Yeah, much ado about nothing O.o

WISHBONE'S TALE: PART FOUR POINT FIVE

Going back in time
There was one part of the tour I skipped in my tale, as I was not sure when I wrote it whether or not I was allowed to talk about it and post the pictures that ought to accompany the description of it. I have since gotten confirmation that it's okay for me to share that last missing bit of the tale, as well as some of the pictures I took, so here goes.

The GWENT streaming studio
After the tour of the CD Projekt RED floor of the building, we were guided outside and over to another, much smaller, building. We were told this was the studio they built for streaming GWENT matches. They opened the door, and we entered... a medieval fantasy tavern.

I expect some of you already know this. After all, they are already using the studio, so I guess some of you have already seen it on streams, but for the rest of you, here is a bit of a description, as well as some pictures of it.

It's... Well, it's a tavern, built of stone blocks and wooden beams. There is a bar, a fireplace, and a narrow winding staircase up to the first floor. There are tables and chairs, and of course some lights and camera mounts. It is a studio, after all.

That's all there is to say about it, really. Enjoy the pictures :-)

Nice. Thanks for getting the pics up, Wishbone. I've yet to get mine DLed off the phone... :P

That's pretty awesome!

They must be planning to stream a lot of GWENT to bother going to all that trouble...

Wow! Awesome pics, thank you for posting them wishbone!

So, when are we going to have a sequel to "6 community members went to GOG HQ"?
May I suggest "6 GOG staffers went to a GOGer home..."? :P

You seem to forget that GOG disclosing the information of who was invited was actually useful for the purpose that the visitation was happening in the first place.

I'll use Adaliabooks as an example since he already disclosed he was invited and he also fits my example perfectly. Suppose I* was one of the visitors. My very first question would be if they invited a few specific users, including Adaliabooks. If they didn't bother to invite the guy who created AdaliaEssentials I would seriously question if they were actually interested in knowing what improvements are needed in the website. I needed to know they weren't just doing a PR stunt.

* Disclaimer: I wasn't invited, but I am opting out of keeping this ultra secret information to myself. I don't hold value enough to be one of the invitees and I know it, and I am okay with it.

On the other hand, it is just as useful for GOG to sensibly disclose this information. They WANTthe 6 visitors to be certain that they are seriously trying to get input from the most adequate members to tell them where they can do better. They have a good reason to disclose it, and the NDAs take care of any possible indiscretions.

Which brings us to specifics. You vaguely mentioned that the 6 basically outed a few invitees without naming names. I want you to point out where exactly it happened, because I read the whole effing thread and have seen nothing of the sort. I am pretty certain of a few names that haven't appeared in this thread, but not because they said anything. I just know whom I would call if I were in GOG's shoes. They would be nuts if they hadn't called [redacted], [redacted] or [redacted]. Just off the top of my head.

You also seem to be utterly convinced that now the 6 Warsaw-goers have access to a list of our email addresses, every single PM any of us ever sent and the list of games each of us has in their shelves. I won't waste my time pointing out the absurdity of GOG going out of their way to divulge that information to them without any direct or indirect benefit. Instead I recommend you just ask Fables22 what do they know regarding users' personal information.

And maybe then this forum could be a bit less of a cesspit of pointless anger, toxicity and baseless paranoia. At least in this one thread.

Sounds awesome! Can we see a picture of the card?

I suppose so. It's not the greatest picture, because it's quite dark here now (the sun hasn't risen yet), and while the surface isn't exactly shiny, it still whites out most of it if I use flash.

Thanks. I suppose the crystal drawing is the same in all the 5 cards, right?

I can infer from what has been said in the thread that those two blurred writings in a small font below the username are your registration month+year and the tagline. It is not hard to read "Red herring". This card is pretty cool. As certainly was the whole trip. Congratulations to all Magnificent6.

#bitofenvy :)

6 cards, and I believe so, but the text underneath is different for each of us.

Thanks for posting those pictures.
Lovely Tavern, awesome idea.
