Thank you Sage103082 for the kind mention.

How are things with your mother? I hope they are improving. And how is that adorable little kitty doing? Did everything go okay with his visit to the vets?

Bumping this thread in order to thank Ragnarblackmane (again) for his generosity on these forums, and also everyone sharing Witcher Adventure beta keys in this thread:

Also a shoutout to foxworks and xckx for their generosity, and of course the resident chimp Sachys... hope you can come back soon!

Again bumping for thanking Tarnicus for this post. While I don't agree 100%, there so much truth an compassion in it, I can just raise my hat to him (I hope that's the correct term in English).

Haha funny to see you reference that post, when I was coming here to thank the originator of that thread, ddickinson for creating one of the most compassionate giveaways I have seen to date on GOG. If every human being agreed 100% with each other then we would be...less than we are. It is through difference and discourse that understanding and change occur, and change is one of those "universal laws" that I like to talk about.

I wanna throw some thanks in here.

A very special thanks to Bigs, Momo1991, OldFatGuy, benderz, and IAmSinistar for being extremely generous and trusting me with codes for some outstanding games. I can only hope that I might have made someone one one-hundredth as happy as you have made me with your gifts. Thank you.

A special thanks to those who have run the "Game Photography" contests - muratogut, RadonGOG, benderz (again!), Laulajatar, and RagnarBlackmane. The contests have been extremely fun to participate in, and I can't even imagine how difficult it is to choose a winner.

Thanks to everyone who has gone out of their way and spent their own money to give games to other users. It really is something special that you should be proud of. When you do it, you are making someone's day, week, maybe even year.

Thanks to tfishell for your tireless efforts to track down the status of games and their rights holders, and making very comprehensive lists. I am constantly impressed by your work.

Thanks groze for your passionate reviews of overlooked games that have made me buy them.
Thanks Senteria for the "Drawn and Guess the game!" thread.
Thanks to Astrobogulator for keeping up the "Games Finished" threads.
And thank you tinyE for just being awesome, hilarious, nice, and fun to read pretty much always.

edit - Oh, and thanks to everyone who has put up with me for the last three years.

Bump with a thanks to DampSquib for sending me a nice gift that I didn't even ask for, as well as his overall generosity in the forums.

A thanks to Licurg for his gifts. And no, he did not "Sacrifice"d me, yet!:)

yeah I was sad to see that DampSquib hasn't been thanked in this thread yet. Glad I'm not the only one!

This happened to me today and was about to post the very same message. It's amazing what people want to do for others around here. Thank you DampSquib from me as well! :)

Now that's difficult. There are so many swell people around here. So it's difficult to select only a few and I can only write an incomplete list: Sachys, foxworks, real.geizterfahrer, TinyE, Ian, Sazanamistyle, Khadgar42, rpgamer381 and many others deserve thanks, some for generosity, some for humour and original postings, and last but not least some for doing their best to cheer me up and give me moral support when I was really, desperately down last year. Thank you all, you make this forum a place I love to visit.

I logged in today to a wonderful surprise!

Greetings, Mr. Blackmane! I remember you said you would prefer to play this with the third, but consider also that, while waiting for the new installment and a powerful enough computer tu run it, you could experience all the story branches of the second with multiple playtroughs! I know this game is high on your whishlist, so I thought to gift it to you in sign of appreciation for everything you do here: (Witcher 2 gift code)
I hope you'll enjoy it at least a smuch as I did! :)
-Enebias

So I really must thank a thousand times Enebias for gifting me the sequel to what is one of my favorite rpgs of all time. Such amazing gestures of kindness are exactly the reason I love hosting giveaways, most people here are wonderfully nice fellow gamers.

Ahh, Enebias is really a sweetie, and one whom I don't see a lot of posts from!

So much for anonymity. -.-'
Well, I guess now it's my turn to thank a few fellows!
First and foremost, I would like to thank IAmSinistar and HypersomniacLive. They are not only awesome people whose insightful and useful comments made for a lot of good discussions, but they are also the main reason that brought me to interact more with the community. Without them, I wouldn't have met a lot of nice people and I would have probably moved on elsewhere, much to my loss.
I would also like to mention ddickinson and foxworks: their amazing generosity and positive personality make this a much better place for everyone!
Last but not least, thank you, Ragnarblackmane! Having a chat with him is always nice and his interesting historical anecdotes are always appreciated, plus he does not fear to openly speak his mind, something commendable in a world full of hypocrites. Moreover, Dwarven ale is always the best, hands down! Only, sometimes he speaks too much...

I should thank many other people, but there would be not enough room to name everyone! ;)

Thank you for the kind words, madame!
You know, the charm of a ghost stays in evanescence... besides, people start worrying if I show myself too much! :)
