  2. How do Guy’s?!

    TNX Slava for the message as I have had issues getting to your website in the past. When I didn’t get an email about the new give away and I was only able to see June 2nd’s giveaway I was thinking that I had a problem again :).

    I appreciate your website and your efforts to do a service to myself and others.

  6. Heh, even those who complaint about the whiners don’t want no more converters! Well, I don’t have any use for these converters too (I use freeware and GPL) but I don’t mind really. I think it gives us an opportunity to tell the DEVELOPERS (not GAOTD!) that there’s too much of a type of software – go build something else and maybe the market will buy.
    As for GAOTD, how do you people make money? I won’t mind if you put up extra adverts around here a bit… I mean, I’d click them just out of gratitude for the hundreds of dollars worth of free software I get – more than I ever bought in 5 years, in just a few months.
    In fact, if the offerings are more varied and of high quality, heck, I’d even pay a minimal membership fee if that’s what it takes to keep you guys afloat!

  7. Not a problem!
    Keep up the good work, Slava!
    I have about 3 programs that I downloaded for FREE from this Site and they are all very useful.
    I don’t care if I have to wait some time for a program that would be useful to me, as it is FREE. Nada payment, nil, nix!
    Best regards.

  11. there has been no free game give away for weeks..it is always late.
    I come everyday and check and there are no current games to get.
    where are they?..I have checked the alternate site..and still no current give away…again where are they so you can download while they are still free.

  12. Whatever the reason it was down, just stop complaining. People won’t be happy to see GAOTD shut down just because they are tired of whinners. Find alternatives or better yet, just buy the products you find interesting until another product is displayed for download. Just drop the complain, what a waste of typing just to say enough already.

    Game give aways are only on the weekends Saturday and Sunday. It’s been that way for a couple of months now.

  15. What about a free Hidden objects game? It ist possible to get one?

    Comment by Witch — June 6th, 2008 at 3:30 am
  16. to 61.

    Game Giveaways are for weekends only. So you dont have to check “game.giveawayoftheday.com” every day, just check on weekends, and you’ll surely get a free game.

  17. Since the site maintenance on June 3, I have to wonder if you have a new person responsible for uploading the new GAOTD program to the website. Before June 3 I could alost set my alarm clock to the second when the new offering was posted. Since then I wonder whether you have a new perosn or he or she’s alarm clock has broken.

  18. Hello,

    I wonder if the site is still in maintenace mode.
    The code I did put into my website doesn’t work today.

  19. Is today, June 7, another maintenance day? An announcement would have been appreciated. Also, on days when the site is down, please consider putting an announcement where the announcement of that day’s GOTD would be. I have the GOTD gadget on my Google page, but it is just blank when your site is down. I suspect the same is true of people who put your code on their own Web sties, like #68 above. Thanks.

  20. Thank you for keeping us posted about the maintenance Slava, and thank you for a great site. I have had the chance to download and try many programs for free. Some have been deleted after a short while but many I still have saving me loads of readies!

    And if you are having a break, so what, we are all entitled to a break now and again. I hope you are having a good time.

    And again I will repeat. By all means leave valid comments about programs – good and bad. That’s what the site is for and developers do read the comments – some have even started appearing on the comments to help and guide and thank.

    If you don’t like what’s on offer come back tomorrow or try and find an alternative site or just download the trial software you want from the developer and pay for it if you like it!

    Again thank you, great site keep it up!

  21. Well I think everything has been expressed above.
    Take care and enjoy your vacation when you get there. : )
    Sad that the site was down thou, was really looking forward to a nifty download for my Birthday hee hee.

    Keep up the good work, your always appreciated.

  22. You never can do good for everyone thats for sure if you read the comments.
    All I can say is thank you for the free programs GOTD.
    Maybe they are many programs the same but nobody is telling you to visit this site anyway.
    If you can make a program that never has seen before, go ahead.
    If you can do better, why dont you start a site on your own?

    Again…. be thankfull
