I had a notepad file filled with links to the wishlist, some of which no longer lead to their original entries. What's the deal? For example:

http://www.gog.com/wishlist/games/assassins_creed_brotherhood
http://www.gog.com/wishlist/games/assassins_creed_revelations

Why do they now redirect to Assassin's Creed III? I remember that Brotherhood and Revelations had quite a few votes that now seem to be lost. Someone already created another entry for Brotherhood and I just created one for Revelations but many of the people who originally voted probably won't bother doing so again. How many other wishlist entries have disappeared as well?

A sign of things to come? They did just add some classic Ubisoft to the library, maybe they are in the process of adding AC, though I would have expected that to lead to a "wish completed" not deleted.
I just wonder if it's a bug of some kind.
It seems like there's been some kind of odd mergings going on. I noticed this a few weeks ago when the wishlist entry for Hexen 2 vanished. So this link:

now leads to this wish:

Is it merging or just redirecting? I doubt the votes from the missing entries are carried over. Is there some reason behind this or is it a result of a bug? I can't imagine why anyone would purposefully merge Brotherhood and Revelations with Assassin's Creed III. If GOG wants customers to continue using the wishlist (most don't bother), deleting entries (that are often the originals, not duplicates) with hundreds or even thousands of votes is not the ideal way to encourage them.

The person who's responsible for redirecting ACB and ACR to AC3 should get his/her info right. If those have to redirect to another AC title, it should be AC2.
It's good their cleaning up the wishlist as there's definitely need for that. But if they merge entries, they should also merge the votes for those entries.
To be honest, if they can't get merging of site features right, why do we expect them to get merging of game titles right?

Hit ctrl+f, type "Assassin's Creed", click the top entry, hold shift, click the bottom entry, merge all. Just another normal day in GOG's office^^
Are they manipulating the wishlist again? 0.0

It's part of their "We listen to your feedback" campaign. We complained about the unbundling so they're trying the opposite now and bundle random wishlist entries xP

Hehehehehe

That deserves +1
I would be surprised if Ubi renounce to DRM for the whole AC series.
Is it possible the missing wishlist entries are still in the system somewhere and could be restored?
