SCPM: I was about to say the same thing. Many losses and misfortunes in their history. I hear they have a saying that translates approximately to, "The average day is worse than yesterday but better than tomorrow."
I haven't heard that before... but updated my post with a brief history if misfortunes :P

blotunga: I'd put Hungary next to our Polish brothers...
Actually, most of CE nations have similar history as Poland. :p

Fever_Discordia: I... I was saying I was panic-downloading after finding out about Poland's past?
Why is everyone looking at me like that?
Do I need a CAT scan?
What?

Psyringe: The problem was that the thread title - without prior knowledge what the thread is going to be about - sounds like a complaint about something not working in GOG's interface, or at least can be read as such. Then we enter a thread about Polish history, which seems completely unrelated. Understanding how the thread title was meant originally took a while, after having misunderstood it the first time.

Likewise, it probably isn't / wasn't easy for you to see how we were (mis)understanding the thread title, since you of course knew what you wanted to say with it.

If it's still unclear, here's what you meant to say:
"I am now downloading all my games from GOG and archiving them"
And here's how some of us received it:
"Downloads and other features seem to have vanished entirely from GOG's shelf interface"
Ah I see - I should have said Archives-off maybe or just 'Archives' - I was using 'Archive off' as a verb as in 'to archive off' didn't even think about trying to read it the other way!

*edit* OK I've edited in an into to my first post - hopefully that should clarify WTF I was on about - sorry for the confusion!

Fever_Discordia: Be... cause GOG's servers are in Warsaw and looking at Polish history = ph33r?
This comment woke my curiosity and I confess my ignorance in the topic.
Does GOG only has servers in Poland?

Are we talking about politicians? They can, you know, screw anything, even light bulb in so many ways, to even Kamasutra will blush: they can screw it in, out, sideways, upside down, entirely, partially, possibly, impossibly, and, most certainly, wrong way. They also can create a commity, call a summit, impose taxes, add lught bulbs sex education, put a campaign against bulbs' racism, create a fund against bulb violence. They will even run media campaign against that well known "threat" who prevents bulb replacement and impose sanctions on that abovementioned threat, run a budget race to create "light bulb replacement warp drive", promising working prototype in next 20 years, but they will do that in the dark, because nobody of them won't going to move a finger to replace the bulb - this job is too stressing, and may undermine the whole importance of bulb-related issues solution.

Must be a big light bulb for two poles to screw in it. Shouldn't light bulbs be air-tight though? How did they get in?

No, they are using a third-party distributed server network - Akamai if I remember correctly, but I might be wrong. JMich will have more reliable information (or any of the blues, of course).

Makes sense. Thanks

I am the only one not expecting this to be a complaint thread but rather a thread chronicling the thread starter downloading all his GOG games?

Last I had checked it was Akamai for the paid games, and Amazon for the free ones. No idea if they changed them or not, has been a while since I last paid attention to it.
