Not really -- he has the courage to publicly admit his own mistakes, and the sense of humor to laugh about it. And on top of that, the generosity to give away the spare game code. All admirable qualities.

His brain is still Swiss cheese, though. But we all get there, sooner or later. :D

This is for you

at least you owned up to it so, you get a funny story out of the deal and you now hold in your hands a thing that could really make one strategy-RPG fan really happy :)

Lord knows I've done more bonehead things and gotten much less in return for my idiocy :P

Thanks for mentioning that. I have it in my library but had no idea it's similar to Banner Saga. Should probably give it a try some time.

That's actually the biggest difference between the two: in Banner Saga, you don't gather resources by wandering around the map collecting them. You do have to manage resources, but it's through buying (sometimes finding) them via your currency (which is based on renown). Been a while since I played it so I may have some details wrong, but it's definitely not like E:C where you're wandering the map trying to gather the goods.

Seems i'm in august company, done the same, probably will again too :/
Gift it to someone who has it on their wishlist, no other ideas apart from the norm of refund or giveaway.

You can either flagellate yourself for eternity or either gift it to somebody who wants to play it !
You can be a moron or a good and generous guy, depending of your choice ;)

Script schipt,where do you people get these ideas of a script? lolz.

How about sending this code to a person from support that helped you?
GOG staff prabobly will not accept the gift but for sure it will raise a smile.
Thanks for sharing the story.

Huh, that's not dumb, i will tell you what is dumb....

some 20 odd years ago i owned a car that had a real key - no button.

So its possible to accidentally lock your keys in the car, which i used to do occasionally and refused to learn my lesson prom previous incidents of doing it.

Then i have to spend 2 hours trying to break into my car, using a piece of wire jiggling inside the door method. Not easy because the car was a Subaru with lock nobs on the side of the door not the top of the door.

I noticed that i usually always have my wallet in my pocket when i lock my keys in the car.... so i had the bright idea to put a spare key in my wallet!

About a month later i locked my keys in the car again and then proceeded to spend 2 hours breaking in - once i finally broke in and sat down in the seat, i felt my wallet in my back pocket and then remembered i had the spare key in there the whole time!!!!!!!!!!!!

So how dumb is a guy breaking into his car with a spare key in his back pocket the whole time???

This weekend you say? I guess that means I missed a sale for this. Was it a good discount?

I liked the first one, but I've been waiting for a decent discount to appear before jumping on it.

To show how awesome GoG.com is, I got an email from them... offering to refund my money.

I do wish they'd get rid of rep or the buttholes abusing it, but man these guys are teh awesome.

I would recommend this site above ALL others, bar none, to anyone interested in purchasing games. Steam...pppffffttt.

You're number one GoG. No other store, brick and mortar or e-store, comes close. Thank you.

Oh i just remembered something else stupid....

Me and two friends going out in my boat.

got to the boat ramp and realized forgot boat battery.

So had the bright idea to borrow car battery.

But car battery had small terminals so the boat terminals were too big.

So we had to shove sticks and rocks to wedge the terminals so it would work, damn hard but eventually it worked.

Then i jumped in the car and tried to start it to reverse the boat down the boat ramp - no battery! DEEERRRR

Ok it was so hard getting the battery fitted in the boat we decided to try and man handle the boat down the boat ramp.

Heave ho - then we pushed the boat straight off the trailer on to the ground!!!!

Broke the winch trying to get it back on the trailer - had to spend another 2 hours fixing that problem.

Eventually got the boat in the water, arrived at the fishing spot, cast line - then immediately it started raining!!!!

Packed up, driving home - car breaks down in the middle of a major intersection.

Have to be towed home

What a lovely days fishing..... pretty standard really.

You know you're not supposed to start getting too drunk to fish until AFTER you get the damn boat in the water, right?! ;)

hahahaha, if only we were drunk, then i would not have to remember how stupid we all were!!!!

On the other hand., i would probably wake up the next day and say;

"dude, where's my boat?"
