I didn't find any other questions like this so I'm assuming I'm in the minority here, but what exactly is the URL I should bookmark to be able to get back to GOG properly. Everything I've tried spits me to the main "coming soon" page. I have to go to /beta and re-input my email and authorization code (which FF is refusing to store) and then login after that.
Any advice?

That shouldn't happen... if you're being redirected to splash then I'd guess your cookies were removed (they store the access key to the beta). Maybe your web browser is set up to remove cookie files on exit or after some time?

That's definitely what's happening, but the only cause I can think of is moving between different machines. In lieu of fixing this, is there no way to get to a login screen without first going through the activation screen?

FF has this option to use automatic privacy data deletion and there is an option to delete cookies also. Have you checked that this isn't on? If you're using another machine, account or browser, it dosn't have necessary cookie installed when you come to the site.
So, check that your browser doesn't delete cookies on exit and also that it actually accept cookies.

Also be careful, as the key is limited. You need to make sure cookies are enabled and stored. Otherwise you'll end up de-activating it due to overuse.
