KasperHviid: Woo! I still not getting any! :-D

I haven't gotten anything either. Looking at the tracking thread, there would've been a few interesting titles on sale (such as Hard West), but I don't feel like constantly keeping an eye on the frontpage for what could be hours.

timppu: I am also giving this sale a big fat pass. Partly because I have most of the games already, but I don't want to make purchasing decisions in a hurry, especially if I am not 100% sure that I don't already have some edition of the game being sold (as many GOG games don't get flagged as "owned", if you own another edition of the same game).

Also I am not constantly checking the GOG main page, so I miss most deals by default.

I think I wait for regular sales that last for days. Never say never though, if I catch e.g. Pillars of Eternity or the last X space game for a good price, I might jump in.
I don't know how helpful this will be as it's admittedly a bit of overkill, but I just made a huge spreadsheet for tracking all of my games and where I own them because I got annoyed at either missing a sale because I thought I had something, or accidentally buying it a second time. (Also it's cool to be able to track numbers/percentages of where I have games)

Another virgin here.
Somehow I don't like it much this time... To me it's the most meh-est ever. At least by now. Sure it's a quick one, no keaning but then again no typical gog-cult-feeling anyhow. The veterans among us might know what I mean.
And the freebies are already out...
Maybe I'll grab Sunless Sea if it comes again and I discover it earlier than "2 copies left"...
And that's it, other games on my wishlist haven't appeared in the cycle so far.

Ah, good old Jack Keane. That game was good for a few hours sleep back in the beginning of the "Insomnia" Sale era. Might as well have been known as the "Jack Keane meal break", as people knew they had AT LEAST an hour to kill or more!

*Salutes to another survivor of the Keane*
Yeah good ol' times! This guy of Nordic Games (ThomNG I guess) was great when he posted something like "Do a break and sleep a couple hours while Jack breaks the Sale for you" or something like that. That was awesome ^^ Sweet memories...

I've bought things during previous Insomnia promos, but not yet during this one. In previous promos I spent more time monitoring the promo and participating in threads, but at the moment I've got matters of a more productive nature ongoing so only able to keep an eye on the promo and forums occasionally rather than become an Insomniac. I've got the GOG homepage open on a secondary monitor to keep an eye on things but the low count per-game ensures that they don't stay up for very long at all so X-Wing Alliance continues to elude me. By my estimate there has to be at least 2-3 days or more of the sale left to go though and games seem to repeat a lot so it's a matter of being in the right place at the right time in order to break my Spring Insomnia 2016 virginity this time around. ;oP

I wanted to buy HER STORY, and I clicked in time and all ... but then I couldn't find my vallet wherein lies my credit card ...

My purity is not yet compromised!

No Insomnia before the marriage, that's my vision of purity...

Just made yet another Insomnia Purity Ring. Now there's two! At the same cheap price!
