I was wondering how you guys are handling the keys from sites like humblebundle and indiegala where you first have to reveal the keys. What do you do with keys you don't use immediately, do you leave them on the site unrevealed, do you reveal them and put them in your key list or something else maybe?

I like to get every free key I can, hoard them all while laughing wickedly to myself ...

Reveal and copy to a spreadsheet with additional metadata to help me decide what do to with the keys and when.

Store in my ArchiBot's MySQL database, so I can do things like random game to give away, counting and such.

I'm unique probably.

That's actually a really cool idea. I'm currently making a system to put my backlog in, so whenever I finish a game, I can get a random game (prioritizing those that I really want to play).

Making giveaways is, in my mind, included in "using" them. And the poll is just meant for the keys you don't use immediately.

When I was trading heavily, I kept everything in an offline Excel spreadsheet, that way I could easily keep track of when I traded them, who I traded with, and what I traded for. Now that I've gotten tired of the trading game, I usually just leave them on the site.
