Jake's lazy treasure hunt

Post by Jake55778 » 03 May 2011, 04:12

I was browsing my steam games the other day when I realised I still have several unsent gifts on my account. Some of them have been there for months now, I clearly don't have enough PC gaming friends.

I have:
The original Portal
Half Life 2: Episode 1
& two copies of Trine

My first thought was: "Well I'll just give them away on the forums, I don't need them and they might make others happy"
My second thought was: "Nah, I'll make the lazy bums work for 'em. That'll be more entertaining"
And so I endervoured to build 4 shrines in each of the four quadrants of world 3. Each built to symbolise an element: fire, water, sky & earth, and in each I'll place a code representing one of the games. And the shrines will be built of diamond! And be 50 blocks tall! And...

...and it turns out I'm too lazy for any of that, so I just put all four codes together in my house. Being an antisocial recluse, I don't believe I've shown anybody where exactly I live, so it should still be a challenge.

The first 4 people to find it and post ONE of the codes in here (along with an email address to send the game) will win the corresponding game. First come, first served, so don't post a code if the game's already been taken. Mods are naturally ineligable to compete.

Here's what you're looking for:

Hmm, I would take part, but Steam hasn't been working for me for a while. :(

Well you could easily find out where I live I'm sure. Where's the fun in that?

Besides you mods get more than enough perks to compensate for being left out of the occational competition.

That offends me in a vague, non-specific way, and because of this, and despite the fact I have an insane amount of excellent, enviable perks due to my position, I'm going on strike.

That was faster than expected. Well done.

By the way in order to send it, I either need an email address, or to have you on my friends list. I'll send an invite since that's probably easiest.

It's on a hill, near a desert biome. It's harder to spot coming from spawn because there are trees in the way.
