I was using the mobile version of the Humble Bundle website. Unfortunately, when I checked my receipt I found out I somehow had the comic bundle, not the RPG bundle. (I suspect that it has to do with using the physical back button, and the previous page not having the data in question embedded into the URL). (It's a recommended design practice to improve usability and prevent these kinds of errors, but not all programmers know about it.
They refunded me. (It's all good, right... not so much, apparently the glitch counts against my purchase limit and I can't get a 3rd Humble Bundle... as a gift... :/ This means that whatever group I find/make in my area, we will have to use 2 sets of e-books instead of 3... which would be perfect with 1 physical set.)
One of the sets is mine, my first pathfinder books... ever. I should also mention that my city DOES NOT have a pathfinder game running, in spite of the fact that there is actually a SMALL yearly tabletop gaming convention in my city. (Though, to be fair, the nearest other city is about an hour and a half away, and in that gap there are a great many small towns and other cities, and pathfinder has a pretty good turnout from those small towns at the local event... I know that at least 4-5 tables of pathfinder games run simultaneously at the yearly event... and those are usually booked solid all day).
I, honestly, would have rather lost out on the donation and still been able to buy the bundle... :/ All I really cared about was getting all 3 of those bundles.
This also means that anyone who bought both the comics and the RPG books would have been rate limited on one because of the other. (In short, one could buy 3 comics, 3 books, or 1 comic 2 books, etc.
Is it really fair to punish those who also wanted the comics? I'm getting distracted... unfortunately, while they did remove the rate limit... I just got the e-mail and the bundle is over. Is there any way for me to get that 3rd bundle? (Keep in mind that I'm the same guy who waited 2 years for a second 100baseFX fiber optic unit at my local goodwill... ($5 btw, regularly $120 new!) cheap... and broke... do not begin to describe the vast emptiness that is my wallet. I still need it at the humble bundle price, and if I hadn't found it luckily, I likely never would have purchased the books.)
One more guys... you have no idea the value you are getting... I literally get paid to sell stuff... by the hour. When I have something, when I like something, when I enjoy something, I share it. Honestly, if I can't get that bundle, Paizo is losing much more than me.
