SimonG: Yes, of course. It is pretty common knowledge on the forums and the others are just playing with you.

GOG has been bought by MS in a deal to enlarge the acceptance of Windows 8 and from Jan 3 on all GOG games will be available via the App store.

You can read about it here

You didn't make a fool of yourself. I ask stupid stuff like this all the time. If you wish you can aspire to be a dork, but you will never be 'King of the Dorks'. Thats MY JOB!!!

Don't mind the replies. Everyone here is like a weird uncle. After you get over that they're all wearing animal costumes and slapping each other with foam swords, you'll realize they're all nice guys.

Jan 3 is the last day of the Christmas sale, but not the last day GOG sells games.
Nobody did a fool of himself!, and I think is a valid and important question, and what best place to ask than GOG itself! ^_^
no, its not
Hey, why is bgrifter2003 "downrepped"? (is that the word?)

I'm guessing some people got frightened about the idea, then figured he did it on purpose, and went "playing with my heart, eh? not on my watch! nyah!" while clicking the minus button.

The word you're looking for is downreputationed.

That's too bad, because he wasn't trolling or something like that...

Don't be shy. You're among friends now. You can admit that you sometimes want to dress up as a horse and smack people with foam swords while shouting "How now? A rat? Gog, for a ducat, gog!". We all do. It's the glue that holds this community together.
Yes, gog.com will in fact close after Jan 3. This sale is just to clear out the remaining stock, as soon as there are no more games on the server cause they've all been sold gog.com will close shop.

Hey man, it's true that the question was kind of funny, and we were having some chuckles at your expense, but please don't feel bad. People mess around on Internet forums. ;)

GOG isn't closing; the Holiday Sale is ending Jan. 3.
