ddickinson: That seems like a stupid idea. Oh well, guess my gifting plans are out of the window now.

*mumbles mean things about GOG ruining the sale by not allowing proper gifting*

Empress_Owl: Is that sure ?... where is it written ?...
Maybe Agent can't click properly... :-p or maybe it's one of the usual numerous GOG's bugs™... ?
In the FAQ:

Only one serpent left.

And the official thread is havving the hiccups!
No gifting, really? Hopefully I'll own most of the games on sale so I can actually gift a couple.

FearfulSymmetry: Wow, insomnia is here! That's definitely a good suprise to come home to. :)

I hope all you people of the thread are doing great today! :)

I'm super exhausted, since I just taught three classes without the presence of my mentor for the first time (she normally sits in the back). The kids immediately became a lot rowdier and I had several fires to put out. Phew, what a day. Still, on the whole, it went quite well.
Glad you survived class! I always wanted to be a Kindergarten teacher, but the idea of teaching folks older than about 6 or 7 terrifies me. :)

ddickinson: No thanks, try asking one of the others. :-)
And stop swearing, or I will have to get the soap.
*headdesk* 9__9

Give me a break. It's my Semi-annual Swearing Exception™ :-p
What a terrible move. I'm not going to buy something I don't want just so I can buy a second gift copy. Tant pis :'-(','',',',','','',,','

Good afternoon. =)

I can see why you're tired. If you avoided tasering any of the little shits, then kudos on your patience. ;)

Additional - Just got my first Atlas bear...

Pretty lacklustre thus far...and the gifting restrictions are not exactly helping....
It seems really silly. The discounts do not seem that high compared to previous static sales. They will only lose money due to people not being able to gift. It makes little sense.

Hello, lovely Fearful! *big hug*

They set fired?! What kind of schools do you have over there? o_O :-)
I am glad to hear that your first class on your own went quite well for the most part. Hopefully they will get easier for you as you have more experience at it.

Really? I'm the opposite way around. I'd probably find it a whole lot harder to teach kindergarten than teenagers. :P Still, there are definitely challenges ... :P

Hey Crow, how are you?

Well, I did have to separate some of them since they wouldn't stop talking. And I came close to kicking one out. Probably the most irritated I've been yet. :P

Well done! You should get a prize for breaking GOG that quickly.

Yes....a suprise without a doubt..... :)
I'm doing fine..

Glad to hear that it went well all things considered - have an *energising hug*. How are you doing aside from being exhausted?

Okay, but I will see about peanut butter flavoured soap, or bacon, I am sure the US has bacon soap. :-)

Yes, a very strange move. The forum usually comes alive with gifting during a sale. But oh well, as Moon said in the sales thread, I am not about to buy a game I don't want just to be able to gift it to someone else. Don't you just love this New GOG. I miss the good old GOG. :-(

Yeah, I don't get the non-gifting thing either ... This will make the insomnia much slower, I think.

Hey DD, good to see you! *huge hug*

Haha no, not literally. It was just a metaphor for the fact that I had to keep breaking up arguments and such. :P If they actually set fire I would probably run away from that school myself ...

Thanks! I hope (and think) so too. Right now they're really trying to test my limits so they're a lot more annoying than they normally are.

Hello Fearful glad to hear you done well in the class! :)
Is it just me, or do the discounts seem a little low so far?
Also, 10 games just for one free one? And with the number decreasing for each free game? Wouldn't it make more sense to go for the previous system of if you spend X amount of dollars, you get such-and-such game? Considering that all of the games so far have been at least $5 and up....that means you'd be spending at least $50 before you get anything at all as a bonus.
I mean, to be fair, they're not obligated to be giving out any bonuses at all, but still. I can't really see somebody spending some $100+ on this one sale.
Personally, I think I liked the piñata promo/mystery gift promo idea better.

I was expecting the sale, but not necessarily today. :P Good to hear you're doing okay!

*thank you hug* I'm doing all right otherwise, happy about having finished another chapter of my thesis. And I'm looking forward to Easter, since we'll be having a big family brunch.
