I can't get too wired up about this, but it is kinda weird to see that some people are still getting their keys just moments after voting and yet I still get informed that I haven't even voted yet, even though I did so several hours ago. The redeeming system in general could use some work.

Do you have checkmarks by all of the categories? Some of my votes won't register.

Looks like I were lucky to finish it before all this load came... :D Now I am just waiting for CVG to register and GMG to give me my game! :)

Remember maybe it takes time, but free is better than none.

It's not only them, really. Raptr has the same shit every time there's a limited freebie offered, the first Groupees and Royale bundles got this when they announced their first bundle with release dates included, and I could go on and on about it. How come Humble didn't even crash with their first one? (They didn't, right?)

Let me remind you that the first Humble Bundle wasn't nearly as popular as it is now.

Still earned a million dollars... That's pretty popular by default.

Hey guys, I have an idea! If you encounter the Internal Server Error, refresh the page a metric fuckton...it helps! THEN make a post about it on SteamTrades!

"You have not voted in any categories yet... Get started now!"

I got this message after submitting my votes, so I voted for everything again, and got the message again. Anyone know what to do?

Isn't the wait supposed to be to get your code, not for it to acknowledge that you've voted?

Yeah, the context for that quote is to get your code from GMG. I haven't gotten there yet.

you have to make sure there are check marks next to each section. try using the "go back" button, not the "try again". that's what I had to do.

Each category has a check mark when I select something, but it goes away when I view another category.

Edit: Yes, I have cookies enabled.

Ok, this seems to be a problem with Firefox on OSX. It's working in Chrome.

Edit: It looked like it was working in Chrome, but now my check marks are appearing and disappearing randomly. It's like trying to play wack-a-mole except I have to hit all of the moles at the same time, and most of them aren't popping up because of server errors.

Edit 2: It's randomizing who I'm logged in as, which is why the check marks are changing. WTF???

Two weeks ago Gamefly was doing a "Buy one, get Maria II free" deal, it looks like they're giving it away all over the place, so I expect it see it in a bundle too.

Or maybe they really just want DLC sales.

Don't click on the submit votes button under the categories, that thing doesn't seem to work, it gives an instant error. When you get the error page, click on the first hyperlink that says something like "Try again here". It will take you to a page where it has your email and a drop box to select your country along with a big SUBMIT VOTES button, that button actually works. Might hang a few times and give an error, but it eventually submitted my votes.
