I need to use two pcc's today to fill my card.  I've waited until I finished the main game of A Christmas Carol so I wouldn't be distracted by something new and shiny.  But I finished chapter six earlier today and just finished writing my diary, so it's time for a treat.

I got Fantasy Mosaics 5 and Gizmos: Spirit Of The Christmas.

oscar -- 8 of those 11 days probably weren't business days.  BFG gives everyone a week off between Christmas and New Year's.

I was going to use my CE coupon and a CS coupon to get 2 games today and fill a card.  I "bought" the CE and then went to buy the SE.  It wouldn't take my coupon code.  I looked at the order and the CE coupon (which had been applied to the CE) was now switched to the SE.  It was a good thing I was using coupons or I probably wouldn't have noticed!

Lol sun, you don't want to get him too hooked and using up your time.

Lily, no I took the holidays into account.  There have been 8 real business days since I sent my missive off. As for time after Xmas until the new year, who knows what sort of staff they even have full time or what sort of holidays they now take.  I don't think this is the BFG of yore. At one time I thought it would be a fun place to work. I think because it wasn't a game complainant that they could just send a coupon for it went to the bottom of the pile.  I can see them in the  future reverting back to how they did game complainants.  I imagine the amount of coupons they send may be getting out of hand. I could see them auditing and starting back to the way it was when they removed the game you are complaining about from your purchase history when they refund.

That is my point because you can be sure that people are abusing this, it's probably fairly easy when someone complains to go in to the history and disable the game.  They used do this.  You can bet dollars to donuts according to some things in the forums, coupons are being given and the games are being replayed, or the thing being complained about did not render it totally unplayable, an inconvenience and annoyance yes. Should the player be compensated for this? If they have completed the game?  If they get a refund the game should be taken away. There are always people out there looking to take whatever advantage they can. My thought is that if the trend continues it will negatively impact everyone with price increases or a reduction in games or who knows what else.  I don't think if they track the incidences of complainants that it is making the testing any better.  The game I just played there were was a large amount of issues with, yet no patch or rebuild.  I guess the developer has to weigh out the cost effectiveness against the number of people affected and if it is not in their interest they don't do it.  although in the long run to me it would make me a little less likely to purchase their games without a thorough look at the tech threads. I do expect a refund as the errors in it rendered the bonus sections unplayable.  If I had of been able to play them I would not expect a refund even though there were issues in the main game as I was able to work around them. 

Phantasmat does have the M3 option.  I think I am one of the few that did not like this game.  It took me two goes to complete it. 

League of Light Witches Harvest was like deja vu for me.  the story was a healer that couldn't save her daughter and was using black magic to bring her back.  I played a game not long ago, same story but insert little boy.  It was a pretty new game starts off with you going to see your friend and her soon to be husband, she of course gets hurt hubby ends up being a prince or something that gets whisked off to some nether world where he used to live by dad.  Anyone?  Does this ring a bell?  It's bugging me I can't remember it.
