    Argh, my news-server is being weird again; it apparently swallowed up
    a few of my posts. Well, AFAIK it propagated them outwards; they just
    aren't showing up on my feed. Which usually isn't really a problem for
    ME except I wanted to respond to my "Humble Choice May 2025" post with
    a free key.

    But since I can't do that so I have to make an entirely new thread.
    What a silly thing.

    Anyway, in the recent Humble Choice, there were a couple of games I
    already owned and so couldn't add to my account. Rather than let them
    go to waste, I give them away. Here's the one key I have left. Usual
    'rules apply; ROT13 to get the code, and first person to jam it into
    Steam gets the game.

    Have fun. Blast a few Jedi for me.

    Thank you for your usual generosity.

    I played a game trial of this on my Switch. The port was bad.

    I have it on PC somewhere

    Will do soon as I finish KOTOR.

    I'm so tired of Jedi. I'm starting to think the Sith were right ;-)

    I was never a big fan of the franchise, either.

    Thanks again Spalls!

    Thank HumbleChoice. They're the ones offering duplicate games. ;-)

    I assume they eventually run out of games people want that would also
    make sense to give away financially?

    (side note: it's good to see the original post got out. I'm still not
    seeing anything I post on my side of things. And I pay for this
    service!)
