Can't wait to see you on the multiplayer site!!!! You would have purchased the game yourself and made the right choice at that. There are some really good players there and trust me they will show you how it is really played and lose, but after that you become better, stronger, and wiser and start some winning. Those great players are also great teachers, which is how you get better. Until then.... rts

Some time ago I purchased an additional copy of SOWGB in CD mode which unfortunately got lost in the post.

I therefore have an extra activation code that I will never need to use. Am I able to relinquish this activation code and donate it to Pielord92 as an early Christmas present.

He seems a deserving case as far as I can see.

Geoff,
Both codes are showing as owned by you. If you choose to send the code you are not currently using to Pielord92, that is your decision on what you do with your own property. If you do so, please send an email to: activate@norbsoftware.com letting us know the code you are sending and an email address for the recipient. Our interest is that we would like to have the new owner of the code correctly listed in our database in case of activation issues. Thanks.

Hi Pielord92

It seems we are in business.

If you will send me an e-mail to jeffers (at) earthstation (dot) me (Put this in proper form !) I will sort this out with Norb Software Development Support and advise you of the activation code that will unlock your game. They will confirm it to you by e-mail as well, I guess.

I'm afraid that I do not have unused activations for the Pipe Creek and Antietam extensions but I think you will find the basic game plus the free mods available at this time quite enough to wreck your homework for several months. Be warned SOWGB is more addictive than crack.

Best wishes

Hi,

I wasn't sure if you knew about PM's, being rather new.

Better if you PM me letting me know your e-mail address. Norb Software Development will need this for the record when they transfer my activation code to you. Should your system ever crash, the activation can be re-set by Support once the e-mail address has been verified.

Normally this happens automatically in the sale process once dollars have changed hands but, in this instance, I will have to start the process as I must authorise transfer to you.

Will keep my eyes open for PM's

Nothing but cool...I'm 47 yrs of age..and I've NEVER! Seen such a thing. Pie...he just gifted you this amazing game. Not even knowing if you are , WHO you are. Don't let your "teen" ignorance stand in the way of nothing short of a great game. If you want the code, take it. If not, I'm positive he'll find another MUCH more appreciative soul. BTW...I'm 47 and poor, anyone wanna "gift" ME Antietam? :laugh:

Hi Pielord92,

I'm not sure if private messages are functioning at the moment.I don't use them very often. I've sent you a couple with the "copy to me" toggled on and the copy doesn't seem to have materialised. Let me repeat here what I said.

The email address that you gave me on PM has bounced "no yahoo account for this name" Without that being viable you won't get the registration transferred. Suggest you send me an actual e-mail to jeffers (at) earthstation (dot) me. Then there should be no problem.

Additionally, if you can give me a postal address via PM soonest, I can probably also get mailed to you, direct from Norb Software Development, the game CD and the game manual that belong with the registration.

Regarding giving your address, forget your fixation on neighbourhood child molesters offering sweeties .... I live in the middle of Africa. The only one knocking on your door should be the mailman .... but I can't vouch for him. If you are genuinely worried about giving your address to a stranger, then give the address of an adult. Teacher plus school address, perhaps ? Better safe than sorry,

Best regards,

Geoff Laver
