mchack: I see,
Well at first I tried the official windows gog downloader but with needing to click on all the download links manually and the constant freezes, I quickly changed to the (linux cli) lgogdownloader that just got everything in your library no questions asked....
but the downloader can't handle updates when the folder/file structure of the downloads is changed, (it would just redownload everything in the folder he thinks it has to be in) that's why I figured to never change the order the downloader made and just make my own structure in another folder using links to the actual game folders... that way I can just run the downloader regularily and not bother to check if I missed something or have to download anything twice.
Your method sounds much simpler. I like mine because I get to play around in the guts of my library while it clicks along. It reminds me of how much I've retrieved, and that helps temper any irrational feelings of "Oh man, I didn't get such-and-such during this sale!" when I can see hundreds and hundreds of titles that I was exposed to by downloading them, deciding what to load up one by one.
I think I'll settle for Nelson. The hat topples the balance in his favor (the hat is the most important part of the uniform, along with the colle and the trousers :P

Good choice. I agree, I think the hat just barely puts him above the others. Lookin' good :-)
just got a report from anima dimidium meae that his exams also went great :)

And with that I have to be off for tonight. Have a good time!!

huh, that makes total sense to me. I should stop buying games and start building my backup library, from this perspective it even sounds like a lot of fun :) if only the hard disks weren't so expensive (what with all my money being spent on games ;)

Understandable. Will need to take a break from sales to save some cash for an external hard drive.
Getting everything up to date so I can do that as soon as possible, since my library is going to devour roughly half my space if I continue storing it all here.
Good evening everyone *big hugs and waves*

Back from volleyball - how are you all doing?

Edit: I see we have the Hero of Trafalgar in this thread ;)

I normally don't consider mass murderers heroes but everyone has their own view on it i guess...

Yes - i agree with you and i also meant my original post somewhat ironic but i failed at that....i normally avoid the term 'hero' entirely...

Good evening. =)

Just got reminded yet again that I shouldn't go to other threads.

How's your day been?
A hero for one, a criminal for another.

I'd just avoid the topic.

I think there was a pretty good definition of a here in the movie 'Serenity':
Do you know what the definition of a hero is? Someone who gets other people killed. You can look it up later.
But let's move on...

Glad to hear it. =)
