    Some quick math on the points system, for anyone interested:

    The Steam coupon ($5 off for me, though it might vary by region) is 5000 points. There are six 100 point quests available, with a minimum of 13 more daily quests (assuming only one per day).

    If they are worth 100 points each, that means 1900 points are available without spending any money. That leaves 3100 points to get the coupon, and at their exchange rate of $1 = 100 points, you'd have to spend $31 to get $5 off. Not a terrible deal, especially given that $31 goes a long way in the sale.
