I would like to thank Blodskur for gifting me Wasteland 2, it was a lovely surprise that I was not expecting! :)

I would like to express my immense gratitude to DampSquib for leaving me speechless by gifting me a whole bunch of games from the Nordic promo that I had listed in the trade thread. I have been humbled on many occasions by the incredible generosity by other awesome GOGlodytes as can be witnessed in this thread, but DampSquib is probably one of the most prolific in terms of his contributions for solely bring joy and happiness to as many people as possible here on the forum time after time. :)

Please add a little green to St. DampSquib's post as a very small token of appreciation for his really thoughtful kindness and tremendous generosity to many folks on the this forum all year round. :)

With the holidays drawing closer I want to thank all the participants, helper, elves of the Secret Santa 2014, and of course especially Momo1991 for kating up the reigns and putting lots of time and love into it.

Now that we are approaching Christmas, I just have to mention the horde of crazy Santas that lately have been filling my PM box!

A giant thanks from the deepest of my ectoplasm to ddickinson, HypersomniacLive, budejovice and Grargar for all the consideration and kindness they have in my regard!
You people hit such an high spot in the awesomeness-meter to be beyond the concept of "coolness" itself!

Just want to thank everyone here for being a great community and a great place to hang out so thanks to all.

I just wanted to say a big thank you to Sage103082, Enebias, hummer010, HypersomniacLive, my Secret Santa, and madth3. For the wonderful gifts they gave me (some as Christmas presents, and some as sneaky, underhanded ninja gifts - I have not forgotten! ;-)), thank you all so much.

Dropping by to thank my extra-generous Secret Santa (who decided to be anonymous so I can't directly thank him >_< ) for leaving a lot more in my virtual stocking than I expected. Whoever you are, I wish you and your family a merry Christmas and happy New Year, and I hope your Santa left you some very nice gifts as well ;)

I'd like to thank @immi101 for his great help in figuring out how to unpack on Linux the mess of RAR encrypted packages which GOG started shipping for some recent games and which can't be unpacked with innoextract anymore.

I want to thank all and everyone that make this community enjoyable to me - I had a bit to drink earlier today, so will have to return to be more specific than this when my head is clearer.

Thank you dear fellow GOGgers, a very Merry Whatever you celebrate! :-)

Also have to give another shoutout to DampSquib, who surprised me this morning with another nice gift that I didn't even ask for. Thanks DS, and Merry Christmas! (I know, no longer Christmas Day, but I shall say it nonetheless.)

Please give him some +1 here:

I want to thank my Secret Santa for gifts that by far exceeded my expectations! WOW!

I want to thank TinyE for helping me out and gifting me a game.

A big +1 for him, please.

I wish to express my gratitude to the following GOG fellows:

- People who have helped me with my questions regarding game/site problems: HunchBluntley, Grargar, coxdr, rtcvb32, triock.
- People who have been generous to me outside of giveaways: DampSquid, Dischord and Tarnicus;

And some other fellows because of their giveaways which are massive, time consuming and I personally think helps very much to introduce and stimulate new members to participate more in the community:

- Sachys, foxworks and HypersomniacLive for the efforts they put in the best giveaway on the forum;
- cecil for his big contribution to "Open this thread";
- and Briareos262 for his "steamy" giveaways;

I wish you're all well and may your best wishes comes true!

Thanks to @petchema for providing very good hints how to work around a few annoyances in PlayOnLinux and Wine.

Thanks to the regulars in the Conversational Free-For-All thread for making my days brighter. I most often just lurk on these forums these days, but that thread and the awesome folks who frequent it always bring a smile to my face.
