It's our birthday, and we'll rap if we want to!

'Cause you know our rhymes are wack
Feel the beat--you can't go back
It's a free game rap attack
If you wanna win then take a crack

GOG.com, as you possibly know, has turned five. In celebration of us turning five, we like to have gifts for you--let's face it, if not for you, we wouldn't be here. So check out the video with our mad phat beatz yo, laid by MC Enigmatic and the famous DJ Russkat, and then if you're inspired, feel free to drop us lyrics of your own! We'll collect all of the best lyrics and award up to four people 5 GOG.com games of their choice in exchange for their permission to use their lyrics in a proper GOG Birthday Rap video. We may even spring for proper moving pictures for the next one!

Please send us all of your submissions (by which we mean: leave a comment below in the forums) by Friday 20 September 2013 at 0900 Eastern time to enter into the contest.

Konrad: Well, it had to happen. We tried to pretend like it never happened – but it definitely happened.
Introducing the grand GOG.com Birthday Rap Contest winners:

<span class="bold">DrRoxo</span> — You can listen to it! We appreciate the time and effort(?) you put into this one. We give it an "A" for affront!

<span class="bold">MaximumBunny</span> — Getting any sort of flow going in text is a toughie. So big points for making the most of the format with "No misdirection, every reflection of our intention has been molded into convention". Whatever that means.

<span class="bold">Novotnus</span> — Short and sweet. Thank you. We appreciate it. Really.

<span class="bold">Barry_Woodward</span> — Cute. But then... who was rap?




Congrats to each of our four winners, who get to pick any 5 games from the GOG.com catalog! They just don't make these contests like they used to, huh? Our sincere apologies for being so late to the party — we'll be in touch with the winners soon. :)
Wow! You just awarded prizes in a contest that is almost three years old!! I guess better late than never?

Is there any hope for the Jailhouse Stock contest? Or do we have to wait another two years ....

Three years late but I wrote a completely original rap for this competition:



Intro
First off - let me make a short introduction
I'm the web 5.0, keeping GOG from destruction
Blue is the name, Lead master of the game
Top dog in the moderating hall of fame

I'm chillin at my desk with two girls and one pimp cup
Sippin' champagne, reading mails checkin' what's up
Thread necroing scum bags disturbing the peace?
WOOP WOOP it's the sound of the forum police!

Every day is a fight, there's no room for bloopers
Bugs coming at us like in Starship troopers
We help when we can, every child, every man
Treat the boogie man to a permanent ban!

----

CHORUS x2

We're GOG! We march on fearlessly!
Excellent is what we strive to be!

If you're going to follow us to the top

DO NOT GET BANNED!

----

You best watch out bitch if you're an exploiting scammer
Blue will gank you in the face with his big ban hammer
Remove all your rep, throw your ass in the slammer
Make you share a cell with a manic racist spammer

Like a never ending thread of 'What's this game?'
This song is something quite inane
Holy shit, it's like you're going insane

...ladies and gents, we're not to blame!

Chorus x2

Ever flowing - never standing still
We roll out bugfixes, move in for the kill
While Stream might not end up six feet in the ground
With DRM-free fists we go round after round

United we stand never ever growing weary
We cannot fall cause gravity is just a theory
Our wishlist has become quite a monstrous creature
Patience, one and all, Soon™ we'll implement your feature
Our movies section is tiny, that is rather true
We need one continent for our massive crew
From Nicosia to Warsaw to the Polish nation
Throw your hands up for World Domination!

Chorus

Dang, didn't send my rap. Crap.
I'll shoot (:P) some ideas I had back then:

"Gog's rap now a miss
gonna take myself a piss"

"Gog is for me like a totem
gonna scratch my tiny scrotum''

"I came twice last year like a sears catalog
'cause my last girlfriend makes love like boss Hogg, I mean, Gog" ;P
