ddickinson: I think I am going to take a break from the thread for a while as my head is killing me at the moment and I find it hard keeping up when the thread moves as fast as it does during a sale. I will stick around on chat, and will try to visit the thread later. Sorry for anyone I did not reply to, but I will do my best to do so later.

I hope you all enjoy the sale as best you can!

*big hugs and silly waves*
Hope things get better quick, get some rest.

CarrionCrow: Doing better now. =) Was very tired of waiting, now I can at least see what the sale has to offer.

That sounds like a massive pain in the ass to deal with. Good job getting through it without blowing your top or running off crying.

It wasn't me. I only have -counts GOG tabs- a few open right now!
Haha yeah, I get that. I can't stand waiting either. :P

The day a class makes me cry is the day I switch careers. I think you kind of lose all the respect they have for you at that point. :P I haven't actually been really angry yet either, but today I was definitely annoyed once or twice.

Hmmmm ... I have a few tabs open as well, but no GOGbears as of yet. So GOG must have something against you. :)

I thought the same thing about the last xmas sale at steam, lacklustre and with smaller discounts. They'd taken away the thrill of the next daily deal and the flash sales. It was, in one word, boring.

Worst thing about it though, is that it seemed to be contagious.

Have a nice and restful afternoon DD.

omega64: Yup, Pinata's create a lot of extra work for support though.
I prefer the spend XXX and get games.

zeogold: The way I look at it, it's the most convenient promo for me the buyer since I can buy all of them as gifts. Then I just trade away what I don't want and keep what I do want, since chances are, somebody else did the same thing and got something that I want that they didn't and I have something that they want that I don't want and thus can trade this thing I don't want for what they have.

I need more sleep.
You really need more sleep.

If you cry you're screwed with that class.

Hmph. I'll confess, you guys got me all riled up and excited for this whole insomnia thing, but...I think I might just pass on the entire sale, at this rate.
Edit: Y'know, now that I think back, I remember the Double Insomnia promo. I participated in that. Perhaps my memory is serving me incorrectly here, but weren't the discounts generally cheaper in that one?

Rather surprised that Steam isn't having a flash sale to counter this one.

zeogold: Is it just me, or do the discounts seem a little low so far?
Also, 10 games just for one free one? And with the number decreasing for each free game? Wouldn't it make more sense to go for the previous system of if you spend X amount of dollars, you get such-and-such game? Considering that all of the games so far have been at least $5 and up....that means you'd be spending at least $50 before you get anything at all as a bonus.
I mean, to be fair, they're not obligated to be giving out any bonuses at all, but still. I can't really see somebody spending some $100+ on this one sale.
Personally, I think I liked the piñata promo/mystery gift promo idea better.
I never, ever thought I'd say this... like, really. I was as sure as I am that I'm a male... but...
*deep breath*

I agree with zeogold.

Some were some weren't.
GOG tends to mix in bad deals like Serpents. 40% off.

Yeah, I'm thinking as much. At that point, they know they can steamroll you.

-laughs- Maybe they're sick of me going on about the sale. (Or everything's slowly starting to break in general.)

AgentBirdnest: I agree with zeogold.
...what the-
O_O
WHAT'S THE MATTER WITH YOU, MAN?!
QUICKLY! GET THIS AGENT A DOCTOR OR AT LEAST SOME PEANUT BUTTER!
Easy. Take it easy. Breathe. It's just a stage you're going through. It'll pass soon, honest. We'll do everything we can to make sure you don't fall under this dire condition again.

Maybe I'm just cheap, but at this rate, I'd rather just wait for some of this stuff to show up on Humble. It's not like I'm gunning for the GOG-only titles anyways.
