    Default Connect your Steam account to your Org profile!

    We have integrated the Steam ID system into the Org forums. If you look at my profile to the left of this post, you can see a small steam icon at the bottom. If you click that, you will get various options that allow you to contact me on Steam. This will be very useful for coordinating MP gaming, particularly with the upcoming Tosa Cup tournament.

    To add your Steam ID to your profile, do the following:
    1) If you have given your Steam ID a profile name, skip to #3.
    2) If you have not given your Steam ID a profile name, you need to find your Steam ID #. To do this, go the Steam website and search for your username. When you find your name, click on your profile page. The URL will include a long number. For example, my page has the URL http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561197996989606. Therefore, 76561197996989606 is my Steam ID.
    3) Add your Steam profile name or ID # to your Org profile. Simply click this link. Scroll down to the text box Steam ID, and enter the profile name or Steam ID #. That's it, you're done!

    Great work, thank you very much for this.
    Ja mata, TosaInu. You will forever be remembered.

    Been to:

    Swords Made of Letters - 1938. The war is looming in France - and Alexandre Reythier does not have much time left to protect his country. A novel set before the war.

    A Painted Shield of Honour - 1313. Templar Knights in France are in grave danger. Can they be saved?

    FYI, I gave my Steam account a profile name and I don't see that long number - I see my profile name:

    http://steamcommunity.com/id/Gregoshi/home

    So when I added my Steam account to my Org profile, I only had to type in "Gregoshi". I'm a name, not a number.

    Edit: If you enter your Profile name, it gets converted to your Steam ID#...so apparently I am a number.

    same thing happen to me Gregoshi. I don't mind though, easier to remember a name than those random numbers :P

    Interesting, my user name doesn't work, but then I never gave a profile name. I'll add that bit to the instructions, thanks for the heads up.

    well its not the issue with your username working or not its that you have the chance to rename your steamID to whatever you want. Some of us used the same username that we use here :P

    so its just a coincidence basically :)
