You numpty! Me thinks you're a lousy scammer!
I shall accuse you by presenting no proof and calling you names and them I shall taunt you.
I fart in your general direction! You mother was a hamster and your father smelled of elderberries!

Tamamba: Hi and thanks. :)
I had to look up what this insomnia sale was you were talking about. Sounds like a fun time. Can't wait for that for sure. I'm hoping for a couple to come up on sale soon for this winter sale I heard about. Not sure I get the Keaneing reference yet but I will. lol

RWarehall: In the Insomnia sale, GoG had a fixed number of copies of games to sell before they switched to the next one. Some games would sell out in a couple minutes. Jack Keane came up in the middle of the night a few days in and lasted hours. With many sleep-deprived people waiting for the next game, some people even started writing false positive reviews to encourage others to buy it. That is the legend of Jack Keane. Since then, for any Insomnia type sale, if a game is selling slowly, it's now referring to as a Keaning.
lol that's funny. Thanks for the explanation.

But mostly when Jack Keane comes on sale since both games gathered a cult following here on GOG.

And by the way, the opposite of Keaning would be Noxxing.

During the last Insomnia one user (I think it was Fairfox) hyped up Nox so much that as soon as it appeared it was already gone again. I have never before or since seen a game being sold so fast.

That's because X-Wing sold so fast that you didn't even notice that it was on sale ;)

Oh, I'm pretty sure I saw X-Wing.^^ But yes that one also went fast. Vangers, too, for some reason.

lol nice. I do believe I had that game too a long time ago. Sounds like good times around here.
