Thanks for your record keeping when this thread started and for all the generosity as the thread plodded along thru the insomnia craziness. Sorry for any confusion I may have inadvertently created thru my pm's.

Wow, that is blatant. Is there some kind of 'do not gift, do not trade' blacklist in existence that everyone can refer to?

Us old-timers are on the ball today :D
There is no point given users can change names in an instant and make multiple accounts. I'm planning to get a guide for newcomers (and some old timers) to minimise the chances of this happening as often as it does.

>_<

ಠ_ಠ

I saw the event and thought 'wel if i happen to see some of the old point and click adventure come along ill buy them' and somehow i now have 13 more games than before te event.
They really now how to reel you in. Having said that, i missed kings quest and quest for glory, i have a spare legend of grimm.... So if someone is willing to trade (1 of the 2 ofcourse)...

That would be kindly appreciated! - said old timer, whos new user on the forum.

As a 'newbie': +1

Just did a quick tally, had 6 wishlisted, ended up buying 40 (from this sale, damn you gog), and 15 gifts.
Guess i'm good for a week or two... :-)

Wow cant believe it finished so soon:(

Bought:
Desperados
Papers Plz
Arcanum
Democracy 3
Heretic Kingdoms
Crusaders
Smugglers
S2
Blitz

Missed:
Warlords Battlecry 3
Harveys eyes
FTL

Cant wait for next year, I also want to get into gifting and being more involved in the community you guys seem cool.

Basically this. I still have that one as a retail copy but it would have been nice on GoG. But sleep was stronger this time. The good thing is, with GoG there will always be another sale ^_^

In the end I didn't buy nearly as many games as a lot of you, nor as many as I thought I did when compared to the time that I invested in the sale, but I like the idea of posting a "Final Haul", so here is mine:

For Me:
King's Quest IV+V+VI
Police Quest 1-4
Quest for Glory 1-5
Sam & Max: Beyond Time and Space
Sam & Max: The Devil's Playhouse
Space Quest 4+5+6
The Zork Anthology

For Gifting:
Evil Genius
Quest for Glory 1-5
Sam & Max: Save the World (freebie!)

Total Damage:
$25.16 CAD
12+ hours of sleep lost over 3 days

All-in-all, I had a lot of fun this time around! Knowing that a master list exists (once the first round is completed) definitely helped my sanity. I also learned that if you're going to stay up for a game, it's best to make it in Round 2, not 3. The Devil's Playhouse nearly killed me....

I'll distribute the gifts sometime in the future, to some I arbitrarily deem worthy. Sleep well, kiddos!

So you're telling us, that you've boght more games for gifting, than for yourself? Allright don't worry, stay calm Sinistar! Those two gentleman in white are just going to give you this nice white jacket. Oh that rifle you ask? Oh its filled with sedatives, in case an...elephant, yeah an elephant should randomly decide to rampage through the city.

Now for my very final haul:

FOR MY PERSONAL GAMING NEEDS:

-Arcanum (finally off my wishlist! Yay!)
-Little Big Adventure 2
-Quest for Glory 1-5
-Police Quest 1-4 (via trade)

GIFTED:

-Arcanum
-Time Commando
-Hammerwatch
-Theme Park
-Zork Anthology

TRADED:

-Papers, Please
-Luftrausers
-Inquisitor

STILL FOR TRADE:

-Hitman: Codename 47
-Star Control 1+2
-Seven Kingdoms: Ancient Adversaries
-Tiny and Big: Grandpa's Leftovers

Yep, not bad. Thanks GOG for this wonderful return of the Insomnia sale! Until we meet again in....

Fall Insomnia 2 - The Keane Within!!!

:-)

hahaha that last one is way cool :)

This sale was a blast! First and foremost because of this forum and this thread in particular.

It's been a long time since I've been active at all on any forum, but this sale and the great conversation has been enjoyable and really drew me in. Thanks to all who contributed to that enjoyment!

And thanks GOG for some great games at amazing prices ... and thanks to those two kind souls who shot me a gift.
