Steamworks is an umbrella name for their transactional system. There are no dedicated game servers. The system sets up the online game, but then the game is played via P2P. It hands off the server side to the clients. It is far less intensive for a system to run a stat and matchmaking system than to actually run the dedicated server. We are talking about RAM and CPU overhead, it just isn't feasible for a free service.

Also, a lot of console games don't even bother with dedicated servers but rather uses p2p connections.

Only Steam and PSN do that. Xbox runs all the dedicated game servers for their network. Steam does not. Sony does not. I think you need to reread my previous post.

Just show up for the exam and draw a bunch of zombies and witches and boomers.

Oh, sort of like the crap that my students turn in ?

EPIC FAIL !

I'm calling meme misuse here.

But....

Grumpy Cat is all the rage!

Not at Grumpy Cat, which is getting a bit stale since it showed up on Reddit like three weeks ago.

So cute though

I wouldn't mind owning a kitty if he looked that shitty and disapproving all the time.

Disapproving Cat is disapproving.

How are Jerry Springer and Maury Povitch still on tv?

And why don't we have an accurate auto-grammar check in the year almost 2013? Microsoft kept suggesting that I should screw up subject-verb agreement all weekend because it can't differentiate the subjects of the sentence from comma-separated clauses added in between the subject and verb.

Cool. A thing I had listed for sale on Amazon for like a year and a half and totally forgot about just sold.

Now I have to find it, which is kind of concerning me.
