We're giving away 100 games a day to our users to celebrate our 5th birthday!
For the last 5 years we've been doing our best to bring the best games in history to your home computers. Now, we're celebrating our birthday, and we want you--our users--to have a blast! That's why for the next five days we'll be giving away 100 games a day via our different channels (the forums, social media, YouTube). The details of each giveaway will be revealed on day to day basis, so make sure to drop by daily and see what are we up to.
Today, we've planned something special for our followers. Here's what you need to do to enter the 100 free games draw: First, you need to [url=http://j.mp/followGOGonYT]follow the GOG.com channel on YouTube. Do you know our weekly guide to new releases, promos, and special features, This Week on GOG? The show returned to your screens after the summer break last Friday. The second requirement to enter the draw is to leave a comment under the recent episode:
<iframe width="590" height="443" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/j_XfpcLJE2U?rel=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>
What kind of comment? Well, The Enigmatic T, who voices the show, happens to be extremely vain. Write an original compliment about his voice. That will be the second, and final thing you need to do. Just please, no obscenity. Out of all the people who do this, we'll pick 100 users who will be sent a $9.99 gift-code (via YouTube PM).
You have time until tomorrow, that's Thursday, October 3, at 2:59PM GMT to enter the giveaway, as at that time we'll be moving to another communications channel with a new set of rules.
EDIT:

Have you participated in one of our 5th birthday contests, but are still waiting for its conclusion? We're a bit overwhelmed by the number of entries, as this is the ongoing biggest series of giveaways in the whole of GOG.com history. Please be patient, well sort it all out, eventually, and everyone who was lucky enough to win something will be notified. Sorry for the delay!

Nirth: I've noticed that too, it really blows.

Cavalary: Just ignore those requests? Say you don't want to use your real name, then close the next page from the X in the corner. Works for me, just says it'll ask me again later, which it sure does, but gives me I think at least a week between requests.
It won't let me click the X.

I've tried. It doesn't work.

You got another comment waiting for you on YT. I seriously don't know how the hell you'll sift through everything, guys. Probably with random.org and the number of posts/tweets :D

That's weird... Tried different browsers?

Ctrl-R for refresh? That's worked so far for me (because the thing doesn't appear on every page load, though every third or fifth is still damned annoying).

Liked, subscribed, and commented. Good luck to everyone!

Well... this went to the YouTube comments too, but since it's the topic of discussion here...

It's just that you've got a international audience - and tho I'm not the worst english speaker/listener I have to focus hard on your voice to catch your last highspeed commentary. Take this verse as my token of constructive criticism:

To mighty Enigmatic T of gorgeous tone
With lighting speed your voice does roam
As much we all your voice adore
Please slow it down, I must implore ;-)

Soyeong: At first glance I read it as, "Write an original complaint about his voice".
Ha ha, the comments on that would have been more interesting to read, though it could get nasty being YouTube and all.

I tried using one of my throwaway gmail accounts to sign in and comment and it started all that nonsense about using my real name. Something which I couldn't opt out of doing (no cross like with my other main account I use for YouTube). Then it brings back Google+, which I already opted out of, so I had to get rid of it again.

Bottom line: no thanks. I've entered twice, and spamming on Twitter was bad enough so that's fine. Forget about Facebook.

The voice that can make the sirens ashamed and fall silent....
The voice that will be missed by thousands pair of ears every week....

Listening to The Enigmatic T always brings to mind those radio commercials from the old days; they always sounded to me like small theatrical pieces delivered with a single breath and I get that same vibe from TET's tone and art of delivery.

"TET is a beautiful white man who don't need no speech therapy!"

Oof. Just tried my hand at a poem and of course the Youtube comment system butchered its spacing. Don't want to enter twice for fear of cheating, but it's out there (my youtube name is the same as here). Cheers.
