Few words about me
"Do not dwell in the past, do not dream of the future, concentrate the mind
on the present moment.", the old master said. iWi is fully concentrated on
the present making sure the actual Biz side of GOG.com makes sense and at
the end of the day will deliver a dollar or two. Avid Fallout fan, who spent
big part of his gaming life playing all parts over and over again.
My favourite games
Fallout, Fallout 2 (PC, Black Isle Studios, 1997 - 1998)
Michał “Mikee” K.
Biz Dev Team, working on GOG.com since April 1, 2007
Few words about me
Relentless and enthusiastic creator of all things crazy, less crazy,
ordinary and unsuccessful, with an emphasis on the former. ;) Advocate of
common sense and adversary of omnipresent corporate stupidity - also, or
perhaps mostly, within the gaming industry. Restless, ruthlessly
meticulous and demanding at work, privately the exact opposite. While
off-duty he is a skiing enthusiast, snowboarder and also a fan and tester
of German cars and highways.

Piotr “Destro” K.
Design & Development Team, working on GOG.com since April 2, 2007
Few words about me
Piotr K. is responsible for the idea and design of GOG.com website. Apart from being the evil Lich King / Mac fanboy (depending on who you'll ask), he oversees the team of designers and developers, pushing people to their limits with his sick attention to detail. When he's not driving others mad ;), he spends time in his super secret zen garden, drinking colorful smoothies and designing next-gen features for the website.

Piotr “Venom” M.
Design & Development Team, working on GOG.com since April 30, 2007
Few words about me
To deliver full power to the GOG.com website engine, Piotr M. speaks to it in machine language. In his quest for ultimate website performance, he never overlooks the power of simplicity, always against the "this is how everyone else does it" mantra. Aside from that, he spends his free time relaxing to the sound of our server fans.

Robert “Chamb” M.
Design & Development Team, working on GOG.com since August 16, 2007
Few words about me
Very few people know or remember his real name due to his membership in the clan of Design Ninjas. Aside from killing pirates, Chamb uses his skills and shady personality to maintain high standards set by Piotr K. and rest of the GOG.com team. He dreams about his own space, his own planet... created in photoshop... but he never has time to become The Creator.

Łukasz “Cook” K.
PR & Marketing Team, working on GOG.com since April 1, 2008
Few words about me
Using his Jedi Mindtricks, he's trying to make everyone eat, sleep, breathe and play Good Old Games. If looking for him you are young Skywalker, then you'll probably find him laying on the office couch, watching some of the latest games videos and trying to convince us that's part of his duties.

Tom “Vandal” O.
PR & Marketing Team, working on GOG.com since April 16, 2008
Few words about me
Tom is one of the mouthpieces at GOG.com – that means he gets paid to talk a lot and to pretend everything is better than it really is. Just kidding, seriously. Tom has spent his recent years working on PR for some great games like The Witcher, Neverwinter Nights, Galactic Civilizations II and a lot more… but he still wishes he could go back to his old 486 and play Tie Fighter all day long.
Support Team, working on GOG.com since May 5, 2008
Few words about me
An element of Chaos in the Ordered world of GOG.com. Wears a denim jacket and LOLs a lot. Sometimes speaks of himself in the third person or even in plural. Doesn't like to talk about his past (if asked, he replies that it's a different one every time, anyway) and tends to mumble weird, irritating songs in a gurgling, seemingly inhuman, language. Increases the average decibel count by over 9000, even when on idle. Often signs documents using the initials "R.F." or the word Legion. Loves cats, especially the ones from Cheshire. Thinks, that everyone is crazy. Everyone thinks that HE is crazy. When asked about this, he tends to answer "otherwise I wouldn't be here".

Przemek “Rostek” R.
Design & Development Team, working on GOG.com since June 15, 2008
Few words about me
The only bloke at GOG.com with a surname good enough to use as his nickname. Most of the day he's attempting to figure out yet-another-way of forcing Photoshop to tune up ye good ol' artworks. Being the grumpy young git, he lives by the motto "this ain't gonna work", which he calls "attention to detail" in his resume. After he's done with getting on other people's nerves, he floats away with his guitar to the recording studio for his recommended weekly dose of jazz-rock.

Piotr “Firek” S.
Support Team, working on GOG.com since June 26, 2008
Few words about me
When he isn't being swamped with fan mail from the Contact Us page, he persistently tries to convince everyone in the office that playing games for hours on end is "hard work" and "necessary for testing". Trained in the mystical arts of "WORK, YOU PIECE OF..." and having a nice bedside manner, Firek is the natural troubleshooter. It only stands to reason that he works as the main support guy. So if you've got a problem, and no one else can help, and if you can find him, maybe you can hire... Wait, what?

Marek “Tirpitz” L.
Support Team, working on GOG.com since October 15, 2008
Few words about me
He is here because every company needs a Techmarine. There are times when
the machine spirits need a more ethereal approach and attendance to divine
the proper means of mending their ailments. It is his sacred duty to
soothe them or raise their anger if need be. "Shouldst thou encounter any
digital welter, send a plea for help and a proper ritual shall be bestowed
upon thee."

Jacek “Resil” N.
Support Team, working on GOG.com since October 16, 2008
Few words about me
Full Metal Gamer. He knows and has played almost every game in the world. The alfa and omega, beginning and the end of PC and console gaming. Quiet and calm type of person but always helpful if you need to find the red key in the last level. The only little problem with him is that he lost his sense of reality a long time ago and lives a live in a world of one game or another. So if you meet a guy in an orange suit, wearing glasses and running with a crowbar, or spikey hair with an enormous sword that will probably be Resil. ;)

4 round slices good old games love, 1/2 pound sense of humor, 2 cups whole childishness. 1/3 cup theater love, 1/4 teaspoon empathy, 1 tablespoon madness, pinch of seriousness. Shaken, not stirred.

Few words about me
"A modern man;
A man for the millennium;
Digital and smoke free;
A diversified multicultural postmodern deconstructionist;
Politically anatomically and ecologically incorrect..."
This, pretty much, sums this guy up.
He is a proud member of the highly qualified and overzealous Support Team. Always there to help others... In understanding why Fallout 2 is THE best RPG evah. Jack of all trades... Master of none. Always on his personal crusade to fight evil... And people he doesn't like. A level 80 Paladin... Who never healed anyone else but himself (OK, there was this one time but it was a
misclick!).

Kamil “Neville” G.
Design & Development Team, working on GOG.com since May 26, 2009
Few words about me
Writes php and javaScript code. In his free time, he rarely missess opportunity to hit someone with a sword or armoured gauntlet (not only in games but for real as well). Being programmer, writer, sword fighter and gamer, he seems to fit typical GOG's employee features perfectly.
