Don't worry everypony. If this is anything like the last wootoff, you will have a few more opportunities. Last woot-off, I snagged mine right before the flying monkey showed up.

I just grabbed one of the 500 that went up, good job woot!

They usually sell around 2500 Bunnies Ogling Carrots, so with any luck, there will be more chances for other wooters to get one!

I don't think I've ever seen

sell out so quickly in all my wooting.

Got my code in, clicked through 1-2-3 the fastest I've ever gone through. After the processing page sat for about 2 minutes, it finally resolved to say "your order is NOT in." What the heck...

Bouts of Consternation:
8/17/11; 9/14/11; 10/12/11; 11/09/11, 12/06/11; 4/26/12

And right now.

Wow. That was probably one of the fastest sellouts I've seen and it went smooth. Was able to snag one using ninja credit code typing skills. The processing probably hung for about 1-3 minutes, but went through finally. Who knows because it always feels like an eternity.

Got one!

Did woot get new servers that was the fastest ever I think! Learned a valuable lesson last time always sign in then wait. But man that was fast even on the sloooow network (read firewall) at work.

Order denied. Probably good, considering I still have a huge box of crap from last time (anyone want a Foot Flush or some baby toys?).

With only 500 sold, I predict more bags on the horizon. Maybe this will be more than a one day woot-off with a bag every day.

Timing is everything - especially when wOOting!

While I am sad I didn't get a Bunnies Ogling Carrots I am incredibly happy that Woot now has a much heartier backend.

Ok......I really need a new routine. I come home, crap, and almost every time, miss securing more crap. Well, off to make more of my own....

WOW I got a new CC and didn't type in my security code so had to when it rejected my purchase :facepalm:

Now it's been processing for like 5 minutes...safe to say I missed out on this one.

If it's frozen on processing I'm going to guess it got hung and the order was denied...but I don't dare to exit the tab.

Agreed. I was nearly fooled too until I saw my post.

1610 in 30 seconds. No meltdown. Wow!

For years we've been asking them to upgrade their servers to handle the crushing load of the Bunnies Ogling Carrots rush, and it looks like they finally did.

And I missed out, but it was my own fault...

Last Woot I bought, it was a couple camcorders for a not-for-profit I run as a volunteer. I used the company card to buy the cameras. Forgot to switch back to my own VISA afterwards on the account.

Noticed it when I got to the order page. Expecting at least 3-5 minutes, I went to get my wallet & put in the right card #. When I got back, it sold out.

I could'a been a contender. Now I'm nuthin. Just a bum...

If you are referring to bots, you have to remember there are tons of people after this. Look how many pages there are in this thread now.

As for garbage software, I used Wootalyzer and scored it.

I got through right away and then got a message that said something is wrong you can only order one. All I did was hit the buy button there were no other choices...???

Im honestly surprised that the servers didnt crap out like they always do when a Bunnies Ogling Carrots hits. I managed to get one and it went smooth as a normal transaction!

Finally - the drought is over. Haven't gotten a Bunnies Ogling Carrots since January, 2010. Fastest server ever, got the buy page, put in my credit card code, hit the button one more time, then got the 'order processing' screen and thought I was gonna get screwed but it finally went through. Maybe the server overload problems are finally behind us?

Random Crap x 6 plus a ton of other quality spontaneous purchases.

Ok, I got a tent last time, I could really use one of those tablets you guys have been selling lately.

Or a roomba!

Or a letter.

Use a tracker like Wootalyzer.

The more you refresh, the worse you are actually making it.

I agree on the "no meltdown" part of it. That's the fastest I've ever seen it go to the next item. but page 1 only says 501 sold.

I still have a window that says my order is processing, but I think it's just stringing me along.

I clicked on the Woot Blog for no more than 2 minutes and came back to find a sold out Bunnies Ogling Carrots Amazingly bad luck; my dry spell continues.

My "Order is processing" went on and on and on . . . .

Made it through the other screens with no hang-ups.

Account does not show that I have a Bunnies Ogling Carrots and no confirmation email.

so it went down from 1000+ to 500. A lot of denial emails must be going out.
