Grabbing Kelric's SMAC. I'll post a game or two tonight when I have a better handle for what I still have at home. Oh yeah, that reminds me...

I'll put up Red Alert 2 (CD's in case with manual. No box).

Shadow Magic's yours. E-mail me your contact info.

May I have Red Alert 2?

Beauty! Email on the way.

Mr. Grundbegriff with the generous octopiff -

I'd like to give a good home to Jedi Knight 2 if it's OK with you.

I think I'm up one karma already, but I'll confirm when I find my PIFF list.

Edit: I was not up one. I was even, so I'll throw out Panzer Elite SE and Europa 1400: Gold.

E-mailez-moi your targeting info.

Setaside, I have it.
So, Setaside gets Imperium Galactica II, and Imperium Galactica is up for grabs.
Karma=+1

by **ArmyOfOne** » Tue Jan 11, 2005 9:58 am

Kestrel - I'd like to pillage your copy of Europa 1400:Gold if I may?

In return I'd like to offer Links Championship Edition. The one with Sergio Garcia on the cover.

Nice! You've got a PM with my details.

That should take me down to +10 but I'm just going to clear my karma altogether. Next game I take, I'll put up some more.

by **Kestrel** » Tue Jan 11, 2005 8:17 pm

ArmyOfOne - on it's way as soon as you PM with your address.

by **Exodor** » Thu Jan 13, 2005 4:01 pm

I've got a copy of the "original" (ie. not "Game of the Year" edition)hint book for Morrowind that I don't know what to do with. If anyone wants it, pm me and it's yours!

Since it's just the hint book, I dunno if I get karma for it or not (well, OO Karma anyway. :wink:

), but I'd rather send it to a good home than just throw it out.

by **crumsteel** » Wed Jan 19, 2005 8:17 pm

Exodor, I would be interested in that. I say +1 to your karma
I will get together some games to put up later tonight or tomorrow.

by **Exodor** » Wed Jan 19, 2005 8:50 pm

crumsteel, it's yours!

I've also go the following available:

Morrowind (CD only!)
Arcanum (CD and manual)

by **crumsteel** » Wed Jan 19, 2005 9:53 pm

Clearing out the game shelf. It's pretty much all going (the one's I don't/won't be playing) and I'm not really looking for much in trades now. Putting up some decent titles but not all at once to avoid someone grabbing them all.

First up,

Doom 3 (PC)

by **setaside** » Thu Jan 20, 2005 12:06 pm

DOOM 3!!!!!

NOT CLAIMING IT!!!!

But damn, that is a nice freebie. Thanks for putting it up. Hopefully whoever claims it will respond in kind <nudge, nudge>

I'll take it.

OK I got to put something up since I don't remember what my karma is.

Mechwarrior 4 (CD & Reference sheet only)

EDIT: Looks like I was already +1 here from by WWII Sniper so this puts me back at +1.

Unfortunately I haven't bought a "new" game for quite some time. I've become bargain shopper man (as well as console playing man).

Well since I bought Morrowind GotY Edition, I'm putting up RM9's former Morrowind and the manual.

Three people PM'd me about this. Thats pretty cool of all of you, and thanks!

Vietcong up for grabs!

Staying within the Vice City vein, I'll offer up:

True Crimes: Streets of L.A. (PC)

That would make you smack, right?

by **The Meal** » Fri Jan 21, 2005 10:28 am

Exodor, Arcanum

Exodor, I'd be interested in this, but wouldn't feel right about *claiming* it until I can get back in here with some of the games I'll never get to on my backlog. Tonight being Friday night I'm not sure that I can come back with a list right away.

So any of you other octopiffers that want Arcanum, this is your big chance to place a claim before I come back.

Thanks everyone, for the involvement. I've only done small scale octopiffage (over on that other site) in the past. Hopefully I can come up with a few games that folks'd like.

I'd like to give that one a try. Maybe it will hold me over until GTA: San Andreas hits the PC.

I'll put up Firestarter.

Arcanum is going out tonight after work, so it's now taken!

by **The Meal** » Thu Jan 27, 2005 9:43 pm

Boy, talk about pressure to put up my list...

One thing of note is that I'm going to be out of the country from 2/22 until 3/23 and won't have forum access during that time. So if there are games on my list that folks want during this time period, they're going to have to wait an inordinate amount of time before I'll be shipping.

Civilization II (CD only)
Europa Universalis (Documentation, no box, no jewel case)
** Gothic (CIBU) ** Taken by Grundbegriff on 27 Jan 05 **
NHL2002 (CIBU)
Sheep (CIBU)
Streets of Sim City (Documentation, no box, no jewel case)
Tropico (DVD case with included documentation)

That's seven games on the block, but with me claiming Arcanum that puts my total karma at +6.

~Neal (+6)

I've had my first PIFF pilfered. A PM is awaiting you in the relevant location.

Gothic is off the block.

Is it SOP for me to go and edit my list, above, to reflect that the game is taken?
