Hey everyone, it looks like we're experiencing a few issues, so I'll try to address them.

  1. Incorrect pricing. Steam is sending us incorrect data for a wide variety of games. It appears some are fixed tonight, but a number of others are still bugged. Two options to resolve the problem. We either wait for Steam to correct the prices, and they'll be automatically updated along with CV on SG, or we manually start overriding Steam data. I'll wait another hour as I work on other updates, and if they're still not corrected, I'll start manually adjusting prices.

  2. SteamGames.com. First off, this domain is owned by Valve and has been for quite some time. SG pulls data every hour, and for unknown reasons the Steam store has been linking to the occasional game at SteamGames instead of SteamPowered. Looking at our database, this has happened with about 500 games slowly throughout the past few days. They show up with the wrong link for a brief moment, and then they're fixed the following hour. This is causing a lot of duplicate entries in the giveaway list, and if you select the wrong game (nearly impossible to tell the difference looking only at the list), the giveaway appears with no image, links to SteamGames.com, allows users that own the game to enter, and a number of other little problems. I'll fix the updates and the giveaway list in the next hour. If you created a giveaway using the duplicate game, there's no need to delete it, I'll be switching them over to the correct version once the list is corrected.

Edit: Giveaway list and giveaways created using the duplicate game entries have been fixed. A number of price bugs for popular giveaways have been corrected, but a few others remain at the moment.

Was wondering why there were giveaways for a ton of copies of Commander Keen for 70p each when it's on sale for like a dollar in the steam store lol

(and why my points went up by 200+ in the last hour)

Lol, did people really start to create a lot of GA's for that? They should know there is no CV advantage by that, at least, not lasting. :P

Edit: 10 still open, so I am gonna try my luck on it. :D

Always amazing how much people join the CV bandwagon, even if they will turn out with just regular CV in the end. Not saying that everyone created it for just that. Well, it does give us a chance on winning those games eh.
