I realize this isn't technically support related, but somehow I feel the need to say something.

This week, I have been looking for a game to buy.  I ended up (after some research) deciding on Space Rangers 2 Complete as my next game purchase.  My reluctance was related to the price of said game, (that is, at 40 dollars it seemed a bit steep), but in the end I decided, when I get paid next, I'm going to buy Space Rangers 2.

Just now, as I did my normal daily routine of checking certain websites for news, I came to https://www.galciv2.com/ and found out about the Stardog contest.  I said to myself, "Wouldn't it be great if I could win that 100 dollar prize, then I could get Space Rangers 2 and preorder Elemental for free, and have 10 bucks left over!"  Which was a nice thought but I also knew better than to think that I could actually find the Stardog before anyone else, I'm kinda slow when if comes to most things like that, and as a rule not very competitive.

Next, I came to http://www.impulsedriven.com/.  Yes, I check it every day, I'm also thinking of buying Company of Heroes and its expansion when they are released, so I always check the newest releases.  Imagine, if you will, deciding that you want something, your only hesitation is the price of that item.  Then, one day, someone walks up, taps you on the shoulder and says, "hey pal, I've got this thing for sale, would you be interested?" and it's the thing you wanted.  You ask him how much for it.  The answer he gives is 90% off the regular price.  Ninety percent.  NINETY PERCENT.  YOU CAN BUY IT FOR TEN PERCENT OF ITS REGULAR COST.  AND IT'S BRAND NEW, NEVER USED.

Needless to say, I bought it immediately.  For four bucks I didn't even need to wait for my next paycheck.

Thanks Stardock.

I love you.
