AgentBirdnest: Well, it did in the movie (from which this screencap is from - Indiana Jones 4) :-p
And we all know that movies are true!
Oh I missed that reference. I've seen the first three but not the fourth. :P And yes, obviously! Movies would never lie to us. :P

ddickinson: I know you are hot, but please put on some pants next time. No one wants to see a naked male Moomin. :-)

The Fallout New Vegas reference to it was pretty nice.
Finding a skeleton with that hat in a fridge. :P

AgentBirdnest: Perhaps, but we have some awesome mountains and canyons here, so it's not too miserable. Or rather, it is miserable, but with a bonus.
Misery with a view...that's something. Kinda. -laughs-
Wow, way to many posts to try to reply to them all! So I'll just say that I'm glad most of you are doing well and I hope the rest of you get better very soon.
Going to be one very busy person for the next few weeks so cross your fingers and hope my stupid health doesn't get in the way.
*hugs waves and moderate weather for all*

Make sure it doesn't. >:(

Good luck with whatever you're gonna do in those few weeks. :P

Good afternoon, Mr Whitemane ! :-) **big hugs back**
I wish the best for your work with the kids... good luck !!

ddickinson: I am just trying to make a profit. Crow hugs are rare, so think of how much I can sell the IOUs for on eBay, or what I can trade for them on the trading thread. I could even split the profits with you. :-)

I can deal with cold very well, but not extreme heat. But luckily I live in a country that does not really have extremes of either.

Well if it makes sense, then GOG surly won't be doing it that way. Since when has GOG doing things that make sense. :-)

I wonder if it was a one time thing for the most part. A quick publicity stunt to get more customers. I can't see many publishers being okay giving away a free copy when they know many will buy the game again on here even on sale. Selling the game even on sale is better than giving it away for free. By not promoting it all the time, people might forget it is even there, or realist that few publishers are on board for the scheme. But who knows.
That wouldn't work, even with the idea of profit. Can't stand most people, let alone hug them.

Cold and heat can both be dealt with. Heat's just more annoying about it.

-laughs- Good point.

It's marketing. GOG's trying to shift solely rental store users into at least considering GOG as an alternative.

FearfulSymmetry: Oh wow, I just got a 9 (out of 10) for my master's dissertation! That's insanely high! I can barely believe it. :D
Congratulations. Unlike you, I'm not exactly surprised. ;)

Thanks! And yeah, I know I did well, but I was expecting an 8. This is higher than I thought I'd get. :P

Good morning, and good luck with the teaching thing. If you can manage to avoid duct taping one or more of them to a car bumper, everything should be fine. =)

Oddly nice weather, given what the news has been saying all morning... it's raining and all, but not so bad so far. Maybe my bookshelves will be delivered today after all!
Hope you're all having a lovely day, or the closest to it you're able. :)

Congrats! That's awesome! Not at all shocking, but awesome! :)

FearfulSymmetry: I'm so sorry to hear that. :( *big get well hug* I should give your body a stern talking to for causing you so much trouble.

Doing quite well. Still working on the last few essays and reports and such, so that's not very fun, but at least the end is in sight. And the weather's been great. :)

*huge thank you hug*
Thank you. I will be fine, I have a lot of medication that should help.

I was skimming over the pages I missed since I was away and I saw that you have a new place to live lined up, that is great news. I am so glad to hear you can finally get away from your terrible landlord. Hopefully things will keep looking up for you now that summer is finally here.

*big sunny hug*

AgentBirdnest: Pfft... You are being sexist >:-|
How so? Just because I prefer naked female Moomins over silly male Moomins does not make me sexist. In fact, you not supporting my world views makes you prejudice. So there. :-p

*big silly hug*

How about we make a Crow doll to trick them then. It will be one of those wax ones that look real. We will just sit it in front of a hard computer game and record you laughing like a mad man at the game so they will think it was you. They can hug you from being and they would never know. We profit, and you get your own wax works, everyone wins. :-)

Hopefully you will get your sale tomorrow, or Wednesday at the latest. The fact we have no Staff Picks is a good sign at least.

I don't think there will ever be a market for such a thing. EVER.

It'll happen eventually. Annoyed impatience waiting for it to start will be replaced by annoyed impatience at whatever timer setup gets used.

I'm sure everyone in this thread would buy one.

No they wouldn't. The thread people have better taste than that.

But... but... What am I suppose to do now with all these candles? I was going to melt them all and use the was to make your models. I am sure it would look completely like you. And by completely I mean nothing like it at all. :-)

I have been liking that they release new games sometimes during sales as it can make the dull sales a little more enjoyable for long time customers. But you are right that maybe it should have overlapped with Connect, given the publicity it got them and possible new customers. But then again, maybe they wanted a few days of new customers buying games at full price before sales started?
