heheheh, indeed. Hmm... I wonder if pixel is ready to post yet. It's past delivery time, I'm at the edge of my seat to see what he received.

He already said that the guy who scheduled the delivery said it was a TV.

I know, but I have reasoning behind my statement XD. Besides I prefer to see hard evidence. Because this is woot after all.

It could be that maybe 3 TVs have been sent. Or maybe I'm just hoping for the best? lol

Maybe pixel hasn't posted yet cause he is busy with a tv news crew filming him with the Ken head for the night news. haha

monidel wrote:Oh screw it. I got a note in my box that had my crap in it that said that my 3rd crap wouldn't fit in the box. A delivery co. called yesterday and said they were delivering it today. I didn't know I had to let the whole woot community know that a delivery co. called me. Anyway, I got the TV today believe it or not because I can't figure out how to post a picture from Webshots because that is the only place I put it on the web. So excuse me for not being so savvy as to know how to post a picture. Excuse me while I go read my manual on my new 61 inch TV. And yes I have a picture of the note too but like I said............ I don't know how to post it!!!

WT Heck....now I'm mad.

Wow, I just read 50 or so pages of this post instead of studying for my test tomorrow and I feel like I have been left hanging! Someone pleeease find out if pixel and cutie got a tv or large head :-p

It's almost like a soap opera. Go Woot!

I have a feeling pixel did what you had asked the other day and held off telling what he received not to spoil anything for you. Would have been nice if he let us know he wasn't going to post last night though. Would have saved me a lot of time spent checking for his message. Oh well are you going to post today what you receive at your parents home? Its your choice to post or not today just please give us the courtesy of letting us know so we don't waste our time coming back and forth checking.

dsreid wrote:Ok, so you think that since I only have 5 posts I am a noob? I have checked woot at 12:00AM for probably the past year, missing only a couple times. I choose not to usually post in the forums. If i was a noob, how would I get to reading this post, on page 73 of Random Crap from 3 weeks ago. I also do play my 360 a lot, using this in halo would be great. Normal business policy is first come first serve. I would give you 5+ shipping if thats what you wanted. But if you reason that being a "noob" by me not posting is a reason to sell to the other guy, go ahead.

I whole-heartedly apologize for the "noob" comment. You indeed have more Woots than I (I am ashamed!) and also joined a month earlier. And probably half the reason I have more posts than you is because I come on the forums to complain about not getting a Bandolier of Carrots cause of servers jams. *chuckles* Anyways, cheers to you and apologies. Ignore the ramblings of a drunken wooter! :-)

I will be posting today (my freight package has just been scanned this morning at 4am so the city it's in is only 20 minutes away from my house), and I'm not sure about pixel's post (but he did tell me what he got last night). So unless he's joking around with me, I'm pretty sure you'll see his post soon as well. I will also say this. I've known what my 3rd crap was since yesterday morning XD (the person at the shipping company told me and I didn't even ask her.. lol). Just keeping it under wraps until I have hard evidence and know for sure what it is.

Glad the shipping co. told you. The suspense must have almost been too much all these days. Looking forward to seeing both of the 3rd craps.

just wanted to post before everyone got their final craps and this message thread dies.

I missed out on the Braille on Cookiesthis time around, but I thoroughly enjoyed--as did my whole family--waiting in suspense for these three final craps, with all the concomitant speculation and such. It's hard to find for-pay entertainment of such high quality these days (unless you count albino lap dancing, but who does?). Congrats to our lucky winners and to all who got their bags, and thanks for the the long cool trip we've been on, and thanks for Woot for being fun while taking our money.

Where's the final Bandolier of Carrots chart?

I am a NUB to all of this how do u even order

Methinks that thou art a liar! You claim to be a "NUB" and yet you have arrived at page SEVENTY FOUR of a forum! Coincedence?

Also, your spelling of NOOB is incorrect or at the very least dated. A search of "Nub" reveals the following interesting definitions from the Urban Dictionary.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4. Nub

someone who does not have an arm or leg, instead having a little nub.

Bethany hamilton is/ has a nub
"people like to pet my nub, i dont mind"

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5. Nub

Typically a man of African American decent who has lost an extremity due to a cork fight accident. After these men suffer such horrible injuries they are forced to work at a Taco bell with their little stumps or otherwise known as Nubs. As the studies from Arlington Heights Nuby study center shows these men almost always work the cash register and when handed crumpled up bills these men slap the money against their little stumps or commonly known as nubs.

"Oh my god Daniel did you see that mans nub"
"HAHAH he has a nub"
"Wes wishes he became a Nub from a cockfight"
" Ricky Can't be in cork fights because of a certain reason, pertaining to the issue of having a cork"
" Myles wanker is a nub, think of an asians penis"

If you look a few (ok a lot of) pages back, he said he was going to stop making the chart because it was getting too long or something

Oh, here it is

It served its purpose though -- the items that they had a lot of are obvious, and the rest is completely random and unpredictable. Sometimes even incomprehensible, or unexplainable, or hazardous materials even ...

Just gotta second this statement from defib. It's been a great ride. My wife thought I was crazy until I showed her the pic of monidel's oh-so-splendid crap. It has been most entertaining to see the posts.

I also must say that I have spent time on alot of forums and the woot community is the best! Everyone is so polite and friendly. Thanks to all for making this such a great place to hang out.

Well it's official.. Just got off the phone with my dad,

61" Infocus ScreenPlay TV. :O

I'll post pictures when I get then, <3 woot.

Thank you, and froogle values the TV around $2,500. But there's no doubt I'm keeping it. It will be something to remember woot by. I think I'm going to frame the note I got as well XD.

Well by the thunder comment I think he probably ended up with a tv like you. If he had received that big head it would be more like a tropical storm not so pleasant. No sorry necessary I just thought I'd catch you off guard with the secret. Guess your parents are thrilled to have custody of that 61" tv.

<sigh> With all this excitement, more wootpeeps will hop on the wootwagon, thus making the bucket of chicken that much more challenging.

Rest now, fellow wooters.

On second thought, stay up, be very tired. For you know not when the b o' c shall come!

terrybatey wrote:Well by the thunder comment I think he probably ended up with a tv like you. If he had received that big head it would be more like a tropical storm not so pleasant.

How do you know? Pixel and I actually talked about cool plans for the giant head. There are many things you can do with it. He had some good ideas as well.

magwheels wrote:<sigh> With all this excitement, more wootpeeps will hop on the wootwagon, thus making the bucket of chicken that much more challenging.

There is a Digg article on the girl who got the TV earlier in this thread. It was digged 1666 times. So you can be there will be an influx =/

Good for woot, bad for our chances.

Thanks again woot!

EDIT: Sorry about the time stamp, just realized it. We changed the batteries and never reset it XD.

Very Nice looking, but kinda takes over your house I see...I guess thats what 61" TV's do.... Congrats!

Now thats a tv, congrats again. By the way have you spoken to pixel today wondering where his post is. Hope he is ok.

I saw on CNN that A man in Missouri was found uncoscious under a giant foam head, he apparently was trying to mount it to the roof of his car for use in promoting teh new Jeopardy show in St. Louis.
