I think the higher your level the better chance you have to earn those free booster packs. So yea more cards = more chances to get a foil or something to sell.

From the FAQ:

How is the number of owned games calculated?
The Steam API gives us the number of games you have ever played.

Yes, offcourse i play them or try to, hopefully most or all, but sometimes when you get older time can fly like crazy, and it depends if you become 70 or 100 (in a healthy way), i dunno.

I have 600 games installed, but for every one you finished, 10 new ones came with bundles, but i think (especially with Humble) the real big bundle hausse is over, even fanatical became better beside the mystery ones, but less frequent.

It's better to ask the question, what is the point of having badges? Atleast i get entertainment out of the games, badges don't.

When you login, check your profile and on the right part is games stats.

Or https://steamladder.com/ladder/games/nl/ (and replace nl with your country code).

Very nice giveaways. I've loved all of those games. (I'm sure I'll love Shadow of Mordor too, when I get to it).

I don't know. I searched imgur for "this means something" and it was either this or Close Encounters of the Third Kind. So I went with weird and funny. Coincidentally, subjects are in a circle around one like the OP picture.

It certainly means something to someone. :D

Someone had to train the dogs to do that, and so there was a thought behind it for sure. But the guy saluting in the back just gets me.

What does that mean though? I have never bothered with badges, so I don't really understand them. Is that for who made the most badges?

Gratz :) ... bur what's happened in December of 2020, that so many folks stopped crafting badges, you including? Or is the page faulty? It's weird to see, that out of 250 top folks on Steam only 3 have crafted any badge in the past 12 months.

you can only craft the badge once by gifting 1 steam award, after that it goes up by 1 level for every award you give away

I think it's when giving/receiving awards were implemented. Surely googling will answer it, but I'm lazy now.

the last crafted thing is when everyone 1st crafted the badge.
with other badges it updates every time you level up, not with this one
you can click Activity for each player and see when they last crafted
i dont do it anymore, stopped caring. just sell everything
ever since steam announced they are shit canning windows 7 and forced this new awful bloatware ui on us, stopped buying anything from them.
right now got 45$ from selling off cards.

You got 40th rank worldwide for giving your points away? Now that's something cool to brag about.
Better than stockpiling games and idling them for cards, that's for sure :P

And since I know you, I also know you're not one of those trolls giving away jester awards to everyone who posts something you don't like so you're #1 on the damn ladder for me.

I wish there was a valid "playtime stats". Everyone knows most of that is just bs idling.
Still, I'm happy to be in the top 5%

^^^ yeah. also steam deck doesn't add a single second of playtime when offline and all the achievements are earned at the same time when you go online.
if you want to you can no cheat legit 100% a game, earn every single achievement at once, and refund it back to the store.
reported the problem ages ago and nothing has been done yet

That's pretty impressive, especially when taking into account the number of users on Steam.

I did update it, they're still down when compared with the last time I checked a few months ago. I don't really care that much about most of my rankings but there's a chance I'll be kicked from a certain group when they realize I'm no longer in the top 50 of games owned in my country, I'm in no rush to reach the 5K+ badge tho, my backlog is already too large as it is :P

Yeah, it sucks that they're dropping W7, the day they drop support for W10 I'm just switching to Linux and not looking back, no way I'm gonna install the piece of crap that is W11.

I've actually been doing most of my gaming on an under-powered laptop for the last couple of years so a lot of more demanding games have been relegated to my backlog, on the one hand it means that I've been playing more adventure games that ever in my whole life but on the other one I haven't played a AAA title in a long time.
