Hello

I have been meaning to ask something like this for quite a while but I never could really find the answer on the forums or anywhere on the website so I'm making this thread

Over the time that I have been gaming, and since I joined GOG in general I have Acquired and accumulated a very nice amount of various Videogame bonus materials

these include:

Artworks
Postcards
Comics
Maps
Soundtrack CD's
"Making of" DVD's
And other various little things

Now...since I do all of my PC gaming right now pretty much digitally I have no real, actual use for all of these things, technically I could just sell it all on Ebay...but that would be too much hassle for me and where's the fun in that? ;)

So I thought to myself...instead of all of these things just sitting around in my room without any real purpose...why not put them to good use? And then it hit me - Why not send all of these beautiful things to the GOG.COM Office? I have many various things from many various PC games, both old and new and they would make wonderful bonus materials here on GOG for many PC games (both present and future releases)

So the reason why I made this thread is quite simple:

I would like for an official member of the GOG Staff to provide me with a Postal Address of where I should send my package with goodies to (Either in this thread or through a PM!) Since the things I wish to send are not heavy/big and are simply paper/CD's the package should be relatively small (Approximately the size of a Playstaion Move starter pack)

Once I receive an Address from an official Staff member and gather all the materials that I want to be included, I will send it in a nice, wrapped up package to Poland :)

Hopefully I'll be able to provide you people with pictures before that as well

Thank you for your time!

Roman

Thought, would they actually be allowed to distribute them if they don't have rights to whatever game who's content you send?
I'm gonna guess that there would be some legal issues wrapped up with this. They wouldn't just be able to throw them up for download. Still, I like the way you think :3 +1
GOG has asked before for game materials if we have them. I actually have some old wallpapers for games GOG sells and that I don't think you can find anymore (the game's sites having been down for ages), I guess I should get off my ass and send them along...
Cool idea.

hmm.. wouldn't it be much easier to just simply send PM to TET?

Well technically yes, I have thought about that (as well as writing an email to users@gog.com) but I think this way I'll get a bit more coverage and there's a bigger possibility to receive a reply from other GOG Staff members as well

Coverage? Anyway, I think TET is here in charge so PM will be the fastest possibly way to gain his attention / solve your problem. I do not think you need reply from other staff members. :)
Just don't get flour on any of the items. That would be one package I wouldn't open. :)

Nice sentiment. I'd send them a bottle of bourbon.

Maybe to encourage other members to do the same, if they have stuff.
... and next Christmas we could snow GOG under postcards from all over the world

If you think sending them to Europe is too much of a chore, I'd be glad to take them off your hands :D

I sent TET a PM asking for an address to send a seasons card at Christmas. Didn't get a reply till after but if you will excuse the pun they were a bit "snowed under" with their own Christmas stuff and the contests here.

As for getting a blue in here to see this how about we flag a post enough for them to look?

Edit: Yes that might be considered abusing the rep system, no i don't care
