Mount and Blade is expired, but Eadro Genesis, Eschalon Book I, and Neverwiner Nights Diamond all appear to still be valid.

We'll just take that code and give it the ol' flusharoo

No! Just offer to trade it for a brand new AAA game in a trading thread. People will be sure to look favorably on such an offer!

For a while, codes for the free games did actually have some kind of novelty value, as GOG stopped allowing free games to be gift-wrapped (they were immediately added to your account when clicking on purchase, instead of going through the purchase process where the choice of making a gift code is made), while codes created before the change could still be redeemed. Eventually they reversed that decision, and codes could then be made again, removing that curiosity.

It is all around better if those mass giveaway codes do expire sometimes (after 1-5 weeks) but please really try to be upfront about it with expiration time clearly stated. GOG's apology is hereby accepted on my part.

This is good news for my Constructor Classic giveaway code.
If anyone wants it, PM me before the 17th (or preferably earlier, with the chat notification system being broken, I might not notice there's incoming chats).

So anyone knows if saints row 2 will stay as never expired? Meaning it won't expire when i check it back after a month or more.
Gave away both eador:genesis and mount and blade since they expire.

We're looking into The Constructor codes to fix it. Thanks for reporting.

GOG's apology is hereby accepted on my part. Yes, we'll state clearly from now on when exactly the code is going to expire.
Yes, we're aware of the bug on the redeem page saying the code will never expire. We're fixing it, but it will take a bit more time. And we didn't want to keep you waiting with the expired codes.
