Potato sack 2011 badge

[GR1MA550]

Hi guys, its 2 years old, but maybe you will know something. There was a chance to have "Potato Sack" badge in april 2011 - it was some spring sale. Im sure I have bought 3 games during this sale and have no XP from this sale. What was going on during this sale? Can remember any of you?

You had to collect potatoes from the ARG to get the badge.

It was a steam hype sale to sell indy games to get portal 2 released early. It only released a few hours early

I see, thats why I dont have any XP from this, I like more FPS than indie games.

That makes no sense. They are many indie FPS.

no you can´t get the potato sack any more. Watch out on this summersale for the new badge!

I got every game in the potato sack and participated in the ARG, yet I have no potato sack badge. wtf?

E-mail support then, nothing we can do.

You had to get all the (23?) hidden potatoes from all the indie games to get the golden potato

You had to get all 36 potatoes during the event. It took forever; so long, that eventually some people released some automated ways of achieving some of the achievements in games like Cogs because it was so difficult to achieve naturally. I don't even know how many hours I spent getting it, but it was worth it as few people completed it. Sorry to revive an old thread, but I was just researching how many people actually completed it and thought I'd solve the mystery.
