You're very lucky then. This sale started at 2pm BST on13 June and I received the email notification at 1.46am on 14 June - just short of 12 HOURS after it started. Fortunately, as I have my tablet on my desk at work and I check the website regularly, I had a suspicion the sale was going to start when no weekend promo had appeared by lunchtime. :-)
The Insomnia notification was a little better; the sale also started at 2pm local time and I received the email at 6.32pm the same day. Again, I was in at the beginning as I was checking the website intermittently during the day at work. (I hope my boss doen't lurk around here! :-p)
Like others I feel that the two games at a time is just a little bit TOO slow. I hope they change it up a bit tomorrow when the bundles change over again.

Likewise, I usually get the email long after I've already discovered the sale on my own. Not too bad on regular sales, but on these timed events it's gotta sting for folks who aren't as fanatical about following the site.RWarehall

Jade has not appeared a second time as yet. There are currently 174 games that have appeared and not appeared twice. At about 4 an hour is 100 per day, so it should show up again in the next 48 hours. Since this sale is continuing even with the pace of 2 games per half hour, with 226 flash sales revealed, games should repeat every 2.5 days or so.

I'm only waiting for Banished to appear but it seems it didnt show up, unlike many games that, afaik, seem to pop up every hour again & again >.> ( exaggerating a bit here but you know what i mean)

low rated
Day 1 - 6 games per flash rotation, several groups on front page
Day 2 - 2 games per flash rotation, front page reduced to 12 total + 2 main bundles
Anybody else see a pattern here? I'm betting they will change it every day just to raise anger and frustration at missing wishlist games, at least thats my reaction to this frikkin tactic which is pissing me off big time
Never seen flash rotations actually alter how they operate every 24 hours, thats unheard of from my experience of sales, tells me GOG are not playing by the rules so when they do the giveaways, freebies etc expect some major stupidity on their part, dont say I didnt warn you lot...

About Expeditions:conquisador what's a similar game? Trying to get an idea what game play is like and if you'd recommend it?

What rules? They said there would be 700 games discounted 50% and they are there. They said two daily bundles and so far we have had them. They said there would be 200 games on flash sales and they have been there. GOG has never said what structure the flash sales would follow.
You mean other kinds of sales? GOG special sales have never played by the rules at least since the Insomnia sales, I think.

And on the Unreal bundle:
(I've checked the Unreal forums but did not find much information in the line of my inquiry.)
I hope some might help me with more information. I like FPS but not multiplayer and not arena styles. I think I might enjoy Unreal 1 and 2 but I don't feel attracted to the Tournament ones (sacrilege! I know)
I've read that there are some mods for UT with single player missions so I'm getting inclined to buy them anyway.
Anyone has anything to add to tip the balance?
