DampSquib: Can only hope that's a oversight on their part, but it does happen.
You could be so bold and ask them via chat...many reasons abound.

mrkgnao: Yes, as DampSquib has said, it does happen and it is rather awkward.

If you can muster the courage to ask them, as Dampqsuib has suggested, you probably should. I'm pretty sure I would have been unable to.

ZenWan: Thank you both. Yes, I should... I'll see if I can pluck up the courage but probably not. ;-)

The person was nominated here, and I'm sure that Moon would have given the thread details, so it is surprising.

Think I'll just write it off to experience...
Even if in minority, it does happen. But as you said it - it's an experience. Zen One, if you will.

We could always ascribe the events to chance, or communication fluke, but either way we can't say everybody is equally sensitive.

If you want to enrich your life with vastly different perspective, gift Cecil and see what happiness is all about. And it takes nothing more than a sincere.. well. I'll let you figure this one out for yourself ;)
The same applies to many truly thankful individuals around here, and I don't mean just when it comes to giving away something of proportionate monetary value. Exchange of opinions, ideas, advice and other people's selfless work are something that is surprisingly shared in abundance around a (The) gaming forum, which should have already given us enough reason to never cease saying THANKS!!!

drealmer7: I'd like to nominate truhlik for Legend of Grimrock 2
I give my thanks to you, drealmer7, for the kind nomination,
as well to MarkoH01 for donating the this excellent dungeon crawler.
And of course to Moonshineshadow for managing the whole giveaway.

Since I re-played LoG 1 recently this nomination perfectly fit in time :)

ZenWan: Stopped by to nominate someone for 2 games I'd gifted a while ago (1 code), only to find they were gone. Nothing wrong with that, they were gifted to be passed on to someone who would enjoy them.

Checked my orders to see who had redeemed them, and was puzzled to see that the giftee did not post here, or send a chat message, at least acknowledging the gift. That seems strange...
I have had this happen a few times and find it best to just send them a chat message saying "Hi, I hope you are enjoying the game you won in the Community Giveaway".
You are guaranteed to get a thank you in reply.

Right, probably should've done that more. >_<
Thanking people on here that is.

Seems only fair to thank people, for most of us it doesn't happen that often to have become a chore.

Yeah, I kinda just forgot to do so. :l

mrkgnao: Do you mean to say that you wishlisted JULIA on this page (https://www.gog.com/game/julia_among_the_stars_coming_soon) but it does not appear on your GOG wishlist?

That is indeed the case for everybody. GOG, in its finite wisdom, sometimes decides not to display some wishlisted upcoming games on screen. JULIA is one example, Shadow Warrior 2 is another. You can confirm that it is indeed on your wishlist by unwishlisting it and seeing the number of games on your wishlist going down by one. It is one of the very small number of GOG bugs. Nothing much we can do about it.
J.U.L.I.A. - Among the Stars was released and there is a proper game card for it. For some reasons GOG didn't make a news post or put the game to the "New" section though.

It must be released few mins before because when we were discussing it had 'coming soon' tag.

No, it was there the whole time. It's just hard to find. The coming-soon-gamecard is still there as well:

It's "Coming soon" around here too and the price tag is missing or "TBA", I wishlisted it too and it didn't register at all, when I re-visited the store page it was not wishlisted, tried again and got the same result it's probably a bug.
Btw the game seems very cool and I'm happy to finally see it on GOG DRM-Free.

Alright, looks like someone on gog didn't do his job. Thanks I would have never knew it if you haven't cleared it. Thank you.

The three games that were released during the Insomnia sale have two different gamecards each. One with the "Coming soon" tag and without the price and one where you can really buy it:

I see, thank you! But for me, the bug still stands - on that link "https://www.gog.com/game/julia_among_the_stars" I see the price and I see I've wishlisted the game, but when I go to my wishlist I can't find this title at all. Also when I was on the store frontpage and tried the search function, to find "among" I get only the entry with tag "soon" and pricetag "TBA", the real entry where one can buy the game is not indexed yet which is odd :(

I guess the game isn't officially released yet, but they needed a working game card for the Insomnia sale. So they created one, but kept it "secret" (the only way to find it is to enter the url manually) and didn't index it.
