<description><![CDATA[RE moderator comment for Comment No.88 ...

Stephen- Sorry for the confusion. I was not implying that you should delete the game. What happened is that I was only just doing what I normally do each fortnight or thereabouts: removing previously downloaded GOTD/GGOTD setup packages. They are no longer useful after the giveaways are over anyway, and I usually send them to the recycle dustbin en masse.

It was then that I had AVG flag every single one as they headed for the dustbin on my desktop. My first thought was that I was having yet another glitch with Vista, and that something was amiss with the AVG-Vista relationship on my system.

I also scanned the installed files and there is NO VIRUS. Thus, as others stated, it's the "wrapper" that's nicked. (Oddly, I don't understand why it's behaviour is ignored as the "wrapper" "phones home" which should trigger every antivirus software as a potential threat - not defined - just a general threat where one has to "OK" allowing contact to wherever the "wrapper" connects to.)

The next morning, I read comments on yesterday's giveaway to discover that EVERYONE using AVG was having EVERYTHING flagged (LOL) :0 - just like me! 

Therefore, the problem MUST be with the latest virus definitions from AVG! And it's not just a general threat, but something defined - supposedly.

How could EVERY previous giveaway setup file, including my new favorite Be A King II suddenly have a virus AFTER AVG already passed it!?! Rubbish.

I do believe you'll have to start each giveaway with a disclaimer regarding AVG, at least until this mess is resolved over the Channel at AVG. Put on my name as a long term GGOTD user that this must be an error at AVG.

Can you edit or remove my comment No.88 as I don't want anyone to believe I am discrediting ANY of the giveaways - I'm not.

Also, I sincerely hope whomever moderates over at GOTD, place, as COMMENT No.1 this same AVG disclaimer, perhaps with testimonials from longterm users such as myself! If they do not do that, then quite a few users, especially casual users and "newbies" are going to get their knickers in a twist over some silly mistake at AVG until this is resolved.

Too many people will see the red screen, then not bother any more from that point on.

In addition, I had to make an exception within AVG, JUST to install the game. As a result of this and trying to analyse what was happening, I had not the time to try the game enough to make an evaluation / review of it - sorry.

Good night and take care! Stephen, thanks once again for moderating this page, making excellent reviews and dealing with the problems. Cheers.

P. S.  I am keeping some of the old setup files at hand and shall keep testing them as AVG sends new definitions. I promise to let you know when this rubbish from AVG is resolved. I HOPE that is SOON!

<description><![CDATA[Installed fine on XP SP3, no virus flags. Excellent 'block game' (prefer Da Vinci though) for the first 15 puzzles but the gold coins and the countdown clock kills it dead in its tracks. Thanks for the firs 15 puzzles but will now uninstall.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[As C.J. in "PS" wrote, I also have the German AVG Anti-Virus Free Edition 2012. I think, he is right. It seems to be a problem in AVG Virusdefinitions. I turned of AVG for 10 minutes and ran the setup-file and installed the game. After that, no virus was found in the extracted files.

<description><![CDATA[There's a great deal to like about Circus Pomché - the concept, graphics and music are all excellent. I strongly recommend this game to anyone who enjoys puzzles, and isn't in a huge hurry to make progress. Since this game is 3D, I can only play it for about half an hour at a time. It will probably take me months to finish the whole game.

There are a couple of things about Circus Pomché I'd like to change. Some clear controls on the image rotation would be helpful. The rotation is really quick, and the vertical axis controls aren't intuitive. Like all 3D games, the rotation in this game made me feel a bit queasy, so I'd like some fine control over it.

And then there's the baffling logic! Once you reach a certain point in the game, there are restrictions on where certain block types can be moved (it becomes a kind of 3D chess) and I found it frustratingly difficult to figure out the logical rules governing their movement, even after I'd beaten levels containing those blocks. So I suggest that once a level containing a type of block has been beaten, it would be good to be able to refer to a rulebook (i.e one which is revealed as the player progresses). Because without an explicit rule in mind to use for planning logical solutions, moving certain blocks started to feel more like trial and error than solving a challenging puzzle. 

THanks very much to Bash Games and GOTD. This has been a great weekend for GGOTD, with two interesting and absorbing games.

<description><![CDATA[I know it's late but just wanted to +1 the AVG issue. Win7/64 and AVG updated. AVG detected a threat on open of the extracted setup.exe file: Trojan horse BackDoor.Hupigon5.CBOV. I really wanted the game so decided to have faith in GOTD, just temp disabled AVG to install and then reset it. Scan of installed folder/files comes out clean.

I really enjoy this game, not only because it's different game-wise, but it will give my brain a different workout as well. Severe dementia runs in my family and while no one knows for sure how to prevent it, they all say work a variety of puzzles. This game will definitely help. I really just wanted to check to make sure it ran, but it was so entertaining I ended up playing for quite a while. Definitely a keeper.

Thank you for your feedback and glad you trusted   the giveaway project.  It's just sad that the game  didn't get the download numbers it deserved because of the  threat AVG (no other  high profile  malware  program detected a problem) gave to it.  I was duty bound to inform the  community   even tohugh I could easily have blocked any comments that mentioned  the  false positive. consequently  the download ended up being half of what it should have been.  ah well, those that  don't know the giveawayoftheday very well will have lost out on a very  good game. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[What happened to "Tower defense" as you so proudly boasted
would be here today?

typical.

Disgusted




..........................Moderator Comment...........................


There was no boasting,  what I said was:



 
"This is an excellent mix of time management, strategy, building and tower defense, with over 35 levels to work through".  How is that proudly boasting, it was basically a simple statment of fact.....

The Tower Defence part of the game was building Barracks, Mage and Wizard towers to defend against  monsters and raiders.  Did you bother to read the  whole of the review and did you actually play the game?  I'm assuming you didn't because  you would have  realized what I meant by the  statement above.




I never said there was going to be a tower Defense game but a combination of three genres that included Tower Defense.  Maybe I should have been more specific by saying 'elements of Tower Defense'.  The game given away yesterday had  elements of strategy, building  time management AND tower defense (as i said it would).  

Why you have to be so ungrateful in the way you post your comment.  I wasn't going to moderate it, but felt you needed  an explanation and  a word about  your lack of communication skills.  you won't get vey far by being so aggressive in your comments.  - This is a free service and I do the moderation and write  reviews voluntarily.  I don't get paid.  You can find  loads of  free browser based  tower defense games on sites like mini clip, plus there are some free  downloadable TD games to be found in the  free games synopsis   over in the giveawayoftheday forums if you care to take the time to look. 

I really don't know why I bother wasting  my time replying to users like yourself., you don't deserve  it, but I'm to  easy going and end up trying to help despite the lack of respect you show.   ]]></description>

I think the above message has something to do with your provider.  The download servers were fine all day, so it could only have been from  your providers server.  Maybe you should approach them to find out if there was a problem.  Save having to go through the same  when we get more games next week.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Late to game. Gosh 2 goodies in a row!  Ok Win 7 x64 Ultimate. Full scteen. Can off music, no slider.  So far mouse is all needed to play.
Did about 5 levels.  Have to watch closely the pattern such that make a block have verticle or horizontal lines then have star block mount up double blocks.  Won't work otherwise.  Haven't quite figured the plan yet that turns the blocks that way but managed.  Thinking games must be a real thing these days. Guessing US can use all the brain power it can.  Thanks GOTD.
