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

KoolZoid: Kinda inclined to agree - I had no interest in Omerta, but the sheer ridiculous speed with which it disappeared (and I have a 120Mb connection at this time of day, if Virgin Media are to be believed) fills me with trepidation for what will happen when something I *do* want comes up.
So did nobody see the glitches? I had Dont Starve pop up again a few times after I clicked omerta too late, and then a minute or two later omerta popped up again with 8 copies left.

ne_zavarj: I don't understand it either .

Trid: Guess there was not many copies cuz I was away only for few minutes. :)
100 copies apparently, but to quote OP: "games may show up more than once"; I would guess Sacred would be a good candidate for exactly that..

He has a familiar in GOG offices?
We'll need a "morning after" thread once this is over, where everyone can post their spending excess.

It was very very fast.

revanbh: How about letting us save credit card info and just click through? Bad idea, but in this case, good. Sacred went too fast. Bummer for anyone who doesn't know their numbers.
Paypal works quite well for that. Just need to remember your password and have paypal setup to your card or bank account.
Come on people! Gift it to your friends/family! Let's get this thing moving!
