Just a big thanks for MaGog!

I just now wanted to check out the games of a specific dev, but GOG's own search filters appear to be completely broken.
Fired up MaGog and in a couple of seconds I had set my choices, hit the Search button and was looking at the results - priceless!

Big cheers!

I would like to second JMitch's request of storing all the data about changes that occur to the games:

mrkgnao: Unless someone objects I will stop noting rating changes and only report more salient changes (such as file size, patch, price, etc. changes).
May I suggest keeping everything on the MaGOG site though, and maybe contact Eli to see if it would be possible to integrate said data to the GOGWiki automatically?

I am indeed keeping all the logs on the server (for posterity, I guess), at least while I have the HD space (it amounts to more than 2MB a day and expected to grow).

That's great news, thanks!
I hope you can get a lot of HD space then, and maybe one day implement a useful way of showing that info on MaGog :)

Thanks for creating MaGog and keep up the good work.. :)

One feature that came in mind is, how about adding some kind of flag for widescreen availability.
This data probably should be imported somehow from WSGF GOG-list or linked since this information isn't available in gamecards. People do seem to be looking for widescreen-patches/info in game-specific forum areas.

At the moment I have 20GB for all my websites, half of which is empty, so we're pretty good.
I will add your suggestion to my to-do list, but at the moment I consider it low priority.

That's a good suggestion. I wasn't aware of this website. Will add it to my to-do list (medium priority).

Great!
It could also be interesting to show what was the lowest price a game has ever reached on Gog.

Yes. I thought about that too.
However, there is an inherent problem since MaGog's database is updated only twice a day and therefore it misses almost all promos that are shorter than 24 hours (e.g. insomnia and flash sales). I will attempt to find a method to circumvent this limitation, hopefully before the winter sale.

ANNOUNCEMENT:
Version 1.3.5 has been released with the following features:
* Fixed a bug that caused "Patched" information to be missing for 15 games
Posted June 21, 2014
high rated
ANNOUNCEMENT:
Version 2.0.0 has been released with the following features:
* Added the ability to attach your own data (user-defined tags, date, stars, price) to each game and then filter by, sort by and display that data [suggested by phaolo]
* Added tutorials for versions 1.x.x and 2.x.x in a new tutorial page

phaolo: Wait, you're the same dude of aN-ovel I see. Writer and coder? (ninja'd on this)

Anyway, is it somehow possible to exclude unwanted \ owned titles from Magog?
Thank you for your suggestion. It has been implemented and is now online.

That's quite a cool update! I liked the tutorials (especially the No,no,no part and the part where I didn't "know" I had a petite daughter :-). I also highly appreciate the fact that now customisable tags exist- I made, for example, for my own use Not_Played, Being_Played (they're more specific than just Backlog, in which could be not-played games along with games currently played-same with the Played tag, in which could be dumped games played 5 years ago along with games currently played), Finished (I'm aware that that is rare, but it happens!) and owned_on_(add the game of another digital distribution service or retail format).
In conclusion-as I've started becoming too chatty again- this is quite an awesome addition! (Thumbs up and +1! :-) )
Now, off to add my personalised tags to as many games as I can!!! :-D

Some of the things you can do with the new MaGog:

My games sorted by descending purchase date (not unlike GOG's "My Games") [WARNING! LONG!]:

My wishlist sorted by ascending current price (quite unlike GOG's "Wishlist", I believe):

The games I bought during the Summer Sale sorted by ascending purchase date:

Tutorial is clear and funny to read (a bit imperative sometimes lol) and the new customizations are great and easy to use. Also, the local data trick is quite interesting.
Great job again!

I only have these comments and questions:
- if I switch browser's tabs while editing (ex: for reading the tutorial), Magog accepts the changes without me pushing Enter. Is that normal?
- how can we backup our data? (local file somewhere?)
- err.. in the future will be possible to batch-export info? Example: copy owned+wishlisted list on on GOG -> paste to a Magog template on Excel -> clean+add info -> somehow export to Magog (maybe directly in our local file?)
