Deals so good, you won't want to fall asleep.
You remember back when you used to walk into a store, browse the shelves, pick out a game, and then buy it--all in the actual real world? We don't know about you, but most of us at GOG.com have had our limbs atrophy to small vestigial nubbins since all of our shopping happens online these days. Of course, one thing that sometimes happens in real world stores with real world goods--particularly when they have a good sale--is that they run out of stock. Usually that means that the deal was so good that they couldn't keep up with demand.

Well, in the digital realm, this is usually pretty rare. How do you run out of stock on digital games, short of entropy devouring the universe? Well, we have gotten 101 games that will be on sale on the front page of GOG.com, but the discounts are so high at the moment that we can't just sell an unlimited number of copies of these games: we are only able to sell a few at these discounts--up to 80% off--and once they're gone, they're gone.

So what games will be on sale in our Insomnia promo? Bestselling classics and new games alike. There will also occasionally be some free games in super limited numbers (like, 20 or 30 copies)--if you're fast enough on the trigger finger to pick 'em up, that is. The deal will run from now until we're out of "stock" of games for the sale, and games may show up more than once. So it's time to bathe in a tub of coffee*, dip some espresso**, snort an energy drink***, or do whatever else it takes to stay up so you don't miss out on the best deals on fantastic games on GOG.com since summer.
*This is probably not a good idea
**This is definitely not a good idea
***This is totally safe, though****
****NO IT'S NOT WHAT ARE YOU DOING YOU CRAZY PERSON

Of course we will manage that :D
Indeed, we may have gotten complacent and assumed another Insomnia was a fait accompli. Now it appears we will have to actively fight for that which we love. :)
And speaking of fighting, here's another bump. Why? Because Insomnia is the best sale experience I've ever had on this site.

Come on people, it's not Jack's fault there was no Insomnia Promo! Show him the love he deserves!

We most certainly could use an Insomnia type sale for Christmas, after this strong sleeping pill called Big Fall Sale that GOG gave us. Don't think I'll survive a Winter Sale in the vein of this one.
People, please explain this to me, are you really buying a ton of multiple copies of JK? Why!?

Agreed. Not to mention, there isn't a connection with the sale (aside from wanting that timer to die in a fire after being beaten into a heap with lead pipes). Have to provide a setting where people connect, otherwise it's nothing more than "that one sale where I bought some stuff that one time".

Um....because those all need to be purchased before everyone can start buying 18 year old soccer games and randomly gifting them to forum-goers? =)

What do you mean it's just a game? I can clearly see over 100 gift codes for Jack in my account.

Likewise. Only with another zero at the end. All that double matching catches up with one...
