Probably a dumb question. I bought a game I want from the Steam sale. Now, I want to buy a second copy to gift on SG. Steam won't let me buy for myself because I already own it. And when I select the "gift" option, it only lets me gift it to people in my friends list. How do I buy a gift for SG?

That's not a dumb question at all!
Steam's gifting stuff changed, about a year ago? Currently you can't buy gifts to save in your inventory for later, you have to know who will receive your gift at the time you purchase it, and send it to them right then. And if they don't accept the gift, you get refunded, it doesn't go in your inventory. :(
Which sucks for us at Steamgifts, since we don't know who should get the game until later, i.e. after the sale is over, and the price is back to normal. :(
Some people make shorter time limits on their giveaways, and hope the winner responds before the sale ends. Some people give cheap stuff or bundle leftovers so it doesn't matter...
Many people have switched to buying Steam keys for their giveaways, at reputable places like the Humble Store for one example. Unfortunately, some games are only available on Steam, and some (like recent Ubisoft games) are available elsewhere, but you can only get the Steam version from the Steam store.
The games in my giveaways here, I think, were from the Humble Store, Greenman, Fanatical (the old Bundle Stars, if you remember them). Steam didn't get a single cent of my money. I'm not feeling bad about that. :)
Hope that makes a little sense... :)

Ok, this was only a puzzle if you don't like reading or looking at things before you click on them. :)
There was a HuniePop giveaway behind the smiley link, https://www.steamgifts.com/giveaway/o0bAU/huniepop ... :) Maybe some people missed it, though... :)
And the other five giveaways each had one extraneous character:
O https://www.steamgifts.com/giveaway/UMWq4/Oladykiller-in-a-bind
4 https://www.steamgifts.com/giveaway/xq4CL/4wolfenstein-ii-the-new-colossus
g https://www.steamgifts.com/giveaway/z4QLg/gobserver
0 https://www.steamgifts.com/giveaway/O2xKT/0conan-exiles
E https://www.steamgifts.com/giveaway/Zqbng/Elife-is-strange-before-the-storm
Which led everyone who noticed to O4g0E i.e. https://www.steamgifts.com/giveaway/O4g0E/tacoma - but you didn't want that game anyway, right? Walking is for nerds, let's get back to shooting each other...
Original message:
One more Steam sale thread. Blah blah blah.
I took a look at my wishlist on the first day, but it's hard to remember why I wanted most of those games. Guess that's why they are still in my wishlist?
I'll probably buy something out of habit in a couple days, either some of the cheap stuff, or maybe something good so I can feel bad for not playing it... :)
In previous years you could check the Games Under $5 list for hidden gems, but not any more... Looking today, how many of those things are even games? And do ten renamed "UnitZ" count as ten different games, or one, or maybe zero? :)
Hmm... I was intending to try all the "Steam Awards" games I owned, since they are the good ones, right? Somehow it didn't happen. Looks like I even missed a few days of free cards, too.
Oh, I even forgot to vote for HuniePop, and after writing a review to get that stupid badge too. Oops. It's on sale in the Humble Store, but I wouldn't want to get any of that stinky bundle CV. Guess I'll have to give away the other stuff instead. Sigh. :(
Speaking of sighs, I finally installed Civ 6. Bounced off it a few times, then played some more. Mainly it feels like a Civ game, I guess?
When you're having fun in a game, have you ever taken a step back and wondered, hey, why am I playing this? If you've ever played a MMO "for real" you know what I mean... :)
Anyway, somehow Civ 6 felt just like that. I'm sure it's a good game, but I could have played Civ 2 or 4 instead, and used my money for umm, whatever.
So, as usual, this pile of words is to chase away all the lazy people and their auto-giveaway-entering scripts. Words, blah, blah, blah. Oh yeah, isn't there a script to solve puzzles now? I was intending to troll it the next time I made a giveaway, but forgot. Sorry.
Hey, I heard "Only A Northern Song" today. Figured I'd make some giveaways. No reason.
I found a "video" at https://vimeo.com/217614187 but perhaps it's blocked in various regions. Well, you know how the internet works, look around. Or don't, and just click on the FREE STUFF!!!
If you're listening to this song
You may think the chords are going wrong
But they're not
We just wrote them like that
Ladykiller in a Bind
If you're listening late at night
You may think the band are not quite right
But they are
They just play it like that
Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus
And it doesn't really matter what chords I play
What words I say
Or time of day it is
As it's only a Northern song
>observer_
It doesn't really matter what clothes I wear
What words I pair
Or if my hair is brown
'Cause it's only a Northern song
Conan Exiles
If you think the harmony
Is a little dull and out of key
You're correct
'Cause there's nobody there
Life is Strange: Before the Storm Deluxe Edition
And it's only there's no one there
Nothing At All? Deluxe Maybe Try Reading Edition
Hopefully I'll be too busy playing a game to read anything, so I won't bore you with yet another Steam Sale discussion. But if you have anything interesting to share, that would be nice. I'll try to remember to bump things if nobody else does. :)
Good luck! :)
