Talk:Getting the game data

Hi,

You might be interrested to become an GOG.com affilicate, that means adding a ?dd=<hashed_value> to all the urls pointing to GOG.com and received some money for each game sold.

I noticed ScummVM and dxx-rebirth already do the same.

I would reuse this id for the url constructed by the application game-data-packager that instructs people where to get the games.

This is now still text only, but the url are at least clickable with Konsole, Gnome Terminal.

Yet an other engine, same proposal: https://github.com/CorsixTH/CorsixTH/issues/735

Hi, thanks for your suggestion. However, I'm not sure if it's worth the effort: Just like with accepting donations, the immediate question becomes how to split the money and between whom. Next, someone would have to manage all that. Even the web hosting (the only non-personal cost associated with the project) is currently handled by my personal VPS, which also has other uses besides AL.
