20% off coupon?

from Stardock Forums

In addition, next week we will be sending out a second coupon that will give users 20% off of any game or application on Impulse.

During the week of the 50% off Demigod coupon, the above was indicated in the same email.  I'm wondering if this is going to come to fruition or not.  I've received no further emails with this indication and have been waiting eagerly.

Good point, I'd almost forgotten about that. I was thinking about using it towards a Galactic Civ purchase.

Sadly I was at the lake this weekend. When I checked my e-mail this morning and tried to use the coupon it had already expired...:'(

A bit more notice or longer lasting code would have been nice.

48 hours is a bit short for a coupon.

Tell me about it...

20% Coupons suck

Coupon Expires today yet invalid already?

How do I remove a coupon?

Sorry, The coupon you entered is either invalid or has expired

Mine worked fine, but I got to it early and I triple checked to make sure I was applying it correctly to the game I wanted.  The coupon does have an advantage over, say, a sale weekend in that you can choose what game or app you want to apply it to.  But the fact that this is not a weekly phenomenon like the weekend deals and giving very little notice about when it was going to be released was probably its greatest downfall.  For those who are not constantly checking the website, email, or simply not available during the time offered, it's basically moot.  But on the plus side, Stardock is good about listening to their customers and changing their behaviors based on lessons learned.  I wouldnt be surprised if a second set of coupons would be sent out to "make up" for these issues with more notice in the near future.  I do hope they give more of a time frame of say a week to use them.  I guess all we can do is keep watching the site and checking our email while hoping for the best.

I would have used mine, but alas like some others the email arrived just too late (time zone difference perhaps). It had already expired by the time I read the happy tidings.
