Seems GOG's redeem function is broken

I've got Duke Nukem 3D, and tried a spare code I have, (after being notified of it). It says I can redeem my code and add the game to my collection

Seems it no longer checks to see if you own it. See attached image I created from 2 snapshots, one from the redeem page, and the other my game page

Seems like today forum upgrade had one or two "unwanted side effects"... personally I have some games that have disappeared from my collection (the no longer sold ones).

Similar things happened during the previous update, hopefully it will be corrected soon.
I found an empty space in the middle of my shelf.
I haven't found any games missing, so it's either just a space inserted, or I've forgotten whatever should be in that space.

Same here. I don't see XIII or Chessmaster in my collection anymore, even with the search function.

Same here my copy of XII is missing
I can't see XIII on my shelf either.
Of course, that might have something to do with the fact that I never bought XIII.....

;-}
XIII is missing from my shelf as well :(

All removed games are missing... except Colin McRae and/or Obscure who reappear/re-disappear randomly for some reason. (I have the game counter enabled so it's easy to notice how many games are missing)

EDIT : Apparently the "edit post" is also acting funky with line breaks :-)

Same :/
Umm not to sound alarmist but I bought and paid for XIII a few days before it was pulled. What happens when I want to download and play it?

Don't worry too much, it happened before during previous forum updates, it's most likely a bug that will be corrected soon.

EDIT : Yes the "edit post" line-breaks are definitely broken...

Well, this is new...and refreshing the page didn't fix anything.

Thanks. I really need to learn to keep calm about this sort of thing. Then again, if XIII not being on my shelf is the most tramatic thing going on in my life, I guess I've got a pretty sweet existence.

Its a site error, GoG will fix it and you will be able to download it then, All games that people own that were later removed such as XIII are downloadable still (when the site is working properly), they just can no longer be purchased
