TremorGames is gone.

Open
MistMD

As of a few minutes ago,the TremorGames website is officially unaccesible.

It goes without saying that a lot of people here-including myself-have used that website to grow their library or to give them away on SG.Sometimes substantially.I myself have redeemed Middle-Earth:Shadows of Mordor,Napoleon:Total War,Arkham Asylum/City and a bunch of other games over there before the site glitched out on me and I wasn't able to log in anymore (a common enough bug over there,I'm afraid).

Rest in Peace,TG.You weren't perfect but we'll sure as hell miss you.

If long time ago means before January 2018 you should have got them sent by email. For ones after that I don't think there's a way to get our keys :(

Oh, well that sucks ^^
I used a lot of coins I had left yesterday and didn't get the keys, so I'm also trying to find a way to log in with some browser tricks, but no luck so far.

In another thread someone (who knows a lot more about web stuff) found out that the server with the list of everyone's items is still up, and you can access it with http://www.tremorgames.com/achievements/ajax_show_useritems.php?userid=X&limitstart=0 if you replace the X with your user ID number (find it in your browser history). It should also show the keys there if you are logged in, so I was hopeful that there's a way. But it is impossible to log in now, unless you know what code their servers expect you to send them... maybe if you know a hacker it can be done xD
But yeah, I've given up now :(

I just saw that thread too, well we can only hope someone does find a way, but yeah, we should give up the chance to recover the keys :S

Well, I had still a page open when the site went down, I could see the orders, but the keys were gone, so even if there is a way to log in on that link I don't think that it will be possible to get the keys :(

Being from Greece I was never able to use it, but still many ppl did, its always a shame when a site with at least some good history goes away...

Damn. Well it was a nice ride while it lasted. Got a lot of el cheapo games I was curious about, picked up a bunch of games to give away. Got a bit slim pickings after the bots were shit down, but I'll still miss TG.

Never used the site as it won't even let me make an account but nevertheless, a sad loss for those that do.

Tried Gamesbolt today. Seems like you need to do around 5 surveys to get a decent game. While in Tremor you could get a cool indie title with just 1. Thanks to some SG threads I knew about TG. It helped a lot.

Without checking all the other similar sites I´m pretty sure none of them is as good as Tremor, even If the HB games sometimes were pricey. After all It was a business. A good one imo.

A business model which should be repeated by someone else. I'm surprised this isn't the case, sadly.

Someone should revive Tremor Games model, automate it and gains passive money every month. It amazes me how nobody with skill does it.

It's not so much about skill, more about finding reliable partners. All those ad-based rewards websites out there basically rely on the same offerwalls which are all notorious for being unreliable. Either they don't pay users, or they don't pay the website or there's users who are deliberately cheating (doing offers twice, using fake data etc.). It's a cutthroat business. If you had followed the news on Tremor's forums back then, they repeatedly had to shut down certain offerwalls because they weren't paid or introduce restrictions because of users cheating. Actually I'm surprised that Tremor lasted this long - I am not surprised nobody else picked up their business model yet.
