Deals so good, you won't want to fall asleep.
You remember back when you used to walk into a store, browse the shelves, pick out a game, and then buy it--all in the actual real world? We don't know about you, but most of us at GOG.com have had our limbs atrophy to small vestigial nubbins since all of our shopping happens online these days. Of course, one thing that sometimes happens in real world stores with real world goods--particularly when they have a good sale--is that they run out of stock. Usually that means that the deal was so good that they couldn't keep up with demand.

Well, in the digital realm, this is usually pretty rare. How do you run out of stock on digital games, short of entropy devouring the universe? Well, we have gotten 101 games that will be on sale on the front page of GOG.com, but the discounts are so high at the moment that we can't just sell an unlimited number of copies of these games: we are only able to sell a few at these discounts--up to 80% off--and once they're gone, they're gone.

So what games will be on sale in our Insomnia promo? Bestselling classics and new games alike. There will also occasionally be some free games in super limited numbers (like, 20 or 30 copies)--if you're fast enough on the trigger finger to pick 'em up, that is. The deal will run from now until we're out of "stock" of games for the sale, and games may show up more than once. So it's time to bathe in a tub of coffee*, dip some espresso**, snort an energy drink***, or do whatever else it takes to stay up so you don't miss out on the best deals on fantastic games on GOG.com since summer.
*This is probably not a good idea
**This is definitely not a good idea
***This is totally safe, though****
****NO IT'S NOT WHAT ARE YOU DOING YOU CRAZY PERSON

undeadcow: Am I a sucker for jumping on Eador now that there's only 10 left?
You'd be my hero. 8-)

stylez82: But it is selling. Just slowly. You're essentially asking them to force lost sales of the product, despite the fact they have 99.999999% probability of selling every 'copy' of said product.

To put it in perspective, if someone walks up to you and says "I will give you 500 of this product. I guarantee it will sell, but I cannot guarantee how fast or how slow you will be able to sell it. You will make $10 for each one you sell.", then offers you two choices:
- You only have 30 minutes to do so, after that, you eat the cost of any remaining product.
- You can take as long as you want to sell all 500, but be warned, it could take you 12 hours to do so.

Would you really choose the half hour route?

Bovrillor: I never suggested they 'eat the cost' of the remaining product. When I said 'rotate it out', I meant take Eador off-sale for a few hours and put the remaining quantity back up in 12 hours so people on the other side of the world can 'enjoy' the offer.
But that's the beauty of the internet. Sleepless nerds all across the globe, from GMT-12 to GMT+12 and all points inbetween, are looking at Eador's ugly face right now.
Not complaining - just an observation... it takes almost 2 hours for Eador to get to about 30, and then within 10-15 min down from 30 to single digits? What gives? Either some generous souls are still out there, the staffers are doing something behind the scenes, or we have this group of buyers that have been hiding for the last 2 hours....

Low enough that them buying will make a difference
Actually bought one. God have mercy on my soul. :X

Goodbye, Eador. We hardly knew ye!
