mrkgnao: This is a giveaway for people who don't use twitter.

THE RULES:

— Post something about GOG and/or MaGog here.
— Entries have to be MORE than 140 characters total.
— Entrants must not have used twitter in 2015 (and do not plan to do so in the remaining month or so).
— Entrants must have a positive forum presence for at least a few months. By positive presence I mean being generally nice to other people, answering questions, offering advice, maintaining lists, harmlessly joking around, playing non-giveaway forum games, searching for Ricky, complaining about the hardships of life on GOG, that sort of thing.
— You can edit your post(s) as much as you want.

CLARIFICATION:

— GOG and MaGog are in no way and have never been meant to carry satanic overtones.

THE PRIZE:

The winner will be picked randomly.

— Only place — [url=http://www.an-ovel.com/cgi-bin/magog.cgi?ver=633&scp=gdspur&dsp=ipgfsorlcmbaxyzXhDFGHT0512348&ord=&flt=tcs~Collection+Two~&opt=&myf=ThuNov191857462015_tYcjwliEp4pkD]the prize[/url].

Remember to watch this thread for when the winner announcement is made (probably soon, where soon is probably this weekend)!
I have to admit that recently (because of the Fall sale) I have more games to play than time to play them but the prize simply tempted me to join in the giveaway.

Let's check the rules.

1) Now that's easy. Thank you so much for all the work you put into MaGog. Not only does Magog make the catalog searchable in much better ways than Gog it also allows you to easily find (and post in the appropriate thread) what has changed and uncover game page bugs. Gog should not only fully disclose their API to you to make your life easier they should also pay you for your work, IMHO!

2) Check.

3) Check. I have never used Twitter, Facebook or any other social crap. I'm old-school and proud of it. :-)

4) Check. At least IMHO but I'll let you be the judge of that. :-)

Not necessarily. His post does contain more than 140 characters. Some of them are quoting mine, but I never said these didn't count.

Didn't know MaGog could count characters. Line endings, whitespace?

Commas and the word " and ".
What type of line endings? Also, the raw post text or what's displayed?

I lost you.

All I did in order to count KasperHviid's list of characters was to copy-paste it into vim, perform the following command ":%s/\(,\| and \)/\r/g" and count the number of lines: 207.

GR00T: Great idea. Imma retweet this...

Not in. :P
I dont know why but tears came from my eyes while laughing reading this post. Live long and prosper friend.
There once was a website named GOG
and many video games they did flog.
their search was crap
the users were in a flap
until along came mrgnao and magog!
