Will you buy this BE MINE bundle??
New Be Mine already? Well, i guess there is where my groupees coins will go if bundle turns out to be good, don't have money for at least next 20 days to make blind preorders.

New Be Mine already?
+1
Last one was pretty darn good, though (in fairness, largely due to the coin), so here's hoping it continues with that.

Really? Only good game from the last one was gemini, and fire was a pretty disappointing reveal
Comment has been collapsed.
Regardless of how you ( or I ) felt about the individual games, Gemini, Fire, and Masterplan were all high-demand (Fire actually perhaps most of all), and there was decent interest in A-Gents and Link as well. Moreover, the coin made the bundle free in the long run.
It was a pretty solid bundle, by the numbers.
Comment has been collapsed.
Hmm really? Only gemini kept receiving trade offers ever since the release for me so regardless of how either of us feel, the market doesn't seem to want the other games much.
Comment has been collapsed.
I traded well (and with high demand) for Masterplan and Fire.
Gemini got over-saturated by the duplicate keys (since both were ROW-activatable, and essentially identical), and ended up trading lower in the long run.
Of course, the difference appears to in part be your trading medium differing from my own, though the two games were also the most popular in giveaways prior to the bundle (by comments), within the bundle's chat, and among contacts I spoke to about the bundle.
The demand may waver by location, but that doesn't somehow negate overall demand being high [compared to most bundled games].

I have to agree with Lanzwinter, Gemini was the standout for the last Be Mine. Masterplan would've been nice if it hadn't already been in a Humble monthly. The rest of the games were ok, but not good enough to make it a decent bundle. If it weren't for Gemini I probably would've passed on it. I'm a fan of Heroes/Heroes Reborn so that was enough for me to buy it (plus it was on my wishlist which is rare), but I can see why it wouldn't have as much appeal for others.

Be Mines aren't risks though, for me they're always a given to preorder.

Yaaaay! Pre-ordering as soon as it goes up for pre-order :)

Will wait for hints, but since it's a Be Mine, I will probably preorder.

When a person cries and the first drop of tears come from the right eye, its happiness. if it from left eye, it’s pain.

Not trying to be disrespectful towards Rachel, but that is just a quote, it's not true.

Quoting Dr. Jerry Nolfi, co-founder of Toronto Eye Care Optometric Clinic
Based on my knowledge of the tearing system there appears to be no logical reason for each eye to discriminate its tearing function based on the emotional stressor/stimuli. I just don’t see it and the statement must be a myth.
Comment has been collapsed.
It's probably not true. I have rather sensitive (to wind, light, and other stimuli, not exceptional perception unfortunately) eyes and often look like I'm crying, and the eye is irrelevant; I've had one or both eyes just start watering my face for no reason because of wind/cold before, completely disconnected from my emotional state.

Also, collected a few (possible?) hints from chat:
cyanicGroupees HQ22:53
Uh... um... 100% positive game with not insignificant number of reviews? [not sure if this is really a hint, there's no context]
JonnyBotGroupees HQ22:57
8 games, possibly 9
cyanicGroupees HQ23:22
Most likely Tuesday launch, provided there's no confusion among the game devs.

can I preorder this bundle with the coin i got from the previous Be Mine Bundle?
Comment has been collapsed.
No. Coins can't be used until AFTER bundles go live. Not for preorders.
Comment has been collapsed.
I have a question about coins... when you purchase using coins, do you get to choose which coin(s) you wish to use? Like, it doesn't just choose one for you, does it? And, can you combine them with some other form of payment?
Comment has been collapsed.
You can choose the coins and yes, you can combine them with other payment forms.
Comment has been collapsed.
precisely. you will get to choose which coin you want to use
edit: my dearest friend tzaar explains "when you go to payment options, it lists your coins on the left side, and you click a coin to add it to the payment options. i think if you hover over the coins (not 100% sure on this one), it will even tell you how much each coin is worth so you can choose better"
And I assume you will pay the difference of whatever the cost is, assuming the coin doesn't meet the entire value. However, i think you can also elect to use more than one coin to cover the entire cost, if i'm not mistaken.
Comment has been collapsed.
Ok, thank you, Rachel. My questions were probably silly, but I wasn't sure. I've never tried using them. Personally, I don't much like the coin system right now. I have a few coins that are worth much more than most of the bundles, so, I have yet to find anything to spend them on. I'm not going to waste a $25 coin on a $2 bundle, and I have little interest in the comic bundles (which seem to be the most expensive). Hope they implement more ways to use the coins... like being able to split the coins, or buy multiple bundles.
Comment has been collapsed.
That would make the coins too useful so it's unlikely to happen
Comment has been collapsed.
Yeah. I'm sure people would end up abusing it anyway, like they do everything else. ):
Comment has been collapsed.
nah not silly at all! (not as silly as "What does BTA mean? or "How come i can't preorder yet? is the bundle over? (when the title clearly says "starts soon")) But I have yet to use the coin system myself ... i probably should start using them, but i end up just using another method of payment for convenience
Comment has been collapsed.
Meh... Maybe, Maybe not.
0% interest in "Who's Your Daddy", and still feel burned by the last BM.
MAYBE if it was a fluctuating coin, and doesn't have a silly price again...
The coin was the best part of BM25, already at $1.20
Comment has been collapsed.
Hey, by fluctuating does it mean it changes value over time?
Comment has been collapsed.
Fluctuating coins increase in value over time based on the amount of them that get used.
Be Mine 25 gave a $1 Fluctuating coin, and since only barely over 6000 copies were sold, that's only 6000 coins.
As more coins get sold, the value of the coin increases, as said, its already at $1.20 for the BM25 Coin.
As far as I know coins are never "re-used". So effectively, the longer you keep them, the higher their value.
Some of the earliest used coins are now valued upwards of $20 if you are one of the few to have kept them.
Though, its my understanding that a coin is used in full. A $5 coin used to buy a $2 bundle will lose the excess $3.
Not all coins are fluctuating. Some are fixed value.
Comment has been collapsed.
"So effectively, the longer you keep them, the higher their value."
This is true, however this doesn't work in the event that everyone decided to just keep their fluctuating coins. But that's not likely to happen.
Comment has been collapsed.
I gave away all but Fire (which haven't played yet to comment) and Gemini, if I had traded them, might have thought differently, else I usually don't buy even HumbleBundles unless I'm going to be using at least three games, even if the rest get given away, which often do, or more recently, traded.
I basically had just the one game from BM25 that was of interest, with a potential second. If anything, I'm more happy for the coin. BM26 isn't off the table, but unless there's more hints tomorrow, or confirmation of another coin, I'll pass.
Still... at least this time they're not sitting on their hands for nearly a week before even putting up a pre-order date. That pissed off a lot of people in the chat. And for my second ever purchase at Groupees, and the first Be Mine, (last purchase was Carlmageddon nearly or over a year ago) I didn't exactly walk away with a good experience.
In future, I may well be happy buying bundles regardless of contents, but I have a very very small budget for games. So just a personal thing that I didn't like it, and especially didn't like Super Neo Pug being in the $4.50 Tier when it would have added so much more value in the $1.
Comment has been collapsed.
You can preorder their bundles as a gift, and if you're not happy with the contents there's always going to be someone who'll regret missing the preorder and would happily buy it from you
Comment has been collapsed.
I might just do that... because the Who's Your Daddy guess doesn't look too inspiring to me.
Comment has been collapsed.
Officially, its not, but the guesses from BM25 turned out to be correct.
Who's Your Daddy guess

I'm slacking. I missed a new bundle thread.
Hmm, could use a hint or two before deciding for sure, but since it's be mine, it's a definite "probably?" :X
Comment has been collapsed.
Excellent. The last one was ace, although the wait got to be a bit much.
Comment has been collapsed.
I'll probably use the coin i got from the last one if it looks decent, probably won't pre-order this time though! :)
Comment has been collapsed.
I'm really not sure. I wasn't exactly happy with the last one...

weak hints. But I'll buy it if it's jsut $1.5 preorder. Anything higher will need better hints
Comment has been collapsed.
As long as I've been coming here I have always taken note of your rude comments and miserly attitude.
Hope you're able to scrape together that extra dollar, MDuh.
Comment has been collapsed.
this comment was so outdated since this was when the only hint was the who's your daddy game. Already pre-ordered 2. if you're wondering.
Thanks for exposing you blacklisted me though. As if I care since since I barely get any games here anymore
Comment has been collapsed.
Groupees, y u do dis to me? Don't tempt me, I'm outta bundle-money for this month T_T
Now tbh, I'll be waiting for more hints, not really interested in that game. Worst case scenario, I have a coin that I could use to mitigate the impact on my budget for games.

Rofl! They really like the joke games in the bundles, eh? ;p
Well, it's sad for a Be Mine.. But I don't own either of the two guesses so can't complain. And even though "Who's Your Daddy?" looks like shit, it could be fun with friends. I was laughing a lot when watching Smosh Games play it^^
Comment has been collapsed.
Yeah it's a crappy game but it is fun with friends. Tried it with a friend yesterday and couldn't stop laughing. Still.. if this is the standout game it is very sad. Guess we'll have to wait and see

^^ good you had fun! And yeah, I hope there will be something magnificent.. Especially since it's a) Be Mine, b) higher pre-order price

Theres a 'create your own adventure'-ish game, unbundled, so that got me interested.
