GOG, you just shut down Insomnia as it was in the home stretch of round 3.

Did this happen intentionally? Was there some kind of massive problem on the site?

I know you're generally not big on cluing people in on the nuts and bolts of things, but you've got people who've been burning time to get ahold of the items that just got pulled.
You've got people who wanted to see it through to the end, no matter how long it took.

We're all blowing in the frigging wind at this point.

If you were going to put a time limit on Insomnia, why didn't you say so, especially in light of your own words -

"Insomnia mercilessly goes on, day and night, until every single unit is gone "

A response would be hugely appreciated.

Indeed. Why no warning at all? If it was made on purpose and not by error, it wasn't very fair to customers.

Right. The whole premise is to be willing to wait and suffer through slow items in order to get to what you want.
It's kind of a cornerstone to the entire Insomnia concept.

But, you have to respect people spending their time just for a chance to spend their money on the items, not pull the plug with zero warning or comment.
Yes, please give some kind of answer. I was waiting on my last chance to get Banner Saga, but you took it from me GOG. why?... :'(
Maybe they got tired of twitching endlessly and wanted to get a rest and hit the "stop sales" by mistake. Anyway, wasn't the sale supposed to last only until previous Friday?

They stated themselves that Insomnia goes on until the last item is sold. What I put at the top of the page in bold quotes is a direct line from their official thread.
I was clicking "buy now" when it disappeared, too. Ah well, I'm half asleep, it's probably for the best! I've already got quite a backlog to tackle. :)

Still, a notification would have been nice.

Damm that sucks it just stopped like that sounds like a glitch or did they set a timer so that when it reached a certain time it just well stopped.

No clue. No one from GOG is saying a word on the subject.

Workday has just begun in Poland so it shouldn't be long before Judas or Ciris comes by.
I blame Keane.
I think they realized it was taking too long and they didn't want it going any longer. 7 days for Insomnia is a lot

It is all your fault for not buying enough games. You should feel bad!
Steam hacked GOG!!!
