CarrionCrow: Good morning/afternoon/evening, everyone. =)
Just checked the list and I actually didn't miss list items by sleeping, so pretty happy about that.

And now, day seven!

Stilton: Hi one-eye - what kind of insanity do you have in store for today?
Hey there, bard. Funny thing about that. Never can tell quite what'll eventually show up. -laughs-
The longer the same limited number of titles keep being recycled the more I'm forming the opinion that GOG have dropped the ball on this sale...

Likewise. This isn't much different than the usual Summer/Winter sale. I hope they have an idea for reinvigorating it for Week Two.

EDIT: typo - I don't know why I always seem to write "that" for "than"

Seriously hoping for some change-ups in the near future. Alterations to the flash lineup, shorter timer, something. This needs a shot in the arm, big-time.

HypersomniacLive: You have every reason to be excited, Barefoot Essentials is an irreplaceable tool, I could never go back to using GOG without it. so I'm more than grateful to Barefoot_Monkey for constantly updating and improving it.

Cheers Barefoot_Monkey!! :-DD
Seconded.

If I could have a signature, this would be on it!
At least we have the forum!

Indeed. And in the very worst-case of scenarios, there's always a combo of more blindside gifts mixed with clearing out more of the wishlist. =)
This sale has become Anti-Insomnia. I'm fighting to stay awake for it.
What I'd like to see it more games in the Flash Deals (wouldn't we all) and have them on something like a 5x5 grid where each row progresses upwards, staying say 20 or 30 minutes on each row before shunting towards the top, where all five games would disappear (to be recycled again at some point to give everyone a chance) and a new row appear at the bottom. That would mean about 100-150 mins for each row from bottom to top; plenty of time to research titles, and loads of games on offer at once. Sales need more enthusiasm to succeed well, and this current one's almost asleep.

This! Normally I check gog to keep me awake during boring days at work, but now the sale is making me even more sleepy :D

Even if the amount of games available didn't change, what you just mentioned about speeding up the rotation would work wonders. The amount of time available takes the process from "ample time to research" straight into either "WHY THE HELL WON'T THIS MOVE FASTER!!!!!!!!" or "oh, screw this, I'm going to sign off and do something else since this thing is crawling".

Ta for the gift, but don't make me regret publicising my wishlist! ;)

Check the reply PM for a selection of possible gifts for yourself, since you keep your own wishlist a secret.

Don't worry, I'll have to have a much larger supply of coin in my pocket before I can start randomly wiping out people's wishlists for them. (Will keep it in mind as a concept, though. ;) )
Also, but certainly not least of all, thank you as always for the generous offer. =)

You mean that it's Jack Keane 2 all day? Then, that's exactly the spirit of Insomnia! :P

I'd be more likely to stay awake for a day of Jack. The comments alone would make that worthwhile. :)
