  • Didn't see anything this time

  • Got the refresh at 20:00:02 and it was all gone.

  • +5

    From Kinguin's facebook page and the owner: " li Grzesiek Siwiński all bots efforts has been destroyed on the go. No worries about that. We are working on modifications also to make the distribution even more random. "

    Whatever that means…

    • +3

      Adding a capcha might defeat bots, I don't see how randomness does.

    • +2

      They need some sort of verification thing for when someone clicks claim, like a captcha.

    • Probably means they got only 1 key per drop from now onwards.

      • +1

        I hope it doesn't mean random time.

        • I think they would mean randomly dropping keys during the minute and not releasing all of it on the dot.

          • @Mibo: Can confirm, read my post below. I refreshed page at 8:14 and got a key.

  • +2

    Oof, first time i didnt even notice what it was

    • +5

      Out of curiosity, what's your association with Kinguin?

      • To be honest i clicked on "?" mark when i was wirting a comment and i didnt notice that checkmark appears. Now i dont know how to get rid of it

        • Fair enough

          I just figured if you were associated you should have known what the Title was lol

        • +1

          You can ask a mod to remove if you aren't associated with it because leaving it on there without explanation can be bad :)

      • He's the best one reporting back statistics on OzBargain frustrations with each game drop.

  • No one knows what the game was this time. Lolz

  • +1

    I just claimed a key @ 8:14PM AEST It is Wargame Airland Battle Steam CD Key

    Guess they're being released throughout the hour now?

    • 8:14 whoa.. should've kept refreshing. I had a feeling it didn't drop earlier.

    • edit: nevermind

      • +1

        I refreshed page at 8:14 and it went to my inventory.

        • +1

          Thanks!

          Edit: Having them drop any time is dire for those of us who aren't scripting. Means 24/7 refreshing if its the case.

          • @brtbbq: Just a hunch - perhaps they're releasing every 15 mins? I wasn't checking the clock when I refreshed at 8:14, it could very well have been 10 seconds to 8:15.

    • +1

      Really??
      Please don't tell me they are going click Frenzy "some time between 8 and 9pm" and this was just a glitch.

      • Yeah, that would suck.

        • +1

          It's one thing when the prize is a $12 S10e or a $200 gift card for $2.
          To do it on a game that costs a few bucks would be sad.

  • +1

    Nothing again.

  • +7

    WHAT!!!
    I literally refreshed to the second and there was nothing there.

    It's going to be a random time again and thus I'm going to bow out. I have better things to do with my life than refresh a page for an hour, hoping for a game that only costs a few bucks..

  • +2

    nothing waste of time

  • +3

    nothing… wtf??

  • +3

    Yep… it's over.
    I'm out.

    • +2

      It's going to be even more of a waste of time now if they're dropping it randomly in the hour. I'm out too.

  • +1

    refreshed on the dot and nothing. Took a while to reload though
    EDIT: so apparently it's a random time in the hour

  • +3

    Yeah they must be doing a drop at a random time in the hour now… is my theory :(

    • Perfect for bots that can keep checking without effort. Hell for humans who will hate instead of love you, even in the unlikely event they get a key. Kinguin's marketing and middle management obviously requires fixing.

  • +1

    i bet there incrementing it by 1 min, this will be 9.15 :P

    • +1

      Guess I'm going to be refreshing the page for 15 minutes…

      • Think of the positive, its already been 5!

  • Boys seem to have adjusted. Website getting laggy every 5 mins.

  • No idea what it was, but im going to hold out until the magical 9:14PM.

  • NOW
    Edit: So I was just closing down a tab I had looked at it and it refreshed. Hey Presto :P

    But no really, I'm out now. There's no way I'll luck that out a second time 😂

  • Its up
    Oblivion

  • YES!! JUST GOT IT: The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion GOTY Edition Deluxe Steam CD Key!!

  • Oh my lord thank god I kept refreshing
    It was Oblivion GOTY for anyone wondering. It seems like a lot of us got this one, which is good. I'm guessing since this one was 5 minutes late, the next one will be 10 minutes.

    • The last two have been: ~14 minutes past the hour, then ~6 minutes.

      I am hoping that it's within a 15 minute window past the hour, and that the next one isn't much later.

      I love my freebies, but refreshing a page for most of an hour and possibly still missing out… the potential for rage is massive.

      • +2

        I see. In that case it might still be 10 minutes past the hour for the next one.
        They should have just added those single click authenticators like is it really that hard?

        • +2

          I can't agree enough with this. When the bots all eventually get adjusted so they just keep refreshing every second indefinitely, we'll be out of luck again.

          • @brtbbq: Exactly. At least a lot of people got Oblivion. One of the best games to be given away so far.

            • @Ostrk: Yep. Possibly the most expensive as well, at AUD$29.95 (Steam price)

  • The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion GOTY Edition Deluxe Steam CD Key
    !@!! YAY!!!

  • The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion GOTY Edition Deluxe at 9:06

  • 906pm oblivion

  • Elder Scrolls Oblivion GOTY just dropped

    • Just saw it but I wasn't logged in, then it was gone once I logged in/ :(

      • That happened to me too. Ouch.

    • Refresh just hung for me. Had to kill the browser before I could get to the page again.

      • That happened to me when Max Payne 3 came on, I'm still a bit sore about it haha.

        • I provided feedback. There was no swearing involved. But after reading what I wrote, there could be no doubt that I believe they are incompetent.

  • Got it Elder Scrolls IV Oblivion GOTY edition

  • -1

  • Oh what it was elder scrolls 4 just got it at 7:06pm Perth

  • Elder Scrolls, and I missed it by a second :( Ah well.

    • I got the previous one (before Elder Scrolls) @ 8:14PM, I would keep refreshing if I were you.
