , i wanted to give them a fair chance since i had nothing important to do that day ..

but yeah you're right ... what a pussy i am for not buying a 50$ game (btw the dollar exchange has risen to 5 times what it was 3 years earlier ... so for me a 50$ game is like paying 250$)

so yeah , you and your first world thinking do not apply to every freaking human on this earth right now , stop making assumptions when you know so little to none ...

easy ;) i've managed to be online when they started the giveaway, and i managed to press "get key" during first 30 sec, but still got nothing. So it's more a matter of pure luck.

First, I never implied that ur a pussy or anything, I just wanted to point out that there always are some ways to make money. I also couldnt know that u wanted to get it for making a giveaway here, which would be very generous.

Second, the game only costs 50 $ in the store. Theres tons of people offering it for around 8 tf2 keys.

I'm also a bit curious now how u managed to afford the Thief copy u already, when its pricetag is like 250 $ in your country.

For people that didn't win, and cba spending time f5'ing.
Create Twitter account if you havent got one, install TweetDeck, follow @AMDRadeon and set TweetDeck to show notification alert and play sound when @AMDRadeon tweets anything, you cant miss it.

Then when it's live, refresh AWA giveaway website at full hour (sync windows time), and when you are about to grab it - click it ONCE and wait patiently, we all know the website is kinda slow then - if you keep clicking continuosly it will just keep refreshing/restarting trying to load the page and u will just be even more behind in queue.

And ofc make sure you are logged in @ AWA website... = profit.

The Thief page in the Steam store now says you get genuine TF2 items and Dota 2 items if you pre-order

For those lucky people who got the game, do you play either of those games and if so did you get those items?

TF2 and DOTA2 items are only for Steam-preorders.

Pre-order is only Steam/retailer exclusive. Your key is different.

Because it's already enough trouble to get keys to give for free, they don't give a damn about the distributions' specifics; and I can't blame them.

I was lucky enough to win today after all these times I have tried. One question though, before they reveal you the steam keys of the games you chose, there was a screen mentioning optional rewards. The one was AMD Ramdisk(a program) and the other one was a game, does anyone remember what game it was? I passed it quickly :/

Will this game be free to play or just the beta is only free at the moment? because the optional reward was a pack with in-game stuff and don't know if I can go back reusing my code just to claim that reward.

Available Keys means unassigned keys. It doesn't show queue (or substract from Available Keys) lenght.

Which means it's lagged by minutes.
