    No. You didn't beat me. I thought about it and left it to Spalls. He's
    been grumpy about that lately.

    So you beat Spalls. Do you feel good about yourself now? ;^)

    I clicked the link to take a look at the game and got a debug screen
    that indicated the game had already been claimed. o_O ?

    I only received the email from GOG just a few minutes ago, close to
    four hours after your post. It's obvious you and GOG are conspiring
    against me.

    No. You didn't beat me. I thought about it and left it to Spalls. He's

    Yup, same here - "obviously a major malfunction". Extra points if you
    can guess the reference, those four words have been etched in my memory
    since I first heard them live on TV all those years ago.

    Heh, I got GOG's e-mail this morning but didn't bother to go to the
    newsgroup to share it. I was sure someone already posted it. :P
