CarrionCrow: Oh wow...was busy running away from the demon I summoned after it decided to kill my party, flipped back over here, started looking around at the new stuff and now I'm laughing hysterically at my order history.

17 frigging pages...holy crap. I don't think I can ever claim to have even a tiny shred of restraint anymore.

But anyway, good morning, everyone. =)
Good morning, Crow!

Another fan of the new game shelf I see? ;-)

How are you today?

adaliabooks: The pages are updating as I look at them, so hopefully the PM history will come back, they did say it would be kept.

You can still start a conversation with anyone, just hover over their avatar and you can send a message :)
I really hope they haven't deleted everything... ',',,',' :'-(
Ho... yeah, right :"| ... It'll take some time for me to get used to all these changes...

Also, I love (ironically), how they have now hidden the GOG Downloader links and made them look very unappealing. Nothing like twisting peoples arms to use Galaxy. It seems they are doing everything possible to inconvenience the customer until they are forced to use Galaxy. Not very optional, in my opinion.

I would wish you all a good day... but I sincerely can't do that at the moment -.-

ddickinson: The story sounds interesting. Was the king and kingdom based on a real kind and kingdom? Ireland, perhaps?

The conversation history is gone on the desktop version of the site as well. It will probably come back a bit later, as it is only day one of the new transition to the new account system. I must say, I am not that keen on the shelf, I preferred the older one, and not just due to the manual sort feature.
No, it was (as are most things I write) Nordic inspired, although there were some islands that were inspired by the Celts.
It was very much fantasy, dragons, demons and a talking sword being among the main important themes.

I'm not too worried as they said it would be kept, so hopefully wouldn't have made that promise with out some way to follow through. Plus I was never much for using PMs anyway.

I'm liking the options for shelf organization, definitely. I never did the manual sorting because I had so many frigging games that it would've been a total pain to do.
At this point, I can make some tags, get a handle on things, have a better idea of what I've got and what I actually want to play next.

Can't complain here, listening to a podcast in between chewing my way through Icewind 2. Just wiped out another huge battle (-flips off the mutilated pile of mind flayers-), so I'm another section closer to the end.
Hopefully I can have it done by the end of today, tomorrow at the latest.

*Big comforting hug*

If it is due to the new account sections, I can relate. I am really not keen on so much of it, especially the shelf.

Please don't let it get you too annoyed, especially as you have an important day.

*more hugs for the wonderful Moonshine*

Chamb just posted in the Account system thread that they are working on importing the PMs now.

Hmmm...the new account system broke the Barefoot Sync functionality....

ddickinson: Hello, lovely Owl! *big morning hug*

I am great, thank you. My weekend was just wonderful, we had such a nice time on Sunday just relaxing and enjoying the sunny weather.

How was your weekend, did you do anything nice? Do you have a busy week planned at work?

I think we can still chat with users on Galaxy when we are not on Galaxy. I think it's just teething trouble while the new site features are settling in. Best to give it a few days and see what happens.

*big happy to see you hugs*
Glad to hear you had a wonderful weekend !! :)
Yes, we had a big family event on saturday night (40th birday of an owlet dad's cousin). In an inn... they barbecued a lamb and a sucking pig... and a restful sunday... :) I played some video games, while both owlets were taking a nap (enjoying massively the quietude... lol).
You're right, I guess... wait and see... :-\
No big deal this week at work ; plus, Thursday is a day off, and I don't work either on Friday, as my bigger owlet doesn't go to school... (we all take a long weekend !)... so... only 3 days of work. Awesome ^^
What about you... busy week in sight ?...
**Bigger happier hug**

Luckily the important part is already done. Had a discussion with my Prof. and he approved of my paper, so I just now submitted it for a conference. Not it means waiting a few weeks to see if the conference accepts it :-)
Since I was expecting gog to annoy me further, I did the important stuff before coming here ;-)

Also, I sent you a "chat" for testing, did you get a notification about that?

The site seems to be working a little better for me at least, but a shame about the new account.

But GOG said a lot of things that have since been proven wrong, such as flat pricing and other "core principles". While I do not think it is the case here, I would not be surprised if it was a Galaxy only thing who got the messages back. After looking through the game shelf and finding how they hid the downloader links, I can see that this whole thing is aimed at inconveniencing the user enough to make them want to use the "optional" client, or rather twist their arm into virtually being forced to use it.

It's the aesthetics and the navigation that are annoying me, so much is not hidden under drop menus, instead of nice convenient buttons as they where before. Not to mention the Galaxy central design of it all.

Glad to hear things are going okay with you, and that you are enjoying Icewind 2, or at least I hope you are enjoying it, after putting so much effort into it?

I am great, thank you. My weekend did me the world of good. I am sure as the long week goes on this will change, but then I have the weekend to look forwards to again, so the cycle keeps repeating itself. :-)
