Crit for critical like in RPGs. When you press the buy button for the games on sales in the promo you have a chance of getting it for free, GOG says you got a critical hit when that happens. If you don't get a critical, you do not have to buy the game.

You get them after you click the "buy" button. But you only have one chance per game and round. Clicking several times on the same game won't give you a higher chance to win.

Good morning, Nox Ambassador.

Good morning folks! The DAY THREE list is now updated, as is the Games Remaining list. I am catching up on the thread itself. In a half hour we'll be kicking off DAY FOUR with your guest host Grargar, that amazing cat who has all the facts and who has kept this thread so timely already. Big thanks to him for taking the helm today!

I was almost always the dungeon/game master and never used it in a game. Cheating in games is pointless to me :) It involves spinning the die in a certain way. I'll see if there are any videos of the technique. I've never searched before as the Internet didn't exist when I used to play :)

You know how you can spin a coin so it ends up looking like a sphere? Well it is similar to that. So for a 20-sided die, you would get one of the 5 numbers showing on top. This means that you can narrow the odds significantly. With enough practise, it is possible to learn to almost get the exact number but it is harder on D20s. The same technique can be used for all of them, even a D4!

The only game I remember cheating in was the card game 500, and that was when my father taught me how to cheat shuffle. The only person I cheated against was my mother as it annoyed her to be beaten by a child :P

Ahah! I did see a message of some sorts yesterday when I bought Pier Solar (which does show up on my shelf but is not marked as owned on the gamecard), but the last few deals have been ones that I already own, so no crit on those I suppose....

Ty!

Damn, I just realised that I can`t download my freebie Pier Solar, because the last few megabytes won`t downlaod!!

You're really starting to chang that word.

No that is actually a bug where it says "Swing and a miss" and many folks got that including me, Critical hit message doesn't have anything to do with that. Its all random chance where some folks get lucky more often then others.

Thank you, same for all of you :)
Like someone very well known say : "I'll be back" (I think. And I still have one game to hunt ;))

Torches and pitchforks people. Let's burn this heathen!

Thx. :)

Nope all games are more or less keaning. Atleast a few hours ago.
Looks like Noxxing is the new opposite to keaning. ^^

Wohoo thanks Sin! :)
