Please imagine Jed's Vacation and give us a glimpse by writing a Postcard from Jed to The Forum!
Thank you Ponczo J for the cheesy fact ^°

$5 game from a catalogue for a random winner with imagination.

Only 10 entries and 4 days. Tick tock "I have not ticked my last tock yet!"

Dear GOG forum users, all of you are a real pain in the ass

Dear you and whatever username you currently used, I know you try your hardest to get your main account to be deleted. But rest assured I'm not the one who will give you that satisfaction.

From Jed, who now free from this hellhole

“Jed had planned it months in advance. A 3-week travel all around Europe, with his wife. Starting from his hometown in Poland, he and his wife would visit many countries and see many wonderful marvels! The Little Mermaid statue in Denmark, the Stonebridge in England, the Belem Tower in Portugal, the Alhambra in Spain, of course the Eiffel Tower in France (though that would be a bit expensive for his paycheck!), the Colosseum in Italy, the Parthenon in Greece, seeing the many beautiful buildings in Saint Petersburg in Russia, and ending up at the Trakai Island Castle in Lithouania, before returning home with his wife.

But his mother-in-law told him that her daughter would prefer a new SUV car. So, all his travel dreams were thrown out of the window.”

Sorry it was a bit (or a lot) off subject, but I liked better that Jed's suffering! :)

From the breathtakingly beautiful Spanish island of Mallorca, greetings!

For the first time in what seems like my entire lifespan, I had finally been granted permission to experience true bliss; a great escape of sorts. I had been unburdened by the unceasing stresses of my occupation. Within the past few days, while lying under the all-encompassing rays of sunshine, I had even begun to forget the log-in credentials for my GOG staff account.

Unfortunately, hours ago, my fleeting joy had been interrupted, as there had been a surge of urgent voice messages from Warszawa. It had become quite clear that my supposed newfound peace had been nothing but an illusory self-preserving manifestation of the mind. Regrettably, out of necessity, the planned extended trip would be cut short.

Patrons (and some whom I would not hesitate in referring to as 'friends') of GOG, I shall soon mark my return. -- king_kunat (Jed)

Generic greeting,

Flowery introductory statement. Expression of disbelief at well-known aspect about well-known tourist attraction. Sidenote informing reader of writer's presence at location of aforementioned tourist attraction. Pointer to pictorial side of postcard. Statement utterly devoid of sincerity relating to reader not being present in aforementioned location. Obligatory statement regarding the weather.

Concluding remark displaying half-hearted attempt at wit.

Dear GOG Forum,

During my Visit to EpicStan I was arrested for protesting against DRM and am now writing from the Gulag.
Please send a cake, a file, a rope, and some offline installers.

Thank you.
Jed.

Hi GOG-Forum

As you can see, I, in the shape of the GOG-bear, are relaxing on a remote tropical island. The sand is perfect, the sun is intense, but bear-able in the evening. Only the moisture really curls my fur!

Have a good time on the forum. But please don't try to reach me. I'm on vacation, so I'm taking a break from forum politics and bugs and DRM discussions and everything!

Bear-hugs to all of you
Jed

Dear GOG forum inhabitants!

When being on vacation in Indonesia, I wanted to make a selfie with the monkey and it stole my phone! The main problem is that it's only device I use to play games, especially for GOG account (I don't have any PC), so its credentials are gone too. Police says they know it, it's very smart and often steals tourist's phones. They also gave me the photo (it's attached) and say it'll be very hard to catch, so I don't know if I get any opportunity to connect with you.
P.S. If somebody'll write from my account here, be careful: most likely, it's the monkey.

Have a nice vacation, don't make my mistake!
Jed

Dreamlists Goggers!

My vacation has reached the halfway and so has my dreamlist.
The weather has been wonderful! Storm and heavy rainfall has made us isolated from others,
therefore there has been the best opportunity to power-up old consoles and play some old classics (currently on dreamlist!).

Hope the weather stays the same so I can empty my backlog as much as possible, without others trying to drag me outside
into participating their dull activities. N.B. They haven't yet made a dreamlist.

Best Wishes!
Jed

P.S. Dreamlist.

Oh dearest GOG forum!

I'm on vacation, but without you, my love, this foreign place feels void and unremarkable. We have been separated for what, only two weeks? But it already feels like eternity to me, like being left to starve in a desert. But the thoughts of you keep me going, you truly are my oasis. I terribly miss your embracing warmth, your witty remarks and classy jokes. You are always there for me, patiently waiting when I'm not.
Yesterday evening, I felt particularly homesick. So I heated up a can of spam, but it just wasn't the same and couldn't ease my painful longing.
I'm counting the days till we reunite.

Yours forever <3
J

Jed is suffering, but why ?

( a very obscure reference there )

Dear Goglodytes,

My car had a flat tire, our flight was canceled when we arrived at the airport (airline strike!), a day later, when we arrived at our destination, a child puked on my shoes on the shuttle bus, and one of our suitcases turned out to be a swap (don't ask what's in it!). To make matters worse, millions of mosquitoes and grasshoppers are hatching in our area right now, but I'm still enjoying my vacation to the fullest.

How I manage it, you ask? All you have to do is answer the questions I get via the GOG chat for a single day. And yet, I still miss you... somehow.

Best,
Jed

PS: Dark clouds are gathering on the horizon...
