I'm still waiting for them to reply to my email but at least I've got the game now. You used to have to download and install and THEN activate in a separate step.

It makes me feel really dumb when I read - and try and understand - what you are both doing. I understand Dragonlair's posts easier because I'm used to spreadsheets, but about 40 years ago (maybe not quite that long surely) I used to program, using Basic, on a Colour Genie (an advance on a Commodore or ZX80), now I realise how old I'm getting when I'm struggling to follow you ZF. But, thank you both for your ideas, it still gets the brain cells moving, and I love the list of all the MyPlayCity games, even though, as you say, it is already 'out of date'.

I can copy them to Docs and keep formatting (I think) but the main advantage of doing it this way is I can keep watch on all 4 sites that I watch on one page and not separate sites. it's also far easier to keep them sorted. I can re-sort if I'm looking for something specific or use "find". For me, spreadsheets are easier. I'm not afraid of html code. I've got over 30 years computing experience and I'm not afraid to admit that my favorite computer language is good old-fashioned FORTRAN! ZF on "400 Adware Games" http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/10476#post-95916 Mon, 10 Oct 2011 10:22:24 +0000 ZF 95916@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ MPC has certainly been on an impressive roll! FYI, anyone who wants to test such games safely and keep all files and system changes contained should use <a href="http://www.sandboxie.com">Sandboxie</a>. It's a brilliant and trustworthy free utility that is very light-impact all on it's own and which allows you to instantly delete an install without it ever having impacted your system, it can even let you deny sandboxed programs access to the internet. To use it you just right-click a file and "run sandboxed" (and quite frankly a web browser should almost never be run outside of the protection of Sandboxie). Also, for power users: to ease the installation and archiving of most games I'd suggest opening the setup files with <a href="http://www.holylinux.net/code/innoextractor">this</a>. Dragonlair, this is just a random idea but depending on your software you could save bits of your spreadsheet as a webpage/html and then upload it. It should retain the formatting and offer the organized list you were wanting to share. I wouldn't advise uploading a spreadsheet directly as it could contain metadata you wouldn't want shared (search spreadsheet metadata for info), and as far as that goes you could load the html in a text editor to check it's contents. Alternately, you could stitch together some screenshots of the sheet to create a graphical map of sorts. Two quite decent sites that will accept .htm uploads: <a href="http://myfreefilehosting.com">link</a> and <a href="http://www.datafilehost.com">link</a> I don't track those game sites like you do but I do sift through them in my own way. If you'll pardon the digression, I like to create simple, custom made web pages as a starting point for my browser on my own pc (writing basic html is easy), this is what my free games page looks like: <a href="http://img4.fotos-hochladen.net/uploads/dp5gcrh4s7.gif"><img src="http://img4.fotos-hochladen.net/uploads/fdyw2mngbv.jpg"></a> (click) At the upper left I have links to the game sites I check most often, each designed to open in a new tab, while further down the page (unseen) are links for other freebies and deals and whatever. At the upper right I have search forms I've extracted from various sites for the sake of quickly searching out reviews, with the results opening in a new tab. The first three should be pretty obvious but the fourth one (G) is customized to insert the word "review" automatically when you search. The fifth one searches "G" images, it automatically includes the word "screenshot", sets the minimum size to 640x480 and also enables "safe search" (the strongest content filter). All of this makes it easier to decide if a game is of interest. The middle of the page is a "textarea" that's like a form on a web page. I can type in it temporarily but if I do a hard refresh or close the browser the text will be lost. However, it's real purpose is to provide a permanent scratch pad that I can keep my download to-do list on. To edit it for real I view source in my browser to open it in a text editor. The textarea portion of the source code is a "blank" section in plain text (just as you see it), requiring no html tags or anything, thus very easy to edit and update while at the same time being on permanent display within the page. The page is small and plain because that's how I like it, but it could be as fancy as you like and all of the elements can easily be <a href="http://img4.fotos-hochladen.net/uploads/50j72dpkut.gif">moved</a>, resized and endlessly customized. It's all plain html as well, no javascript or anything. If anyone would like to have it or something like it that can be customized then I could upload it and/or create a new topic for the sake of working something out. Dragonlair on "400 Adware Games" http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/10476#post-95874 Sat, 08 Oct 2011 17:14:54 +0000 Dragonlair 95874@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ After all the work I did to make this list from my full free game list from the 4 sites, it's badly out of date again! MyPlayCity is having a "Hot October" to follow its "Hot September". Again, a new free game daily. This is almost as good as what we used to have here - better in one sense, worse in another. Better in the sense that we are not limited to getting the game on the one day. Once they're there, they're there. I don't know that they have ever removed a game. They have updated their downloads and usually improved it. They did remove the two (that I know about) 4Shared downloads and are now true MPC downloads. The disadvantage is you do have to install their toolbar (but you don't even have to have it active). It can be totally disabled as far as it's concerned. It wants to change your search engine and maybe your home page but doesn't insist and is easily avoided. The biggest drawback is opening your browser when you end the game. That gives us some good games with little hassle and no time limits. Not bad for free and 417 (with today's game - if I'm accurate). BTW - today's game is a HOG - Broken Hearts: A Soldier's Duty. Dragonlair on "400 Adware Games" http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/topic/10476#post-95775 Tue, 04 Oct 2011 23:59:34 +0000 Dragonlair 95775@http://www.giveawayoftheday.com/forums/ OK, even though MPC still seems to be adding a game a day past the "Hot September", I was requested if I could give a list of the games. This may not be the best format - I took it from a portion of my "Free Games" spreadsheet listing free games from MyPlayCity, JenKat, GameTop and FreeGamePick. I hope I didn't lose anything trying to correct for format from a spreadsheet to text. As of today, MyPlayCity has 413 games, GameTop has 156, FreeGamePick has 127 and JenKat has 87. That is, according to my figuring. The games are followed by the type -- my interpretation of the type and it should be fairly understandable to most game players and there is a comment field for such as problems with the game or multiple game names for the same game. That being said - here we go.

I did just check and you're right, the 4Shared garbage is gone. It still insists on the Ask Toolbar but does not hijack the home page and you can disable the toolbar. There was one other game that had the 4Shared stuff - Snowy: Space Trip. Someone ought to try that again to see if it has been changed as well.

I just downloaded another game & decided to give it a 2nd chance since I'd almost purchased Magnetic Adventure twice when it was on sale.

Thank you for the update. I'm hoping that this isn't a sign of MyPlaycity returning to their old form. A couple of years ago you could only install most of their free gaes if you allowed the toolbar and homepage hijack. Thankfully I've already got A Magnetic Journey via Big fish. (I'd been trying to use up several vouchers that I'd accumulated when I was in the club. They had started to release too many HOG's so I'd not spent the vouchers for several months. I've only just finally spent them after almost three years following my quitting from the club).

The game sounds neat, "A Magnetic Adventure" but the install is nasty. It's distributed by MyPlayCity but says it's a 4Shared game and as such INSISTS on the installation of the AllGamesToolbar (219 registry entries) and hijacks the home page of IE. It doesn't seem to touch Firefox but that may have been because I had FF open when I installed it for test. I hope this is an exception because I have not seen MPC ever hijack the home page since I've been getting games from there. It tells me that if I see a game that says 4Shared - stay away!!!!! Revo Uninstaller to the rescue. It's all gone.

I'll check these out.
