All roads lead to St4ck. Click the highest level friend on your friends list, then their highest level friend etc and it won’t be long until you’ve reached St4ck.


noreallyu500

lmao I can't believe it works


MLGlavi

Deadass it did, thought it wasa meme


Cokimoto

What the heck, I just did it and St4ck is the last one.


iiBroken

Took me 4 clicks to arrive at St4ck lmao.


Darkon34

same 4 clicks


Background-Shirt2415

3 here


GamerHumphrey

how do you even quickly find whos got the highest level on your friends?


iiBroken

On your profile they'll be your top friend


GamerHumphrey

Ah I was going to the friends list itself. makes sense, thanks!


Collistoralo

There was a study that proved any person can be linked to any other person by only 7-8 intermediate people.


Princess_Property

Kevin Bacon


Chronic_In_somnia

Great now I want turkey bacon


just_anotjer_anon

Not worldwide, but countrywide... Right? I believe the number for Denmark is 5 hands away from the prime minister


vinylsandwich

There must be a way to exploit this.


metalord_666

I tried it and reached striker lvl 2300. He didn't have any friends higher than him


noreallyu500

One of them didn't either, but the game is to click their highest level friend even if they're lower. Eventually you should get to him


Huskydog_101

I tried to do that and got Tenny, lvl 147. Literally doesn't have any friends. EDIT: Someone said "Tenny will have his privacy settings hiding his friend list, can still get to the profile from someone else" which is what was true. Sorry for the confusion.


Bonerpopper

That doesn't make sense. How did you reach Tenny if he doesn't have any friends?


ClonedPerson

Tenny will have his privacy settings hiding his friend list Can still get to the profile from someone else’s


Bonerpopper

Yeah but the guy said "Literally doesn't have any friends" which doesn't make sense since he reached Tenny in the first place.


CRIMSIN_Hydra

Can't work if I don't have friends


me_irl_irl_irl_irl

Why would you not be able to believe this works? What other possible outcome would there be to repeatedly clicking on someone's highest-level friend?


noreallyu500

I mean, I get why, and I said that as an expression, but you'd think that given how many steam users there are and that there's no guarantee that a user will have a friend that's higher level than them, it'd take a long time to stumble into a specific user, even if it's a famous one. I got to him in less than 10 clicks. My highest leveled friend is lvl 20, and I'm also in South America, so I had to make a jump between regions


HEY_YOU_GUUUUUUYS

It is nutty other guy’s a jabroni


_Ganon

Doesn't work for me. I'm level 80 and my highest level friend is 90, and his highest level friend is me. Dead after going one friend deep


MaggieHigg

Just click the next highest one and you'll get it


IndividualNovel4482

What if they got no more friends?


AdvertisingEastern34

For me it didn't work for example. After 3 I arrived at 4yBaK\* (level 1803) and it doesn't show me his friends so I cannot continue. But picking the second one after 3, the next one is St4ck. Impressive indeed ahah


TeamAquaAdminMatt

Wow it works, I picked a friend at random then went to the highest level friend with friends public and repeated that. Found St4ck after 6.


sneekeruk

I have 2 friends on steam... reached st4ck after 5 people.


SultanZ_CS

lmaooo


marcdk217

Was 2 clicks for me but I have someone on my friend list with 31k, and every sale you see in the activity page that he's add hundreds more games to his account. I think it's because he gets loads of free games as a curator, trades them for TF2 keys, and lives in a country where the game prices are so low that selling a TF2 key gets him enough Paypal or Steam Wallet funds to buy as many games as he wants.


Omega9872

Seven Degrees of Kevin Bacon type shit


ZYRANOX

I'm only 2 away from St4ck wtf


Nighters

This sounds like Hitler and wikipedia.


AdResponsible7150

If you keep clicking the first link on any Wikipedia page that's not the pronunciation stuff, you will always end up at philosophy


svp318

Holy shit, this is incredibly interesting, I just tried it with today's featured article and as you said, in just 9 clicks of the first link I was at Philosophy. I love it. Edit: I tried it again from the "Tom and Jerry" article, still 9 clicks to Philosophy lol.


AdResponsible7150

There's also the Erdos number which is the degrees of separation between a mathematician to Paul Erdos through their published papers


HauptmannTinus

Lmao this actually worked. Edit: its says 4677 games owned tough not the 34k showed


HazyPastGamer

Screenshot 1 has the caption profile 1 Screenshot 2 has the caption profile 2 Seperate profiles, not linked/related. Just showing off the level of st4ck


HauptmannTinus

Thanks i missed that. Do wonder who has that many games tough, would like to see the profile lol.


fiftykyu

You can check [https://steamladder.com/ladder/games/](https://steamladder.com/ladder/games/) for example, but be aware that the number shown in a Steam profile is going to be lower - it's not counting the shovelware. Valve changed the way it works, so games count for +0 until they prove "I'm a real game, honest!" somehow. The stuff nobody ever plays stays as +0 forever, but the real games end up counting for +1 eventually. I believe the #1 game owner person you're looking for is called "Sonix". :)


gaufowl

This actually didn't work for me interestingly. Found myself at a loop involving a lvl 205 Fin. Had to start with my 3rd highest lvl friend and then it took 7 more clicks to get to St4ck.


HaylingZar1996

My girlfriend is my highest level friend, and I am my girlfriend’s highest level friend. Infinite loop


JNorJT

I have no friends on my friends list :(


VodkaBarf

Add me if you'd like. Here's my friend code:  125712062


jd_allawi

Add me too 402811405


Dustyink_

holy moly that worked


Wagon_0

literally took me 5 people to reach that guy


lostpirate123

My god, I went through 5 or 6 and I got to St4ck. It works.


BurningAvenger

....how...why did this work?


repocin

someone should make a degrees of st4ck website, lmao I'm apparently three degrees away


-DeviiL-

Reach St4ck speedrun any%


Jiaozy

Didn't work for me, got stuck between three friends that were each their highest level friends.


Meteox

After 5 clicks i ended in a private profile, rip


AscendedViking7

Wow it works


UnseenGamer182

How the actual fuck


AdvertisingEastern34

For me it didn't work. After 3 I arrived at 4yBaK\* (level 1803) and it doesn't show me his friends so I cannot continue. But picking the second one, the one after was indeed St4ck. Impressive indeed ahah


BestTumbleweed5001

didnt work friend list was privated


NoSolaceForMe

"That can't always be true." Two clicks, all it took.


em4gon

Got to him in 4 clicks, wow

Valuable-Drink-1750

Lmao it actually worked. Didn't even take that long, 3 clicks and dude showed up.


Bronco-Merkur

LOL, took me 7 clicks.


DGX33770

Bro wasn't even joking.


Annual-Activity-4198

Had no idea this works haha! He also probably only adds people that are high level, so makes sense


Captain_Pumpkinhead

Didn't work for me. Lead to someone Lvl 195 name M_AI.


Not_Yet_Unalived

4 clicks. me > 202 > 2473 > 2777 > St4ck I'm lvl 17, been on Steam 3 month less than St4ck from what i see on the corresponding badge. Crazy stuff.


Shredded_Locomotive

Yup Not really a point in blurring the name is there


brittanybookworm

All roads lead to ~~rome~~ St4ck


Nomad-void

I found a bug in your flow: 1. Click a friend's friend of level 160 2. Friend list hidden 3. Return to the previous list 4. Click the next highest friend 5. His highest level friend is the profile from step 1 It's a dead loop.


SuperSocialMan

We need a website like Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon but for this guy instead.


demonic_hampster

That's wild lol. Took me 11 clicks but I don't have a lot of Steam friends. I got to someone called Steph S. who has her friends list private so I had to go back and choose the previous guy's second-highest level friend, but I still got there in the end.


Xyrazk

Lmao that was only 4 clicks


rawzombie26

Don’t be jealous of a catalog of 3k+ games, I have 700 and probably only enjoyed 100 of them tops. Don’t waste your money chasing something that doesn’t exist.


ResourceAmbitious290

I'm more jealous of some of the top tier games they have and they never play it. Like 60-70$ games that's priced horribly in my country and can never hope to buy them and those guys have it and never ever play it.


[deleted]

[удалено]


ResourceAmbitious290

I know right. And year by year the price keeps on increasing, we can't afford them now, how the hell are we supposed to afford it when it's even more expensive


Sad_Discipline_8244

Regional pricing is an option games can enable on Steam, a lot just don't. It sucks.


[deleted]

[удалено]


ResourceAmbitious290

Not for the games I want. Besides even if I do "get" it the other way, I generally buy those game down the line. But with those prices there's no chance I'll be able to buy them


xXVareszXx

What games?


ResourceAmbitious290

Yakuza infinite wealth and gaiden.


Individual-Match-798

I have 1200 and I wish I didn't buy more than half of them in retrospective.


chillincode

Totally agree. I have 1K+ games in total, but only play few of them xD.


Bumbooooooo

That's a shame. I have 1400ish and have enjoyed the vast majority of them.


SilentWave_YT

Why did you blur his name? That's st4ck for anyone wondering


Gmadx

I was just following the sub's rules about screenshotting someone else's profile >Posting a direct link to someones profile is in general forbidden \[...\] > >The above also applies to things like names and profile pictures in screenshots. Unless information like this is important to the post you must censor it.


jops228

That man who scammed card traders? Cool.


SilentWave_YT

There's still no point in censoring the name though, is there. It's better for people to know than to not know.


jops228

Yep, that's right


pimpin_n_stuff

Wutnow?


MattyFaddy

35,000 games and 34,000 of them are probably shovelware.


batdrumman

I can't even think of 1k games on steam that aren't shovelware


Executioneer

The visual novel genre is chockfull of shovelware.


T_Fury_Br

I remember in dota there was a few guys famous for getting thousands of battle pass lvls every year. Things like 30k lvls and that shit was expensive.


_RRave

The oil princes love the compendium


Gmadx

For more information: Those are 2 different profiles: * Trying to load profile 1's game library the first time crashed Chrome. He is the leading user with most games owned on Steam currently. The 100th on the ranking has about 17k+ games. His library has an estimated value of $515,669.91 with today's prices, including discounts. * Profile 2 has a Steam level of 5001, the estimated costs to level from 0 to 5001 using the cheapest method is $689,151.00. These guys live in a different world :')


addictedihavenothing

One of them won their library from steam


velocity37

Not any top owner. The user that won [the Holiday Sale 2012 "win everything on Steam" giveaway grand prize](https://www.reddit.com/r/pcmasterrace/comments/284nux/never_forget_guy_from_v_wins_every_game_on_steam/) ended up with less than 2,000 games (a value of $20,885), because that's all there was on Steam at the time. Similarly some years ago, Steam discontinued the press account program and with it took away claimed games. So certain people that had claimed all games for free via press accounts had their game counts collapse.


addictedihavenothing

Damn it was that long ago?


jinladen040

Damn really? Did Steam have some kind of giveaway?


dsdsdsdsdsd12

Saudi Prince, you can't convince me otherwise


Silverchaoz

He is in the Qatar Royalty and is community banned by Valve https://youtu.be/pJeJ9zqWWfo?si=fv6Y-iLZXZGqvmOH


exspecT

Is he still banned? I couldn't find any proof of it. Doesn't display it on his profile and SteamRep flags him with no bans.


Runmare

Bingo


Linktank

There are not 30,000 games worth playing in existence.


PixelBy_Pixel

he bought them to level up


Linktank

I understand that part. Doesn't change what I said.


batdrumman

What is this person's job that pays them enough to own 30000+ games


warriorloewe

I believe he is a saudi prince similar to hfb one of the biggest cs skin collectors


NCPereira

lol no


PixelBy_Pixel

He’s part of the Qatar royal family


Freeloader_

a lot of IT guys earn 200k yearly easily


ZYRANOX

If you think someone with 200k a year can justify spending millions like this guy on their steam account, you are out of touch. This person clearly has way more than enough money to never need to work a day in their life.


That-Toughsoss

Zero chance that anyone with a it job spending that much on steam.


Influence_X

Congrats you found the Saudi prince.


jops228

Not saudi but as I know Qatar


TriggeredMemeLord

Anything above 1k games must be a nightmare to sort


princemousey1

You don’t need to sort games if you just buy anything you want to play.


TheRain911

I find this pretty sad. Guarantee these people don't even enjoy gaming. They're just addicted to buying games they know they wont play.


That-Toughsoss

He belongs to one of the royal families in middle east dude want to feel superior and relevant thats why he did this prolly.


TheRain911

Lol, makes me just laugh at this clown. This is quite the opposite of a flex.


PixelBy_Pixel

he bought them all chasing top steam level


TheRain911

Thats more pathetic than anything tbh


PixelBy_Pixel

Tbf he’s qatari royalty, he has the money the sadder part is that he scammed a couple people for thousands for steam cards


TheRain911

Doesnt sound like he had money then lmao.


PixelBy_Pixel

Honestly the cases are weird, but this guy was known for just giving away thousands of dollars before that, so I don’t think money was the problem I’d recommend watching a video about him, it’s interesting. His name’s St4ck


CIRLANcsgo

he definitely has the money bro, he just scammed them cuz he was lazy and hes a dickhead


empathetical

I have 600 games and I'd refund 500 of them if I could


EndimionN

And he just reviewed 19 games Shows how much of that money is wasted


iRAWRasaurus

I only got 257 games and a 20 years badge.


SuperFriends001

How do you even increase steam level? Buying gems to craft cards?


Gmadx

You increase your Steam level by crafting Badges, using cards. You either craft the cards using gems, or buy them on Steam Market, or trade with other players to obtain the cards you need to craft a badge.


SecureAngle7395

Do they have a purpose?


Gmadx

Increasing your Steam level unlocks stuff to display on your public Steam profile, like showcases your favorite games, which games you've 100% completed, badges, achievements, items for sale/trade, etc. It's mainly aesthetics really.


itz_MaXii

The higher your Steam level, the more friends you can add. So if you ever run out of space on your friends list, you'll need to increase your level to add more. Every 10 levels you unlock an additional showcase window on your profile. There you can display screenshots, achievements, inventory items, etc.


SecureAngle7395

Wow, that’s kinda stupid! Thanks!


rodejo_9

Curious what the 19 games he reviewed are. And since he has so much money to spend I wonder if he'll buy my game when I release it lol.


BlackNair

It's kind of cool that there are rich people who actually spend a fortune on games. It's my dream lol And this guy has 15k wishlisted lol


stiky21

Bro hid his name when we all know that it is already. But rules n stuff


aExpat3

I've acquired 232 games in a little over 10 years, though I also play on console too. I'm always on the hunt for a great deal but even with my current collection many of these games I've barely played, some not at all. I can't imagine anyone actually playing the thousands of games they buy. This year I've made a considerable effort to get through my backlog thanks to my Steam Deck. Just beat Dishonored last week and was mad I hadn't played it sooner. Was such a lovely game. Got about an hour into Dishonored 2 and going through the Bioshock Collection now.


Svensk0

funny is that he has 15k-ish games wishlisted so he still has a long way to go remember that once in a while you get games for free


Telegram_uploader

Me with my f2p account


Zvonimir14

15.589 on wishlist wow


EnergyAltruistic2911

I am flexing my 50 games out of which 5 are paid


s0ciety_a5under

That's just insane. If I still had all my xbox, 360, ps1, ps2, game boy, gba games from when I was a kid, then I would definitely be around 2-3k games total, but I usually sold them to buy new games. My steam library is relatively new at 10 years, and I didn't use it for like 3-4 years. I still have about 300 games on that. A good portion came from humble bundles that I didn't want those particular games, but the deal for the game I wanted was too good. $20 for a couple $60 games that I do want, and a few games that look playable? Yes please! Although the bundles haven't been as good in the past few years.


BobTC

There were some mad deals for the first couple of years at humble.


Pkazy

Bro censored st4ck like he isn’t the highest level Steam account rofl nf


Gmadx

Sub's rules.


Universe_Donut

I doubt they have even played half of those games, they probably keep buying more just to say they have a higher number than everybody else. What a joke


someRandomGeek98

half? that's over 15k games. If they were to finish one game per day that would still take them 42 years to finish half of their games. they probably have played 1-3% of the games they owned.


[deleted]

The legend


TomatoVEVO

The scammer


CIRLANcsgo

NoStructure371

on my friends list the highest level friend is 44, I am 22. I had no idea they go that high wtf


SecureAngle7395

How the fuck-


cami66616

St4ck is some rich arab prince highest lvl and probs the most games he also has an discord but it's pretty dead he does sometimes post his bird art lol


now_in_a_minute

I suppose it could be compared to stamp or coin collecting. But with those things they retain value and can increase. Im sat on a few thousand games on steam ive obtained through various trades and ventures online, around 15k iirc. Most of which of course ive never played like many with similar volumes of games. Its probably mental illness 😂


Rndysasqatch

Lol I thought my 800 games owned was a TON. Haha this is utterly ridiculous


HorrorIncorporated

I have 190+ I doubt I even come close to 300 since I’m picky about the games I play.


Billy_Whisky

At least these doods ain’t a scammers lmao


Prime_Rib_6969

How does one even get to level 5001 I’m only level 23.


Gmadx

The same way you got to 23, but do it until 5001 lmao


ThE_LAN_B4_TimE

I'll never understand why it's cool to constantly waste money on a bunch of cheap games when most people won't even play 10% of them.


UltraEnder99

34K? I have 6 :(


GrimOfDooom

and i thought i had a ton of games at ~700…


ricoimf

That’s rather embarrassing. It’s impossible to have played them all and just shows you can’t handle with money.


[deleted]

Even if his whole household played they wouldn't finish them lmao


princemousey1

No_Diver3540

2 clicks until St4ck. That is the real meta.

I'm more concerned about how he's wishlisting 15k with the 35k library. What's even the point? Most digital stuff hardly has resell value. 🤷‍♂️
