<description><![CDATA[I download the file (twice) and in the first time, I activated it and run the setup. But it give me a corrupt file warning when I try to installed  and the system terminate the instalation. The second time I do nota activateit first, just run the set-up but it just freeze the installation at about when it was at 80% of completion. 


What am I doing wrong?


.........................Moderator Comment.........................

Unfortunately the  giveaway  is now over.  That may have something to do with being unable to tegister the roduct.  The  game has to be installed within a specified period for example, in the UK it's between 8am  to 8am the following day.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[downloaded the file and cannot find the 3 zip files - what am I doing wrong?


..................Moderator comment..............

The downloaded file is a zip file.  Once you open up the  zip file you get a read me, an activation module and a set up  file. however the  game giveaway is now ovr, so the activation module will no longer work.  Sorry.  If you'd posted  this before the giveaway ended I may have been able to help.  ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Mine showed 60 minutes when started also, but I have noticed that the 60 minutes stays at 60 minutes no matter how long I play.  Made sure I went over 60 minutes to be sure, right now it seems as if it is just a nuisance, not really limiting my time.]]></description>

download, extract, install...no problem...

activation module connected, brought me to the GGOTD site...no problem...

game, 60 minute trial...problem...   : (

no joy today, Whiterabbit...first GGOTD i couldn't register...uninstall, reinstall, tried install/activate &amp; activate/install...

my best guess: it kept requesting direct disk access, &amp; i kept blocking it...the games usually do not request that, but when they do &amp; i block it there's never been a problem (they all ran fine without)...

my problem was probably self-inflicted...lol...maybe some other community members security software was blocking that as well?...

the screensaver today also asked for direct disk access...i blocked it, &amp; it ran fine after a reboot...

both programs today said something about the "Outrix" company/corporation?...apparently, my pc doesn't play nice with them...

looked cute, &amp; i've never played mahjong...maybe next time...can't whine much over one problem in a couple years...
: )

thank you Gambana, GGOTD, &amp; Whiterabbit (who can finally go get some sleep after another weekend marathon)...


.....................Moderator Comment..................

No sleep for me yet Violet.  got  to go get a new  external hard drive.   I've got four  at the moment, totalling 3.75 Terabytes  (3750Gb) and they are almost full, plus all my HDD's on all my computers are also almost full as well.  I'm trying to take stock of what I have.  I don't trust DVD copying any mor because loads of my discs especially ones with images on them  throw up a cyclic redundancy error message when i try to access the discs, resulting in  quite a lot of files   lost.  So I need another external so that I can move the files around and  file everything sensibly, one disc for games, one for applications etc etc, lol


Most of the files i have are  game related, for example i have at least 700 Gb of files on one of the larger externals  just for one game that has (or had)  a large modding community because the game is now five years old.  A lot of my games   have modding communnities that create extra content, which makes those games very good value for money because there is so much extra free content.  In some cases so much so that you could never  explore all of the  extra stuff.  I'm also a bit of a kleptomaniac when it comes to games.  :) 

Sorry you weren't able to  get this weekends game.  As you say it's probably a security issue thats stopped some from being able to register this game.  Personally I don't think its a great loss because  there is  (as the guy above says) a large free   base  for Mahjong games, some of which are better than  yesterdays giveaway.  To be honest theres only so much you can do with a game of solitaire mahjong.  most games are basically the same with  just the tile imagery changed, plus in the case of games like yesterdays giveaway a side story and   mini game.

have a nice week.

<description><![CDATA[60 minutes of free game should not be named GameGiveAwayOfTheDay. Luckily there are many Mahjongg types out that are always free. It's sad that I had to learn about their trick the hard way, but humans can always learn from their mistakes, after the mistake they know how to prevent it should it happen again - never before.


......................Moderator Comment....................


  It does unfortunately seem that  quite a few  community members  had problems activating this game.  But  I can assure you there is no tricks involved.  The giveaway project has given away hundreds of  games away over the three years since it  started back n Dec 2006.  It's unfortunate that a few   have not been able to register the program for whatever reason.  There are generally  a few thousand  downloads  for each giveaway every day that it runs.  There are perhaps  around 20 of those that haven't been abe to register the game today.  I personally  got the game registered with no problems on three different computers.

If I'm reading your post right your saying  never again  - like you mean you'll never bother to download another game giveaway.  If thats so  you'll be missing out on  lots of future games.  It's obvious from the number  of members that were unable to registert this game that there was something wrong with the registration process.  I've never seen so many members unable to register a game before.  Someone mentioned that  the game  tries to change the operating system somehow.  Maybe your security prevented it doing so and thus you  couldn't register the game. (just a though).  In any event you're right, there are  hundreds of mahjong games available for free download.  See Grayloxs post for  a link to Caiman's, where  theres three pages of them.  There's also a link in the forums  somewhere that links to a site where you'll find  a lot more.  (You may find it in the free games synopsis)]]></description>
