Any consensus on whether it's better to combine the coals or save for the drawing?

When I see people with 20+ coals already, it suggests not bothering with the drawing...

Personally I think it's better to save for the 1/2 drawing. If you combine the coals you'll most likely win a coupon.

Having said that, I wish y'all would combine your coals for coupons.....that will increase my odds!
 
33% off Valve x 2
10% off Deepsilver (Dead Island, etc.)
50% off Braid

All coupons valid Jan 2 through March 1.
 
60 coals + 50% valve + 50% avencast + 50% + block that matter + 50% mumbo jumbo complete pack + 50% darwinia + 75% risen for mw3 !! Is in offer for $44
 
Have a copy of Bioshock 2 in the shrink wrap. I'm pretty sure it has a Steam code in the box for it. I will try to take it back to Best Buy tomorrow, but will take offers in the mean time.
 
I've got

1x Revenge of the Titans
8x Coal
50% and 33% off Valve
50% off Apox
50% off Lightfish
25% off Dead Island

Also, I need the swap achievement so even a coal-coal swap is okay.

PM me 😀

So I just bought Saints Row 3 and it's currently downloading at 500 kb/s max. Apparently Steam servers are getting hammered with all the sales.

I have a copy of Secret of Monkey Island Special edition and HL 2, as well as a 75% off garrys mod and 25% off valve game. anyone want to trade ?
 
God no. Chances of getting a coupon are very high. Coals can be traded but absolutely no one wants coupons...

I guess I don't look at the coal as a currency like I should. I look at each coal as a 1/3,000,000 or worse shot at winning 10 games.
 
I've got a copy of Half Life 1 availible.

Not looking for anything in paticular. games>coal>coupons.

Still need the swap achevement, can trade coal for coal. PM me if interested.

Have you joined the AT group on Steam? That's how I found someone to trade. I'd tell you how but I forgot, been a year or so.

10 games?

The grand prize is EVERY single game on Steam.

50 1st prize winners get top 10 on their wishlist
100 2nd prize winners get top 5 on their wishlist
1000 3rd prize winners get Valve complete pack

Odds still aren't great, but they're better than 1 in 3 million.

I was exaggerating, but the chance for the first place prize is probably about 1 in a million. There are 4.5 million Steam accounts online right now. With all the duped accounts, I wouldn't be surprised if there were 50-60 million coals (or more) active by the end of the sale.
 
I missed the Hard Reset sale, anyone got an extra copy they want to trade me?

I have Saints Row 2, HL2 and about 6 coals and some coupons... pm me here or on steam if you want to
