English is not my first language but I'm pretty sure it's "done well"
and not "done good"

It doesn't say "done." It says "gone good." As in "a drug deal gone bad."

"gone good" is the opposite of "gone bad" -- "gone bad" is spoilt or
failed.  "gone horribly wrong" would be "what is Tran's sex life
like?" -- "gone horribly right" would be art farts.

Technically, you are correct. However, Tran's
original post was not intended to be 'proper'
English. It was idiomatic English. 'Slang.'
Sometimes, 'slang' can be difficult for a non-
native to understand.

I just noticed a mysterious "failed delivery" email in my spam box that
might have been from ceejay. And of course, I remember ceejay, so I
googled this newsgroup and what do I see but the following:

It certainly was a pleasant surprise though.  You're welcome to post 
more Joaquim.   ;-D
