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

Ok, so what do I do if a game doesn't show up in my library, but the transaction appears to be pending in my bank account?

I've bought Neverwinter Nights 2, I Have No Mouth And I Must Scream, Baldur's Gate, Primordia and Planescape Torment. Those are 5 game that have appeared in my library. I also tried to buy Baldur's Gate 2 but I got several errors during checkout and no confirmation, not even by e-mail. But still, a sixth transaction of 1,99$ appears in my account.

So the money's gone, I didn't get the game and I don't know what to do.

Any ideas?

MichiGen: This is such a wonderful idea, I bet that STEAM will "steal" this idea in some of their future promos.

Khalaq: Probably. Steam has already stolen so many ideas from GOG that I'm surprised they still need to hire anyone for marketing.
I think their servers would crash even harder than GOG's from how many people would be hammering them.

Edit: Also, common Don't Starve for a repeat! I was curious about the game before and $5 would be right enough to take a chance on it.

The thing to do is to contact support. In cases like yours, the GOG staff always says that if you have proof of purchase, they'll fix it.

There is a post from support saying to email them with your details and transaction ID. Might take a while for them to fix it.

I think I'll actually wait and see about picking up Cognition, since there was no Deadly Premonition.

You're the best :D I missed so many freebies

If you're gonna pull a stunt like this then better make sure the servers are up to the task. Clicking on something one second after it comes up and getting the stupid ''servers overwhelmed'' disclaimer that mysteriously persists as long as the deal does is a good way to not be taken seriously.

They should be able to go off of the payment reference number. Don't worry, they may take a little while, but the support team here is great.
