Diggle Nog is Diggle egg, grog, and aqua vitae. If you start as pirate and alchemy you'll spawn with grog, aqua vitae, and the alchemical kit. Then just go find a diggle egg and craft the nog for a quick achievement. I earned a chunk of coal 🙁 makes up for the free game I started with I guess.

How do you start as a pirate? I didn't see that as a choice.

How do I get this achieve in psychonauts? I read somewhere I need a fire power of some sort? I never played this game before. I got some button after the tutorial area but I can't find it but I found where it goes. :/

You need to reach level 10 to unlock Pyrokinesis. When you have that, burn a squirrel and a bird and eat the food.

Hit up the Steam forum for the game. There is a thread there and a person has a save filed uploaded so you can DL it and do it pretty quick. Just need to use pyro whatever it is called to catch the animals on fire. Also, turn your OS's calendar to the 25th and buy something in the store (the store is to your right when you load up the save file) to unlock the other achievement.

Here is a wiki page setup to deal with a lot of these winter achievements, a lot have videos. I'll add it to the OP as well.

I should probably stop thinking that I have all of the games that I could want from Steam. I didn't buy anything yesterday, but I got Tropico 4 and Dungeons of Dredmor today.
 
I've been doing good so far with the sale, I held back and didn't get Pendulo Adventure Pack though I was really tempted. If it was near the end of the sale I could have had a good idea to buy it after seeing how much I'd spent by then. But this early in the sale I don't want to blow a chunk like that for something I probably wont get to playing for awhile anyways.
 
I did 4 achievements for today and got 3 coal and 1 50% off Red Faction Armageddon coupon. I did like 15 achievements total today though so hopefully that will yield some better results as those achievements come up as the daily heh
 
Considering it is Capcom, close to 0. They don't like to put their games on sale for anymore than 50% off unless they are trying to sell a lesser version of a game than they will go cheaper.

I'd like SF4AE to be like 75% off too, hell, I'd take 66% off
That's what I was thinking, especially with SF4 being 75% off. Still want it so I might pick it up tomorrow.

Bought The Witcher over the Thanksgiving sale for $2.50 and I'm about 2 hours into it. Took some getting used to, but I think I'll enjoy it. Now, the question is, should I pull the trigger on The Witcher 2, or wait....?

I was hoping for like ~$15 ish...

Can you import anything from Witcher 1 to Witcher 2? Obviously, it's the same character, but can you bring anything over or do any decisions you made in the 1st impact the 2nd? No spoilers, please. 😉
 
A friend gifted me Dungeons of Dredmor. It is fun and a great time sink. Really grab and play which I kind of like. Dunno how long it'll keep my interest though to be honest.
