" Oooooooo That message was pretty damned funny. Some apparently if people buy the Potato Sack we'll get Portal 2 earlier. hrmmmm "

GLaDOS@Home... clever valve...

Play the games in the potato sack. 

Ok so it looks like we need potatoes to get the game early. I've got some of those games already but how do I acquire potatoes?

buy 13 games, play them lots to push through early steam unlock?

Clever way of doing it.

LOL 120K to 75K potatoes left in just 5 minutes, we may get this early release in just a few more ^ ^. 

" Oh now that is interesting! The amount of potatoes earned by all steam users reduces the time of release it seems. "

Well I was gonna buy Meat Boy anyway.

That was a bit anticlimactic.

How does one "earn potatoes"?

Just play the games in the potato pack?

It's smart, and it's great to see Valve supporting Indie developers but I dunno, the package doesn't contain enough of what I'm interested in to purchase. Already own two of them. 

" Ok so it looks like we need potatoes to get the game early. I've got some of those games already but how do I acquire potatoes? "

Quick! Someone gift me one of the games in that sack since I´m unable to buy games on steam!

Only joking of course. I was expecting a bit more but a cool idea nonetheless.

Oh we have to play the games? Epic re-install time go!

I'll pass and wait 3 more days tbh

After seeing the result of that countdown, there is only one picture that springs to my mind:

" Someone just post a list of how to get potatoes here stat! "

Having said what I said, I do own Audiosurf and enjoy it a great deal, so I guess it's time to play a lot of Audiosurf.

" Someone just post a list of how to get potatoes here stat!  What was the potato for Amnesia again? "

I own SMB! on Steam, but didn't buy it through the Potato Sack. Can I still contribute, or are they only available through that?

Seriously! I own many of these games already. I feel like I just got bullied. Lame.

Aw man, this'll eat up my evening. 

From the thinkwithportals blog:

Audiosurf potato is an odd one. Recommended to use a song called Icy Murderous I, which Audiosurf changes to a Portal remix (that's pretty awesome). Completed it but nothing happened so maybe not doing something right? 

Love how everyone is suddenly playing these games on my Steam list, people want Portal 2. 

EDIT: You need a gold medal on the song in Audiosurf apparently.

Make a profile called Casbah. After that I think the password is troubledmemories "

I have a copy of Amnesia if anyone wants it

Sweet! I don't have the pack, but I'd love for some early Portal 2. People who own the pack get on it!
*Just bought the pack, Valve just loves taking my money D:.

" I have a copy of Amnesia if anyone wants it "

Seems that collecting most of the potatoes is really challenging. Especially since everywhere that has a guide seems to be down.

Question: Do we have to get the potatoes or is it just playing the games? Some sites are saying you just have to play them games. Anyone know for sure?

potatoes seem to be multipliers to me

" Question: Do we have to get the potatoes or is it just playing the games? Some sites are saying you just have to play them games. Anyone know for sure? "

Apparently the rumor is if you can collect all the potatoes in the games than you might get something extra. I'm still looking for additional confirmation on that one though.

Does anyone know if I have to actually have Killing Floor to be able to play the song Icy Murderous I in Audiosurf?

Posted this in the other thread, but I'm gifting a few of the games I have left over from my Potato Sack purchase to those who would play them. Please don't PM me, just reply here, and I will help out my fellow Bomblings. I have left:
