    I've received a giftable Dota 2 on Steam today and apparently many others (all of my friends I've asked) did. So if there is anyone who still doesn't have the game just PM me your email address and I'll send you the invite.

    Also because probably many of us got this extra key, if there are others who don't need theirs and want to give it away, post a reply so people who need invites can see that there's more available. :thumbsup:

    I'd like the invite if it's still available.
    I've sent you a PM.

    Not to hijack the thread, but could someone explain to me why people are trying to accumulate dozens of dota invites and paying out valuable games for them? It's a free to play game that everyone can eventually play, right? You just have to wait a few weeks to get in with the sign-up (as I did?) ?

    Well, I haven't seen anyone collecting invites so far, and I don't have a clue why anyone would do that.

    If they could get them for free and then trade them for other games it might be understandable, but trading games for to get invites seems quite retarded ^^.

    Kudos to you guys who are gifting out the keys out of the goodness of your own hearts!

    For those of you who are just getting it and wanna get in some games, add me on steam: steadylurkin. I play with a few of the NBR guys, Hime and TreeBurner and once in a blue moon, City. Fun guys to play with and check out the DotA 2 thread! Maybe we can finally get going that NBR inhouse we've talked about!

    Hey guys, who is still interested in a Dota 2 key? Right now, in the country that I'm living in has a promo on this site that sells games. They are legit for sure. Bought there FIFA 13 etc...and also did get there 2 of my 4 Dota 2 keys. Use Google Translate to create the account and get the key.
    The site is:
    ComputerGames Shop – Jocuri in format digital – Jocuri cu plata prin SMS - and here the instructions to get the key ComputerGames Shop DOTA 2 Giveaway - 10.000 de coduri disponibile | ComputerGames.ro
    Basically you just have to create an account and generate a Dota 2 key. In total they had like 23.000 keys.

    I just received some DOTA 2 keys as well, let me know if you want one.

    It would be a free steam gift, I don't need anything in return.

    Anyone know why the recent surge in Steam giving out DotA keys to gift out?

    I just received 2 keys myself and I've given them to some IRL friends.

    Ahhhh that could be it. I keep forgetting the game is still in beta. lol.

    Anyways, last night, I saw that I got another key to give out. If my buddy doesn't want it, I'll give it away to someone here. Will post when he gets back to me.

    For that to happen, there probably have to release all the heroes first.

    The point is that i can't find that PM button so i can send you one with my email. I mean, usually in forums if u click on the user name you get to his/her profile and usually you see there "Send message" or something but i don't see it here :(

    Anyways, if you can tell me how to send you a private message or just look a couple of replys before this one, there is my email ^^

    Thanks
