Isn't there an automatic countdown built into the counters? In case of a Keaning incident, to make sure that it never happens again.

Which makes no sense in terms of marketing. But then, this is GOG...

You've got better odds than I do, that helps. =)

Driftmoon has been on sale so many times, figure most people have it by now that even consider it. I'm a little surprised Bad Mojo isn't selling quicker. Very nice discount for a very unique game.

As far as I remember the insomnia promos have always started on a week day, part of the reason why some folks aren't really impressed with this format.

Could be. And I probably said it was an odd choice then, too. :D


I don't believe so. Other sales had that, but Insomnia items stay up until they sell out. The sale itself has a time frame, so basically, the faster the games sell, the more titles that are offered.

I already own Driftmoon and I'm not really interested in Bad Mojo, so I'll just (im)patiently wait for the next ones. :P

Wondering how long round 1 for both sections will take to complete.

If I can nail everything the first time through, the rest is cake.

Let the fun begin! :D

eh. i don't like it because:

there's a limited number of "digital items" which is crazy all by itself.

there sometimes "isn't enough time" to formulate an opinion on a game [to gog's advantage]

it encourages "bad behaviour" in the sense that people stay up way past when they should to see if they can snap up a game. [not a good sales tactic, i feel.]

with the last promo, they had freebies. these were quite limited in stock and most people who wanted them got gog-bear'd because bots were [repotedly] nnija'ing the games.

some games stall the promo completely [cf: jack keane]

it's just not a good format at all, to my mind.

^This, in reverse. =P

This one has "random free buys", which have worked well in other sales. Basically, when you go to buy a game, there's a chance you'll get it for free instead.

So by halfway to 600, I'm assuming you don't mean 300...

Congrats :-)
