Shendue: Yet this means that the game didn't show up anymore, while the others appeared several times.
Maybe that one was an odd, non-repeated entry?

zavlin: this sale isnt following an even schedule like the other ones.
I know, but it's the one title I didn't see coming back yet, while basically all the other ones have been repeating a few times.

Pidgeot: Yes it did - but I caught the data format and am working on parsing it properly. Restarted the script; there might be a small hiccup once I fix it. ;)

jimbob0i0: nice work :)
Should be working now. Bundles will appear as

US_USD: 2016-03-22 00:31:00: BUNDLE: Broken Sword Series (Broken Sword 1-5) USD 1.19/1.19/1.19/1.99/
4.99 (USD 5.99/5.99/5.99/9.99/24.99) [80%] (40 copies)

(Don't mind the timestamp; that's from testing this with cached data)

EDIT: Pulled in the description for the bundles; that gives a bit more detail.

mrkgnao: Pidgeot's tracker began recording several hours after the sale launched, so it missed the first 50+ deals.

It's not the only one. I don't think GOG works in strict rounds this time. I expect it either is somewhat unlucky, RNG-wise, or it is set to appear with lower frequency than other games. I'm pretty sure it will reappear (again and again and again). Yawn...

And Xulima appeared twice, in a row.

The order is completely random.

Pidgeot:

*EDIT Thanks for running this thing again by the way! All the extra work people put in here is MUCH appreciated! Thank you Pidgeot.

mrkgnao: Two ways:
- They go away after two hours
- If you're impatient and using Paypal, complete the GOG checkout, but then close the Paypal window without paying

UhuruNUru: Well actually that's not how it normally works, there is normally a button to remove an order, but having just tried it, it's not there now.

Strange, I'm always ordering games, then removing them from the list, using that remove link.
Further investigation makes me more suspicious, though a simple mistake is the most likely reason.

I'm not wrong, if you click on a game not in the sale. Only that game appears in the checkout, with the remove link and an add to wishlist link.

The sale appears to have a separate checkout, where the remove/wishlist feature is absent.
Yes, it does. This is how they force you to use your existing store credit before allowing standard payments. I'm having to search for any game I want to buy it from the game page so that I can opt out of using credit but 8 out of 10 times the game has been gone before I get through to Paypal.

No, it's just parsing and uploading the data to my website and the links then lets everyone see the logs.

(But check your PMs...)

I didn't mean the separate checkout was the mistake, I meant the missing remove/wishlist links was the mistake.

Sorry, I wasn't clear. I believe the missing remove/wishlist is not a mistake.

Not new. Just not on the list. Seen it probably twice before, but I've been here about 6 hours
Posted March 22, 2016
Are there any new games in the rotation yet?

It is on the list. For some reason it's under The Incredible, not under Van.

How is Recettear? I read that it's super grindy and no mods exist to fix that :\
