I wouldn't know. I don't own it.

Talk about painting a target on yourself.

Per their website, if you didn't get any keys, they're refunding you; if you got even one (yay Skyrim!), you get the whole pack, eventually.
I got the same email. Luckily I'd already claimed all the TES titles, plus new Vegas. Just a waiting game on the others. I have two friends that both claimed no keys, and have been given a refund - they were less than chuffed, even though it was a pricing error.
It looks like some of the games have been removed from the bundle, though. It's no longer listing Brink, Hunted, or Rogue Warrior, either on the store page or in my games list.
All still listed on mine, FWIW..
Interesting.... Did you get keys for any of these before they ran out?

Nope, only key I got was Skyrim.

Yeah, I got keys for everything except Fallout 3.
All the games are still listed on mine. Got about half the keys. Did you get the email saying they were going to honour the deal?

Then it's not just a clever name.
I started the Thankgiving / Holiday sales with $0.86 in my Steam Wallet. This is how I came out the other side:
Received:
Sine Mora - Monkeyboy. Thanksfor a gift 6 hrs before my birthday in my time, but already my birthday your time! I've even played it through to the end once already and got Aus_Tbird to pick it up!
Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time - Manach
Torchlight II - Psych
The Walking Dead - TheCounselor
Secret of the Magic Crystals - Eleima (to be honest it's in my inventory and I still haven't even added it to my library)
Jet Set Radio - Mateo - Works great on Intel HD 3000 integrated graphics.
Doom 3 Complete - Cymbrogi
Tomber Raider: Underworld - Thanks, MaverickZ. I passed it on to someone with it on their wishlist after talking it over with you.
Gifted:
Crusader Kings II: Songs of Byzantium - Manach?
And thanks to gift cards (mostly of the Steam variety) I bought some games for myself:
$35.49 Borderlands 2 + Season Pass (20+ hrs now)
$3.74 Doom Pack (1+2)
$19.99 Dark Souls (22.1 hrs in 5 days!)
Why can't I find who I sent gifts to? I could have sworn there was somewhere to tell me this info. The best I could do was take forever to scroll and load each day of insanity back to December 20th when I purchased the game and do a find for the gift. It seems Manach was the lucky recipient of my one gift.
As a reference point to how much is displayed each day that is loaded, December 21st takes 31 presses of 'pageup' to scroll through. Thankfully I just hit end to load each older day and didn't manually scroll through it all.
One day I'll be the one gifting out games more than receiving.
I never did find any takers on a gift for my final $0.37 prior to getting gift cards from the family. In retrospect, I got lazy and let it go without just sending someone something.
All the games are still listed on mine. Got about half the keys. Did you get the email saying they were going to honour the deal?
Got the email, but previously none of the games were showing up, so maybe I'm a special case? If they're still not there by the time keys are provided, I'll open up a ticket with support.

I used my email receipts from Steam to tell me that information. (It requires that you filled in the person's name in the gift message properly, however, since that's what shows up on your receipt.)

Actually, yeah I found it. It's printed in the standard size text at the end of the first paragraph if you send it via Steam. Like this:
Dear mrtomaytohead,Thank you for your recent gift purchase on Steam. Your gift has been sent to Manach.
You know, I'm afraid to add up my totals. I spent way more than I expected to.
Self:
DCS: A-10C Warthog
Sine Mora
Hotline Miami (via Amazon)
Total: $17.50.
Received:
FTL (from a non-goodjer)
Sleepy Dogs (from a non-goodjer I last talked to 2 years ago!)
Gifted:
Nothing...(yet)... I was away almost the entire sale. Only got DCS and Sine Mora via the assistance of a saintly poster in this thread.
received:
Snapshot from LobsterMobster
got for myself:
endless space (at $10.19)
mark of the ninja (at $7.49)
gifted:
*shuffles feet* nothin'
don't be lookin' at me like that with yer judge-y eyes. I gifted a bunch of Kotor 2s in the thanksgiving sale.
That's all she wrote.
I would've picked up Primordia if enough people voted for it.
I learned that 50% off is just not enough for me to want to pick up either football manager or skyrim despite them being on my wishlist. (to be fair, I already have skyrim on console).
WOAH! This thread title may say that winter sale is over, but that didn't stop Mantid from infecting me with A Virus Named TOM -- annnnd the Soundtrack! Thank you!
Where are the deals? I don't like what they've done with the front page.

I know, right? You look and everything is priced at RETAIL.

It's kinda nice to load up steam this morning and see that ol' friendly non-sale interface. On the right it shows me what my friends have recently been playing and what they bought etc. I've got the what's new tab, coming soon stuff... like it just feels a little bit like normal again.
Sales are awesome, but it's nice to have the old familiar steam back.
She must never know.
So say we all.

The design is kinda seeming old and bland to me now. I think they need to do a redesign.

His right bleah. Obviously just a punctuation error.
Bought:
I Am Alive
STALKER series
KOTOR 2
Sins Rebellion
Received:
A Valley Without Wind (thanks, Manach!)
Bad Rats ("thanks", m0nk3yboy!)
A very light sale for me. I didn't gift this time around as I was keeping a closer eye on the budget following my wife's job ending when she received a "you're fired!" text on Christmas Eve. I'll catch up next time!

Ack! No, we laughed about it, cracked the champagne, and toasted her freedom -- as you do when you part company with someone willing to end a business relationship via text on Christmas Eve. No worries, here.
That sounds like the worst company to work for ever... I've had some sh*tty jobs, but none of them ever fired me with a text message.
So professional.
