Nice?
Well that was fast. I guess Meadow attracted a lot more people than they were expecting.

Wow, I checked the reviews and there's someone who played it for 512 hours and many others for tens of hours and they recommended it so it must be some truth about it being that good, thereby explaining the reaction to it being given away for free.

From the looks of it they're already out of keys for Meadow but they still give the DRM free edition so you still have time to get it even if you miss The Tiny Bang Story.

Are you sure about the DRM free edition for Meadow? I doesn't show up for me.
Anyway, I was also late to the party and missed out on my Steam key although I "claimed" the game. Bummer because I had it wishlisted too. This is actually one of the reasons I was and am against SG allowing giveaways of free games during their promotional runs. I mean those people who grabbed the key (some even multiple copies!) to give away here had their part in this :(

Same here, Meadow is WL game and I missed out on a key for it. :( No DRM free version anywhere either. ;( New this was gonna happen, am always late to the party when it comes to good WL Giveaways, AW included.

I don't see the DRM free entry anymore in my HB library so I assume it was a glitch. It was there earlier today but not anymore so I don't know.

I checked again and it disappeared from my DRM free library so I assume it was a fluke. I clearly saw it in there earlier today so I don't know what that was about.

All 3 dlc for Meadow added to Shelter Complete Edition

If you own Shelter: The Heart Edition, you get Shelter 2: Mountain DLC, Meadow, and Paws: A Shelter 2 Game added to your library.

Complete Edition gets all of the soundtracks and art added too.

I own Shelter: The Heart Edition and they didn't add Mountain DLC nor Paws: A Shelter 2 game to my library.
Comment has been collapsed.
Sorry to hear that. I know they added Paws to mine. I already had Mountain and I got Meadow from the Humble mission a couple of days ago. I even downloaded Paws, played a little, got the cards, and sold them. You've checked your steam licenses and activations under your Steam account details for the Shelter: The Heart Edition package?

Depending on when you visit their site you might get one or the other stamp. For instance, if you visited before 10am PDT you got the stamp for Day 3 and after 10am PDT the stamp for Day 4. Therefore this might explain the missing stamp.
Otherwise, make sure that when visiting the store you click the collect button and then go to the rewards page and make sure the stamp is visible on that page. If not, redo the process. You can also try with another browser.

Thanks for the heads up, but I did everything you said. I got my first one on day 1, then for 2 days - nothing, even though I tried. Today I got the 2nd one, but it looks like I'm going to end up with only 4 out of 5 this way.
I'm using firefox browser btw.

Hey no more keys for the games from round 1 although I claed them on time???
Pro Tip: Always reveal your keys and save them elsewhere for later use. Otherwise, things like this can happen.
Comment has been collapsed.
Same here, sigh, should have revealed them on time, but I thin The Ship was already out when I got it the last day, don't know if it ever got restocked
Comment has been collapsed.
Open a ticket and their support might help you in that case.
Comment has been collapsed.
yeah,
keys for "The Tiny Bang Story" on sale right now, 4000 keys on one site, 1000 on another.
With those "generous" farmers I will not surprised if humble one day will completely remove keys and only direct activation will left.
Still wonder how someone can get permanent suspension on steamgifts and continue making profits on steamtrades :O
Comment has been collapsed.
For things they give away for free.
I would not mind if they do it like that.
After all it is a promotion intended to do something in the given timeframe, nothing else.
Only for bundles i would mind if they would shift in handling things this way.
Comment has been collapsed.
that's not a big site, and I won't post direct link here.
I could tell that site owner - same guy who stole developer keys for geocore
https://www.steamgifts.com/discussion/DP1f3/psa-geocore-keys-being-revoked
He has permanent suspension on sg and +249 rep on steamtrades xD
And yes, he got >4000 keys for each game in this giveaway
Comment has been collapsed.
It looks like he has 4000+ HumbleBundle users, and he farms free games and sells them for cheap.
He charges pennies for each game (much less than grey market sites).
And he has his own store - which means he can afford his own domain + servers, so he probably has his own mail server (under his domain) and can issue himself as many email addresses as he wants.
Still I doubt he's the reason the game keys ran out - he also has many other game keys from HumbleBundle (4,200+ WH4K:Space Marine keys) and none of the others ran out...
Comment has been collapsed.
i dont think that there's only one guy who got hundreads or even thousands keys. That just one example, i believe there are more. And if we have 10 people with script that allowes to get thousands keys in one click - humble will "run out of keys" pretty fast xD

he also has many other game keys from HumbleBundle (4,200+ WH4K:Space Marine keys) and none of the others ran out...
Also most of these keys don't end up in grey market stores, so obviously there is not much money in them (he sells each key for less than 10 cents)...

The Tiny Bang Story
Keys are temporarily exhausted for this product
As soon as we receive more keys, we will add them to this page and send you an email.
Comment has been collapsed.
The Tiny Bang Story. I'll try and win it. If not, then its on sale for another couple days and I have some HB credit.
It seems Meadow as given to those of us already who had Shelter. So when I get that reward I will give it away at some point to someone who missed it.
Comment has been collapsed.
Hmmh I wonder how you and a few others got Meadow for free directly, I iwn both Shelter 1 and 2 and didn't get it.
Comment has been collapsed.
I'm just going by the above notes in a comment. In my case I bought Shelter 2. Then won "Shelter: The Heart Edition" here giving me the first game as well. The devs added Meadow to my Library at some point as its not on my speadsheet. I do not have any DLC for it. I have one DLC for Shelter 2. I think I may have had it before. Don't have the others or any for Shelter. So I'm guessing there was various packs and you got some extras depending on what you already had.
I don't see Meadow directly on my licenses page so I assume its part of a pack I own.
I don't have it from HB. But I will before this round is over. It will then be given out at some point likely as a no cv GA to someone who missed it during the current HB giveaway.

Then won "Shelter: The Heart Edition"
Because that isn't just Shelter 1, it's a pack of four games

Some russian stole all the free keys and is reselling them.
But then of course it's HB fault if we're not getting free stuff anymore.
Comment has been collapsed.
The solution I see is invalidating all unused keys, or if necessary even revoking all these 2 HB games from accounts, and then issuing new keys to people that got the reward fair and square.
I'm sure some people bought games to get these stamps after all so that would be fair to do, but no, I'm sure that's too much work for HB to do, as well as having proper security against key hacks.
Comment has been collapsed.
Revoking all those keys would get even more hate for HB from people who bought them on those shady sites, not to mention the possibility of revoking even legitimately acquired keys. At this point, they'll get flak either way.
Comment has been collapsed.
As I said, issuing new keys to everyone who got stamps legitimately. If you bought it from shady sites or traded for it with one of these russian hackers, you have no right to complain as HB isn't to blame for that. Us who earned the stamps legitimately would finally be able to get a key for the game and play it, instead of needing to go and trade for it with the very people who stole the keys!
Comment has been collapsed.
Yes, of course it's HB fault.
They are responsible of the security of their own website.
Comment has been collapsed.
Stealing giftlinks is easy since once you make it the URL is open for anyone to guess it and take the key. That is why I SUGGEST NOT MAKING giftlinks in advance.
I am not aware if they have some algorithm to stop abuse of that random guessing of GL URL
Comment has been collapsed.
Well as far as I know (correct me if I am wrong) but for IG you put in email straight away right?
Well for HB most people cr8 a gift link that they give to a person and they put the email in it, meaning that anyone can guess the URL in the mean time b4 he enters his email.
When you put the email of the subject of the gift in HB you cant rly steal it anymore unless they hack your HB profile.
So if you ask me people stealing gift links maybe more on the person who went with that option and not a direct email gift..
Comment has been collapsed.
With IG you can also gift them directly to an email and you get the link and pass on that email.
For HB you just need an email to redeem it, but once it's created there is no protection, and direct links (after the GL has been redeemed, you can get a link directly to the key) don't need an email to access.
I don't think HB has a direct gifting option. Their support has to deny there is a giftlink stealing issue, and pretend someone accessed your account and rather than steal revealed and unrevealed keys, only created GLs are stolen.
Comment has been collapsed.
Not really. It's just a second code to copy.
There are also many ways to do it, and at the very least they should add a warning to only generate links just before you give them to someone. Just because we know there's an issue and account for it doesn't mean HB can't do better.
sometimes gift password doesnt even come with the mail
It gets sent to your email when you try to access it without the password. Old emails would obviously not have it, so you get a new one sent when you try to access the link (happened to me).
Comment has been collapsed.
After redeeming gift-link you get new link to page with key (downloads?key=).
I have just checked it in incognito mode - no Humblebundle account is required to access that page.
There is option "Delete this order" (I have never used it), so possible workaround is to save key somewhere and delete page.
Comment has been collapsed.
I'm still missing 2 stamps, even though I started collecting on day 1. For 2 (!) days I failed to receive anything.
I don't know if it's my browser's fault or something else, but it's disappointing. It also happened on the first round.
And how come The Tiny Bang Story disappeared as a possible reward?
Comment has been collapsed.
Read above. Some asshat stole thousands of keys for reselling.
Comment has been collapsed.
I'm worried. They have been without keys for Meadow for 2 days now and I fear I won't be able to get it before the key redemption period ends
Also nice, wanted Tiny Bang Story for a long time but now ebcause a dumb asshole they removed it as a reward
Comment has been collapsed.
i don't think there is a redemption time. they just do that for their plain free games, not for sales rewards.
Comment has been collapsed.
I've thought I'll get The Tiny Bang Story myself... I guess it's time remove it from hidden games and try to win it...

i don't have meadow so was going to get it from daily stamps, oh well.
