Sacrifice is a great fucking game. It's a classic. Have you ever even played it? No? Didn't think so.

Doorways was one I really wanted :(

I vote the the games that I would actually consider buying, and not the highest discount.

I find it pretty lame too. PC gamers hate DRM and then the game with GFWL wins over an amazing indie game (I'm talking about EYE and Bulletstorm). It really doesn't make sense to me.

I'm gonna kill someone if deadly premonition dosen't win!

I wonder who the stupid one is, the people who vote for the game they want or the person who calls them stupid.

when there are games i want to buy, i pick them, otherwise i pick the game that looks more interesting, even though i'm not buying it

Hey, I was bummed when in the first day Dust didn't win community vote, and I'm still waiting until it gets to front page. But I don't go into forums and calling everyone who voted the other game idiots.

If I vote, usually I'll pick the name which I recognize. If I don't recognize any of them then I'll choose which game has the nicest game title or icons...not gonna spare my time to check their store page unless it really interests me, sorry.

Yeah I'm pretty frustrated The Wolf Among Us lost one. I got a steam gift card for xmas and that's the only game I really want right now. But I'm sure there'll be a few more opportunities.

if there was a sticky thread topic somewhere saying vote for X I would follow it, but when 3 games come up I care nothing about I just vote without caring

I generally vote for the deal I'd buy.

I refuse to vote for anything that I've seen bundled or cheaper elsewhere.

So you think people are stupid because they want to buy different games from you? Who cares what the discount is, if someone doesn't have that game and they're willing to pay that sale price, they will vote for it, regardless if it's been on sale ten times this week already, maybe they missed out. Your attitude sucks and I feel sorry for you.

Ha. You are funny. For one second, I actually thought you were seriously calling me a mindless idiot.

But here, for the record: I actually voted for both Sacrifice and Braid. I played them both, and thought they were awesome, so the thought that people could get them even cheaper makes me happy (even if the discount wasn't that much more than the usual one).

Sorry it is not what you wanted. You can go back to hating me now, if it makes you feel better. :P

Cheers!

I vote for either the one I'd buy if I had lots of spare money, or the one I own and enjoy.

Dat dere cheapest price be winning most of the time regardless of quality of game or percentage of discount. Just saying.

Often these things are a matter of opinion, but having just seen Civilization V win by a large margin, I am inclined to think a fair few community choice voters are not that well informed. With thousands of keys out there from the GMG/CVG giveaway, you could probably trade Super Hexagon for it over on Steamtrades, yet people are still excited about paying £5 ($7.50?) for it. Hopefully the Gold upgrade will go on sale at 75% off too, which should be worth something to someone, but I doubt that that was what most people were thinking when casting their vote.

I hope people vote for Tetrobot & Co. in the current community vote as it has not been more than 50% off thus far, so it's a significant savings. It's a sequel to Blocks That Matter, which was quite an enjoyable puzzle game from a wonderful developer -- who even added Steam workshop to the game despite it being more of an aging "budget" title. Besides, Universe Sandbox has been 75%-80% off many times I'm sure and World of Goo the same -- plus it's bundle fodder.

STOP FUCKING VOTING FOR THE OPTION I DON'T LIKE, FOR FUCKS SAKE!!!

now with caps unlocked for extra power!!

Anyways, I guess many people vote like I do. If I don't plan to buy any of the games I just vote randomly. I just want the card. So, cry a little more

The voting has really made me lose some faith in the Steam community. A lot of the time it looks like a really good indie game that is actually a decent enough of a name popularity wise that will lose to a game that has been on sale for the same price several times.

Worst one IMO was Machinarium winning with 75% off price tag to Paranautical Activity with 88% off. I know this isn't a case of popular names, but Machinarium was part of a Humble bundle and has been 75% off so many times before. Almost everyone with interest in the game already owns it by now, and many people who don't have any interest in it at all already own it too...

Hey grow up and stop crying cause everyone didnt agree with you. Its easier to just blame everyone around you and label them as stuid if they dont vote the same way you do i guess.

Sucks for you. More Snowglobes I don't care for, for me!

Bite your tongue! Sacrifice is a classic and totally deserved to win. I'm one of the people who voted for it, and I bought it during the sale (even though I already own it) because I wanted to have it on Steam.

"EDIT: so the conclusion is the majority of the voters are just mindless idiots who don't even care about the games that go in the voting and click randomly just to get some cards. DERP!"

Really?

Grow the hell up.

As many have already stated, I vote for a random game unless there is one that I plan to buy. If that makes me a mindless idiot what does that make you for coming to such a conclusion?
