Well, it's going to be that time of the year again where I'm getting officially a year older. So I thought, in good old GOG tradition, I'll make a giveaway :) Please read the following very carefully!


Requirements: min. 1rep and joined before december2013.

To enter: Pick 1 game from the list below for someone other than yourself. Please post the gamename in bold and link me to a post of the person you are entering for. Please note, that each person can only be entered once and posts with an entry are not permitted to be edited! Once you make a choice it's final, so think carefully ;P Also, please tell me why this person should win/play that particual game.

Once you have entered for someone you are allowed to tell everyone which game you would have liked to win, but only then! If you do it before you will be disqualified! More than one entry for someone will disqualify them and the poster that didn't play by the rules!

The prizes:

Broken Sword 5 - the Serpent's Curse Season Pass
Heretic Kingdoms: The Inquisition
I Have No Mouth And I Must Scream
Jade Empire: Special Edition
King of Dragon Pass

The giveaway will end on my birthday, next week thursday. ( To give everybody enough time to make their choice it's starting a little early this year.)

Alright, hope this will be fun and surprising...good luck to you all :)

[Edit1] If you forget something in your nomination post ( eg.: the link, etc.) just make another post to provide it. There is no limit on how many posts you can make, but the one post in which you enter for the person you picked the game for should not be edited. Same goes for when you want to respond to someone for whatever reason, post away, just don't edit the nomination post.
That being said, for my own sanity, I would appreciate all the entry relevant info in the same post, of course ;)

[Edit2] Added a list with nominations so far up to the point of when I posted the list here: http://www.gog.com/forum/general/make_your_choice_giveaway/post72

I nominate ggf162 for Dragon Age Origins: Ultimate Edition since in This post/thread he was wondering whether to get DA:O or TA and ended up with the latter since the sale on DA:O ran out before he could pull the trigger. I also happen to think it's an awesome game and since he's interested in it, I feel he should experience the goodness therein.

I don't want any of the games on the list, just wanted to nominate ggf162.
I am in for Chimerical to win The Dig on Steam because I know for a fact that is the only reason he will ever use Steam ever again ;-) Plus I have had a ton of fun playing his recent GA!

A link!

Hmmm... an interesting one to consider K!

I'll have to have a good think as there are some gems on there some good people i know from here would enjoy - but who to enter for with what game... I shall return!
Thanks for the giveaway!

I nominate Momo for The Walking Dead: Season 2! She seems like she enjoys a good story, and if she gets it and doesn't have Season 1, then she'll be inspired to play TWO great games! Win-win :D

If someone wanted to enter for me, I'd like to win Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade (been on a bit of a DOS adventure binge lately), but I've been fortunate in giveaways as of late, so if someone else wants it, vote for them first.
edited: as it turns out Triock already has IHNMAIMS, so please disregard this entry, my apologies.

Let's see... How about Triock for I Have No Mouth And I Must Scream? He entered a [url=http://www.gog.com/forum/general/sinistar_gifts_i_have_no_drm_and_i_must_play/post4]giveaways for it. Of course he might already have won it since then and wouldn't I look stupid, huh, but there's GOG forum user posts search functionality for ya!

I'll enter mrcrispy83 for Theme Hospital, seeing as they've expressed an interest in the game prior: http://www.gog.com/forum/general/miss_the_sale_break_your_budget_want_a_free_game_come_on_in/post480

If someone were to enter on my behalf, Broken Sword 5 would be a good choice.
I would like to enter for oasis789 for the game Monkey Island™ 2 Special Edition: LeChuck’s Revenge™
because he would like the game as he stated Here he should win it because its simply an amazing point and click game good humor and everything you would want from a point and click game I myself am also a huge fan of it.

As for myself I would really love to experience the game Jade Empire: Special Edition it is one of those games I played but never finished so I would like to go back and finish what I started
Whoops, seems I goofed and didn't read the rules properly :/ Can't go back and fix the bold, but here's a post to one of momo's posts (deja
vu?) http://www.gog.com/forum/general/make_your_choice_giveaway/post3

All right, put me down for The Walking Dead: Season 2 for Ovaltine Jenkins

I am choosing this because:

a) he seems to go through quite a number of games (see link). Chances are that he'll actually play it.
b) he's clearly a fan of adventure games - note the avatar and there's a bunch of adventure games in his 2013 list.
c) he presumably enjoys Telltale's games - he finished Episode 1 of Wolf Among Us twice.
d) He's already played The Walking Dead: 400 Days, so he's all ready to play the second season.

I hope he hasn't already prepurchased the game D:

BTW: Don't nominate me for anything, I already have what I want from K_1269's list.

I would like to enter for dr.schliemann for the game Broken Sword 5 - the Serpent's Curse Season Pass .

I remember a while ago dr.schliemann very kindly traded with me for Broken Swords 1-4 on GOG, and I quite think this will be a very nice addition to his collection.


Thank you, K_1269 for your generosity!


Among the prizes, the walking dead season 2 interests me the most, and I look forward to picking it up once all episodes are released.
link, I vote for 23rd, would probaby play Heretic Kingdoms: The Inquisition.
23rd mainly likes strategy games, perhaps a rpg will apatise that itch. Plus the game is new.
oops.

In the interests of this not being misconstrued in any untoward way, what would have, in better circumstances, been an entry for you-know-whom shall be duly blanched, with just a brief note of thanks to our good host for the well-conceived if not quite smoothed out giveaway. Let's hope these great games find great and deserving homes :-)
